STARTING BOT IN USERFILE CREATION MODE.
Telnet to the bot and enter 'NEW' as your nickname.
This will make the bot recognize you as the master.

You have installed modules but have not selected an encryption
module, please consult the default config file for info.

Don't install/run eggdrop as the root user..

karlmiller · Post by **karlmiller** » Mon Mar 31, 2003 7:33 am

looks like you need to change your file permissions and ownerships

try installing as a normal user
i.e. user bnc

in

/home/bnc/eggdrop

or similar.

The bit about the encryption module appears because the blowfish.so could not be loaded.

So check and change your file permissions and it may work.

Hope This Helps.

That's not what he's doing...installing as root is fine, but then he obviously needs to change some file permissons before trying to run it as another user. Being root he SHOULD have a clue about how things work in the unix world, but he oviously don't.

I suggest reading the error messages

As far as I know/remeber the eggdrop wont let him run as the root user, an error will pop out when will try to do so.

i added the user "bnc" with adduser bnc
then i used a command which told me a friend: chown -R bnc:users *
chmod of der folder "modules" with all files is 777 and eggdrop is chmod 777, too.

it doesnt work :(

chown changes user rights. add what user suits you better and try installing with it the eggdrop, an new one in the /home dir without doing again the chown and chmod commands.

Why don't you just remove the # before 'loadmodule blowfish'? That's what the error message is stating.

There is a lot more involved to thsi eror that you think.

It is not just the blowfish module that hasn't loaded, all the module are no loaded (see the error message in full, not the last 2 lines).

Follow these steps.

As you have done, you created a new user called BNC. This is fine, and exactly what you are supposed to do.

What you have done wrong though, is as root alltogether. As any admin will tell you (or any user that has some form of clue), you should never login as root, unless there is no other way around things.

Once you have done the adduser command, perform the following actions

1: use the "passwd" command, to change the users password. In this case, use "passwd bnc"

2: Logout, and then login as the user "bnc"

3: Download eggdrop

4: Unpack and install eggdrop.

5: Do not use "su -c", login as "bnc" and use start the bot, according to the instructions on www.egghelp.org

I would help fix your current issues, but they are very long winded, and would only end with sombody putting a fist through the monitor.

in my eggdrop.conf without chanign anything:

#### BLOWFISH MODULE ####

# IF YOU DON'T READ THIS YOU MAY RENDER YOUR USERFILE USELESS LATER
# Eggdrop encrypts its userfile, so users can have secure passwords.
# Please note that when you change your encryption method later (i.e.
# using other modules like a md5 module), you can't use your current
# userfile anymore. Eggdrop will not start without an encryption module.
loadmodule blowfish

Now i used passwd to set a password to the user bnc.

i downloaded the files with:
wget http://......../eggdrop......tar.gz

then i unzip the zip archiv:
tar xvfz eggdrop......tar.gz

and while unzipping there is an error :((

Re-download. This just means the file is corrupt.

Chat with ******
Waiting for acknowledgement...

i think there should be written: type password: or something like that.

Because of firewall, router, nat and other issues on both sides of the connection, it may well be that you can't directly DCC chat the bot.

Try using "/ctcp <nickname> chat" replacing <nickname> with the bots.
