I started with a blank mirc.ini with only the following:
I used the 7.73 servers.ini file.
1, Open mIRC.
2, Edit "DALnet" server.
3, Login Method: SASL (/CAP)
4, SASL Password: fake:fake
5, Other Tab: [check] On Startup: Connect to server
6, Click OK to exit "Edit Server"
7, Click OK to exit "mIRC Options"
8, Look at the servers.ini file:
The ",01" seems to be a bug? From testing without SASL it shows up as "1".
[servers]
n0=Random serverSERVER:irc.dal.net:+6697:nzVRqOOTdzLim5eWu/j7OMlEPUyIFSkaXQ==GROUP:DALnet:1,"",1,,,,,01
9, Reopen the DALnet Server's Other tab:
10, BUG: Not checked.
11, [check] Connect to server
12, [check] Minimize window
13, Click OK to exit "Edit Server"
14, Click OK to exit "mIRC Options"
15, Look at servers.ini file:
[servers]
n0=Random serverSERVER:irc.dal.net:+6697:nzVRqOOTdzLim5eWu/j7OMlEPUyIFSkaXQ==GROUP:DALnet:1,"",1,,,,,12523
Removing the SASL password and changing the Login Method back to "None" resets the server listing back to its original state.
