/CTCP CHAT problem

_fr33man_ · Post by **_fr33man_** » Sat Apr 30, 2005 8:15 am

I'm using an Eggdrop 1.6.17 and am unable to connect to my bot via the /CTCP <botnick> CHAT command.The problem is that when i accept the ctcp reply from the bot i get only 'Connecting...' and that's it.What could be the cause of this and how do you think can i fix it?

Thanks.

the most likely cause:
firewalled ports

in the CTCP case, its the bot that is firewalled. check the portrange setting in the .conf.

I'm having the same sort of problem but I get this,
[7:30pm] -> [thisbot] CHAT
[thisbot ERROR reply]: no telnet port

Can someone help me figure out whats going on here?

You didnt specify a listen port in your config file

Uncomment/edit this line

#listen 3333 all

From eggdrop.conf:

# This opens a telnet port by which you and other bots can interact with the
# Eggdrop by telneting in.
#
# There are more options for the listen command in doc/tcl-commands.doc. Note
# that if you are running more than one bot on the same machine, you will want
# to space the telnet ports at LEAST 5 apart, although 10 is even better.
#
# Valid ports are typically anything between 1025 and 65535 assuming the
# port is not already in use.
#
# If you would like the bot to listen for users and bots in separate ports,
# use the following format:
#
# listen 3333 bots
# listen 4444 users
#
# If you wish to use only one port, use this format:
#
# listen 3333 all
#
# You need to un-comment this line and change the port number in order to open
# the listen port. You should not keep this set to 3333.
#listen 3333 all

Reading is such a life experience.

Telnet is forbiden on that server.

I think that there is some other mistake in config, but Idont know where. Any ideas?

If the config is properly edited and all the needed modules are loading correctly and the bot is connecting to an IRC network AND /ctcp chat still does not work then you're not looking at eggdrop as the problem! One would be looking at firewalls (yours and/or the shell provider) or IRC clients (incorrect settings).
