I am using the sample config file, and ngircd reads it. But it acts wierd when I access the Server. Here is the output of ngircd- --configtest: [GLOBAL] ServerName = irc.the.net ServerInfo = Server Info Text Password = AdminInfo1 = AdminInfo2 = AdminEMail = MotdFile = /usr/local/etc/ngircd.motd Ports = 6667 Listen = ServerUID = root ServerGID = wheel PingTimeout = 120 PongTimeout = 20 ConnectRetry = 60 OperCanUseMode = no MaxConnections = 1024 MaxConnectionsIP = 5 MaxJoins = 10
The Admin and Password firlds are filled in in the conf file. Anyone know what I did wrong?

Hi Andrew!
The Admin and Password firlds are filled in in the conf file. Anyone know what I did wrong?
Are you sure that ngIRCd reads the "right" file? When called with the "--configtest" option the filename of the read file will be displayed.
If not, try to use the "--file <name>" option to specify your correct configuration file.
When using the ./configure defaults, ngIRCd searches for the file /usr/local/etc/ngircd.conf.

Hi. I have the sample config file, and I have copied it to /usr/local/etc/ngircd.conf. I have not moddified the file at all. Still, it refuses to honor some fields (Password, Admin are shown to be blank when I use --configtest) and others are acting strangly (/oper TheOp ThePwd fails with "Incorrect Password" exen though it's in the config section). Anyone know what I did wrong?
Thanks Andrew

^^^^^ Okay, don't get me wrong: but when you didn't change the sample config file, how should the server guess your desired configuration?
The fields mentioned by you are commented out in the ngircd-sample.conf by default (and are therefore "empty") ...
Perhaps I misunderstood you, then please send your configuration file and the complete output of "ngircd --configtest".
