@kaniini the setup for your IRC bot seems a bit weird? What exactly is the "target" host and port?
@kaniini oh, uh... your script references 'target' 'ip', but your example config uses 'target' 'host'.
@kaniini likewise your script is looking for 'host' 'hostname', but the example config uses 'host' 'host'
(was wondering why it kept going to the wrong address...)
@kaniini one final little thing: kline_cmd in the example config shouldn't have single quotes around it, I don't think; the single quotes wind up in the output and our IRC server didn't like them
after fixing that I got to sit back and watch the bot do its first ban. thanks <3
the target host/port is an unencrypted (not ssl) destination for the bot to connect to in order to verify the sshd is acting as an open proxy.
