Posted: Mon Mar 03, 2008 6:37 pm Post subject: Eggdrop Ping Times out |
|
|
I have been having a issue with my eggdrop bot (Ping Time) out on my irc server for the last few days now.. It only happens when a certain person joins the #chan my eggdrop sits in.
This guy is a good personal friend of one of my server admins and i know hes not trying to hack/flood the bot. I have Allprotection4.6b8 installed I run the eggy on a few vhosts I had the guy format his computer and join via java and my bot still Ping Times out as soon as he joins the #chan.
I'm running eggdrop v1.6.18 on FreeBSD
Please, if anyone can help me figure this out that would be really great. |

Can you provide more information about what the nickname and userhost of this person are (or just some special characters that may exploit any possible backdoors in a script). Are there any error messages or weird messages in your bot's console?
What you can do for now is try and unload all scripts and see if this behaviour continues. _________________ Follow me on GitHub

No error messages or weird messages in the bot's console or in the logs. As soon as he joins the chan i get no response to the bot and then he Ping Times out.
The guys nick on IRC is ReVeReNd_MaGgOt
His hostmask is Rev@.cfl.res.rr.com |

Nothing suspicious there and frankly I think the relation between this user and the timeout is just coincidental. Did you try unloading your Tcl scripts and see if the problem persists? _________________ Follow me on GitHub

That's not a valid host name, but an error like that should not crash eggdrop. Someone a bit more into C than myself might be able to determine if a host name starting with a dot would cause a crash. _________________ Have you ever read "The Manual"? |

I thought that too but then i had him join and part a few times and everytime he joined the bot would ping time out.

Hmm... that would rule out blocking dns-queries :/
If possible, it would be helpful if you could run your eggdrop through gdb, and do a bt (backtrace) when the hang occurs. _________________ NML_375, idling at #eggdrop@IrcNET |
