Mivermind folks. I realized that my client was using a different
/open name password
than I had adjusted in the .conf
what a moron I am.
On the good news front. I have my server limited to my one channel, and don't have to worry about idiots using it.
oh... now that I say that.... from a utilization of resources standpoint. How to you prevent people from joining the SERVER and not a channel. I mean, and this is a bit ridiculas, but two people could join the server, and not the one allowed channel, but could use the / msg command to talk to each other. I run this server on a mac mini, and am looking for every way to eliminate any user other than the ones that are using the server/channel for it's purpose.
Any thoughts.

Password protect the IRCd and/or move it to a non-standard port to prevent scanning discovery efforts against TCP 6660-7000.
