tried my best

[sinergy]

HI,

Well I have been at this for several hrs and cant seem to figure it out.. read basically every thread that comes up in the search and nothing seems to work.

setup:

1 linksys router (DHCP off, port forwarding setup properly)
1 winblow box running mirc
1 brand new linux box 192.168.1.30


If I comment out my-ip / hostname and have NAT not set I get

"[00:43] -NOTICE- *** Looking up your hostname...
[00:43] -NOTICE- *** Checking Ident
[00:43] -NOTICE- *** Found your hostname
[00:43] -NOTICE- *** No Ident response
[00:43] -NOTICE- *** Banned Please install identd to use this server.
[00:43] -ERROR from server- Closing Link: 127.0.0.1 (*** Banned )
[00:43] Disconnecting from server."


If I comment out my-ip / hostname and have NAT set to my real ip I get

"[00:43] -NOTICE- *** Looking up your hostname...
[00:43] -NOTICE- *** Checking Ident
[00:43] -NOTICE- *** Found your hostname
[00:43] -NOTICE- *** No Ident response

[00:43] -ERROR from server- Closing Link: 127.0.0.1 (*** Banned )
[00:43] Disconnecting from server."


If I add my real world IP I get:

[00:49] main: entering loop
[00:49] Trying server efnet.vuurwerk.nl:6667
[00:49] Failed connect to efnet.vuurwerk.nl (Address invalid on remote machine)

If I add my real hostname and no IP:

"[00:49] main: entering loop
[00:49] Trying server efnet.vuurwerk.nl:6667
[00:49] net: connect! sock 5
[00:49] Connected to efnet.vuurwerk.nl

[00:50] -ERROR from server- Closing Link: 127.0.0.1 (*** Banned )
[00:50] Disconnecting from server."


I have tried every combination I can think of and still no luck. I also tried with and without the dns module and that didnt make any changes.

I am positive my dns forwarding is setup right because I have to it setup for my winblows box for dcc and it works fine. I just added the same settings for the linux box.

Any idea?

Thanks!

how about installing identd? or if running enabling it to response to localhost? or maybe you set localhost to the something like a thrust list to accept connections without identd response?
generally I would recommned to set nothing for my-ip in this case, just set nat-ip to your real world ip/hostname. if you can connect to the server over the LAN interface which connects to the router you can set this ip as my-ip. But however, this doesnt matter until your ircd gets an itentd response or doesnt demand 1 ^-^.

How can you forward the same ports to both machines that would cause a conflict. also forward port 113 (Ident) to your linux box.

only if the router cannot find a corresponding outgoing connection. if one of his pc's send packets to get dns results his router will know to which pc to return the packets.

sinergy:
The erorr states: install indentd. lets do that or reconfigure so it works...

Every router I have configured cisco and otherwise forward all port activity to the networked IP that is specified. Most routers will not even allow you to forward the same port to more than 1 machine. If no machines are assigned to a port then the router will send the packet to the machine that requested the packet. If an incomming packet such as ident comes into the router then it has no idea where to send the packet and it gets dropped, hence the whole point of port forwarding.

thanks guys..

I am searching for info in inentd I dont know much about it

linux-identd is a user identification daemon for Linux, which implements the Identification Protocol (RFC1413). This protocol is used to identify active TCP connections. The daemon listens to TCP port 113 (auth) and can be run either as a stand-alone daemon or through inetd.

In a nutshell, just use your distros' update mechanism to download and install identd and have it run at boot; it's as simple as that.

[greenbear]

I recommend oidentd. Basicly all you have to do is start it.

i've got an idea why you can't go into the server
it's some sort of my type, this is how it goes...:

............
it may be due to you are glined from the network ^_^
check with them via email, try emailing their network admin ^___^

[De Kus]

this has nothing to do with the above problem. your problem is simply that your IP is beeing blacklisted on openrbl.org. nothing more, nothing less.

his ban reason states the reason for banning is the missing identd response.

[Alchera]

All you have to do is either install oidentd or linux-identd; it's as simple as that. No more dramas with connecting your eggdrop. You need to have an ident deamon running!
