[18:48:43] <n1_> good question mulita
[18:49:14] <mulita> does it happen to you too, n1_?
[18:49:32] <n1_> it has done

[18:49:56] <n1_> yup, doesn't show up
[18:50:20] <mulita> Phew! I was thinking my setup was broken, but no!
[18:51:31] <n1_> might have been a mode set when we were having problems with spam the other day
[18:51:35] * n1_ pokes Deucalion
[18:53:39] <TheMightyBuzzard> n1_, mulita, it's set +s because of an annoying bot someone's been using to spam channels here. it's a temporary measure and should be gone in a week or so.
[18:54:02] <n1_> thats what i assumed
[18:54:40] <mulita> ok, thank you for the info.
[18:56:13] <mulita> Also, I could not connect with SSL to port 6697, is that normal or my setup is at fault (I'm running on vintage Mac OS X 10.4)?
[18:56:44] <TheMightyBuzzard> you may need to set it to accept invalid certs since we use a self-signed one
[18:57:53] <TheMightyBuzzard> we have a valid cert but the guys that take care of the irc end of things prefer the self-signed one for some reason.
[18:59:43] <mulita> all right, I'll log off and try reconnecting with SSL

[19:07:48] <mulita> Colloquy 2.3 has SSL option, but no option to "ignore invalid certs"; Colloquy 2.3 does not connect with SSL to irc.soylentnew.org
[19:08:01] <TheMightyBuzzard> ahhh, okay
[19:08:17] <TheMightyBuzzard> i'll try again to talk Deucalion into using a real cert next time i see him.
[19:08:38] <mulita> X-Chat Aqua 0.16 has the "Accept invalid SSL certificates" option, but it also cannot connect with SSL to irc.soylentnew.org
[19:08:56] <mulita> I guess the OpenSSL library in Mac OSX 10.4 is too old
[19:09:04] <chromas> Try another port like 7000
[19:09:06] <TheMightyBuzzard> if it's really a deal breaker try hexchat. i know it can connect.
[19:09:26] <TheMightyBuzzard> hexchat is x-chat forked and still updated
[19:10:30] <mulita> not a deal braker at all, I just want to see what I can do with this iBook G4 laptop nowadays.
[19:13:03] <TheMightyBuzzard> aight, well if you're satisfactorily functional i'm gonna go have my ritual, post-fishing trip nap then.
[19:13:40] <mulita> thanks for your help TheMightyBuzzard

[19:15:55] <mulita> with X-Chat Aqua 0.16 I get this when trying to connect with SSL and the option "Accept invalid SSL certificates": Connection failed. Error: SSL handshake timed out

[19:16:28] <TheMightyBuzzard> huh, sounds more like someone's actively interfering with you connecting than a bug then.
[19:16:32] <mulita> I think the OpenSSL library in Mac OS X 10.4 probably does not support TLS 1.x or some such
[19:16:39] <TheMightyBuzzard> possible
