IRC authentification

dax — Fri, 09 Sep 2005 18:52:29 +0000

All of this is true on freenode (I don't know much for other server) :
when a nickname is registered, nickserver!irc.freenode.net@irc.jabberserver send messages for authentification, it says to send

/msg nickserver IDENTIFY password

in jabber message that done by replying (to nickserver!irc.freenode.net@irc.jabberserver) :

IDENTIFY password

One thing that could be good for the irc module of ejabberd is like a user could register the encoding to use for each irc server, a user could register a password with a nickname and the server automatically authenticate when connecting to irc servers.

Yes, but I guess this may differ on what IRC server software is used (I don't know much about IRC). At least I succeeded in registering once. I am not sure how I did it (it is a long time ago), but you need to enter the command in one of these windows that popped up when you joined the room. It might be also possible that I had to remove the slash in the IRC register command. So I guess you should try. If you succeed, it would be nice to hear how you did it as I maybe can document it somewhere. ;-)

The problem is ...

I have found the problem :
by sniffing the packets, the freenode irc server send back :
"Private messages from unregistered users are currently blocked due to spam problems, but you can always message a staffer. Please register! ( http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#privmsg )"

is there any way to support irc authentification (automatically, by sending msg to nickserv works :) ) ?

I have this: {mod_irc,

I have this:

  {mod_irc,        []},

And I am using ejabberd 0.9.8 from the FreeBSD ports.

I have made test with coccillena but I got the same problem, so this should be a configuration error :
I am using ejabberd_0.9.8-1sarge1_i386.deb from http://sgolovan.nes.ru/debian/sarge.
The server host is happycoders.org and this is the mod_irc config line :
{mod_irc, [{host, "irc.jabber.happycoders.org"}]},

is there a debug mode in ejabberd to see xmpp messages ?

I am using ejabberd 0.9.8

I am using ejabberd 0.9.8 and I just tried it with Coccinella:

RMB click on the user you want to open a private chat with.
Select "chat".
Type in the message.
If he replies, a new tab will appear (or window if you disabled tabbed chats).

I have made tests with Psi

dax — Tue, 06 Sep 2005 17:53:18 +0000

I have made tests with Psi and Tkabber but none works :
- Psi <-> mod_irc <-> irssi user
- Psi <-> mod_irc <-> tkabber
- tkabber <-> mod_irc <-> irssi_user

It should work. Maybe it is

It should work. Maybe it is a problem in your client?
