ChiefRedBull 11-22-2001, 05:21 PM We have our own IRC channel... connect to any EFNet server, and join #extreme-vb , and we'll see you there !! vbasic 11-22-2001, 05:51 PM for some reason I am unable to connect to efnet.com and efnet.net says I am not authorized. robot313 11-22-2001, 06:03 PM Try irc.lightning.net vbasic 11-22-2001, 06:11 PM Unable to connect (Network is Unreachable) robot313 11-22-2001, 06:12 PM What IRC client are you using? vbasic 11-22-2001, 06:14 PM mIRC robot313 11-22-2001, 06:16 PM Where do you live? It's good to try a server near you. vbasic 11-22-2001, 06:17 PM Minnesota robot313 11-22-2001, 06:20 PM Try irc.prison.net Squirm 11-23-2001, 02:35 AM 1) Choose a server which is close to your geographical location. Living in London (UK) as I do, I use efnet.demon.co.uk because that is near me. Servers are more likely to accept connections from local addresses. 2) Dont use what are known as erroneous nicknames. Often, servers dont like people with a nickname with Bot in it, or control codes, or that start with numerics. Other servers, such as the one robot313 obviously uses, are more flexible. 3) Firewalls. These can prevent you from connecting. Try turning it off for a short while while you connect. Once you connect, you can turn it on again. If this works, then you might be able to set your firewall to ignore connect attempts by mIRC. Thinker 11-23-2001, 06:59 AM Make sure you enable your Identd server. The three servers I can usually always connect to are: 1. San Luis Obispo (prison.net) 2. Homelien (homelien.no) 3. Edmonton (arcti.net) robot313 11-23-2001, 12:32 PM Thinker and Squirm, guess you didn't know, vbasic connected fine after I told him/her to use prison. Thinker 11-23-2001, 12:37 PM Thanks, good to know. I haven't been in as much recently. |
