Eggdrop + Bitlbee

Post by TowaKo »

Hi there,
I wanted to combine eggdrop with the bitlbee IRCd to create a chatbot.
Now I'm running into some problems, probably because bitlbee is very "light" and lacks some features of a classical IRCd.
I compiled eggdrop 1.6.19 and edited the .conf to (as far as I knew) fit my needs, now when I try to start eggdrop with

Code: Select all

./eggdrop -m null.conf
it doesn't give me any errors but tells me

Code: Select all

[15:37] === null: 1 channels, 0 users.
what probably is wrong since there had to be at least two users (myself and the bitlbee user).
Additionally, it doesn't join the &bitlbee channel, although the .log says

Code: Select all

[15:37] null joined &bitlbee.
[15:38] &bitlbee is active but has no ops :(
However, I can connect via telnet to the bot, and the bot connects successfully to the server, so I'm probably missing something obvious...

Thanks in advance, TowaKo

Check if you have the suitable net-type setting set in null.conf.
