Linking probelms.

[|nSaNe]

I have checked the manual, but cant see why I am getting this problem.

I am sure someone will point out it is there, but I cant find it..

I have been trying to get this to link sinse last night, and a now asking for help... so if anyone can help me out it would be great.

When I try and force the connect

/Connect

I get this error

Connect: Server WolfDK is not configured for linking

I cant figure out wy the damned thing is not trying to connect at all.

Code: Select all

-- snip by moderator--
/*
 * NEW: link {}
 * OLD: C/N:Lines
 * This defines an okay for a server connection.
 * NOTE: BOTH SERVERS NEED A LINK {} SETTING TO CONNECT PROPERLY!
 * Syntax is as follows:

 *	port		(port to connect to, if any);
 *	hub (If this is a hub, * works, or servermasks it may bring in);
 *	[or leaf *;]
 *	password-connect "(pass to send)";
 *	password-receive "(pass we should receive)";
 *	class		(class to direct servers into);
 *	options {

 *

	password-receive "sysm4n80";

			autoconnect;
			ssl;
		};
};
*/

I have removed the O:lines.


I used to do this with ease th the old config file


any help is apreciated.

Please read the whole example configuration file...

Code: Select all

/* Type of comments */
#Comment type 1 (Shell type)
// Comment type 2(C++ style)
/* Comment type 3 (C Style) */
#those lines are ignored by the ircd.

Your link block is commented out

Code: Select all

/*
link            WolfDK{
	username	*;
	hostname 	83.151.136.182;
	bind-ip 	*;
	port 		7029;
	hub             *;
	password-connect "sysm4n80";
	password-receive "sysm4n80";
	class           servers;
		options {
			/* Note: You should not use autoconnect when linking
			 * services
			 */
			autoconnect;
			ssl;
		};
};
*/

Uncomment it and it should work.

not to mention link::block should be something.yourdomain.tld.

and side note, probably not a good idea to post the entire configuration file it slows down load time for unneeded text.
