TCP/IP 0 Report post Posted August 10, 2005 Often on certain IRC servers, I am refused connection because of my IP address not being able to reverse resolve into its hostname. Many ISPs in India have this problem and often I find the need to use a Socks Proxy server inorder to join some private networks on IRC. Now the question is, does your IP address reverse resolve?

ashoksoft 83 Report post Posted August 11, 2005 Never had any props on any IRC server as such, and my Reverse DNS also does not work. Moreover I am behind a NAT, so things are all the more horrible... but hey I host an IRC server myself... Pretender and I share files (entire movies) over it!! cheers Ashok Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TCP/IP 0 Report post Posted August 11, 2005 I asked on some IRC Channels on Undernet and some say that it is probably because the ISP isn't set up correctly. What do you think about that? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
