Hi!

I have this stupid error so I can't connect to any irc server:

[12:52] Trying server irc.skynet.be:6667
[12:52] DNS resolved irc.skynet.be to 194.78.213.2
[12:52] net: connect! sock 6
[12:52] Connected to irc.skynet.be
[12:52] -ERROR from server- Closing Link: BalDahin[unknown@218.79.81.48] (Unauthorized connection)
[12:52] net: eof!(read) socket 6
[12:52] Disconnected from irc.skynet.be

What is wrong? I have my-hostname set? But I have a different ip every time I connect to the internet because I use dial-up networking.

And then there is the 111 error:

[12:49] Trying server sunsite.belnet.be:6667
[12:49] DNS resolved sunsite.belnet.be to 193.190.182.35

[12:49] Disconnected from sunsite.belnet.be

In both sutuations, the errors are as shown.

1: Unauthorised connection. You don't have access to that server.

2: COnnection refused. The server is blocking connections from your host. or blocking all connections that don't come from a certain range.

So there's nothing wrong with my eggdrop. Well then it's hard to find a good irc server

Yes, very true.

Many IRC networks do not allow bots. You should read the details on egghelp.org, they clear information about of to find a set of IRC servers for your bot.
