hm, never used trillian for IRC, what is the exact problem? are you connecting to the IP or to irc.suck-o.com? in the latter case it'll fail (at least at the moment)...

IRC can be accessed via irc.suck-o.com again too btw...

Just tried to connect to IRC, the host name resolves but I get a connection time out... since I have never used IRC before I am not sure of the troubleshooting format (google was a little vauge) I am on a university network that limits a host of things (torrents mostly) and am not sure if their setting would have an effect on IRC, other chat clients work fine (YIM MSN AIM and the like)

ideas?

hmm...how you tried to connect? via IRC client or via the web client on the right of the startpage?

Post by **lilrofl** » 19 Oct 2009, 11:13

both as of now, the IRC client says it's a socket error but that's all the information it gave, maybe 6667 is the wrong port?

Post by **bad_brain** » 19 Oct 2009, 11:28

nope, it's definitely the right one. try if you can telnet to IRC:

Code: Select all

telnet suck-oold.com 6667

if it's not working it is most likely filtered by the university network settings, in this case I should be able to run IRC on an extra port for you (one that is not a known IRC one).

$ telnet suck-o.com 6667
Trying 62.75.148.170...
telnet: connect to address 62.75.148.170: Connection timed out
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection timed out

Post by **bad_brain** » 19 Oct 2009, 11:58

ok, filtered then.

try port 9999 instead....
