ipv6 patch + eggdrop 1.3.16

i pre-apologize if i'm asking a question about something that's already been covered, but in my search i couldn't find anything that matched exactly, at the very least.

anyway.

i'm able to run the bot fine, it connects fine, joins channels fine. however, when i simply message the bot for ops as the sole user in it's userfile, it won't op me. it's completely unresponsive. also, the hostmask automatically defaults to the last domain added to the box. in #egghelp, i was told to comment out the my-hostname line and add my-ip6.

when i did that and tried to run the drop, i get the following error:

bash-2.05a$ ./eggdrop suni.conf

Eggdrop v1.6.13+ipv6 (C) 1997 Robey Pointer (C) 2002 Eggheads
[02:12] --- Loading eggdrop v1.6.13+ipv6 (Thu Mar 6 2003)
[02:12] Tcl error in file 'suni.conf':
[02:12] Couldn't grab nearby port
while executing
"listen 30012 all"
(file "suni.conf" line 227)
[02:12] * CONFIG FILE NOT LOADED (NOT FOUND, OR ERROR)

is this simply because it's on a tunnel and the ipv6 ip port 30012 doesn't exist? oh wait, let me assure you, i'm a total newbie with ipv6. so any help would be greatly appreciated.

again, all apologies if this post has been previously answered.

When you say the hostmask default to the last one, which hostmask do you talk of?

Are you on about the hostmask inside the userfile, for you?

You have to remember, eggdrop recognises peopel by the hostmask, and not by nickname.

If the hostmask was to change on it's own each time, there would be no point in having it.

You may/will have to add a mask for yourself, so the bot recognises you.

Have you tried telnetting into the partyline, to see if an error, if any, is generated (you may need to add more modes to you console flags, see ".help console" for the list).
