Description Paul Moore 2006-03-08 15:27:28 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.1)
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages
OS:                Linux

Using the Kopete configuration settings I can't set the IRC server port below 1024 which is a problem for me as I need to connect to an IRC server over SSL running on port 994.  I have found that editing the Kopete configuration file by hand works without problem but it would be nice if the GUI would work too.

Patch to fix the problem

I don't think the current MinValue is justified. You can obviously set up an
IRC server with a port below 1024, so clients should be able to connect to such
servers. In XChat and Chatzilla you can also configure ports below 1024.

Any chance of getting this patch merged?
