AW: [IRCServices] Starting Services with TR-IRCD5.

[Yusuf Iskenderoglu]

Hello;

Let me try to explain the solutions to your problems.

This means, that your network already has one services server, and you
try to connect
a second one, which introduces the same nicks: NickServ ChanServ ... so
that they
continously collide, and services runs into introduce_user() loop.

Killing an ircd means, that you did not set up the connect block for the
server
where services connects, on the OTHER server correctly. Linking services
means,
that this server is a HUB, since more than one server is connected to it
(services, and the other server)
This requires you to set 
ishub = yes;
in the connect {} of the other server. Moreover, you have to set the
services
also as a hub, otherwise a /operserv JUPE will cause "interesting"
effects.
Unless you run the ircds in a non-native mode, the protocol will inform
the leaf
server that the services server is U:Lined and is also a hub, so you do
not need
additional connect entries for the services on the leaf server.

This is explained above. Your hub, the server services connects to, must
be declared
as a hub on all of its leafs.
