 <DD><PRE>When connecting to server xchat doesnt send enough parameters for
  USER variable to server. I tried versions 1.6.4 and 1.7.1 from ports 
 and problem exist in both versions. Here is output:
 
 --- Connecting to eu.undernet.org (62.250.14.6) port 6667..
 --- Connected. Now logging in..
 --- AUTH :*** Looking up your hostname
 --- AUTH :*** Checking Ident
 --- AUTH :*** No ident response
 --- AUTH :*** Found your hostname
 --- USER :Not enough parameters     &lt;-- this is the problem
 </PRE>
 <DT><STRONG>How-To-Repeat</STRONG> 
 <DD><PRE>Just try to connect to any IRC server :)
 </PRE>
 <DT><STRONG>Fix</STRONG> 
 <DD><PRE>I have to type:
 /raw USER aaa aaa aaa aaa
 and then the server let me in.
 I know that this is not original xchat problem because I used
 xchat 1.6.4 under linux and there were no problems.

  Hi,
  
  Enter a username in X-Chat =&gt; Server-List. This should fix your problem.
  Entering something in both username+realname+nickname(s) would be even
  better. Also consider running an ident daemon.
  
  Does that help?
  
  Cheers,

 This is pilot error.  Both xchat ports work properly when configured 
 correctly.
