Other items around this subject has been discussed lately, and one of these has been updated several times in the past 24 hours.
Eggdrop, since version 1.5.3 has had dificulty working with MSDOS, or other batch applications.
The error "can't duplicate input handler" is displayed.
As such, you will likely have to downgrade to a 1.4.* version to make this work.
See some of the other posts for ideas. Have a go at creating a script, and then we may help in trying to make somthing function for you.
