Unable to connect to Coldfront

August 25th, 2007, 03:16 PM

I'm currently trying to log onto Coldfront from the FSU campus. Now apparently FSU is supposed to block IRC access, but I can get onto irc.esper.net and irc.sorcery.net just fine.

I've gone through multiple ports on coldfront, trying to get on but I keep getting the same error:

* Looking up irc.coldfront.net
* Connecting to irc.coldfront.net (72.20.17.143) port 6669...
* Connection failed. Error: Connection refused

Any help would be appreciated (currently using X-chat client).

Thanks.

* USA - frozen.coldfront.net ports 6667 and SSL on 7778
* EU - ice.coldfront.net ports 6667 and SSL on 7778
* USA - subzero.coldfront.net ports 6667 and SSL on 7778
* USA - storm.coldfront.net ports 6667 and SSL on 7778

irc.coldfront.net is a round robin for all of those

You have the wrong ports

Unfortunately, port 6667 produces the same error and 7778 produces:

* Connecting to irc.coldfront.net (72.20.17.143) port 7778...
* Connected. Now logging in...
* Disconnected (Connection reset by peer)

continuously.

try ice.coldfront.net port 5556

are the other networks on the same port as CF? if not then your school is blocking it.

Thanks! The ice server works perfectly.
