this might be a very good alternative. one would need to register a second nick on freenode for this i guess. it would still not be easy to detect the IP of a peer, if he was using a cloak. i basically want to expose IP only if user agrees. and detecting IP from inside NAT is not trivial. not sure how i should tacke this. i there some service out there, which can tell me my IP if i open a TCP connection to it ? if you have a solution for this, irc would become my choice i guess ;D -- torben Hohn http://galan.sourceforge.net -- The graphical Audio language _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-dev
