Link question

[FNdanielNL]

What i try is the fellowing but it doesnt seems to work:

server1 (leaf)
| server2 (leaf)
| |
HUB server

If you understand i want to use the HUB Server to link all other servers to. But it comes whit this:

*** LocOps -- Link eu.hub cancelled, is Non-Hub but introduced Leaf irc.domein.com

And closes all linked servers

server1 and server2 are both leave and the HUB server has only the hub lines

You have probably reversed the leaf and hub flags in your link blocks

[FNdanielNL]

I dont understand it at all anymore because i thougt there must always be 1 leaf and 1 hub. But what i now have is:

Code: Select all

server1 (hub)        server2 (hub)
      \                 /
       \               /
         eu.hub (hub)

so all servers are hub but it seems to work

If a server is to accept incoming links it must be compiled as a hub.

If the link block is on a leaf and is for a server that other servers link to you use the hub param in the link block.

If the link block is on a hub for a server link where the server linking will NOT have any other servers linked to it then you can use the leaf param.

For example with the map A<->B<->C where B is the hub, B would have leaf *; in its link blocks for C and A, on A and C, for their link block for B, they would have hub *;

If you want you hub to be able to /connect to the leaf's they have to be compiled with hub support. If they arnt they have to connect to the hub (which obviously has to be compiled with hub support).
