I have unreal 3.2 running on a server that has a block of 10 IP's and I can't seem to get unreal to only listen to one. It doesn't seem to matter if I even have a IP that is even valid for the server, I have only been trying useing "listen IP:port;" because I thought thats what it was for... maybe I am wrong and there is some other way to tell it to do that. Any help is greatly appreciated thanks.

I have that set

unrealircd.conf
..
listen 65.75.153.121:6667;
..

unrealircd.conf Rehashing
-
{6:49:16-PM} -irc.n3wb.net- *** Notice -- Loading IRCd configuration ..
-
{6:49:16-PM} -irc.n3wb.net- *** Notice -- Configuration loaded without any problems ..


connection attempt at a different IP but one of the 10

Welcome to the irc.n3wb.net IRC Network shouldnotwork!no@blahblahblah
Your host is irc.n3wb.net, running version Unreal3.2

ircd.log
..
[Sun Jul 11 19:52:28 2004] - Connect - shouldnotwork!no@blahblahblah [VHOST n3wb-2EFE5E75.blahblahblah]
..

As you can see it is set to listen on only 65.75.153.121 but accepts connections on the other IP's as well (120-129)

I am going to upgrade to 3.2.1 to see if it is just some issue with 3.2 but if that doesn't fix it I have no idea what to do, any help is greatly apreciated

I can assure you, it's not Unreal doing that. It must be your router or something on that particular machine.
