mIRC? You talking about Internet Relay Chat?
Old-skool EFNET represent! 
ETA: something like this?

Either 1200/9600 baud packet or Broadband Hamnet.

I know it is "possible" I have played with some of the ideas myself. Usability might have to change a little like limiting scroll back.
I really wanted to get Danny's Digital Packet to work for something like this so that you wouldn't need external hardware such as a TNC. |

You could do it with AX.25 but it would probably be better to write a purpose-built chat application, or just have your TNC display all packets and just watch what people type.
Is there a specific application you have in mind? |

In theory you could run a IRC server on a Broadband-Hamnet network. I don't think gating it to the internet and efnet, undernet, etc, would be kosher though.
There are a number of freeware IRC servers for windows and linux out there. SI, former chanop on EFNET #30plus |

So what you are saying is you can do IRC over wifi? You can do IRC over any TCP/IP network, provided there isn't any port blocking in effect on any routers or firewalls. I wouldn't want to try multiple servers like EFNET or the others run, but single server and some clients should run OK. |

Well I have used it on over HF once before I didn't set any of it up so I don't know whte specifics used the mIRC program on windows XP.
I'm assuming it possible to set up a network of computers using mIRC that never touches the itnernet. |

Every week a few of us on this forum get together on 7.112MHz and have a keyboard to keyboard chat. The net covers all of the US. You can use the same thing to transfer pictures and files. |

You're starting to sound like the two castle guards in Monty Python and the Holy Grail.
From provided link: •Do NOT change the SSID unless you are an expert and understand that you will be creating an entirely different mesh network when you do so |

Pretty simple to do a basic keyboard to keyboard chat on packet. Welcome to 1992.

GCCS mostly from what I recall, but it's been a few years since I really worked on that particular system. |

Not a HAM, so maybe there's some regulations I'm not aware of. There are some rules. I think it is a grey area in today's world due to the fact of "encryption". In the 80-90s there were networks that tied packet radio into the internet. Most of that is gone. Today we have a system called APRS (civilian blue force tracker) it is possible to send an email over that network and it hit a gateway and be delivered over the internet. mIRC oR Transverse or maco or whatever the flavor of the month is as a chat client is easy on mil radios. The new 117g has a built-in modem. There is also the part where we are limited to speeds and bandwidth and have technology that is far behind. |

Regarding linking a ham rin rf linked irc server to efnet or undernet,
Bandwidth would be stressed Control op is responsible for ALL traffic through their station. You gonna unleash the zoo that is #sex on the airwaves? Let me know what your letter of enforcement says when it arrives. Edited for cursed touchscreen leyboard. Sometimes I miss my old slider phone with real hardware!. |

Eventually I would like to provide IRC, PBX, and an email server. But that may require more than one pi.

You would probably be better served by a smartphone with a data plan and an irc client loaded. Since the op doesn't mention a usage scenario, I'm not seeing anything that of the shelf stuff couldn't accomplish.
