I'm setting up an IRC server using IRC-Hybrid, I want my server to connect to another server, so that people on my server can connect to channels on that other server. I know this can be done, the GIMP IRC, is the same as the GNOME IRC

My ircd.conf contains the following:

connect { 
        name = "aabstractname";
        host = "128.64.2.1;
        send_password = "somepass";
        accept_password = "somepass";
        encrypted = no;
        port = 6667;
        class = "server";
        autoconn = yes;
        compressed = yes;
        fakename = "irc.sd.dom.asn.au";
};

So when i run: /etc/init.d/ircd-hybrid restart it should be connecting to 128.64.2.1, but the log on 128.64.2.1, doesn't show anything

Do I need entry on the host 128.64.2.1? I can't find any documentation for ircd.conf I'ld really like that documentation so I can check all my settings are right.
