In some way, my users get disconnected when DCC'ing on my network, how is this possible?

* Sound request: cannot find 'huh.wav'
[20:52] [Dreams SOUND]
[20:52] <Dreams> ?¿?¿ HuH ?¿?¿
[20:52] -Dreams- Sending huh.wav failed. (BorgIRC) <--- translation
[20:53] * Dreams ([email protected]) Quit (Operation timed out)

sometimes other users tent to get dragged with them....

This is probably a client problem. DCC has little to do with IRC *sigh* .

i know that is has little to do with it but, sometimes the whole server 'crashes' (all users get disconnected, server stay's up) becous of it

DCC isn't sent over IRC. There is no way a DCC connection could possibly cause such a problem. And if all your users are getting disconnected, that sounds like your server is on a poor internet connection.

still having the same problem is there a way to completly disable DCC??? i've set the server to disallow all files like this

deny dcc {
filename "*";
reason "DCC IS NOTALLOWED";
};

still DCC traffic is made....

then again i realised that the server is behind a router could it be a config file setting that is bound to the servers internal IP 192.168.1.2 and not the the real ip ???

sry to bug you all again with this thing....... but i really want to enable (or disable but rather enable) it on my server

Use AngryWolf's noctcp module to block all DCCs (umode +M)

If that's true, such a DCC connection must be come from or addressed to an IRC operator, or they are already existing DCC connections, established before the denial was configured.
