alright.. this is fun..

I performed a FreeBSD 4.0 package install of ircd version 2.10.3. I copied
example.conf to ircd.conf in /usr/local/etc/ircd/ and made some standard
modifications like changing names and ip addresses. When I attempt to start
ircd (command /usr/local/sbin/ircd) i receive the following syslog message:

Jun 15 23:34:37 brainkrash iauth[19953]: Daemon starting (2.10.3+debug).
Jun 15 23:34:37 brainkrash iauth[19953]: Daemon exiting. [w Broken pipe]

There is no more detail than that and I cannot find any log files with any
more messages (check /usr/local/var/log/ircd/*). I have tried running as
root and as a user (with permissions to all known files [conf and log]) to
no avail. iauth does not seem to run and ircd will not start. 

When run with the -s flag i get no messages and no ircd. I have tried
deleting the package install and compiling via the ports collection as well
to no avail, the same problem persists.

My next step was to compile in debug mode and see if I can get any more
information. I perform a 'make configure' in the port directory and then
change to /usr/ports/irc/irc/work/irc2.10.3/i386-unknown-freebsd4.0 and
modify config.h to include #define DEBUGMODE. I then return to
/usr/ports/irc/irc and do 'make all'. The make then fails with the
following error:

rm -f iauth
cc  -o iauth clsupport.o clmatch.o iauth.o a_conf.o a_io.o a_log.o
mod_lhex.o mod_pipe.o mod_rfc931.o mod_socks.o -lcrypt 
clsupport.o: In function `inetntop':

argh. i'm still new to bsd but at this point I don't know what more to
do...

Thanks.
