Try making your bind IP to a wildcard = *
Try changing the host name to localhost

Also the error says "link denied for irc.chainscriptz.net" but your link blocks are for irc2.chainscriptz.net and hub.chainscriptz.net, neither of which are irc.chainscriptz.net.

Try changing the host name to localhost

Uhm, no. the host name should be the IP address of the REMOTE server we are expecting the connection to be from. Secondly, we don't use names in link blocks, we use IPs unless we have no other choice. ie linking to a dynamic IP via no-ip or the like. The less ambiguity in the config file the better.

Something like this:

Code: Select all

link            hub.chainscriptz.net
{
   username   *;
   hostname    216.18.189.249;
   bind-ip    *;
   port       12345;
   hub             *;
   password-connect "password-we-send";
   password-receive "password-they-send";
   class           servers;
    options {
       autoconnect;
      };
};

hi katsklaw

Yes it was the issue,and was corrected thank fully,it was annoying too... after much reading through the configs its nice for some one to give a second opinion and spot the faults..

I have just returned to IRC after a 3 yr gap and I unfortunately used a host that did the set up for me and spotted few errors and spent a age to fix or set up.. now wished I did it myself.

Just need to find a way to fix chanserv, taking ops in channel after I give them,im sure their is a way,just I've forgotten
