[Mar 20 00:21:51 2003] unknown message from server (ERROR :Closing Link:  by BridgingTechnology (Cannot connect a server to a user port))

This means you are trying to connect your server to a port that has been specifically designed for users, i'm not too sure about the workings of IRCu, but i'm guessing you need to either: 

a) remove the C from your P:Line's "<status>" section (check the manual)
b) Create a new port that allows server connections (once again, check the manual)

<small manual snippit>
# [P:lines]
# Defines listening ports and the type(s) of connections they will accept.
# P:<IP-mask>:<address>:<status>:<port>
# <status>	Defines what types of connections are allowed to this port,
#		<status> can be either or both of 'C' for clients, or 'S'
#		for servers. Optionally a trailing 'H' can be specified,
#		denoting that this port is hidden (will not show up in /STATS P).
#		If the 'H' flag is used, it must be the last character listed.

# Examples:
# The default port clients connect on
P::192.168.10.11:C:6667

# A hidden port for hubs to connect on, on a different interface
P:192.168.10.12:SH:4400
