Maybe your irc software doesn't really do what it says it my irc software works fine .. i tryed 2 different software and i took binary that i compiled on other boxes and it works fine over there. > does. Maybe the -H doesn't work if it's not a real interface. Why don't shell providers using same thing and it works for them just fine > you have a look at the code? It won't be that hard to work out what it unfortinatly i'm not very good at coding so is there a way you can take look yourself? i'll give you all info where to take source code and i also can provide you with shell on my box for all your tests > does with the -H option.
