Here I go with the inevitably stupid questions again. I attempted to connect via mIRC. I was connecting to irc.undergroundnews.com. It refused my connection. Maybe I'm completely lame, maybe its my configuration. It does connect via 6667, right? I'm no IRC genius (apparently), but It normally works when I connect to other IRCs. What am I doing wrong.... confused

heh your on aol, chances are thats whats wrong,you have to set aol to allow programs to connect to the internet.

when you ahve all that set, go into mIRC and do: /server irc.undergroundnews.com 6667

oh my thats sexy, a woman running nix... What distro if I may?
Posted By: skippy Re: REALLY DUMB question - 05/23/02 05:52 PM
Well, I already have a distro of Mandrake 8.1 (2.4.8). However, I intend to put a partition of Slackware in there as well, because Mandrake isn't exactly tough [censored] (I mean, it's a nice lil' OS, and I have nothing against it.) I might download BSD instead..... or add it to my collective.

All I need now is my goddamned computer!!!
Snail mail shipping takes too long...i wish I could just start setting it up and messing with it already!!!!
