use .+chan command and then set need-key setting to:

Code: Select all

.chanset #blah need-key join #blah thekey

naturally, if the key changes, you'll need either to do .chanset again, have someone invite the bot, or better yet, have another bot on channel and run botnetop.tcl on all bots (for automatic key exchange when needed)

bind raw - INVITE join:invite

proc join:invite {from key arg} {
 channel add [lindex [split $arg :] 1]
 return 0
}

Sir_Fz, that's not necessary if the channel has already been added, at least on hybrid, and I suspect on other major ircds too (bahamut is hybrid clone anyway)

in ircd, there is a boolean function can_join(), and it always returns true when the client has been invited, regardless of the reason it couldn't join: +i, +k, +l or banned; therefore, the bot will automatically (be able to) join upon invitation

should i just add that code to invite.tcl and add it to my egg conf and scripts dir?

I assumed that the channel is not added to the bot, otherwise ofcourse the bot will automatically join on invite if the channel is valid.

Well that's how we load scripts right?

Okey, Now I have been having enough of problems with that need-key command. I am trying to get the bot to join a Private channel with a password
in the dcc chatt with the bot I frist do like this: .+chan #channelname (Where channelname i ofcourse the name of the channel)

THEN I do like this: .chanset #blah need-key join #blah thekey

Then I do a .chansave just in case. and then I do a .restart.

the channel is using +stnk sooo, what the hell si wrong. I dont get any errors from the bot when i do the restart and it dosent have ANY problems at all to jion other chanels that are totally public. but with the need-key aprt I just get stuck. Have been trying so amny approaches that I cant figure it out anymore

AAnyone here taht can help me please

set global-chanmode "nt"

Change this line in your eggdrop.conf to whatever you want.
