im confused.. the bnc refuse to connect at 208.98.27.5... and connects always to the main ip 208.98.1.58... im changing the PSYBNC.SYSTEM.HOS1 and DCCHOST to 27.5... and it doesnt connect to it...can somebody help me?

If you do a dns lookup you see:

208.98.27.5 - Jesus.Tapdancing.Christ.loves.R0ckers.be

Maybe the ip/host is restricted for other users, or there are other people already connecting multiple connections with that ip, which exceeds the limit of an ircd. Just startup your bnc with default, do NOT connect to any irc server with it, and use /bvhost to change the current vhost.

[edit] Post split from the announcement topic.

if it does not connect, i thinnk you need to set a vhost... there could be manu users connected to the main IP on the irc server ur connecting into...

if the problem still persist, contact the admins and ask them to help you fix the problem... btw, i happen to see on a conversation over irc that some IPs are to be allocated to staffs... don't connect to those IPs else ur connection will just be refused (if i am not mistaken)

i found the answer of my question just a minute after posting this... next time i will first read the whole forum then ask.thank you though.
