Version: 0.19 (using KDE KDE 3.5.3) Installed from: Fedora RPMs Konversation does not connect to sorcerynet due to their servers requiring a ctcp version reply before they send the numeric 001. The ctcp version request comes right after they send the PING command. I managed to connect anyways by looking at the raw log and using this scriptlet: dcop konversation default say 'irc.sorcery.net' '' '/quote NOTICE Auth-C8DFB7E5!auth@nil.imsk :'`echo -e "\001"`'VERSION Konversation'`echo -e "\001"` Naturally the 'nickname ' you reply to is different each connect. It is also different from the argument to the PING command it sends.
Really sorry about this. I somehow managed to ignore *!*@* for ctcp.
