I fear I'm doing something stupid.

I've compiled and stood up ratbox 2.2.8 and services 1.2.1. The link is up

Quote:

2009/9/29 23.15 ratbox-services started
2009/9/29 23.15 Connection to server canal.acheris/5000 activated
2009/9/29 23.15 Connection to server canal.acheris established
2009/9/29 23.15 Connection to server canal.acheris completed


... and when I connect to my new ircd, I see:

Quote:

*** TARGMAX=NAMES: 1,LIST:1,KICK:1,WHOIS:1,PRIVMSG:4,NOTICE:4,ACCEPT:,MONITOR: are supported by this server
*** There are 1 users and 10 invisible on 2 servers
*** There are 7 operators online


I'm assuming those 10 invisible users are my (chan|nick|memo|...)serv guys provided by ratbox-services. However, if I try to talk with them "/msg NickServ help" I get back a no nick/channel available. Further, when ratbox-services is linked, I'm unable to create channels ("is temporarily unavailable").

My ircd.conf has:

Quote:

service {
name = "canal.services";
};

connect "canal.services" {
host = "192.168.0.1";
send_password = "schmoo";
accept_password = "schmoo";
port = 5000;
class = "server";
};


And my ratbox-services.conf has:

Quote:

serverinfo {
name = "canal.services";
sid = "01B";
description = "ratbox services";
vhost = "192.168.0.1";
reconnect_time = 5 minutes;
ping_time = 5 minutes;
ratbox = yes;
client_flood_max = 20;
client_flood_max_ignore = 30;
client_flood_ignore_time = 5 minutes;
client_flood_time = 1 minute;
allow_stats_o = yes;
default_language = "en";
};


I'm sure I'm doing something stupid, but the logs aren't really helping much. The most interesting thing I see is (in serverlog):

Quote:

2009/9/29 23.15 Link with canal.services[ratbox@192.168.0.1] established: (TS QS EX IE ENCAP SERVICES) link
2009/9/29 23.24 Link with canal.services[ratbox@192.168.0.1] established: (TS QS EX IE ENCAP SERVICES) link
2009/9/29 23.25 Server canal.services[ratbox@192.168.0.1] closed the connection
2009/9/29 23.25 canal.services was connected for 44 seconds. 0/0 sendK/recvK.


So I have a link but no data going across it... so... what am I doing stupid? I'm sure it is something egregious.

I'm not very fluent with ratbox (or ratbox services for that matter), however I notice you don't mention a password in your ratbox-services.conf (nor do you a port), and your ircd.conf excerpt doesn't mention the sid you mentioned in ratbox-services.conf (I assume the ratbox-services sid is akin to UnrealIRCd server-numeric, feel free to correct me - i'm probably 80% wrong here... :S)

actually, I left that out. If it helps (from services conf):

Quote:

connect "canal.acheris" {
host = "192.168.0.1";
password = "schmoo";
port = 5000;
};

Do you need to add a services-server url to the config so it knows where to send services messages like in UnrealIRCd? For example:

UNREAL - services-server services.domain.tld;

RATBOX - { name = "<ratbox-services's server name>"; };

actually, I have that too (it is hard to figure out how much of the config to post)

From my ircd.conf:

Quote:

service {
name = "canal.services";
};

connect "canal.services" {
host = "192.168.0.1";
send_password = "schmoo";
accept_password = "schmoo";
port = 5000;
class = "server";
};


People have mentioned unreal a few times, is that easier to setup? This is a low load IRC server, so simplicity trumps performance.

Yep UnrealIRCd is much simpler to install and configure, InspIRCd is superior though, but if you are more worried about simplicity then yep i'd go with UnrealIRCd mate. If you require assistance pop onto irc . chatchaos . co . uk and I will help you with installing. Smile

I figured out the problem I was having with Ratbox services. Out of the box nickserv is disabled... the others were working just fine, I just didn't try them first :p
