If you have a listen block that matches ip/mask "*", this means "listen on all available IPs".

The reason it's already in use is because you're already listening with it using "*"

if the user connects using irc.hostname.org then uses ipv4 while using ipv6 it should connect to ipv6.hotsname.org if conf :

Code: Select all

listen {
	ip "*";
	port 6667;
};

listen {
	ip "*";
	port 6697;
	options { tls; };
};

listen {
	ip *;
	port 6900;
	options { tls; serversonly; }
}
how do they connect using ipv6 ?

You can add your IPv6 address in your DNS by adding an AAAA record pointing towards your IPv6 for the same subdomain
