suspicious problem with botchk cron-script

[Duke]

Hi,

I've been running into a very strange problem with that:

When I run the script from the shell with the command it is supposed
to run from cron:

/home/duke/eggdrop/botchk >/dev/null 2>&1

everything goes fine and bot is started.

But if I let run the exact same command from within cron,
the bot is started, but neither comes to irc, nor accepts telnet connections or anything else. Additionally it hogs 99% CPU usage until I 'kill -9' it.

Anyone got any idea how to solve this ?

Hi

Try using autobotchk =)

This may possibly be a problem with the system itself, that is causing the problems with the eggdrop.

I would sugest refering this to the eggheads.org mailing list, and seeing what they say.
