I'm attempting to set up an IRC server using [http://unrealircd.com/download UnrealIRCd]. I downloaded the source ([http://unrealircd.icedslash.com/Unreal3.2.7.tar.gz Unreal3.2.7.tar.gz]), and followed [http://www.networkmagazineindia.com/200109/workshop1.htm this installation tutorial]. It failed with a few different errors which were mainly fixed by removing broken example sections from the config file. It now runs (as under the user ''cbca'') and there are no errors being logged, but the IRC client fails to connect saying: '''nad@irc.organicdesign.co.nz disconnected: Couldn't connect to host'''.
