ping frequency

Post by TrueNoir »

Hello,

I've setup the Unreal IRCd 3.2.3 on an older linux machine (Kernel 2.4.25-040218). I set in the config file for clients "pingfreq 180;"
But when I connect to the IRC server I got all 15 seconds a Ping request (logged with Ethereal on my home-pc (Win 2k SP4)).

How can I rise the frequency up to 3 minuts or so?

Thanks
TrueNoir

PS: Sorry for my english :)

ping frequency is set by the class.. when you changed the frequency, did you change it for the proper class?
Never argue with an idiot. They will bring you down to their level, then beat you with experience.

From my config-file:

Code: Select all

class clients {
        pingfreq 180;
        maxclients 500;
        recvq 4000;
        sendq 100000;

};

If you're using mirc, try using:
/debug @d
and make sure it's the IRCD sending you a PING. You might be seeing your client sending a PING out or some other application. I've never used ethereal or whatever, so I don't know... but I haven't had any kind of problem before ;p

I got following output:

Code: Select all

-> irc.21p.de ping 700185
<- :irc.21p.de PONG irc.21p.de :700185
-> irc.21p.de ping 715185
<- :irc.21p.de PONG irc.21p.de :715185
-> irc.21p.de ping 730185
<- :irc.21p.de PONG irc.21p.de :730185
Does it mean that mIRC (Polaris X) is sending the Ping?

Your client is sending the pings, so you'll have to configure it to send them less frequently (or not at all).
