Problems in userfile sharing

pete · Post by **pete** » Tue Feb 04, 2003 4:51 am

Hello...

I have to bots. Each other are different servers and box, which conns are 512/512 adsl.
If I put these to bots to same box and try to share userfile, it works, but if I put another to other box, it won't work. I have increased timeout and everything.
Hub says:
[10:47] <Apina> [10:47] Creating resync buffer for Maila
[10:47] <Apina> [10:47] Sending user file send request to Maila
[10:48] <Apina> [10:48] Timeout on userfile transfer.
[10:48] <Apina> *** Disconnected Maila (timed-out userfile transfer)

and other says:
[10:50] Linking to apina at xxxxxxx:3000 ...
[10:50] Received challenge from apina... sending response ...
[10:50] Linked to apina.
*** Linked to apina
[10:50] Downloading user file from apina
[10:50] Failed connection; aborted userfile transfer.

That's it. I have tried the debug modes and everything, but I don't understand nothing about them.

Userfile transfers do not take place on the same port as botnet connections.

As such, if the reuired posts are not set to forward on your DSL routers, than it will not function.

yes I know that, but do I need port forwarding if I run eggdrop in the router? I think I don't need it.

This all depends what IP address is assigned to the router.

The fact you stated running on the router, means you are using a PC as a router.

How is the machine connected to the internet?
Via a USB modem, PCI modem, seperate ethernet modem.

If PCI or USB, then make sure no firewall is running.

If ehternet modem, things are a little tougher.

What IP is assigned to the router (on the interface connected tot he modem). Is is a public IP, or a private IP (See the IANA site for information ont he private IP ranges).

ok.
I have a situation like this...

This Computer ----- Linux (Rh 8.0) router ---- Internet
192.168.0.2 -- 192.168.0.1 (eth0) dynamic-ip (eth1) -- inet

eth1 is a TW-300B internal ADSL-modem and it gets ip from my ISP (dhcp). Usually 80.223.229.x. My ISP says that this ip is public, so it isn't natted or anything else like that.
I am running glftpd too and it works fine (passive ports and so on)

Does the eggdrop send it's userfile via dcc? So it opens a new port for transfer.

and dcc works fine to the bot in other box. I loaded module filesys and sended one file to it via dcc and it worked fine.

set my-hostname "xxxx.com"
