Thanks Chandra. I will try to see if that is a firewall problem. Rajaram Suryanarayanan | Team Lead | ES7000 Linux Systems Group Unisys Global Services -India | 'Purva Premier', 135/1, Residency Road, | Bangalore - 560 025 | +91-80-51594560 Do your best. Leave the rest to Linux.

Here is what i got(looks same as yours): ------------------------ Perl interface loaded Python interface loaded * Looking up irc.oftc.net * Connecting to irc.oftc.net (161.53.160.99) port 6667... * Connected.

I would > cross check these things in my xchat client. Yesterday was the first time i used xchat. Here is what i did: - invoked xchat - added a new network "oftc - edited that network ("oftc") - changed "nameserver" to "irc.oftc.net". left port # 6667 alone - closed the edit window - selected the network("oftc") - pressed the "connect" button It connected happily. May be it is the firewall. Can you try to connect from outside the firewall ?
