adding eggdrop to another shell

Post by Bytez »

Hi, I currently have 3 eggdrops setup on one shell provider and planning on migrating the hubbot to a new shell provider since this one is probably more reliable. Can I just copy the hubbot userfile over to the new shell account then re-link the other bots to the *new* hubbot? Anything else I should watch out for? Thanks.

Yes, you can, copy the user and chan file over, edit the bot.conf (you will probably use an other IP and vhost) remove the hup from the other bots and add it with again with the new adress and that's it.

1) Copy the hub bot .conf and .user files to the new provider.
2) Edit the .conf file and update my-ip and hostname to reflect the new bot ip
3) use .chaddr to update the new bot address on the leaf bots
4) use .-host to remove the old hub bot hosts on the leaf bots
4) use .+host to add the new hub bot hosts on the leaf bots

Good luck
