Reconnect blocking

[KHobbits]

Since the three bugs are closely related I'm going to post them as a single post, especially since there is already about 5 bugs related to this one already posted but don't quite address the issue.

Bug1: For some reason even with the current patches if a reconnect attempt fails (can be ipv4 or ipv6) that user will be unable to reconnect untill the bnc is restarted.
Note: Possibly fixed in latest git.

Bug2: sBNC seems to only allow 'x' number of users to be added to the reconnect 'loop' that is, if there is 20+ users to be reconnected, the bnc will only try the first 4 or so over and over until one of those users reconnects. If for some reason a irc server is down, this would prevent other users on the bnc reconnecting.

Bug3:
For some reason when connecting, some event caused the bnc to get stuck reconnecting a single user.

I cannot confirm your first issue: I had a connection timeout while connecting to QuakeNet, yet the user recovered from that and connected on a latter attempt just fine.

I've had it happen on numerous occasions. Every time I restart the BNC I seem to have a different version of these events. Keep in mind that I'm using a post beta 5 release.

This should be fixed by d6fc166c0573b329be7788db2f2d4eda092006c4.

sbnc via commit 34ccf1099c1ff61250990aadae6e55cb7262cee7 (Mon May 26 03:20:41 2014 -0400) still has Bug 3:

One user stuck like this:

[Wed January 03 2018 03:35:11]: Trying to reconnect to [irc.whatever.net]:6667 for user John
[Wed January 03 2018 03:35:11]: User 'John' was disconnected from the IRC server: Connection refused
[Wed January 03 2018 03:35:11]: User John disconnected from the server.

is still preventing all others from (re)connecting.
