Acknowledging chat request...

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Try setting the my-ip setting in the config file.

Thanks for the suggesstion. I tried that and still no go. I have a feeling my router may have something to do with it.

Thanks anyway

its the nat ip setting in the config perhaps, either way its a misreported ip problem as when you tried to ctcp chat the bot it showed 127.0.0.1

What IP are you placing in the my-ip setting?

If you have a router within your netwokr, you should use the follwing setup.

my-ip should be set to the IP on the machines internal IP, IE 192.168.1.2
nat-ip should be set to the IP of your external IP, the one the router is seen as on the net.
