Bear with me as i am a RAW Newbie to all this and helping someone out.
We have a Trivia Bot from windrop into Bigpond servers and we need to be able to identify the bot nick. I have edited a passwurd script obtained via here but it didnt work. I can only imagine the script ran before the bot logged into the server. Question - where do i put the nick identify commands and what is the proper syntax.

Thanks all

look for this in your eggdrop.conf, and alter it to suit your needs

thanks yoohoo let you know how I go (have edited the conf file and sent to friend)

here is the part of the script

we still get the bot signing in ok but then going to guest

please advise

# This is a Tcl script to be run immediately after connecting to a server.
bind evnt - init-server evnt:init_server

proc evnt:init_server {type} {
global botnick
putquick "MODE $botnick +i-ws"
putserv "PRIVMSG NickOp: Identify password"
}

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

# 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.


# 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 {
# nsw-chat.bigpond.com:7000
}

Couple of things need to be understood. The actual problem you have isn't clear. Is the bot connecting to the server? Is the ident setting to guest? Why is the only server you have listed commented out? I guess what we need to know first and foremost is what is the exact problem you are encountering? If you are completely lost, post your conf file here, inbetween code tags, and explain fully what is going on. As for the settings you posted, they should look something like this:

putserv "PRIVMSG NickOp: Identify password"

you dont mean

putserv "PRIVMSG NickOp :Identify password"

?

[Dave_Melb]

The bot does log into the server as the nick jbot

then it changed to Guest after 60 seconds

i am trying now and will advise

[Dave_Melb]

OK

I changed to putserv "PRIVMSG NickOp :Identify password"

and all works now

thanks everyone for your patience and help

cheers
