As far as I know everything is configured correctly... here is the error that I'm getting.
Received challenge from ***...
Linked to ***
Downloading userfile from ***
CAN'T WRITE USERFILE DOWNLOAD FILE!
Dropped bot: *** (lost 2 bots...
(Userlist download aborted.)
Now, I just thought of this... but the 2 bots that are already linked and sharing are linux bots. While the one I'm trying to add is windows. Is this the problem. Is linking linux and windows bots just not possible?
are you using windrop?? if u are its definately possible as i have a horrible mixture of bots on diff o/s even. windrops links perfectly (even sharing). probably its just some settings? sorry can't help u on that
You have to recompile your 2 unix bots to Handlen32 to share with a windrop. Default settings for nix eggs are set at 9. Windrops are 32.
change the line in the eggdrop.h file in the src directory to Handlen 32. Change nothing else!!
There is a note in the config file as to what this does and where it is.
then do the install thing again. All your user and channel files will remain the same.
thanks for the reply, I would have never thought of that;)
I went ahead and basically reinstalled eggdrop on both linux machines, changing the Handle32 line (before I compiled) to look like this...
#define HANDLEN 32 /* valid values 9->NICKMAX
However... Now when the third bot trys to link I get this
Linking to *** ...

Non-matching handle lengths with ***, they use 32 characters.
