Hi.
After many time I've set up the eggdrop and I can connect to it with telnet (I've registered also my nick to it).
I really don't know what to do.
Can be a problem of IPV ?
Tnx for the answers.

If you see a lot of disconnects due to "permission denied", that simply means that the irc server you've added to your server-list does not accept your eggdrop. Try using a different server, or contacting the irc server admins for help.

And I can't hask help to the shell service....because they never answer!!!!!

Well, the only other source for "Permission denied" would be if the kernel returned a "EACCES" error when your eggdrop tries to connect the socket used to connect to your server.

Do you by any chance get any Warning messages prior the Permission denied error?

Hi.
No, unfortunately I don't have received any other error message.... only this, and after try to connect to a IRC Server.

That pretty much narrows it down to the connect() function call in open_telnet_raw()..

Taken from the connect() manpage:

EACCES, EPERM
The user tried to connect to a broadcast address without having the socket broadcast flag enabled or the connection request
failed because of a local firewall rule.

Since you've tried multiple servers, that pretty much leaves local firewall rules, or possibly SELinux being retrictive..
