Greetings,
I have been trying last 2 days to make unreal listen to port 6667 with no luck!
unrealircd.conf
Code: Select all
listen *:6679
{
options
{
clientsonly;
};
};
listen *:7000;
listen *:6667
{
options
{
clientsonly;
};
};
i tried connecting to my server with port 6667 but it keeps giving me connection refused! but when i change the port from 6667 to another port i can connect to the new port but when i put back 6667 i get connection refused!
any help please?
Regards

If this is a home server, which looks that way, have your forwarded your ports properly?

Greetings,
This is not a home server, its a Linux dedicated server.

ok I'm sorry, you didn't miss a semi-colon, my bad.
However try using an IP instead of a wild card and see if that fixes it.
(replace 1.2.3.4 with your real IP)
instead of
It may seem weird, but sometimes it works. When dealing with the ircd's config file, the less ambiguous the better.

That sounds a LOT like the host has blocked the use of IRC servers for some reason or another. I would advise you get in touch with the host and ask them for more info.
