Yet again with a new twist: DCC Chat hostmask scrambling

Post by tebor »

Hi Community!

eggdrop v1.6.16

Situation:
2 eggdrops on two differant networks
1 network scrambles user hostmask to: scramble.domain.com
Bot eggdrops run on the same machine, static IP no NAT

Hence my router is a piece of junk from Netgear which doesnt do NAT correctly I have to resort to /ctcp $botnick chat

To the eggdrop on the network where there is no hostmask scramble it works
On the network with hostmark scramble it doesnt.

Initially I thout I misconfigured something. So I put the eggdrop with the working CTCP Chat into the network with hostmask scrambleing and it doesnt work anymore. All I see in the console that a CTCP CHAT has been made nothing else (debug is of course all on).

So somewhat it seems bot is trying to resolve something but cant.

Any idea as to what exactly the problem is and a possible approach to solve it?

Sincerely Tebor

might not answer your exact question, but to "unscramble" that hostmask, add a line to the set init-server setting in your conf file adjusting the bot's mode...for example:

Code: Select all

set init-server {
putserv "MODE $botnick +i-v"
}
Change the modes to suit your own needs. This is also an excellent place to store your bot's ident proc with nickserv, if any. :wink:
