 Posted: Tue Jul 10, 2007 1:43 pm Post subject: DCC problem? |
 |
|
Whenever I try to start a DCC chat with my bot, it always gives me this message:
| Code: | Chat with ********
Waiting for acknowledgement... |
...and nothing happens. I've tried to get it to start a session with me, but then I get this message:
| Code: | Unable to connect
-
DCC session closed |
Any ideas? |

try
/ctcp botnick chat
(substitute "botnick" with the nickname of your bot) |

I'm going to guess that your client is mIRC (seems most popular client).
Check your DCC port range fond in Options->Connection->Options->Advanced, make sure the range includes the same port your bot is using (bot port has to be located withing "first" and "last" setting). |

Hi spacemud
I was facing the same problem you described, until i resolved it. Now i can /dcc chat the bot and it works always. Here is what i did with my Mirc client :
On Options ----- Local Info : i checked "LOCAL HOST" for the always get on connect, and "SERVER" for the lookup method
Give it a try. |

Thanks for the replies guys. 
However, I've tried them and none of them worked. Do you think I should try reinstalling the eggdrop? |

it's not the eggdrop
kill the bot and restart with -nt switches so the bot stays in forground and you can see what happens over the console
after it's restarted attempt DCC both ways (initiated from you, and initiated by bot), the -nt switches will allow you to see what the communication problem is |

Hey HQ! My name is spaceBot and I am running eggdrop v1.6.18, on Linux 2.6.19.2 -grsec.
Local time is now 09:44
Use .help for basic help.
Use .help <command> for help on a specific command.
Use .help all to get a full command list.
Use .help *somestring* to list any help texts containing "somestring".
Have fun.
Commands start with '.' (like '.quit' or '.help')
Everything else goes out to the party line.
You have no messages.
*** HQ joined the party line. |
I've tried initiated the dcc and I've tried to make the bot initiate dcc, but it doesn't show anything but that when I start the bot. |

my apology, I just noticed that .18 doesn't show DCC info with -nt switches 
is the bot shelled, or is it located at your home? |

| It's shelled. I've been talking to a friend who has his bot hosted at the same location and his is fine. o_O |
