I have problem with this binding. I tried this out:

bind lost - * file_lost

proc file_lost {hand nick path transferred length} {
putlog "$hand $nick $path"
putlog "$transferred"
putlog "$length"
}

I was just wanting to show what are those variables are about when i send the bot some file and cancel the sending to create a lost in send connection with the bot. But when i did a .binds in DCC Chat, it was not triggered at all. Transfer module is loaded. One thing i'm not very sure is the <mask> thing. What is the mask means? The hostname of the person sending the bot the file? Or some other things? Please advise thanks

It is not allways the LOST bind that is called in these situations.

It depends on the client being used, and a few other things.

The TOUT bind may be called, rather than LOST.

I know... but this is from the log:

[21:35:20] <***> [21:59] CTCP DCC: SEND file.exe 3413996706 64796 3343769 from Squa|| (squall@bb-203-125-116-162.domain.com)
[21:35:21] <***> [21:59] DCC connection: SEND file.exe (Squa||!squall@bb-203-125-116-162.domain.com)
[21:35:23] <***> [21:59] Lost dcc send file.exe from Squa||!squall@bb-203-125-116-162.domain.com (5016/3343769)

So I think it is the LOST bind, but i think will try the TOUT later on. May i know what is the mask inside the LOST binding meaning? the hostname of that particular sender? i tried bind lost - * proc ; bind lost - *!*@* proc ; bind lost - *@* proc , so what is needed for the mask if i want to use the the LOST bind?

Just checking, but you have made sure the script loads (place a putlog at the base of the file).

In adition, it looks like the mask is the handle of the user.
