After I type /ctcp <BotNick> chat and I accept it tells me:
DCC Chat session
-
Client: X (213.157.162.122)
Time: Fri Sep 06 03:59:38 2002
-
Acknowledging chat request...
DCC Chat connection established
-
DCC session closed

It closes in a few seconds.

/ctcp botnick CHAT is actually same as telneting to the bot, thus the telnet hostmak apply. Did you by any chance play with your hostmasks? Or somehow disabled telnet at all? Also, can you log on the bot using telnet client or /dcc chat botnick?

There are usualy 2 sides tot he problem, try connecting to the bot via some other method and reading what the partyline says about your connection.

If you can't connect, start the bot using "./eggdrop -n config.file.name" which mimicas the partyline.

Some things that can sause this.

Incorrect values for my-ip
Setting my-ip when you should be setting nat-ip
