Desperate need of help. Can't connect. #26166 26/05/03 05:38 PM

onemore O	When I try to connect to a server, it goes through found hostname but won't get past checking ident. Hangs there. No MOTD. Any ideas? All help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Some firewalls take a long time to allow the ident request to pass. Mine, for instance, takes anywhere from 30 secondsm to 2 minutes to connect to my server. Unless i forward 113, and 6667-7000, it will hang.
