Eggdrop connecting to a server which requires a password

Hi,

I have now set the hub of my network for only passworded access.

I cannot seem to find within the eggdrop.conf how to get my eggdrop to send a password on connect.

I have the following:

set servers {
servername here:6667:password here
}

However that is just for the bot to identify and not issue a password for access to the server.

Anyone know?

The "servername here:6667:password here" is to make it connect to a specified server: port with a specific password. What exactly do you want?

Actually I have been using that because the bot uses it to identify to nickserv, it does not issue a password to the server on a server which has a passworded allow block.

Ok when I changed the password from it's nickserv password to the server password it connects fine so you are right.

However it would appear that this method is also used for the bot identifying to nickserv, as when the password is changed it fails to identify to nickserv.

So this would appear to me that it's nickserv password and the server password have to be the same.

use init-server in conf to identify to nickserv.. or get a script.. there is many of them in the tcl archive

Hi all,
in network my bot is 'irc.ser.ver:port:password' is used to get bot to use virtual host (host spoof). Maybe that is that you want
