linking me to my own server? - mIRC Discussion Forums

i used to have a program that would let me link to my server, through my computer, so, if i was script testing, and accidently gline myself, i could start the program, and connect since it was a server, it bypassed the gline, and i could then remove it....anyone know of a program that does this?

I know of no such thing and if your dumb enough to gline yourself you shouldnt even be running a ircd

Heres the technical look, unless you used a proxy or your local ip looked different theres almost no way, b/c when you link servers they share the glines from one to the other

what i'm talking about it, my buddy made a program, where i connected as a server, not through another server, and a server cant be glined, so it bypassed the gline and allowed me to remove it, but, i cant find it anymore, and dont see my friend much anymore either

Just remove the gline in the config file and restart the server program. If the server's running on a remote machine you're gonna have to remote control it or ask the owner to do it, of course. Actually, changing the config file is probably simpler than connecting as a server, which might also require changing the config file anyway.
