STARTING BOT IN USERFILE CREATION MODE.
Telnet to the bot and enter 'NEW' as your nickname.
OR go to IRC and type: /msg GPK`SGB-1 hello
This will make the bot recognize you as the master.

Launched into the background (pid: 1676)
I am unable to write to file
Is it because of the rights?

* Warning! Could not write pid.GPK`SGB-1 file!
It's the ` in the bots nick that is causing it.
# Specify here the filename Eggdrop will save its pid to. If no pidfile is
# specified, pid.(botnet-nick) will be used.
#set pidfile "pid.LamestBot"
Simply set your own minus that character.

looks like you don't have the permissions to write any files. Fix that and it'll work fine.
