Alex,
tnx again. The hint of using the sniffer is wonderful, but still cannot make it works.
 
If i send
cs->sendMessage("NICK guest\r\n");
cs->sendMessage("USER guest 0 * :Ronnie_Reagan\r\n");
 
i get:
[2532:7 4] Now resolving <ip>...
[2532:7 4] Ok, translated <ip>to "<hostname>".
[2532:7 4] Resolver sub-process 2532 done.
[3784:7 4] Resolver: Got callback on fd 7, events 1
[3784:7 4] Got result from resolver: "<hostname>" (22 bytes read).
[3784:7 4] Updating hostname of "*": "<ip>" -> "<hostname>"

[3784:7 9] Connection 6: got valid NICK command ...
[3784:7 25] Unregistered connection 6 timed out ...

[3784:7 25] Shutdown of connection 6 completed, 0 connections left.
 
 
 
 and if i send:
 
cs->sendMessage("USER guest 0 * :Ronnie_Reagan\r\n");
cs->sendMessage("NICK guest\r\n");
 
[5828:7 207] Now resolving <ip> ...
[5828:7 207] Ok, translated <ip> to "<hostname>".
[5828:7 207] Resolver sub-process 5828 done.
[3784:7 207] Resolver: Got callback on fd 7, events 1
[3784:7 207] Got result from resolver: "<hostname>" (22 bytes read).
[3784:7 207] Updating hostname of "*": "<ip>" -> "<hostname>"
[3784:7 212] <- connection 6: 'USER guest 0 * :Ronnie_Reagan'.
[3784:7 212] Connection 6: got valid USER command ...
[3784:7 228] Unregistered connection 6 timed out ...
[3784:6 228] Shutting down connection 6 (Timeout) with <hostname>:52619 ...
[3784:5 228] Client unregistered (connection 6): Timeout
[3784:6 228] Connection 6 with <hostname>:52619 closed (in: 0.0k, out: 0.0k).
[3784:7 228] Shutdown of connection 6 completed, 0 connections left.
 
So, syntax of both commands is correct, but in both cases only the first command is served.
 
Tnx,
Alex

Hi Alessandro!

If you don’t use user authentication (a global server password or PAM), you must not send a PASS command right.

Which tells you, that ngIRCd „unregistered“ this client again because of a „read error“.

No.

Nickserv has nothing to do with user login or the PASS command.

And as I already told you, the commands sent to the server should be:

You state above that you only send „\n“ which is ASCII 10, which doesn’t terminates an IRC command. Therefore ngIRCd didn’t get a single command from your client and most probably times out your connection. No?

If not, try to run ngIRCd in „sniffer“ mode („./configure --enable-sniffer“, „ngircd --nodaemon --sniffer“) and let’s have a look at the (complete) output you get.
