However, as you have discovered, these servers require "identd" to be running on your host system. For the mIRC client, if you are running windows, this is enabled by setting it up in one of the pull down menus at the top of the scree (read the documentation for mIRC). For Linux, install the identd daemon software and run it. On Debian for example, it would be: root:# apt-get install identd; /etc/init.d/identd start I am sorry my memory does not allow me to be more specific for windows. I used to use mIRC on it ages ago until I discovered Linux :) Jean-Paul Stewart Senior Systems Engineer CarbonMedia, Inc. 114 East 25th Street Eighth Floor New York, NY 10010 Phone: 212.253.7180 Ext. 1403 Fax: 212.253.8467 On Wed, 10 Jan 2001, Rob Speer wrote: > I think that #lojban would be more popular if it were somewhere besides EFnet. > I've tried all kinds of EFnet servers, and I can't connect at all because of > 'no ident response' (whatever that means).
