RenCorner Network

IRC permission denied


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hello. I set up mIRC on this PC for the first time and tried to connect to rencorner server by following shaitan's instructions in IRC Perform topic. After a few seconds I get this message "Unable to connect to server (Permission denied)". 

I've tried using both irc.rencorner.co and the ip address.

Try the irc tab at the top of our forum here. Paste the logs of both that and mirc.

irc chat works

I looked at my irc connection and it looks like this.  after description type irc.rencorner.co  after IRC server type 208.115.205.106 after ports type 6667  that should connect you.

You said you tried the direct ip? The (dns pool) part suggests you're connecting to each of our linked irc's. Remove the "Rencorner" from each of those 'group' slots you have in the pic(under the port field).

Try the direct ips:

208.115.205.106

64.31.41.114

ok the direct ip 208.115.205.106 worked. Which is weird cause I tried it before and it didn't work then.

 

Edit: I'm all set, thank you. :)

I'm thinking it was that group part you added. If server A doesn't connect, it automatically goes to server B, then C. Sort've of throttles it.

 

Those two IPs are the actual IRCd's we have, so one or the other will almost always be online.

the group part was new. I didn't use it the first times.

Come on ts tomorrow and I'll fix it for you.

it's already fixed but thank you Volcom :)

under description try irc.rencorner.co . maybe that will help.

How fast is that connecting each time? Turn on your timestamps in options.

See if you can connect it to: /server irc.jelly-server.com

If you get it connected, tools>options>connect> either ident or local, see what your IP is(see if its the one starting in 173.). I know Karl used to have multiple IPS, one for gaming other for web.

Can also try opening a command prompt, typing: ipconfig /flushdns

Check your antivirus, make sure it's not blocking it.

Check your firewall, make sure it's allowing it(home, work group, etc).

Takes about 20+ seconds to try to connect.

same thing with  /server irc.jelly-server.com

Anti virus isn't doing it since I was able to connect before.

 

Fire wall had no rule for mIRC so I made one that allows all networks but still nothing.

i'm not sure what a command prompt is.

Posted

It's a window the accepts command line entries.  Think of it as a dos window.

Posted

If you are using win 7, Start>search programs window on bottom>command prompt

Can also try opening a command prompt, typing: ipconfig /flushdns

so what am i  supposed to dowith ipconfig? flushdns isn't a command

Posted

ipconfig/? to display help  you will see /flushdns is a command parameter, as in "ipconfig /flushdns"

 

Edited cuz woolwind is always right!

Posted

flushdns isn't a command on it's own, it is an option to ipconfig

Posted

Have someone with teamviewer sort it out.  Easiest way to resolve this.

Now I feel like a derp. But i did the command and still nothing.

I also double checked all the firewall/anti virus permissions, all the settings everywhere, and still nothing. This makes no sense to me. I have the same network setup/provider as my parents, yet I can use mIRC at their house but not mine... Good thing I visit them every weekend for free food :P

could it be that the server doesn't accept my ip?

Like, would any of this mess it up?

That's why I asked you to use the forum irc we have. It uses your IP even though it's a mibbit.com app.

If we're both on ts hit me up for team viewer sometime when it's messing up.
