I connect to irc.us.rizon.net with no issues. Yet when I try to connect to irc.eskimo.com in Newnet I get the following error lines:
Local host: nbcarlo (192.168.0.2) -irc.eskimo.com- *** Looking up your hostname... -irc.eskimo.com- *** Checking Ident -irc.eskimo.com- *** Couldn't look up your hostname -irc.eskimo.com- *** No Ident response -irc.eskimo.com- *** Banned AGLINE ID c38a0fb9bbab3f0b64d2aed950499a7c -- Remove the underscore in your real name field Closing Link: 127.0.0.1 (*** Banned )
N.B.: I do not have any underscore in any field (name, nickname, etc.).
After a few reconnection trials I get the following:
Local host: nbcarlo (192.168.0.2) Closing Link: 127.0.0.1 (*** Banned (cached)) * [10054] Connection reset by peer
After a few further reconnection trials I get this:
Local host: nbcarlo (192.168.0.2) -irc.eskimo.com- *** Looking up your hostname... -irc.eskimo.com- *** Checking Ident -irc.eskimo.com- *** Couldn't look up your hostname
Have a look at your settings, btw the ident failure isnt a biggie as the server still allows a connection with a failed ident response
