Hello everybody,
I run a windrop but this error I get surely applies to a possible eggdrop scenario.
My bot runs fine when I start it the first time. My problem ist that sometimes (like once in 3 days) my connection to the internet disconnects and reconnects again immediatly. Though I would expect the bot to notice this fact then reconnect and rejoin the irc it does not happen. Although its still loaded in the background, the bot never gets back online. The only thing I can do then ist to kill and restart it.
Does anyone know how to make the bot auto reconnect to the irc?
Cheers
Ben
P.S. I have set "set net-type 5" |

Well that is strange, the bot shouldn't disconnect like that
it wouldn't ping out if it disconnects and reconnects instantly
What is the quit msg?
Did you add a crontab for the botchk file? (if not, click here) |

I'm not sure crontab's would make much sense with windows..
However, since the process is still running, a scheduled job (crontab or not) would'nt make much sense anyway..
Without further details though, I would suspect that what happens is your DHCP-lease expires, and upon renewal, you gain a new IP-address. Most likely, your eggdrop is still trying to use the old IP, preventing the connection from being properly routed.
One thing worth checking, is that the "check-stoned" setting is set to 1. _________________ NML_375, idling at #eggdrop@IrcNET |
