CricInfo.LO.UK.StarLink.Org is a CricInfo's IRC server. Idea is to get the commentry frm #cricinfo channel and relay it to bots original network/channel.

that must be the dumbest error message ever issued by an IRC server

the IRC server <-> client communication is asynchronous, i.e. you need to handle it with non-blocking, event-driven socket (either use Tcl's mechanism for that - [fconfigure] and [fileevent], or use eggdrop's built-in mechanism via [connect] and [control])

search the forum on the subject, there are plenty of topics elaborating on it; or/and see my script spambuster which, among many other things, does what you need to do - connects a client to IRC server

Hi Demond,

Thanks for the suggestion, I tried the same with [fconfigure] & [fileevent] .. i still get the same error. Nevermind i know i din understand/use them properly :/

Your spambuster was a great help, i succeeded the same with [control] & [connect]. But, i need a lil help checking a proc every minute or 5, to make sure that the socket is connected. Below is what i tried (from ur spambuster's help) :-

[demond]

async comm means you must output to server's socket only in your control proc, responding to server's input

telnet to your server on its IRC port and see what exactly it sends you; my guess is it needs you to reply on PING cookie
