internal modelist lost when networkname changes #83875 23/05/04 11:29 AM
T Temmer
Temmer T	let me try to explain this, as the subject isnt that clear i use irssi on my linux router, and i connect with mIRC to it's proxy (irssi acts like an irc server to mirc) so when i connect to irssi, i get these reply's: Code: Welcome to the Internet Relay Network Your host is irssi-proxy, running version 0.8.6 This server was created ... neejberhood.proxy 0.8.6 oirw abiklmnopqstv so mirc sets the $network to 'neejberhood.proxy' but when i use /version (done automatically by a script to have the proper network name) i get the real server's version reply: Code: WHOX WALLCHOPS WALLVOICES USERIP CPRIVMSG CNOTICE SILENCE=15 MODES=6 MAXCHANNELS=20 MAXBANS=45 NICKLEN=20 TOPICLEN=250 AWAYLEN=160 KICKLEN=250 are supported by this server CHANTYPES=#& PREFIX=(ov)@+ CHANMODES=b,k,l,imnpstrDcCNu CASEMAPPING=rfc1459 NETWORK=Neejberhood are supported by this server so now mirc sets $network to 'Neejberhood', and this is where it goes wrong when someone has op in a channel, the isop command returns false, the mode prefix ( <@nick> ) is gone, but the nick in the nicklist keeps the @ see Inferno on this screenshot: http://users.telenet.be/temmer/mirc.jpg offcourse this is solved by doing a /names to all channels this problem exists in mirc 6.03 and 6.14 and i assume all versions have it i dont think it can be that much of a problem to keep the list with modes based on connection id instead of network name

DekuHaze D	May I ask, why are you using irssi as a proxy to IRC for mIRC? I would've thought it'd be much easier to use NAT/IP Masquerading or Squid.

I was describing this problem to the guys in #Helpdesk at the weekend - not sure if you were there

I did a little research into what irssi responds with when you re-connect to it, and the names raws are in there. However, they appear to be out of sequence compared to a join from a normal server:

mIRC-initiated JOIN sequence:

Code:

-&gt; Surrey.UK.EU.Undernet.Org JOIN #mirc
&lt;- :Proboscis!~wibble@host&lt;removed&gt;.btcentralplus.com JOIN #mIRC
-&gt; Surrey.UK.EU.Undernet.Org MODE #mIRC
&lt;- :Surrey.UK.EU.Undernet.Org 332 Proboscis #mIRC :mIRC 6.14 --&gt; http://www.mirc.co.uk/get.html -- No lameness - No flooding - No msg'ing the ops - No bot questions - No aways!

&lt;- :Surrey.UK.EU.Undernet.Org 329 Proboscis #mIRC 823923645

irssi-initiated (re)JOIN sequence:

Code:

&lt;- :Sais!mnj@proxy JOIN #mIRC
-&gt; undernet.proxy MODE #mIRC
&lt;- :undernet.proxy 353 Sais = #mIRC :dwkdj SteInMetz sirmokiem spooki @mERK mirrian @magic Raccoon @prescott Diabolique BEAR33 Loagan Kedishen Scarab Mentality DotBlue_ Scat-Man init`OFF ncdpuy ScoT CHETOS @Julie2 Mike` @WOT Rydekull @X Salomonis road^bump is`OUT MyAnGels martyanu- RAPTOR_BM NetDevil Sigh_ MadRomeo Rockj Eistee rmngdq Kniht IceShaman [R]ick TiuDu @mIRC- Dennyy- Ramo22 raffy racefan niceone NoNaMe^^^ daniel789 Pepsi-Cola @childofchaos BrEaKaBlE Jagfire tolecnal gdrAW @Sais Maghaweer

&lt;- :undernet.proxy 366 Sais #mIRC :End of /NAMES list.
&lt;- :undernet.proxy 332 Sais #mIRC :mIRC 6.14 --&gt; http://www.mirc.co.uk/get.html -- No lameness - No flooding - No msg'ing the ops - No bot questions - No aways!
...
&lt;- :Surrey.UK.EU.Undernet.Org 324 Sais #mIRC +tnl 66
&lt;- :Surrey.UK.EU.Undernet.Org 329 Sais #mIRC 823923645

Note that the sequence in the first case is:
332, 333, 353 ... 366 ,324,329

while in the second case, the names come first:
353 ... 366, 332, 324, 329

(hmm. and missing 333 RPL_TOPICWHOTIME)

Question: does the order matter? I don't *think* it's specified in RFC 1459 (I'll check and ammend this if I find out).

I'll also play with the irssi proxy, and see if I can recompile it to send the replies back in the first order - I think it's easy-ish - see if that has any effect.

As for the network recognition problem, I'm not sure how mIRC recognises the network name, it doesn't always seem to update when I use /version. I suppose you could hack irssi to generate a 005 response with the group name...

However, I was running a precompiled 0.8.9 irssi, but it still had this problem - no idea why. I also don't understand why it wasn't detecting other op's nicks as being ops. Something weird that I can't quite fathom atm. Anyway, I would suggest upgrading irssi to 0.8.10-rc4 (the latest CVS version) or at least 0.8.9 (the latest release version). You seem to be running 0.8.6...:) I didn't see your NETWORK= problem in 0.8.9/10, although I do still seem to get problems with network detection. There's still some more digging to do, but that's for another time In summary - the problem does appear to have lain with irssi - at least with regard to the op nick inconsistency. As far as I'm concerned the verdict's still open on the network issue; however it's (now) a different issue to the one Temmer mentioned...will post more when I know
