PSY BNC

[kany]

HI i have psybnc on my shell. But it goes down really quick. but when i see is the processes it is still running while it cannot be connected though . only when i restart it then it works again.
BTW i have installed crontab for it.
Thanks

Goes down?

Its probably being glined from the network or something else.

Can you see it on irc?

[kany]

No it cannot be seen on irc , I just can't connect to psy, not the network. but when i checks in the shell through the ps x command its still running.
Only when i kill the process and restarts it does it again comes online and the nicks on the psy join the channels they were on.

Anything in the logs?

This moment I don't use IRC processes (because I-lines, dinamic IP etc... issues) but in past I had OFTEN same "problems" as kany mentioned. It isn't g-line, k-line or some other irc network issue. Everytime when something goes wrong with polarhome line (ddos for example) and it returned back I saw that my psyBNC "hangs" somehow. It was still listed as process in "ps x" but I was forced to restart it so that I made it really "alive". Well, it's not hard to do:

kill -9 ****
cd psybnc
./psybnc

..so I didn't report this, but since kani already mentioned...

Well there is nothing in the logs.

cd psybnc
./psybnc

Well its not about how hard or easy it is but its a constant irritaion as you try to connect to PSY and its doing nothing and you have to restart it all the times.

I am having my psybnc on redhat . Does any one else run a psy on redhat ?

I've had the same problems with my PsyBNC on FreeBSD. Sadly I have no idea what goes wrong. The "hard" restart always worked. Seems to be a common issue with PsyBNC.

WEll it seems like no body has a solution to it though.
