oops I didn't read your post carefully, when you fire up bot using
eggdrop -mn conf you see a terminal window, so you should see what's wrong. Make sure you edited resolv.conf and read http://windrop.sourceforge.net/windropfaq.html
hope it helps

i have read all the faq's but still dont connect to irc.


# This is the bot's server list. The bot will start at the first server listed,
# and cycle through them whenever it gets disconnected. You need to change these
# servers to YOUR network's servers.
#
# The format is:
# server[:port[:password]]
#
# Both the port and password fields are optional; however, if you want to set a
# password you must also set a port. If a port isn't specified it will default to
# your default-port setting.
set servers {
212.241.47.53
}

==================================
that number is making the error, and i'am not shure if it's my ip xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx or the server i connect to thrugh irc on 6667 or what the number should be ?

if i use the 2 dns ip numbers i got when i look at ipconfig /all they dont work. keeps saying "dns resolved failed".

here is a copy of my entire conf file
-----------------------------------------

#! /path/to/executable/eggdrop
# ^- Set that to the directory Eggdrop is in, i.e. "#! /home/lamest/egg/eggdrop"
#
# $Id: eggdrop.simple.conf,v 1.21 2002/07/25 20:44:55 wcc Exp $
#
# This is a sample configuration file for your bot. You will definitely
# want to edit this to set up your bot. Right now, it creates a bot called
# "LamestBot" which sits on the channel #lamest.
#
# IMPORTANT: Remember to make install and cd to the directory it created
# (~/eggdrop by default) before you continue. Running the bot from
# eggdrop1.6.x/ will not work.
#
# PLEASE EDIT THIS FILE COMPLETELY! YOUR BOT WILL NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY IF
# YOU DO NOT CONFIGURE IT CORRECTLY! WE CAN NOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH!
#
# More options can be found in the files in doc/settings/.

# Don't edit the following 11 lines.
set mod-path "modules/"
set help-path "help/"
set text-path "text/"
loadmodule dns
loadmodule channels
loadmodule server

##### Settings:

# Set the nick the bot uses on IRC, and on the botnet
# unless you specify a separate botnet-nick, here.
set nick "_mybot_"

# Set the alternative nick which the bot uses on IRC if the nick specified by 'set nick'
# is unavailable. All '?' characters will be replaced by random numbers.

set userfile "LamestBot.user"
set chanfile "LamestBot.chan"

# This defines where the bot should store temp files.

# Set the default console flags here.
set console "mkcobxs"

##### Uptime module:

# This module reports uptime statistics to http://uptime.eggheads.org.
# Go look and see what your uptime is! It takes about 9 hours to show up,
# so if your bot isn't listed, try again later.
#
# Information sent to the server includes the bot's uptime, botnet-nick,
# server, version, and IP address. This information is stored in a temporary
# logfile for debugging purposes only. The only publicly available information
# will be the bot's botnet-nick, version and uptime. If you do not wish for this
# information to be sent, comment out the following line.
loadmodule uptime

# You have to remove this line to make your bot start.

##### SCRIPTS #####

# This is a good place to load scripts to use with your bot.

# This line loads script.tcl from the scripts directory inside your Eggdrop's
# directory. All scripts should be put there, although you can place them where
# you like as long as you can supply a fully qualified path to them.
#
# source scripts/script.tcl

source scripts/alltools.tcl
source scripts/action.fix.tcl

# Use this script for Tcl and Eggdrop downwards compatibility.
# NOTE: This can also cause problems with some newer scripts.
source scripts/compat.tcl

# This script provides many useful informational functions, like setting
# users' URLs, e-mail address, ICQ numbers, etc. You can modify it to add
# extra entries.
source scripts/userinfo.tcl
loadhelp userinfo.help

##### WINDROP SCRIPTS #####

# Ident script for Windrop by FireEgl@EFnet <FireEgl@LinuxFan.com>
# uses username value for ident name by default
# read the start of script for more documentation
# uncomment (remove # in front of line) next line to activate
#source scripts/winident1.2.tcl

Here is your problem:
set servers {
212.241.47.53
}
This is where you list the ip addresses of the irc server your on.
eg:
set servers {
62.30.30.106:6667-6669
62.30.30.107:6667-6669
62.30.30.108:6667-6669
62.30.30.109:6667-6669
}
Don't put your ip in there, just the irc servers ip(s)
Apart from that theres nothing wrong.
Have you edited your resolve.conf file ?

aha!!! Its not expecting ips. Its expecting hostnames

It should look like this :

set servers {
Blueyonder.uk.quakenet.org:6667
B0rk.uk.quaknet.org:6667
BarrysWorld.uk.quakenet.org:6667
}

(notice this is for quakenet, so you will want to set your onw servers in here. notice also that you should be avoiding using port 6667 if you at all can - check the MOTD for possible port numbers)

Addendum - I would strongly advise against using port 6667 for your listen all as well - its expecting telnet connections on this port, and this is the port that you are using to connect to IRC ... could cause many confusions.

No, it don't make any difference, you can use ip's or hostnames.
and here is an MOTD from by1 on quakenet:
- Welcome to the QuakeNet IRC Network!
-
- You are connected to blueyonder.uk.quakenet.org.
-
- Available ports are: 6667, 6668, 6669, 7000
- Blueyonder Games: http://gaming.blueyonder.co.uk/
- Blueyonder Main: http://www.blueyonder.co.uk/
