If the hosts, address & ports are correct in each bot and the hub bot has the +h flag set then after a minute or two they will link. Sometimes a bot timing out will prevent linking and then it has to be done manually (which doesn't always work of course).

Hi,

For a start, do everything slowly! :)

When I first setup a botnet, now consisting of 17 bots, I had a couple of attempts at it to get it right. The documentation can be a little confusing if you do not concentrate and try and rush through the process.

The process is helped if all bots on the botnet share a common channel as their hostmasks are grabbed when they are added to each respective bot.

For a start, +h is not set in the bot you wish to have as hub instead, it's set in the bots that you wish to have link to your hub bot. It is also from the hub where you control the other bots, not the other way around. If Blade is your hub then in Eef you would do .+bot Blade and in Blade you would do .+bot Eef.

The command syntax is: .+bot <handle> [address[:bot port[/user port]]] [host]

address is the ip of the bot to add & port is the address which you wish your bot to communicate through. Each bot has to have a different port otherwise you get nothing but confusion. This port also has to be enabled in each bots' config in the "##### BOTNET/DCC/TELNET #####" section.

Here's an example of using the command to add bots into each other (this process is repeated in each of the bots in the botnet):

.+bot Blade 213.197.58.118:3334

In Blade's config you would have: listen 3334 all

In Blade you then add Eef. Set ports at least 10 apart to stop any confusion. It also helps to write down which bot is assigned which port.

When that is done, in Eef you then do .botattr Blade +h (this makes Blade the hub)

Next, in each bot, .chattr <handle> +fo ie: in Blade .chattr Eef +fo and in Eef .chattr Blade +fo.

For information on user flags type .help whois

Eef should then automatically connect to Blade. This does not happen immediately. So, wait!

Any alterations to the config files will require a bot restart.

I hope this helps you :)

[14:19:04] <Eef> [14:18] #vork3# link Blade
[14:19:05] <Eef> [14:18] Linking to Blade at 213.197.58.118:3334 ...
[14:19:05] <Eef> [14:18] Lost Bot: Blade

Each bot has to be assigned a unique port. They cannot all use the same one ie: 3334

If Blade is listening to port 3334 then set Eef to say, 3344 and make sure that in Blade Eef is set to use 3334 and in Eef that Blade is set for 3334. Make absolutely sure that the Blade conf is listening on 3334 and Eef conf on 3344. It can, as I said previously, seem very confusing. It is good you are just starting with two bots. :)

vork3, check out this link:

http://www.egghelp.org/enhance.htm

That's where I learned how to do it, it's very well explained.
You don't need to do all the steps (steps 1, 2, 3, 7, 8 and 11 are enough to make you link your bots).

Good luck

# netjoin <channel>

Also, all bots need to be linked and on the same network. :)
