Question: Clones

[zelda3x]

Are 2 connections from the same ip allowed? i use the DKS Canadian EFNet Client Server

Some servers allow you to, it depends from server to server, but mzima.net and he.net let me do this. Just try it and see

irc.dks.ca's motd clearly states:
* no abuse (clones, flooding, spam or mass advertising).
So I won't "clone" on that server.
/motd <servername> to get the motd and rules of the server.

Deww: So I won't "clone" on that server.

So, does that mean you clone on other servers?

./slap

[munky]

different servers have different definitions of clones

i usually allow 2 user@host, 3 user@vhost. if you have 3 or 4, respectively, you will get d/klined. some servers are more strict, some are less. if the motd doesn't state the limits, check the /admin [server.name] contact and ask them specifically. be sure to include your reason for wanting clones/vclones.

Also note that almost every server will ban you if you have 4 or more connections networkwide from the same user@host.
