2 Newbie Questions

[ZDarkGoku]

1) My eggdrop bot is not responding to "/msg LiveBot hello" or DCC/CTCP chats.

2) How do I make the bot auto-identify its nickname on NickServ when it logins.

1)Use search function.

2)Use search function.

don't double post, check the replies of your previous post on the same subject in the junk yard section

[ZDarkGoku]

Well... there are almost no posts concerning on DCC/CTCP the eggdrop bot. I've done everything the "Searched" posts said and still can't say "hello" or DCC to it.

[demond]

make sure you didn't unbind *msg:hello (check your config); also make sure you've opened a listen port in the config

[ZDarkGoku]

This is what I have in my config file. I can telnet to the bot with PuTTY on its listen port but I cannot DCC to it or say hello to it, weird. I saw somewhere that it says I need a userfile or something in the eggdrop directory of the shell.

unbind msg - hello *msg:hello
bind msg - myword *msg:hello

try /msg [LiveBot] myword

[ZDarkGoku]

I'm still not getting any reply from the bot.

[Alchera]

You have unbound 'hello' and therefore need to "/msg LiveBot myword"

[Frontier]

You have unbound 'hello' and therefore need to "/msg LiveBot myword"

Being honest here, I have the exact same problem. The bot won't respond to anything but telnet.

After having found this out, I have installed a few other TCL scripts (google, googlescore, etc) - and they work OK (respond to channel triggers).

I'm running the latest windows version on a Win2K3 server. This is an excerpt from my eggdrop.conf:
#unbind msg - hello *msg:hello
bind msg - hi! *msg:hello

Neither hello or hi! works...

Sincerely,
Klaus J.

[De Kus]

have you verified that 'learn-users' is set to '1'?

If ZDarkGokus config paste is still uptodate he is the example of "too stupid to read the comments in the config file".

[Frontier]

OK - got it working now.

I simply changed set learn-users to 1 in my eggdrop.conf file.

I hope this helps other users, having the same problem...

[Derek]

Dang That didn't fix my problem. I still cannot DCC chat w/ the bot. Only telnet works. Anymore ideas?

virtually all possible reasons for that are listed and explained in the top sticky post of this forum
