mIRC Server options. #5316 07/01/03 04:22 AM

For some reason, filling out the same fields in File -> Options -> Connect -> Add\|Edit doesn't cut it. Almost seems like there's a difference in what mIRC does with the data (sends) from typing the above example on the text line and what's configured in the options. If I configure the IRCd to allow host masking from port 6665, I still have to specify the port number on the text line, even though mIRC defaults to it. Am I missing something?

Simply stick in the server & port as normal, then put.. [*]portpassword:myusername:mypassword as the password field. Works fine for me that way Axe -- The box said "Requires Windows 98 or Higher". So, I installed Linux.
