OK... I know I'm being a pest, but here is the scenario. I run my own ircd and I *think* I've checked and changed all the places where the original _irc.synchro.net_ statements are located. Now the issue. When logged onto Node 1, when I choose the option R for irc, do I trigger two other nodes to connect then after a few minutes, they drop. No issue with NOde 1 as it stays connected, but Node2 and 3 show a connection. Here is the debug capture...

Is the IRCD that you run something other than the Synchronet IRCD?

_irc.synchro.net_ statements are located. Now the issue. When logged onto Node 1, when I choose the option R for irc, do I trigger two other nodes to connect then after a few minutes, they drop. No issue with NOde 1 as it stays connected, but Node2 and 3 show a connection. Here is the

It's likely that this is an open proxy scanner that's part of the IRC server that you're running. The server accepts the connection that you initiated from node 1, then turns around and attempts to connect to you on various ports. If it finds an open proxy running on one of those ports, it assumes that you connected to it via the proxy, and handles you accordingly (disconnects you to prevent spam, etc.)

This is something that you should be able to configure on the server side, but it's not a problem, and is your IRCD just doing what it's supposed to.

There ya go!! You're a genius!! That makes total sense. I run bopm and a Defserv bot. It's no biggie in that I don't expect lots of traffic coming from the BBS.... was just something I noticed today. Hey, this is a learning process and your support has been the best.

Thanks!!
