Anyone know of a script that can add the bot's IP to the topic?

OR...

Send an onjoin message which includes the IP of the bot?

OR...

Send out a public message to channel evey (hour?) with the IP...

it's a telnet thing..

There are scripts t perform this, other than just relay.tcl, some of which will allow only a single bot to be used. However, they are resource intensive, and due to the way the background of eggdrop works, may result in lots of timeouts on both parts. Well, I've looked for such scripts... haven't f...

Well I said I would let you guys know what I did to fix this....

... I kicked out my roommate and tossed the router in the garbage.

Been looking for awhile, and would like to use eggdrop instead of a perl based bot I found... (http://sourceforge.net/projects/relay-bot/) I have an eggdrop which works great as is... but rather then running another bot, would like to have my eggdrop connect to multi irc hosts at the same time, (all...

If eggdrop can not (yet) run a perl script is there a way to get the eggdrop to run a unix command to trigger a perl program? (I'm thinking of using relay-bot from http://sourceforge.net/projects/relay-bot/ ) and getting the eggdrop bot to start it at it's own start-up or if the nick of the relay-bo...

I think I may have helped myself... The script called automatic has lines in it for users with hostmask containing the characters "?" and "*" I altered these to include "irc" and "127.0.0" which is the case for indymedia's ssl connection.. we'll see if that do...

crap... that should have been indymedia.org

sorry

irc.indmedia.org

(main channel #underground)

Actually I restarted from scratch totally deleted the eggdrop folder, set up the changes, and ./configure from shell.

Same problem.

RE: irc.indymedia.org SSL users end up with the host mask *!*irc@127.0.0.* on the eggdrop userfile The problem is that they then all get recognized as the first user with that hostmask. I have tried to set as the default flag for new users as "c" to solve this with no avail. Other default ...

I know this is going to be another stupid mistake on my part so I'll say sorry now.... I am running eggdrop 1.6.15 on a linux (redhat, 550r, pent 3, 'nough ram etc) Configure, make install etc goes ok... all scripts, settings, flags, etc ok... /msg botnick hello... ok /msg botnick pass somepassword....

I think I found out what I was looking for... I try it out and let people know here what I did. Searching for answers in this forum isn't the easiest thing to do.. Synopsis: I think I need to configure the bot to use the FAKE ip and listen on port, (the ports that are not used by others in my networ...

Ok, secondary problem... I'm behind a router, so I cann't get past the faked IP on irc to dcc the bot/s. I can telnet via 127.0.0.1 and can telnet (I believe, haven't tried yet) via my real IP. But I want users to access the bot/s via dcc. Do I have to set the real IP in the config file? It's not st...

Saw the FAQ with this subject and was wondering if there was a better howto for the same idea? Any links?
