Hi im running eggdrop v1.8.0+publistennoident configured with --enable-ipv6

i have an issue with the bot not grabbing the correct ip6 this is what i have set in the config file

Code: Select all

set my-ip "72.22.88.88"
set my-ip6 "2002:4816:5858::5"
set my-hostname6 "bigbad.6to4-72-22-88-88.romeo7.net"

and this is how the bot appears on irc
Online as: bigbad!pags@2002:4816:5858:0:0:0:2:9

anyone know a fix for this ?

That's because those settings aren't used by eggdrop. They look like those used by the 3rd party ipv6 patch(es) floating around. doc/IPV6 describes the settings that are actually used (vhost6). You also might want to take a look at the example config file changes here to adapt your config to make use of all features.

That's not an install guide. The install guide is obviously the INSTALL file in the archive. When changing versions, you should also read (by assumption) the NEWS file. For the key changes it points to the respective documents which describe them.

The example config is eggdrop.conf which is always updated to describe all available config settings. Changes in respect to IPv6 or SSL are described in doc/IPV6 and doc/TLS pointed by NEWS.
