Year 10 Day 277 14:30	IRC trouble
Shane Tayjer	I've beeen having some difficulties connecting and the mIRC forum suggested that I try to connect to the SWC server with the IP address instead of the domain name. Is there anyway I could get the IP? ____________

Syn	208.185.81.234 But depending on the problem you'd likely have better luck trying a different port or ensuring IRC isn't being blocked by your firewall. ____________

Shane Tayjer	What port would you suggest for a connection at a university? I know of one guy that was able to get through with port 1080, but it didn't work for me. ____________

Mikel von Bianchi	My university last year ended up blocking every port except 80 for the internet, so the only thing that worked was using a CGI client hosted on a website. Google should help you find an open one where you can change the server to connect to. ____________ [19:48] .Zhao> Items know they're inside me

Ryan Roche	Well I'm trying to log into mIRC but I fail. Every time I click on connect it immediately disconnects, saying "dns pool" next to it. Is it for everyone or just me? ____________ ~Ryan

Kendall Holm	DNS pool is not an error. It means that your IP is assigned at random from a pool, nothing to be concerned about. We need to know more about the problem any other messages or what not ____________

Shane Tayjer	Can you tell how to fix a session limit? I'm using the online client Mibbit to connect, but more often than not I'm blocked because of a session limit. ____________

Year 10 Day 290 0:43	IRC trouble
Togan Jano	It's nothing you can fix since Mibbit connects all of its users through the same IP. Most IRC servers have a session limit that prevents too many connections from the same IP (as usually one is sufficient). We highly suggest you use a different downloadable client (e.g. mIRC, XChat, ChatZilla) to connect or use the java IRC client provided by SWC. ____________
