For the first server it doesn't let me on either, so I guess it is a private server (perhaps a french only server, or a friends only server). For the second server it will only let you on if you are using an Identd server (There is one of these built into mIRC, found in Options -> Connect -> Identd).

check to be sure you arent blocking the port identd needs, 113, in firewall/router.
