When I read my question back...I thought maybe it would not be that clear, but tried it anyway....sorry!!

Let me try again....It has to do with 'cloaking' my IP address on the Undernet. My 'puter is often on for hours at a time due to having Op status in a channel...without me being near it for extended periods of time.

I have a small script running that recovers my initial nick. I also have this running, which authenticates me:

***on 1:CONNECT:/msg x@channels.undernet.org login <nick> <password> | /mode <nick> +x***

However. Often due to additional netsplits, the 'cloaking' fails when I return on-line, and the cloaking authentication will fail and my original IP address is evident.

What I would like to do, is to set a timer, whereby, should this happen...I will re-authenticate after a short period of time.

I originally tried the following, without success....

on 1:CONNECT: {
timer1 0 300 msg x@channels.undernet.org login <nick> <password | /mode <nick> +x
timer1 0 420 Off
}

I am, however, waaaaaay out in left field with it, I am sure.

I hope this clarifies my problem and...again...any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
