288744 - Chatzilla will not allow me to send commands untill it recieves a server ping

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(Other Applications :: ChatZilla, defect)

Description

[workman161]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.6) Gecko/20050323 Firefox/1.0.2 Fedora/1.0.2-1.3.1
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.6) Gecko/20050323 Firefox/1.0.2 Fedora/1.0.2-1.3.1

With the night-light irc proxy (http://www.ircproxy.night-light.net/), it does
not send a ping at all, because it handles the pinging of the other server
(dynastynet.net) by itself. This is a problem, because chatzilla will not allow
me to send any commands untill it recieves this ping, but the proxy does not
send the ping, so its impossible to use chatzilla with this proxy program.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Get the proxy
2. Run the proxy with any kind of configuration
3. Attempt to connect to it
Actual Results:  
It fails to continue to 'connect', even though it is connected.

Expected Results:  
Continuted to connect, and let me send the commands required to run the proxy.

Pings are unrelated.

ChatZilla does not consider itself connect until the 001 message numeric has
been recieved. If your proxy is not sending this, your proxy is completely going
against the IRC protocol specification and needs fixing.

Some useful information, e.g. network communication trace, would be useful if
you don't want me resolving this bug INVALID.

Thanks.
