Linking .... a Pain in the ass

Ok, Iam trying to link 2 servers to eachother. but .. it's not going too well

Server1 = 1.1.1.1
Server2 = 2.2.2.2

me::name (Server1) = Anime.Anime
me::name (Server2) = Lighting.Lighting

(for example ofcourse)

Server1 Numeric = 4
Server2 Numeric = 5

(You couldnt link 2 server with the same Numeric)

Server1's Link.conf

Code: Select all

link Anime.Anime { 
   username *; 
   hostname 2.2.2.2; 
   bind-ip *; 
   port *; 
   hub *; 
   password-connect "l33t";
   password-receive "l33t";
   class servers; 
};

Server2's Link.conf

Code: Select all

link Lighting.Lighting { 
   username *; 
   hostname 1.1.1.1; 
   bind-ip *; 
   port *; 
   hub *; 
   password-connect "l33t";
   password-receive "l33t";
   class servers; 
};

Ok, Unreal was running succesfully, and when I used
/connect Lighting.Lighting on the Anime.Anime Server

Then ..the server noticed me with this 'error':

server wrote: *** Connecting to Lighting.Lighting[2.2.2.2].
*** LocOps -- Link denied for Lighting.Lightning([email protected]) (No link block named 'Lighting.Lightning') Lighting.Lighting[@2.2.2.2.0]

And ... I got the same problem if I did a /connect Anime.Anime at the Lighting.Lighting Server.

Could somebody please explain me what to do .. did I miss something ... or forgot something?

Thank you.

Hm... I think you have your link pastes backwards, because if those are what you really have, then that means both servers have a link block for themselves (not what you want

).

You also seem to be using 'Lighting.Lighting' in one place and 'Lighting.Lightning' in the other.

hmmm... suppose all the linking post in here are worthless? not to mention the documentation...

over 50+ post dealing with linking... and a nice How-To

Server2

Code: Select all

link Anime.Anime { 
   username *; 
   hostname 1.1.1.1; 
   bind-ip *; 
// change to w/e port you want, i am just going to use port 6667
   port 6667; 
   hub *; 
   password-connect "l33t"; 
   password-receive "l33t"; 
   class servers; 
           options {
        autoconnect;
// uncomment the following line for ziplinks
//        zip;
// uncomment the following line for ssl
//        ssl;
        };
};

Server1

Code: Select all

link Lighting.Lighting { 
   username *; 
   hostname 2.2.2.2; 
   bind-ip *; 
// assuming both servers have a listen block for port 6667 without the 
// clients only flag
   port 6667; 
   hub *; 
   password-connect "l33t"; 
   password-receive "l33t"; 
   class servers; 
           options {
        autoconnect;
// uncomment the following line for ziplinks
//        zip;
// uncomment the following line for ssl
//        ssl;
        };
};

/rehash both servers and they should link perfectly

   password-receive "l33t"; 
   class servers; 
           options { 
        autoconnect; 
        }; 
};

Still no success

From your error messages, I can say that the problem lies on Anime.Anime. What it is exactly, I have no clue. Apparently, Anime.Anime doesn't think your link block for Lighting.Lighting exists. I would suggest run /stats link on that server. If you see a C for your server, then something else might be wrong, but if not, there may be configuration problems (a /* that wasn't closed correctly?) that is preventing it from seeing the link block.

does your server have a address? if so can i see it so i can connect and help you on irc itself?

Posted: **Sun Oct 03, 2004 10:55 pm**

has a /rehash or /restart been done since these changes?

Hello

i dont no if you can use this but that help me to link my server up

remember to do /rehash on both serveres when you change conf files

Master Server
---------------------
irc.xx.com
IP:1234

Server 2
-----------
tux.xx.com
IP: 5678

---------------------------------------------

how woukd the linkg then be like i have tried many things but i cant link the 2 serveres

I really shouldn't do this, but I will regardless...

Master Server Config:
link tux.xx.com
{
username *;
hostname 5678;
bind-ip *;
port 4000;
hub *;
password-connect "password";
password-receive "password";
class servers;
options {
autoconnect;
};
};

link irc.xx.com
{
username *;
hostname 1234;
bind-ip *;
port 4000;
hub *;
password-connect "password";
password-receive "password";
class servers;
options {
autoconnect;
};
};

Ggrr. Ok I got it thx all. Stupid mistake in the me::name of Lighting.Lighting
ok. But there is another question.

I want to have this. When someone types /server -m irc.myserver.net

Then he shouldnt get connected to irc.myserver.net. But another server .. that is linked to irc.myserver.net how do I do this ?

just like Rizon has .. and ofcourse other servers too

/server irc.Rizon.net > you wont connect to irc.rizon.net ... but irc.sex0rz.us, irc.hacked.us, or any other server that is linked to irc.Rizon.net.

How can I do this ?

It's called round robin DNS, and have been discussed here.
