Can't change eggdrops ident

Post by DeLiriuM »

Hello,

I'm running an eggdrop from a slackware 12.0 machine. Everything works fine, but there's one thing that bugs me. I can't change the bots ident, it stays 1001, whatever I do.
##### 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 "test"
I edit this setting, but it still doesn't help.

This setting has no effect if an ident daemon is running on your bot's machine. You pretty much already said it. :) you should check what ident demon is running the shell and change it that way.
