I am installing 1.68 with my old config file, and I am getting this error.

Eggdrop v1.6.8 (C) 1997 Robey Pointer (C) 2002 Eggheads
[00:24] --- Loading eggdrop v1.6.8 (Tue Mar 5 2002)
[00:24] Listening at telnet port 45628 (all)
[00:24] Module loaded: dns
[00:24] Module loaded: channels
[00:24] TCL error in file 'eggdrop.EdGei.conf':
[00:24] no such channel record
while executing
"channel set #SprintPCS +dynamicbans"
(file "eggdrop.EdGei.conf" line 612)
[00:24] * CONFIG FILE NOT LOADED (NOT FOUND, OR ERROR)
>

This is weird, but I've noted SprintPCS

# in 'SPCS.log' put joins, parts, kicks, bans, and mode changes from #SprintPCS:
logfile jk #SprintPCS "logs/SPCS.log"

and the beginning of the channel specifications

# when a ban is set, kick people who are on the channel and match the
# new ban? (ie, they were on the channel before the ban)
channel set #BotHangout +enforcebans
channel set #SprintPCS +enforcebans

logfile doesn't depend on the channel to exist to define a channel specific logging statement.

make sure that you've actually got a channel add #SprintPCS before all your settings. Or even better, take all that static channel crap out of your conf and do it in a telnet/chat as a dynamic chan.

OOOOOOOOOPS.....

you know what, you're right, I knew I had the channel ads in, but I left out "add SprintPCS".

I must have deleted it by mistake, because I know it was there last year, and 3 days ago, when I brushed the cobwebs off of my config file... LOL

Thanks for seeing what I didn't

ok, I got all that stuff set up, but now I can't telnet to him.

I set his port to 45628, and when I try to ssh1 to him, it says connection refused. Should I contact shell provider?

*******I get the 2 mixed up alot, since the way I usually get into my shell by telnet is to use ssh1 and NOT telnet.

My webhost also uses ssh1 and NOT telnet

But I remember I ahve to TELNET to the bot with the vhost I selected...it's all coming back to me now*****

excuse me for being stupid for a while.

why would you want to ssh to a telnet port? and possibly the reason why is a bad hostmask (unless you've just created a new userfile, then that won't be it). also are you sure nothing else was running on that port before you tried to bind your egg to it? you could be hitting something else thats holding the port.

Yeah you're right.

It's been so long since I've done this..

I know why I was ubable to get in, I did not use the vhost, instead I was using the regular address that i telnet into. DUHHHHHHH! LMAO

but now life is great, EdGei is up and running, and if I have any more ?'s , I know exactly where to come...
