unknown directive Times

Post by fluid »

Is this because our linked servers time clocks are different?
They must be set exactly the same??

[08:37] -myip- *** Notice -- Loading IRCd configuration ..

[08:37] -myip- *** Notice -- unrealircd.conf:1: Ignoring extra data
-
[08:37] -myip- *** Notice -- unrealircd.conf:1: unknown directive Times
-
[08:37] -myip- *** Notice -- Configuration loaded without any problems ..


Thanks.

looks like you have a mistake in your conf file.

That's telling you that you have somethign extra.
I would suspect that you have an extra }; somewhere and what is following is the "extra" data, the time directive is the server trying to read a configuration paramater that it does not know (it's trying to use "time" as a paramater, it does not exist, so is ignoring it) . The output should tell you what line those are found at, look just above it in your conf file for the errors.

Try searching the config file for "Times" and when you find it make your way up from it line by line til you find the error .

As already stated this will be caused by the extra }; . These errors can be a pain to find but until its gone then it wont work correctly .

As for the times your server clocks need to be synched or again problems will arise.
Yawn. So there's yet another "if the user clicks the button, they're infected" exploit. Why is this news? We already know users are idiots.

Simple solution:
Remove line 1, which you say containts "Times new roman;/*" (duh)

Looks like someone "accidentally" saved their conf as an RTF file... :P
