I get this when I try to start eggdrop:

Code: Select all

 ./eggdrop -m mastah.conf

Eggdrop v1.6.15 (C) 1997 Robey Pointer (C) 2003 Eggheads
[01:37] --- Loading eggdrop v1.6.15 (Sun Jul  6 2003)
[01:37] Module loaded: dns
[01:37] Module loaded: channels
[01:37] Module loaded: server
[01:37] Module loaded: ctcp
[01:37] Module loaded: irc

Err I didn't quite understand your meaning..

Did you mean this?

Code: Select all

#### BLOWFISH MODULE ####

# IF YOU DON'T READ THIS YOU MAY RENDER YOUR USERFILE USELESS LATER
# Eggdrop encrypts its userfile, so users can have secure passwords.
# Please note that when you change your encryption method later (i.e.
# using other modules like a md5 module), you can't use your current
# userfile anymore. Eggdrop will not start without an encryption module.
#loadmodule blowfish

Again, what is the function of the "#" at the start of that line?

What is the function of a "#" in general at the start of a line in the configuration file?

By reviewing your own config file and comparing the lines that start with a "#" to the lines that do NOT start with a "#".

well, what egghead is trying to explain for u, is that the "#" stops the functioning of the line. so here the blowfish module is not loaded, so all u have to do is to remove the "#" for the #loadmodule blowfish, so that the blowfish module will become loaded.

so now u know that the "#" is used when a line is not needed to be read by the eggdrop.

Heh.. I figured it out by my self, but it took some time.
I removed that "#" and now my eggdrop is running.
Thanks for replying.
