i get this erro msg when doing /ctcp botnick chat help and the erro comes
no telnet port
Im a real noob so please help (or re do the ports below to help me
# If you would like the bot to listen for users and bots in separate ports,
# use the following format:
#
# listen 3339 bots
# listen 6667 users
#
# If you wish to use only one port, use this format:
#
# listen 3339 all
#
# You need to un-comment this line and change the port number in order to open
# the listen port. You should not keep this set to 3333.
#listen 3339 all
Well, that would depend on what restrictions and which port number you'd like your bot to use.
For the /ctcp chat feature to work, you'll need a "user"-port, which is provided by either "users" or "all". The difference between the two, is that "all" also permits botnet connections on the same port.
# listen 3335 bots
# listen 6667 users
#
# If you wish to use only one port, use this format:
#
# listen 3335 all
#
# You need to un-comment this line and change the port number in order to open
# the listen port. You should not keep this set to 3333.
listen 3335 all
It sounds to me like you forgot to stop/kill your old instance of your eggdrop before starting the new one. Simply running the eggdrop binary will not stop any currently-running instances of it; you'll have to either terminate it using the dcc partyline command .die (in your case, you'd have to use /dcc chat for this), or use the kill command on your shell (such as kill -9 pidofbot, where pidofbot is the actual process id of the running eggdrop. See the ps command for this).
Okay i have killed them all, and then restarted it by cd eggdrop ./eggdrop and only one eggdrop connected this time on port 6667 so i think thats okay the only thing is now the bot wont listen to any commands i do, do you have msn it will be easyer or team viewer ? im very noobie im sorry
i acturly done it now it lets me ctcp with them and everything the only thing now is how do i get the bot to save the channle its on so when it connects again it joibs that channel
