I can CTCP to my bots when I first start them. No issues at all.
When my IP changes because of my VPN, CTCP connects, but I never get a username prompt. I need to restart the bot(s) to get it working again. That's a hassle, as I need to move clients into channels to hold them with Ops, etc..
Rehash and restart don't resolve the issue - I have to kill the process or bot die, then restart, and then it works flawlessly the rest of the day.
Any ideas how I can prevent this from happening? Other than "don't use a VPN", lol
