Bizzare error while trying to connect.

Hello,
i have been doing some reading on google, the faq, and the forums. I am new to IRC, but i am not new to the whole idea if scripting and setting up php, and config files, etc.

I have been running co-located servers for a while now, and i understand the frustration that alot of people have when there are simple answers to simple problems that can be found in the FAQ or in documentation.

Okay with that said.... I was finally able to get my config file to have no errors.

i have the Service running and whenever i try to connect to the server it gives me a variety of errors.

*********
Connect retry #4 192.168.1.21 (6697)
-
* Unable to connect to server (Software caused connection abort)
-
* Connect retry #5 192.168.1.21 (6697)
-
* Unable to connect to server (Software caused connection abort)
-
* Connect retry #6 192.168.1.21 (6697)
-
* [10050] Network is down
-
* Disconnected
***********

When i was connecting to 127.0.0.1 and i had the *:6697 in my config file all I would get was Network is Down and i dont know why!

When i changed it to 192.168.1.21:6697 and connected to the LAN ip it came up with the random errors like above.

Can anyone provide some insight for me? I'm stumped.

thanks,

Perhaps you have marked that port as SSL (see your listen options)? If so, just remove that, or connect with an SSL capable client with the correct usage etc.
