Eggdrop userlist transfer fail - NAT

Post by airblade »

Hi! I'm running eggdrop 1.6.13 + ipv6 on Linux Debian 3.1 stable.
I'm wondering what ports i have to redirect (NAT), TCP/UDP/Both, when linking bots that shares userfiles?
I have set "reserved-portrange 5830:5850", but this doesn't work.
I have the ports 5800 to 5900 availible for my server.

eggdrop only uses TCP, destination ports will be the bots telnet port and the dcc portrange for the userfile. source port will always be random and should be compatible with any NAT connection.

Okey..
"dcc portrange" - do you mean "reserved-portrange 5830:5850", or is there another command to change this portrange?
thnx anyway

there is only one configureable portrange and that one is only for incoming dcc file sessions (dcc chats are handled via the telnet port).

actually, for outgoing (initiated by bot) DCC SENDs (and userfile transfers)

yeah, sending a DCC SEND actually initiates an incoming TCP connection and thats what I meant :).
