Re: getting mirc to dcc Jeff, IRC is not the easiest of concepts to get down - it has a legacy that makes no real sense to the new user.
For instance, IDENT is a little check when you connect to an IRC server that evolved from UNIX systems so the person logged in a workstation can be identified. It's also used in some FTP and mail situations. It's virtually obsolete, now, but hangs on to this day though it makes little sense in most Windows systems. Also, it has no direct use for DCC files and chat - just the initial IRC server connection.
How old? I just turned 48.  |

| Bill,
That all makes sense, believe it or not! hahaha...... Now, how old am I? Well to get the answer to that question, I humbly suggest you drop me a private message and we can go from there, since such trivia is surely OT here. BTW, I used to frequent "Malaga Pipes" in Royal Oak when I lived near there. Give me a shout if you are so inclined! 
Jeff

Bay Area | I'd make sure your system is not in DMZ run a port scan from GRC.com to make sure all ports are closed. Check your forwarding page on the router to make sure you have nothing in 6000 port range forwarded.
Then you are pretty safe.

Here is one question I have about this. I'm running one of my computers as a server for mirc. I'm running ircplus on a linksys 4port router. But, I cannot get anyone on the outside to be able to connect. I can connect my 3 other comps fine to the server one on the lan side, but I cannot have anyone else outside the lan area to be able to connect. Any ideas on how to set this up right.
Thanks |

Can't seem to get it to work... After reading the entire thread and trying different things, I still can't seem to DCC send in mirc...and also, if I set port forwarding in more than 1 of the 10 fields, the entire internet connection ceases. What do I do? |
