Questions

[ice2003]

I was hoping somebody might be able to answer some questions for me.

I have downloaded eggdrop and compiled it onto my box which is running fedora core 4 the compile went well and no errors were reported.

I edited the config file and went through each section of it, now it get intresting what i am doing is i have set up a test bed on my local box so i can test things out before i make things live.

I have unreal ircd running and what i wanted to do is have the bot join then go into a channel from there with a tcl script i have it reports info back to my web site which takes that info and puts it into a sql database.

from there info from the dabase can be used on the website to show some stats as in number of people in the channel ect,ect

my question is can i get the bot to join my irc server which is running on 127.0.0.1 , i put this info into the eggdrops config file.

when i run eggdrop i get the following.

am i right in thinking that is all normal i run eggdrop with ./eggdrop -n

i don't however see it turn up on my local irc server

am i doing something wrong and if so can somebody point me in the right direction. This is the first time i have ever used eggdrop.

obviously you didn't, otherwise you would have removed the [die] line that terminates your bot

Please make sure you edit your config file completely. is there for a reason
