Host will not resolve

[Alex]

Hello,

One of my ops can not for some reason not login to the server with Hostmask. It shows up like this: [email protected]

We have tried all possible ways to fix it but we can' make it, so he can't oper up.
Is it anyone here that know a way how to resolve this problem We have checked Localhost and that server is checked but nothing helps.

Thanks

I think you should change the set::hosts::host-on-oper-up from no to yes in your unrealircd.conf under set:line..

Example codes:

Code: Select all

hosts {
	local		"locop.domain.org";
	global		"ircop.domain.org";
	coadmin		"coadmin.domain.org";
	admin		"admin.domain.org";
	servicesadmin 	"csops.domain.org";
	netadmin 	"netadmin.domain.org";
	host-on-oper-up "yes";
};

We have tried all possible ways to fix it but we can' make it, so he can't oper up.

Check either your O:Line's username and password is correct or wrong. Both O:Line's username and password are case-sensitive.

oper::hostmask does NOT assign a virtual host for your oper. It lists the hostmasks from where the oper is allowed to login from. For example, if his ISP is AOL, you can use userhost { *@*.aol.com; };

[Alex]

His host is set right in the operblock like this:

Code: Select all

@*.client.insightbb.com

So that isn't the problem, but the following message comes up each time he try to oper up because his host wont resolve:

Code: Select all

*** Notice -- Failed OPER attempt by opername([email protected]) [host doesnt match]

Thanks.

You can for his O:Line use:

Code: Select all

from {
	userhost *@xx.xx.*;
};

Where xx.xx are the first two parts of his IP instead of using the hostname.

Or to be more restrictive you could use:

Code: Select all

from {
	userhost *@xx.xx.xx.*;
};

Thank you Jobe1986. I tried with:

userhost *@xx.xx.*;

and that worked.
When I tried with:

Code: Select all

userhost *@xx.xx.xx*;

I got the following message: No O-Line for your host.

So, I'm not sure if it works only with the two first parts of the IP only.

Thanks

You missed the period between xx and *
This:

Code: Select all

userhost *@xx.xx.xx*;

should be:

Code: Select all

userhost *@xx.xx.xx.*;

Thank you again Jobe1986. Yes, I had missed the . but now fixed and it works excellent.

Thanks
