If your IRC server is connect to vert and is up for a while, it'll become part of the rotating irc.synchro.net resolution. When that happens, any client that connects to irc.synchro.net might connect to *your* server. Or, some one found your irc server by port-scanning or maybe a BBS listing. Enabling debug-level logging will give you better insight into what that client is doing, but no, I wouldn't be concerned. -- digital man (rob) This Is Spinal Tap quote #41: Ian Faith: It says "Memphis show cancelled due to lack of advertising funds."
