/server <server/group>

that <> is the same as set:dns::nameserver rite...? when i replace the <> with my isp nameserver ip ( i also replace the entry in set:dns::nameserver ) ... whether the primary one or the secondary... and when i /server <> ... i get "connection timed out". the same result comes out if i use my ip. im using ircd for windows. running on my own computer.

You really should learn the BASICS...

Code: Select all

/server 127.0.0.1

hoxy, I think you might want to learn a bit more about the Internet before running your own IRC server. You seem to have very little knowledge about how things work. That's not a bad thing, everyone must learn, however, trying to "learn on the job" is just asking for problems.

Anyway, to let people connect, you need to give them your IP address. If you don't know what that means, then you DEFINATELY should NOT be running a server.
