I don't know if any of you noticed, but I put up an IRC channel. Here are the details:

http://www.kirupaforum.com/forums/announcement.php?s=&forumid=4

Now I need your opinion. Is this a good idea? You'd rather post than chat? Whatever? Let me know so I can either keep it up or take it down.

I like the channel. Let's me say whatever without feeling like i've got to add a lot to it or feel i'm spamming.

The DAL net IRC servers that you would use are... irc.eu.dal.net Connect to that server, and join #kirupaforum

Please use the program that can be downloaded from that link.

giving you an address will just make it more ugly.

I'm using IRCle (MAC client) and I need a better server address as well...

shouldn't matter which IRC app you use but the right server address is nec. if it is not in the "servers" default list

hm...syko. you're not the first to have this problem. Have you tried connecting to another DALnet server?

Niann
August 5th, 2003, 05:29 PM
Make sure you have a local identd server running... DAL net requires one...

Cheers!

it says unable to connect! :(

what;s the address? and the port i should use?

thoriphes
August 5th, 2003, 05:42 PM
the port is fine (6667). you need to try connecting to several different servers (not Random). It took me 3 server hops to get on.

DALnet is a popular server, so it's no doubt that you won't be able to connect at times.

I cannot connect to a Random EU DAL server so im choosing a random one, i know this is the problem because im int he ArabChat channel (lol) so can someone give me the address that they used to connect? (not the random one)

BTW-great idea thou who almost left us just a while ago & ago & ago......

pj :P

link please???? ok and i'm sure your ordered posts don't require a sitting :sigh: :P

if you don't read the whole thing you're not gonna get in. it's surprisingly complicated and you'll eventually go through the entire thing to find anything you missed. the link for the program should be one of the first lines in the Announcement
