He says he has cheap hosting for his server.. I assume he is not payin sumone to host a server on his own pc? 
The reason it won't connect to 127.0.0.1 is cos it's not on his machine... he needs to connect to the ip of the server its hosted on lol.... most of you probably kno that just didn't realise! ;p |

It shouldn't matter which interface is used, unless the IRCd/Services was poorly coded. |
I may be a minority on this, but I think services should only listen on the IP(s) they are told to listen on. Assuming I want to have a service listening on localhost may not always be a good thing. |
To clearify my statement. I have run across Services that will not bind to localhost nor 127.0.0.1. So you would be forced to use another interface such as your internet IP. That is what I refer to by saying "poorly coded".
I too agree that a daemon, regardless of purpose should only listen on the ports/ips it's told to. |

there are a few things to try. What windows IRCD are you using ?
If you use A older Unreal. before 3.1.2 or other windows IRCD server that uses that type of ircd.conf. If you want to Just run and test it locally on /s localhost or /s 127.0.0.1 . You will most likely have to set your P: line.
If you put your internet IP in before the port. it will only bind to that port and only able to use that IP address. Now. if the P: line is P:*::6667 then it will bind to any IP that is free. even 127.0.0.1. Now if you added your internet IP in the P: line. change it to 127.0.0.1 and then restart the ircd. This will only bind to localhost. Now if you are using Hybrid 7 for windows, it is a cygwin port and very stable. But. the ircd.conf to bind the ports is different. You probably are not using Hybrid 7. so I will skip it.
If you are using Unreal3.2 for windows. you should set it up the listen line atleast half decent. here is a example of setting up your listen line. If you are using unreal 3.2. this line will work if you copy and paste it.
If you just want Unreal 3.2 to only be allowed to run locally and not to the outside world. set it like this.
listen 127.0.0.1:6660-6669
{
options
{
clientsonly;
};
};
But the one above will only work on localhost, will only allow clients and no services. This will allow you to connect on port 6660 thru 6669.
Now if you want to be more dynamic. and allow the ircd to bind to any IP at all. Including 127.0.0.1... then.
listen *:6667-6669
{
options
{
clientsonly;
};
};
If you want the IRCD server to connect to one port. and allow the outside world in. then.
listen 66.183.204.37:6667-6669
{
options
{
clientsonly;
};
};
change the IP from our network to yours though.
This listen line though is for the later part of unreal3.2 to 3.2 final. But may work for older Unreal3.2's. If you are using some other IRCD. Tell us what you are using. I don't know IRCu though that well. But any other version. It usually is either the old ircd.conf type file. Hybrid 7/efnet/ratbox style. or Unreal 3.2 style.
If you are using Unreal 3.2 then the lines above will work. They are a copy from my unrealircd.conf file. If it works for you. Nice to hear. if not. You can post here. or pm and I will take you step by step thru the .conf file that you are using.
Enjoy life.

A T2 is not actually that fast, only about 6.3 mbps.

Personally I run a server off of linode.com's virtual servers - all the benifits of dedicated
(e.g. 100M/sec connection to OC lines that run all over the USA and to Europe), but without
paying hundreds of dollars a month for my server
With regards to buying an ircd shell, the best advice is SHOP AROUND!
You can save 80% off the prices some people charge simply by shopping around.
I've had http://www.pyroshells.com reccomended to me, and I also have a paid shell with
http://www.ukshells.co.uk (they're one of the only providers in the UK, bandwith is pricy here)
You very much might want to use an ircd shell for a new server, rather then buying your own T2,
as I immagine you'd only pay $5-$20/month for a good ircd shell, compared to......
goodness knows how much for your own T2 to your house.
