Error when linking bots

[Calico]

Hello,
I have got a problem when I want to link 2 bots each other. I see this error message each time I want to link them (I set the debug flag for the console) :

[08:24] Linking to Fraisoo at **.**.***.**:3333 ...
[08:24] net: eof!(read) socket 7
[08:24] net: eof!(read) socket 7
[08:24] net: eof!(read) socket 7
[08:24] net: eof!(read) socket 7
*** [GrosMinet] Couldn't link to Fraisoo.

On the other bot it's the same error message, but with "socket 8" instead of "socket 7"

When they are loading, there is no error message. Do you have any idea ?
Thank you.
Calico.

Try telneting to the ports you assigned and see if you can connect. If not, try another port. Shell servers lock out ports to prevent DoS so you might hafta keep trying ports till you find one open or another bot could be using the port your using

Hello
The bot is on my own computer. If I try to connect to the eggdrop with telnet, it says connection refused. I don't have any firewall that could block the ports. I tried to set another port but it's the same. Any other idea?

Did you uncomment the listen line in the conf?
