Connecting to two servers at startup - mIRC Discussion Forums

I have 2 servers that I want mIRC to connect to at startup. Is this possible? I have it connecting already to one of them at startup.

Use the Remote section in the Scripts Editor for that and use this code:

Code:

on *:START:{
  server irc.network1.net
  server -m irc.network2.net
  server -m irc.network3.net
}

If you want to immediately join certain channels then you can add after that command, e.g.

Code:

server irc.network1.net -j #chan1,#chan2

Thanks, that worked like a charm!!!

I am replying to this old thread because I'm using this exact code.

When I try to put the join channel command here it loads two instances of the same server instead of joining a channel on each server list.

I think I'm doing something wrong here.

They should be different networks entered into the script (not different servers on the same network). Examples: irc.undernet.org and irc.efnet.net

What does the -m command do.. ??
I am searching but..

I use SECURE connections to two servers..
will this start script auto apply the settings from
the main ini stored..??

never mind once I discovered the /server command on another tie I found what I was looking for.

The -m is a switch altering the behavior of the /server command. It makes the server open in a new status window instead of replacing the current server connection.
