As I am checking things out I fired up X-Chat and told it to connect to EFNet right off the user menu on the tool bar and I get; irc.efnet.net.. irc.efnet.net (199.3.235.130> port 6667 Now logging in Looking up your hostname Found your hostname, cached Checking Ident No Ident response Closting Link: 206.xxx.xxx.xxx (You are not authorized to use this server) Disconnected. How do I configure my Ident response? Thanks, b/web Wade
