Greetings everyone,

English is not my native language so forgive my bad grammar (if any)

I signed up here, after days of (effortless) trying to make UnrealIRCd and/or KiwiIRC (https://kiwiirc.com/) webchat pass-through client IP addresses.

Every client that joins via the webchat appears to originate from my router's IP (192.168.0.1). This of course isn't what i want (nor do i want to see the infamous "Session Exceeded").

I've added multiple cgiirc blocks to my unrealircd.conf, which you can see below (passwords have been ****'d out):

Code: Select all

cgiirc {
  type webirc;
  hostname the.minecraftnoob.com;
  password *******;
};

cgiirc {
  type webirc;
  hostname 178.118.241.36;
  password ********;
};

(the same applies for my KiwiIRC's config.js)

Code: Select all

// WebIRC passwords enabled for this server
conf.webirc_pass = {
    "178.118.241.36": "******"
//    "the.minecraftnoob.com": "*******"
};

- https://kiwiirc.com/docs/webirc

Everything matches BUT yet again every client that connects has the darn router IP.

My router's (external) ports aren't blocked and i've even tried this with both router- and software firewall disabled (even enabling DMZ didn't make a difference).

My router is a Telenet (ISP) branded CBN (Compal Broadband Networks), Model CH6643E.

Thanks for any help offered!

Good news! After some chit chat with the developer of KiwiIRC we've managed to solve the problem by using a newer version of the IRC webclient!

The current settings i use are as followed:

KiwiIRC (config.js)

Code: Select all

// Multiple WebIRC passwords may be used for multiple servers
conf.webirc_pass = {
    "the.minecraftnoob.com":  "******"
};

UnrealIRCd (unrealircd.conf)

Code: Select all

cgiirc {
  type webirc;
  hostname 192.168.0.1;
  password ******;
};

~> The End <~
