 |
|
I'm trying to share some files i have at home to my work's pc via SSH and IRC. I'm using irssi as a client at home, and mIRC at work.
So, sending files from work to home works just fine, but the reverse does not. I have all ports set up correctly, the home IP on Irssi set correctly as well (i'm behind a NAT), and still no dice. I just downloaded XChat for Windows, and whenever i try to send it a file it complains:
| Code: |
--- Received a malformed DCC request from Lys_HOME.
--- Contents of packet: DCC SEND xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ®Å®Å 5025267
|
xxxxxxxxxx being the filename, the last number the filesize, and the middle garbage i presume the port (which i've set to 6000). Does this look like a bug to anyone? I had no luck looking for this on the net.
The irssi version i'm running is 0.8.6 (the latest available on Portage). |

There is "bug" in irssi in wich if you have the "dcc_send_replace_space_with_underscore" set to ON mIRC won't be able to receive the file. This has to do with the way mIRC and irssi replace the spaces in filenames.
Me and and a friend have been toying with the irssi sourcecode for some time but came to the conclusion that the problem is on mIRC side.
I won't garantee that this is your problem, however try setting that to OFF and try resending the files to see if it works |

I had it OFF, but setting it ON spitted something weirder on the XChat side:

| For some reason beyond me, it works just fine if you specify the filename between " 's - i found out after i tried to send a file with spaces in it's name. Weird... |
