I followed the directions to setup the botnet but it doesn't look like the leaf bots are talking to the main. I am running the main and 1 bot from the same machine and same dir (using 2 different configs).

Any help is appreciated.

What error are you getting? also show us .whois of both bots

I do not see any errors from with the DCC session of the bot. I will look at the logs and see

.whois from xyzbot:

your bots obviously don't recognize each other, so you have made a mistake somewhere, most likely with the hostmask. Follow the directions laid out here exactly to link your bots

I know. I followed the directions and even redid the whole thing and its the same thing. Again, I am running both bots from the same computer and same dir. I am loading them using 2 different config files. For abcbot I do ./eggdrop abcbot.conf and for xyzbot I do ./eggdrop xyzbot.conf

I am behind a router (linksys) but I put the IP address in the DMZ zone.

Is there a command I can run when I dcc chat the bot to see why it cant connect?

Thanks for your help, appreciate it.

[iamdeath]

yes it is: .link botname
but I don't see any address in your both bots, xxx.xxx.xx.net I dont think it is a proper adddress and second bot is missing the whole address as well.

peace

Ok now i have them linked but the next problem is:
0[11:19] User file rejected by XYZbot: You are not marked for sharing with me.

I have the sharing module loaded and i did .chattr abcbot +ofbsh

so i am consufed on how to mark it for sharing.

TIA

There's a difference between "normal" flags (set by .chattr) and "botflags" (only applies to bots, set by .botattr). Flags regarding linking and sharing are botflags, not normal flags.

I also tried .botattr abcbot +gh If I do +ghp then I get asyc. error

[nml375]

Make sure the bots are not linked while changing botattr's

they were not, if they are linked you can't make the change.
