aah. well, i have the same sort of problem, from the other side. im a user, and if i connect to my own/lw server, im unknown everywhere. however, vcmp identifies my ip, its just the script that doesnt like me.i was trying to login as admin (!set admin). no hope. i wondered, if its my name that irc does not like (=RA=Phil_Cassidy) i changed it, removed set=1 out of vcmp.ini, and connected, still unknown. same on lw, only without the admin stuff
