Allow block Server Password - Suddenly stopped working? :|
Allow block Server Password - Suddenly stopped working? :|
Hi folks, this is hopefully something I've simply overlooked, but I can't seem to figure it out.
Quite simply, I have a server password set up in my clients allow block, as the server is web-based. All has been working fine for the last week. However for reasons I cann't yet explain, the password it now ineffective. No Password mismatch errors, no /pass requirement - nothing
I don't see any reason why it would stop, I have not altered the unrealircd.conf in any way since it was working.
I don't think posting my allow bock is of any use, it's exactly as you'd expect.
Any ideas where to start looking for a possible solution?

There are 2 allow blocks -
Just to be on the safe side, I tried it without the scrawl block, but it made no difference.
Code: Select all
allow {
ip *@*;
hostname *@*;
class clients;
password "******";
maxperip 3;
};
allow {
ip *@*;
hostname [email protected];
class clients;
maxperip 1;
};
In theory the *@* for the ip value will match everyone in the lower allow block. Also it is worh noting that the scrawl bots from SearchIRC use varying ident's so you will need to use *@data.searchirc.org
The documentation says the allow blocks ip or host values matching works on a one of the other per allow block. So it may be neccesary to set the ip value of the second allow block to somthing specific such as the IP that scrawl bots connect from which is "72.64.145.20" if I am not mistaken, although they do say that changes from time to time.

allow {
ip 72.64.145.20;
hostname *@data.searchirc.org;
class clients;
maxperip 1;
};
Is there something else that would directly influence the ability to connect to a port without requiring to supply the password?
ok look at this
now this is another ip ,... when i tried this one its working, asking for pass ... any idea ?
this was suppose to ask for pass any one from charter.com, but its not doing soallow {
ip *@*.charter.com;
hostname *@*;
class clients;
password "banglacafe";
maxperip 10;
};
so tried to do it by ip.... same not workingallow {
ip *@24.*;
hostname *@*;
class clients;
password "banglacafe";
maxperip 10;
};
this one aint working aswellallow {
ip *@24.*;
hostname *@24.*;
class clients;
password "banglacafe";
maxperip 10;
};
allow {
ip *@64.251*;
hostname *@64.251.*;
class clients;
password "banglacafe";
maxperip 10;
};
now this is another ip ,... when i tried this one its working, asking for pass ... any idea ?

never mind solved it... docs really rocks :p
loll anyways any one tried these optional options in allow blocks ?
oh one more thing .... is it posible to let the users to know the server password when they will see that a password is needed ? becoz few ip's should be banned coz most proxies r from them ( like comcast ) but since a good number of users comes from there so theyactually cant be banned .... domain wise. so i was trying to use this way.

allow {

hostname <user@host-connection-mask>;
class <connection-class>;
password <connection-password> { <auth-type>; };
maxperip <max-connections-per-ip>;
redirect-server <server-to-forward-to>;
redirect-port <port-to-forward-to>;
options {
<option>;
<option>;
...
};
};
