Due to abuse, if you are on many isps, on DALnet and some other networks you must have identd enabled. At http://kline.dal.net/exploits/ident.htm you will see the Ident FAQ on this, and to the left you will find links, click on the one that says Windows Identd for step by step how to enable identd in mIRC and links to standalone identd servers which may solve your problem. (even tho this is on DALnet's website, you can still find helpful info regardless of the network you are on)

Be sure you are not blocking port 113 with firewall (including the one with WinXP, see http://www.mirc.org/xpdcc/default.htm (and note that in v6.14 dcc ports were moved to connect/options, click the advanced button) for help with that) or router. You can find the same info here and here.
Windows XP Service Pack 2 users will find a new Windows Firewall with a slightly new interface. Please see this page for help or this guide. Do note, if you are only going to open port 113 rather than make an entire exception for mIRC, choose 'TCP'.

If you have a router and you need to forward port 113, then it depends on the router you have. It's a good idea to read the manual, however, see if your router is listed at http://www.portforward.com/routers.htm and see if they have instructions for yours. (Thanks Danthemandoo for that link)

The latest versions of Norton Antivirus have an "Internet Worm Protection" feature which may block port 113. To disable it, open NAV and click on 'Options'. Under 'Internet' go to 'Internet Worm Protection' and uncheck the box.

If identd has worked for you in the past and suddenly isn't on DALnet, read http://toidyman.net/identd.html.

If you are receiving an error message such as this:

"Your username is invalid.
Connect with your real username, in lowercase.
If your mail address were foo@bar.com, your username would be foo."


Or

"Closing Link: 0.0.0.0 (Invalid username [ ])"

..then you will need to edit your E-mail address settings or your IdentD. Make sure that you are not using any special characters such as $, %, ^, * in your email address or IdentD. To check your email address settings go to ALT+O > Connect and check the email address box.
To check your IdentD settings go to ALT+O > Connect > IdentD. Check the box next to 'User ID'.

Also make sure that everything in both those boxes is in lowercase (no CAPS). If it still doesn't work then try removing numbers and double check you have no other special characters. Remember that a script or a virus could be changing your IdentD automatically and that could be causing you problems. If it's a script you will need to unload the script from your remotes. If you think it may be a virus then see this thread and use 2-3 virus scanners to secure your system.

If the problem still persists then you're going to need to contact the network administration. Remember, this error message isn't given to you by mIRC, mIRC is just a client. The server of the network is actively refusing your connection due to your settings. You will need to go to your network's website and look for contact emails. If you don't know the network's website, search on Google.

You can find further help with this error message on this page. If you are a GameSurge user see their forums. If you are a Quakenet user see this page.

Some routers will let you use triggered port mapping. It allows incoming port 113 connections to go to multiple computers on your network. That way you can use mIRC from multiple computers. Triggered port mapping listens for messages from your computers, that have a specific destination port, or range of ports.

For example, you can tell the router to trigger a port mapping when it sees a connection message for port 6667, which is usually how you connect to an IRC server. You also tell the router to map port 113 to any computer that causes the trigger.

Unfortunately some routers don't have the triggered port feature, or it doesn't work right with port 113. I'm not sure why port 113 is such a problem, but please complain to the router manufacturer if they don't support port 113, or it doesn't work correctly.

Without knowing exactly what is happening to you, its hard to just guess. What exactly happens? What msgs do you get?

If its a msg telling you to enable identd, some networks have had so many probs from users from certain providers that they insist all users from those providers (the ppl you pay for your internet service) enable identd.

Banning may not be aimed at you specifically, but on all ppl within a certain ip range and you are getting caught in it.

Hi! I have a question on identd. I was told to identify or identd myself with mIRC. I ve tried everything to identd myself through mIRC help and through the website you had posted. But nothing works. I'm getting 'No Ident response' when I connect to mIRC. How can I identd myself? Please help!

it is possible that you use a firewall/router which does not let you use the identd. you need port 113 open for relay

for most networks it's no problem if you can't ident, it just uses the part in front of the @ of the email address you filled in.

make sure that the part in front of the @ of that email address is all lowercase without any special characters to be sure it works


If it ain't broken, don't fix it!

Hi! It's me again. Okay, I did what you said. But what happen if the part in front of the @ of the email address I filled in is short by one word or number in the mIRC option/connection/Identd.
This is what it said when I connect.

-irc.mircx.com- *** Looking up your hostname...
-
-irc.mircx.com- *** Found your hostname, cached
-
-irc.mircx.com- *** Checking Ident
-
-irc.mircx.com- *** No Ident response

Thank alot for helping!!!

Hello there smile

I was pointed to this forum by a friend, who was helping me with my identd problem.
I have a network here at home...just 3 computers. If i connect as the main computer, i get identified, but my Userid is not the one i set.
If i connect as the client, i don't get identified, but my Userid remains as the one i set. What's going on?
I have a proxy program called AnalogX., no firewall and my router doesnt block the port 113 (i checked already smile
Help me please! Thanks smile

That message is unrelated to IdentD.

Some networks have a +R (or +r) channel mode which means only registered/identified users can join - not all networks have this.

The problem might be a desynch. Reconnect to a different server (try /links for a list) and then identify again. Also make sure you use your registered nickname and that you don't just identify from a nickname different from your registered one.

Their may be other factors involved for the network you use - we are not affiliated with any one channel, server or network and so can't possible know about all of them. The best thing to do is to ask in the network's #Help channel or check out the network's website. If you don't know the website address, search Google.

Best of luck smile

Regards,

I've been trying to configure my system to work with the servers requiring identd. Other servers let me in using mIRC 6.14.

My system is WINXP prof, and I am using F-Secure client (I've tried also F-S client unmounted)

I have configured WINXP's firewall according to advice found inin this thread, but identd not working.

The network I am accessing internet is an open access WLAN, which seems to use DHCP.

Is there any solution to my identd problem or is this a gateway issue??
