Cant Connect, something about "Password mismatch"

When anyone connects they get the following

Code: Select all

* Connecting to irc.wastedbot.com (6667)
-irc.wastedbot.com- *** Looking up your hostname...
-irc.wastedbot.com- *** Found your hostname (cached)
 —› error: Closing Link: Coolmarve[ip.here.pls] (Password mismatch)
* Disconnected
I looked through my config and cant find anything that fixes it
I think it may have to do with the following part fo config but changing anything doesnt help

Code: Select all

allow {
ip *@*;
hostname *@*;
class clients;
maxperip 5;
};

allow {
ip *@255.255.255.255;
hostname *@*.passworded.ugly.people;
class clients;
password "passwordhere";
maxperip 1;
};
Im really confused :\ all i want to do is have my irc work without having ot put it any passwords to connect, im not trying to make it be password protected

Read the documentation about allow blocks: http://www.vulnscan.org/UnrealIRCd/unre ... allowblock
Or even better, read the whole documentation... :D


Anyway: If you don't want to use a password, remove the complete second allow block (the one with the password).

Also, change the limit in your first block:

maxperip 5; <-- make it at least 128 or more

Why in the world would you want to allow 128 connections from the same IP?!?!

*whew* .. I was hoping so ... I would think that anyone could catch "max per ip" :D
