error while sharing userlist

Post by Apache »

On my botnet with 1 hubbot and 8 leafbots i got an error while sharing the userlist.

All bots are linked correct. But wenn ich want to share the userlist, the list got send and accepted. OK. everything seems to be ok

but after that, all leaf bot got:
getting-users 1

and now no more flags or changes on the userlist will cross the botnet.
I waited for more hours and days, but the status dont change.

My list is about 650 users. Is there a maximum of file- or usersize ?

how to get the status again on getting-users 0

some ideas ?

Have you read Enhancing Your Eggdrop completely? Are the correct flags set for sharing on the hub and leaves? Is the transfer module enabled?

Yes. all modules that i need are enabled

And i read all manuals. Im reading manuals and forum topics since 5 days only, but i cant find any way to change this.

if i reduce the userlist to 10 or 20 users, the status is 0 after the transfer. only with this high number of users.

Mh you think its a damaged transfer module ? I reinstalled the hole hubbot on another server, still the same.
i will try to reinstall the leaf bots also, but i dont know any more solutions. I tested everything i know. When i load this userlist, bot wont getting: getting-users 0.

can it be that the userlist is damaged ? i dont get error, not in partyline, not on logs.

Some other ideas. im at the end with mine.

:? Userfile sharing isn't rocket science, and you seem to be a bright fellow, so let's break this down.
1) make sure any channels you want bots to share information about are set to +shared in each bot's config file.

2) make sure your hub has each leafbot properly added, linked, and given the +s bot flag.

3) verify that all your leafbot's recognize the hub, and that all leafbots have the hub with the +hp bot flags, as well as +s on every channel you wish to share.

4) Carefully read Enhancing Your Eggdrop, which explains all these steps in better detail, as does this document, courtesy of eggheads.org.

As a side note, you might wish to give slennox's netbots.tcl a try, since it is, IMHO, the best damn botnet script ever written, and has built-in sharing functions. :wink:
Hope this helps

My guess is that's a bug - eggdrop doesn't have userfile length limits, and should behave correctly even with somewhat broken userfile - identifying, reporting and refusing to load corrupted records

looking briefly at the source, I think STAT_GETTING flag is not being cleared in your situation (that is, share_end() never gets called or eof_dcc_fork_send() fails to clear it)

you should report your observations to eggdrop's devteam

Thats what i think also.

I have tested so much things, but no solution was found.

I will report it, when i understood the bugreport sheet ;)

Thx @ all
