in docs it said that hostname can be *

what can I go about this problem?
I have to use *.

* is acceptable for a hostname when the server is linking to you. Why can't you have a hostname?

You can use * for hostname, but if you do, you cannot use link::options::autoconnect or the /connect command. You must have the other server initiate the connection.

Also, be warned that * will allow the server to connect from anywhere, so for example people knowing the link pass could pretend to be the server.
