##### BASIC SETTINGS #####

# This setting defines the username the bot uses on IRC. This setting has
# no effect if an ident daemon is running on your bot's machine.
set username "lamest"

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
with regards to that line, do they mean to enter the ident that your eggdrop will use?
like ident@eggdrop.vhost ??
soo it should look like
set username "ident" ?

Yes, that's ident, but it will only work if identd on tha box isn't running.

Running bots on commercial shells, I personally prefer setting it as the same as my login name, so if ident server fails, botnetops will still work, etc.
