Nice, I got around to setting up #ngircd as my #IRC server, forwarded the ports and enabled SSL!

... but the problem is, no other client seems to be able to connect to it, except for #irssi.

???

Until I can have web clients and all connect to it, it's basically useless, because it fails the premise of "access it from anywhere" and reduce phone app dependency (ahem, whatsapp).

What could be the problem?
