I tried switching to an Undernet server - seems to work ok, Jon! Are we going to try for a chat tonight??

[Steve Moran]

if I followed the directions I am in the chat room right now

[DaKat]

What IRC server did you use, Steve? We'll never find you if we're all on different servers! :confused:

[Steve Moran]

it says undernet princeston NJ

[Steve Moran]

is the gamesnet one working
I have ICQ #28357752

[DaKat]

Gamesnet channels all seem to be throttled - try Undernet: US, TX, Dallas

[Steve Moran]

I must be as dumb as my Mom said I am I can't find a Texas server? :(

[DaKat]

Try going to Files/Options/Connect and look there for a drop-down box with some different channels.

[Steve Moran]

I did all that and I found in the US list
AZ Mesa
CA Los Angleles
DC Washington
GA Atlanta
VA Fairfax :confused:

[DaKat]

Hmmm. When you get as far as that drop-down box, there should be some buttons above it that say Add, Edit, Delete, Sort. Try Add, and then type in the TX channel I gave before.

[Steve Moran]

I have it all in but I think I need the port number do what you told me to do but go to edit and give me the port number please
sorry to be a pain in the butt

[ February 14, 2004: Message edited by: Steve Moran ]

[DaKat]

try 6668,6669 for the port numbers.

Anyone else out there going to try to join in?

[Steve Moran]

I put in a discription of
Undernet;US,TX, Dallas
Irc server
dallas.tx.us.undernet.org
Ports
6668,6669
Group
undernet
and it connected me to Miami Florida :confused:

[DaKat]

Hmm, we're not doing very well, are we? ;)

Try Undernet: US, TX, Dallas again (make sure you use the a colon rather than a semicolon after Undernet. See if that makes any difference)

[Steve Moran]

WOOOOOO!HOOOOO! I am in :D :D :D :D

[Icarus]

Undernet is such a pita to try to connect to at times (esp with dsl)...
hmm...

[LSC SS]

It took me almmost a month to figure it out the first time, NOW you want me to try and get through all that crap, I'll probably end up lost on the internet forever !!

[JoshMcMadMac]

Yea, Kat, this is the problem I had mentioned last week. I knew it would get ugly! lol tongue.gif

[DaKat]

Didn't get ugly - we got in just fine ;)

[JoshMcMadMac]

Well that is reassuring. Is there a new setup for IRC that we should all do?

[Steve Moran]

To any one concerned with this one.
I got in just fine, I didn't enter in the Dallas Texas server either. I entered in via the Miami Fla server and got to the same place.
The Dallas texas server did not come up at all on my computer I typed in all the information and it still did not find it when it was scanning.
I just went to a randon Undernet site and got in to the chat room.
I was doing what many people do and I over thought the process and overlooked the obvious. If there is a selection for using a random site for one company, then they all have the capability to hook together in a chat room. If the address is typed in correctly.

[Michael VII LSC/SE]

Hey I'm a little early maybe but I did undernet through Austin TX and logged in. So are we chatting tonight and am I in the right place? It gave me a host , Princeton.NJ.US.Undernet.Org,

[Steve Moran]

Yes there is a chat going on
:D

[Icarus]

i despise undernet with a passion... :mad:

[Michael VII LSC/SE]

But it's working!
:D

[Icarus]

Not for me...
I refuse to **** around with the stupid servers anymore... :mad:

By the way Micheal heres a good link to info about computers, some great stuff in it (lots to read) smile.gif

[Matt]

I can't seem to get on....


If I may suggest: for future chat that we use the marstracker server, at irc.marstracker.com you'll have to go to add and type that in as the IRC server, then go to #clan-lincolns and you're there..

[DaKat]

It's a little lonely in CHAT tonight - anybody out there????
