[Scenario]

Actually, it seems like the actual configuration isn't being loaded. I ran a search on the IRC VPS's IP address, and it didn't find anything. So, now I'm checking the file manually, still not seeing the IP. Even though the configuration is set to allow all incoming/outgoing packets for the IP.

Something VERY interesting is going on here...




RESOLVED. It seems there was a major configuration issue. The problem has seemingly resolved itself.

Thanks for the help, RayW and dugi!
