Recently I've upgraded my internet connection to include 5 static IP numbers. Reverse and Forward DNS lookups on the IP numbers are identical. Identd is turned on and answering properly. However, when connecting to ANY irc server I get the following:
[09:02] Local host: john.tenbucks.net (70.62.14.75)
-
[09:02] -irc.efnet.pl- *** Looking up your hostname...
-
* Identd request from 217.17.33.10
* Identd replied: 1059, 6667 : USERID : UNIX : WazntMe
-
[09:02] -irc.efnet.pl- *** Checking Ident
-
[09:02] -irc.efnet.pl- *** Couldn't look up your hostname
-
[09:02] -irc.efnet.pl- *** Got Ident response
after connecting, I do a whois on me with //whois $me and the reply always shows:
WazntMe is [email]WazntMe@217.17.33.10[/email]
(or the IP number of what ever IRC server I'm connected to).
Can anyone shed any light on this?
