Link denied (Authentication failed [Bad password?])

Good evening,
now I'm sitting hours on one problem, everytime, I want to start my services (anope-1.6.4 / I tried anope-1.7.14, too), they aren't allowed to link with the following error:
[21:35] ••• (s) LocOps -- Link denied (Authentication failed [Bad password?]) [@217.79.182.xx.4267]
But my Passwords are the same and I wrote the config several times (from other sources, too), but everytime there is the error. Several other threads couldn't help, either.
I'll hope, somebody at this board can help me. :)

Here is my unrealircd.conf:
listen *:6667
{
options
{
ssl;
clientsonly;
};
};

listen *:1278 {
options {
serversonly;
};
};

link services.xyz.com {
username *;
hostname 217.79.182.xx; // Your service server IP
port 1278;
bind-ip *;
password-connect "services";
password-receive "services";
class servers;
};


ulines {
services.xyz.com;
};
[...]
set {
services-server "services.xyz.com";
};
And my services.conf:
RemoteServer services.xyz.com 1278 "services"

ServerName "services.xyz.com"
ServerDesc "Services for IRC Networks"
ServiceUser "[email protected]
Has anybody got an idea, what I've made wrong?

Thanks in advance,
Slotty

Just a random suggestion. Have you made sure to rehash your IRC server before trying to connect the services?

Yes, thousand times, without problems.

[21:35] ••• (s) LocOps -- Link denied (Authentication failed [Bad password?]) [@217.79.182.xx.4267]
RemoteServer services.xyz.com 1278 "services"

Use another password and restart your IRCD.

1. Remove -

Code: Select all

        options {
                serversonly;
        }
2. Rehash server.

3. Re-link services.

Slotty do it like this : Change your Services Link Password and check all the config like PORT , Services name , SERVER IP e.t.c
RemoteServer services.xyz.com 1278 "password"
And after u change ur services link password please restart your IRCD and tgry to up services.

I did it serveral times. I can also connect manually to the linked server with mIRC. Is there an encryption or something like that?
I can post my config-files or give you the adress, if you don't trust me.

Here is my log-file of anope:

It seems to me, that it gives out a random message. ;)

Thank you for your patience.

try an IP instead of hostname.

By-and-by I feel like an idiot.

I'll check my config when I get the chance and post it for ya. Something else you can do is run your server through port 6667.

CHANGE "services.xyz.com" TO THE HOSTNAME OR IP OF YOUR IRCD!!!
