Everything is installed, but not connections

Post by p_a_t_c_h »

My IRCd is working, up running and configured. I can connect because I am on the local host but no one else can. I have lowerd Firewalls, Virus blockers, allowed connections manualy, and no one else can connect to me. I run the windows version. If you could help, thank you very much.

Code: Select all

/*
 * NEW: listen {}
 * OLD: P:Line
 * This defines a port for the ircd to bind to, to
 * allow users/servers to connect to the server. 
 * Syntax is as follows:
 * listen (ip number):(port number) 
 * { 
 *   options {
 *     (options here);
 *   };
 * };
 * or for a plain
 * listen: listen (ip):(port);
 * 
 * NOTICE: for ipv6 ips (3ffe:b80:2:51d::2 etc), use listen [ip]:port;
 * 
 * That works also.
 */

/* Options for listen:
	OLD	| 	NEW
	S		serversonly
	C		clientsonly
	J		java
	s		ssl
	*		standard
*/

/* NOTE ON SSL PORTS: SSL ports are pretty non-standardized,
 * besides numerous high-SSL ports, some people say you should run
 * it at 994 because that's the official SSL port.. but that
 * requires root! Besides, port 194 is the official irc port and
 * have you ever seen an ircd running on that?
 * So, our suggestion is to use port 6697 for SSL, this is used by
 * quite some networks and is recognized by for example StunTour.
 * You are free to open up as many SSL ports as you want, but
 * by (also) using 6697 you help the world standardize a bit ;).
 */


listen         *:8067;
listen         *:6667;

/* NOTE: If you are on an IRCd shell with multiple IP's you are
 *       likely to get 'Address already in use' errors in your log
 *       and the ircd won't start. This means you MUST bind
 *       to a specific IP instead of '*', so for example:
 *       listen 1.2.3.4:6667;
 *       Obviously, replace the IP with the IP that was assigned to you.
 */
It is probably wrong, if you could tell me what wrong I will fix it. Then post the link to it so some one can tell me if it works.

PS. Dukat, that info doesn't help much. All I have is a hub and firewall and all that has been done, allowing ports and what not.

If you have a router i bet you port forward :P

Also if you're on a router, make sure you're using the right IP, not your local one. http://www.whatismyip.com/
