Hey, don't panic. Yet. :)

Are you using the hybrid ircd? I think it's one of the popular ones.
http://www.ircd-hybrid.net/
I installed it straightforwardly a few weeks ago:
./configure, make, make install.
ISTR I had to edit the ircd.conf (in /usr/local/ircd ?),
basically I just commented out some things and left the
others default (though you'll want to edit some like admin email).
