- *** dog5 is mnystrom@patriot (Mika Nystrom)
- *** on irc via server Patriot.mit.edu (Fastest draw in the East)
- *** dog5 has been idle 6 seconds
- It *does* say patriot.mit.edu; that's why I never considered it a major problem.
- I haven't fixed it because I don't have root access and the people who do aren't
- going to. I did the following instead:
-
- [from /scratch2/mnystrom/ircd.conf]
-
- K:patriot::*
- K:localhost::*
-
- So now we get:
- *** Connecting to port 6667 of server patriot
- *** *** Ghosts are not allowed on IRC.
-
- I hope everyone is satisfied.
