Connect as serverr

[r0t3n]

Can someone write a little piece of code which will connect the eggdrop to a irc server as a server and not a user, through port 4400. I need this for my irc service script, but i have no clue how to connect the eggdrop as a server and not as a user.

Thanks in advance!

this is an excerpt from my IRC server emulator ircd.tcl

Code: Select all

proc introduce_server {host port password} {
	variable connected
	variable idx; variable myname
	if ![valididx $idx] return
	set connected 1; variable gotpong 0
	log "connected to $host:$port, introducing myself..."
	switch $::ircd::servtype {
		"hybrid6" {putdcc $idx "PASS $password :TS"}
		"hybrid7" {putdcc $idx "PASS $password :TS"; putdcc $idx "CAPAB :LL"}
		"unreal"  {putdcc $idx "PASS :$password"; putdcc $idx "PROTOCTL SJOIN"}
		default {
			log "invalid ircd(servtype)! bailing out..."
			set connected 0; killdcc $idx
			return
		}
	}
	putdcc $idx "SERVER $myname 1 :$::ircd::servinfo"
	putdcc $idx "PING :$myname"
}

Why would you even want to use eggdrop to do that.

to create an IRC network out of channels on other network

I was asking tosser why he wants to use eggdrop to make an IRC Service bot (not an IRCd). I'd use just normal TCL.

(Also, eggdrop cannot connect as server, you can only use a script to create a socket to do it, unless you modify the entire eggdrop source to work differently.)

demond: that code is to connect eggdrop as an ircd, i want the eggdrop to connect as a server, not as an ircd, but as an irc service, not a ircd, a client connected as a server (if you get what i mean).

[demond]

tosser: you are completely clueless on the subject, either give up on it or go learn the IRC server protocol; you don't even know what ircd is, let alone how a service relates to it

to be honest, I've never seen someone else trying to come up with something knowing absolutely nothing about it - not in eggdrop scripting, not in any other area

[metroid]

I know exactly what you mean. I have even written some asuka (ircu) compatible 'services' in TCL (no eggdrop attached, like i said, no idea why you would want that)

Tosser should do his homework first, a client can't connect as a server as it has to go through the server introduction first.
