Link cancelled - server is trying to connect with itself

Post by woodencross »

Hey guys,

this is what happens after I restarted the server without changing a .conf or something like that:

*** Notice -- Link [shelluser@*censoredIP.port] cancelled, server chat.mydomain.net already exists from chat.mydomain.net

In the logfile, it says:

[Mon Dec 20 00:19:44 2004] - Trying to send data to myself! 'ERROR :Server chat.mydomain.net already exists from '
[Mon Dec 20 00:19:44 2004] - Trying to send data to myself! 'ERROR :Closing Link: chat.mydomain.net[censoredIP] (Server Exists)'

I didn't change anything anywhere... so what happened??

I guess it has a link block for itself...

I don't know who did that, but it had a link to itself :evil:

I removed the whole block, now it says

*** LocOps -- Link denied for chat.myserver.net(shelluser@censoredIP) (No link block named 'chat.myserver.net') [[email protected]]

:cry:
