check your "set servers" list... and if running netbots check in netset.tcl it overrides the confs server list i believe

If you are connecting to dalnet, use port 7000 not 6667

its set to 7000. the eggdrop set was fine and by default..it goes to efnet. i have edit the eggdrop.config file with:

# Set the default port which should be used if none is specified with
# '.jump' or in 'set servers'.
set default-port 7000

also....

set servers {
irc.dal.net:7000

}

it still goes to efnet...i can telnet and still can see the efnet servers. but when i jump to a dalnet server it will go.

What does that have to do with his problem?

Skoolboy: did you .restart the bot after updating the .conf? If you just add servers and .rehash, the new servers will be added to the server list, but the old will still be there.

Here use this setting.
I am a DALnet user and you need to specifiy
some other ports such as 6668, 6669 etc as 6667 and
7000 as the default ones are mostly busy and difficult
to connect to.

Code: Select all

# What is your network?
#   0 = EFnet (non +e/+I Hybrid)
#   1 = IRCnet
#   2 = Undernet
#   3 = DALnet
#   4 = +e/+I Hybrid
#   5 = Others
set net-type 3

# Set the default port which should be used if none is 
# specified with '.jump' or in 'set servers'.
set default-port 6669

# This is the bot's server list. The bot will start at the 
# first server listed, and cycle through them whenever 
# it gets disconnected. You need to change these servers 
# to YOUR network's servers.
#
# The format is:
#   server[:port[:password]]
#
# Both the port and password fields are optional; however, 
# if you want to # set a password you must also set a port. 
# If a port isn't specified it will default to your 
# default-port setting.
set servers {
broadway.ny.us.dal.net:6668
broadway.ny.us.dal.net:6669
rumble.fl.us.dal.net:6669
rumble.fl.us.dal.net:6668
hotspeed.sg.as.dal.net:6669
mesra.kl.my.dal.net:6668
irc.dal.net:6669
irc.dal.net:6667
}

# This setting defines how long Eggdrop should wait before 
# moving from oneserver to another on disconnect. If you 
# set 0 here, Eggdrop will not wait at all and will connect 
# instantly. Setting this too low could result in your bot 
# being K:Lined.
set server-cycle-wait 10

# Set here how long Eggdrop should wait for a response when 
# connecting to a server before giving up and moving on to 
# next server.
set server-timeout 10

# If the number of servers on the net gets below this number, 
# the botwill jump to a new server (it will assume it's on the 
# losing end of a netsplit). Set this to 0 to turn off. If your 
# bot  is running on any major IRC network, this should 
# probably be turned off.
set servlimit 0

# Set this to 1 if Eggdrop should check for stoned servers? 
# (where the server connection has died, but Eggdrop hasn't 
# been notified yet).
set check-stoned 0

# If you want your bot to exit the server if it receives an 
# ERROR message, set this to 1.
set serverror-quit 1

irc.dal.net doesn't actually exist these days along with a few other servers that apparently seem to be there. A full list of connectable DALnet servers is available on their website and is now updated on a regular basis.

Yes the irc.dal.net pool is sometimes not connectable, mainly they've shut it down due to the recent denial of service attacks. However it might work sometimes on different ports.

But connecting to it is not the best of choices, you can directly try the server aliases.

http://www.dal.net/servers/index.php3

Most of the client servers availiable for connection are:

mesra.kl.my.dal.net
hotspeed.sg.as.dal.net
powertech.no.eu.dal.net
broadway.ny.us.dal.net
jade.va.us.dal.net
dragons.ca.us.dal.net
rumble.fl.us.dal.net

These should be enough... you must be thinking how
I can remember these by hard, well been using DALnet
since 6+ years... so I am familiar with almost everything.
