Getting really exasperated with this. I keep getting the following error, even though i think i filled in all the parameters required:

Resolving hostname efnet.xs4all.nl.
Connecting to 194.109.129.220.
Connected.
Connecté
Connexion ok
NICK NickoDon
USER NickoD 0 * :
NOTICE AUTH :*** Looking up your hostname...
**
NOTICE AUTH :*** Checking Ident
**
NOTICE AUTH :*** Found your hostname
**
NOTICE AUTH :*** No Ident response
**
461 Nicko USER :Not enough parameters
ERROR :Closing Link: 127.0.0.1 (Connection timed out)
Disconnected.

Here's my on connection code:

procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);
begin
IdIRC1.Host := 'efnet.xs4all.nl';
  IdIRC1.Port := 6667;
  IdIRC1.Nickname := edit1.Text;
   IdIRC1.Username:='NickoD';
    IdIRC1.AltNickname:='NickoDon';

  try
    idIRC1.Connect;   // timeout 60 seconds
  except
    if not idIRC1.Connected then
      begin
        MessageDlg('Error connectiing to ' + idIRC1.Host, mtError, [mbOK], 0);
        Exit;
      end;
  end;
  MessageDlg('Connected to ' + idIRC1.Host, mtInformation, [mbOK], 0);
  //idIRC1.Join(edit3.text);
  button1.Enabled:=false;
end;

As far as i know, i've filled in all the nicknames etc, correctly, so i'm at a lost as to why i'm getting this error
thanks
