To use a script, you need to use the listen command to open a port for a script.

You pass this command a third argument which states which script to use.

See tcl-commands.doc for further information on it.

As for making a DCC session (by the way, it is a DCC chat), you do need a CTCP command. The format is

\001DCC CHAT chat <formatted_IP> <port>\001

You replace the two items in <> with two seperate values.

For port, you use the port specified in the listen command.

For the formmated_IP, use the return value of the "myip" command.

It is a IP converted into a integer, the same as that used in the script I posted to test if a IP was from a private LAN.

If still unsure how to proceed, egghead has set up an example script
on his website I believe.

No, when making a DCC chat to somebody, that person is infact connecting to you, and not you to them.

Thus, when you initiate a DCC chat, you first open a listening port through which they can connect.

Next step, you send them a request using the CTCP message above. EG, if the port is 5689, you would use somthing like this in Tcl

Code: Select all

puthelp "PRIVMSG $nick :\001DCC CHAT chat [myip] 5689\001

This tells the user you wish to DCC chat. If they accept, then there client will attempt to make a connection to the IP sent in the message, to the port in the message (5689).

OK.

Somthing needs clearing up here.

Do you wish to connect to them, or them to you?
