hi. syzop said /var/log/messages, not message. but this depends on your system, you should just look around in /var/log/ logs can be like: syslog messages dmesg try to search something there. one more thing to add: try: https://www.unrealircd.org/docs/Snomasks add +ej for yourself (/mode <yournick> ...

you can follow it under the url above.

are their hosts the same?

hello. yes, we does know that. you should follow the instructions. in other hand: on localhost, you dont need to set up ssl, especially since atheme does not support it. see in the config file, they mention it explicit. help from ircd side: https://www.unrealircd.org/docs/Tutorial:_Linking_servers h...

google wont turn to your dns server.. if you have no domain or cant edit dns records then it wont work. but you can use the ip and register free domains if you want.

/operserv identify <- what does that mean? unrealircd offers: /oper <login> <password> anope offers: /operserv login the above section you have copied if for the ircd. so when you connect to the network you should do the following: 1, identify your nick against nickserv. /ns identify <pw> 2, oper up...

hideserver gives more lines than it should give. like you can set to hide all your servers, but the one which you are on will always be there. so /links will always work, but will give you the warning/msg that you are not allowed to see this. use what dontcry suggested. :) restric-commands are easie...

" in the config file you mean? "

maybe you started it already once? i mean can you just do a
$ ps -ef | grep unreal
and
$ netstat -anp | grep LISTEN | egrep "6900|6697"

in your panel? what? vps panels are only setting rdns.. or at least thats what i know. but.. the problem here is that the domain is not resolved by the dns servers, cuz i think its not set. this needs to be done via the domain settings (like the provider who he registered the domain with.. they usua...

did you set the "irc.servername.com" domain to point to your server's ip?

are you sure that the ulines are set correctly?
also, if you have multiple servers.. is it set on all of them?
