DKB it's just the way EFnet works, it sucks but EFnet is better than undernet.

just get your firewall to let port 113 to pass through then get a client that has something along the lines of "enable ident" and it'll be fine.  they say it's for security reasons, but it's so damned easy to fake a ident...

do i need to let port 113 open for both incoming and outgoing? anythign else i might need to kow? its mirc32 or is there a better client out there?

EDIT: hmm requiring 113 to be open for security reasons? isnt that a bit of a contradiction in terms?

there's a LOT of better clients :)  bersirc's good, xircon's nice, and there's a few others. forgot the webpages for them, though.

it's just incoming that has to be open, no outgoing

why not just drop efnet and go with webnet?

I rarely EVER see a netsplit on webnet, and it isn't a fucking jerk about letting you connect.
