Bad Password

Hello,

I am trying to set up Anope services with my Unrealircd, but the closest I can get it to running is with getting this error message:

*** LocOps -- Link denied (Authentication failed [Bad password?])

I got that error when I tried to have it connect to port 6667. I changed it to connect to port 7029 instead. Currently it does not give any error message, but does not connect to my ircd either. I have these configs:

unrealircd.conf:

Code: Select all

link            services.mynet.com
{               
        username        *;
        hostname        *;
        bind-ip         *;                        
        port            7029;
        hub             *;
        password-connect "pass1";            
        password-receive "pass2";           
        class           servers;
                options {
                        /* Note: You should not use autoconnect when linking services */
                        #autoconnect;
                        #ssl;            
                        #zip;
                };
};
services.conf:

Code: Select all

RemoteServer    irc.mynet.com 7029 "pass1"
ServerName  "services.mynet.com"
ServiceUser "[email protected]"
What am I missing ? Do you have any idea ?

imho, password must be "pass2".

Ah thanks, changing the port back to 6667 and the password to pass2 did the trick :) Weird though, you'd expect that "password-connect" would be the password required for services to connect to the ircd.

But works like a charm now, excellent, thanks :)

password-connect is the password sent to the remote server when that server is the one linking.

password-receive is the password that a server needs to send to link.
