Okay, maybe I should split this into the questions which I need answers to.

1. Do I direct my dynamic DNS to my numeric IP address?
2. Where in the unrealircd.conf do I determine the nameserver, if there is anywhere apart from dns::nameserver?
3. If I have no nameserver, does that mean that nobody ...

It says, "::set::dns::nameserver... (my.dns.thing) is not a valid IP"
I thought the DNS went in there. I got one and set it to redirect to my IP. Although this may not affect my problem, I have another question...Am I supposed to point it to my IP?

...Help?

Er...That didn't actually help me. All it did was confirm I have a problem. So...How do I fix it? -.o

Hey, I'm back with another stupid problem.

When I connect, the server can't resolve my hostname and uses my IP address instead. Is this an error which will apply to everybody, and if so, how can I fix it? I don't have a problem with any other server I connect to.

Hey, I've downloaded UnrealIRCd version 3.2.1, and I've made my unreadircd.conf and all of that - Except I can't start UnrealIRCd because the system can't find DBGhelp.dll. It seemed to download the file when I downloaded the Unreal program itself, is it hidden away somewhere in the wrong directory ...

I'm trying to connect to my server. Do I need an actual domain and webspace for it? As in, a host for the server as you would need bandwidth and hosting for a website? Right now, I've put it as irc.storm.realm.. I don't know if I need to link it to a domain.

Also, if irc.storm.realm IS valid, then ...

Okay, thanks, sorry about that, I seemed very n00bish.

I've made my server on UnrealIRCd, but.. How do I connect to it? Where is it? I have the program mIRC, can I connect with that? How do I log on to my server?!

Also.. What's the name of the server? What do I have to connect to, and how can I change that?
