ip bans (in channels) bug ??
Posted: Sat Aug 28, 2004 1:20 am
a person & me from some irc net (runningUnreal3.2.1) might have discovered a bug
maybe this isnt a bug or maybe its been reported allready
or maybe it has a reason
but check this
when a channel op bans a user's ip , then it will only work if the user's host ISNT resolved
if /whois info shows somethin like this:
HePeR :is connecting from *@some.host.isp 192.168.0.1
and a channel op bans *@192.168.0.1 then the user heper WONT get banned
if /whois info shows somethin like this on the other hand:
Clone :is connecting from *@192.168.0.2 192.168.0.2
and a channel op bans *@192.168.0.2
then the user 'clone' WILL get banned
ps: ip's are just examples
so i guess the ircd doesnt bother to resolve the users dns if there is one when dealing with channel bans .... is this normal behavious or is there somethin wrong
