There's a patch to fix this on the eggdrop files page of egghelp.org.

[sw]

There's a file in your eggDrop\src\compat directory called: inet_ntop.c.

You need to edit this, by going to the egg_inet_ntop(af, src, dst, size) function, and replace it with:

egg_inet_ntop(af, src, dst, size)
int af;
const void *src;
char *dst;
socklen_t size;
{
switch (af) {
/*
case AF_INET:
return (egg_inet_ntop4(src, dst, size));
case AF_INET6:
return (egg_inet_ntop6(src, dst, size));
*/
default:
return (egg_inet_ntop4(src, dst, size));
/*
return (NULL);
*/
}
/* NOTREACHED */
}

This effectively shuts off INET6, and sets your config to INET4 by default.

I don't think cygwin supports INET6 yet...although you're probably better off going to the page Wcc mentioned.

Good luck!

Hm cygwin, isnt this at windrop ?

[FiRe]

No, Windrop is a Win32 compiled eggdrop, an eggdrop on Cygwin (Linux on Win32) is still an eggdrop

[ppslim]

Windrop and "Eggdrop compiled using Cygwin" are one and the same.

Hence why there is a windrop program over at http://windrop.sf.net/ where cygwin has always been used.
