I installed my bot on Linux (eggdrop v1.6.21) and the scripts directory have 2 files:
botchk
autobotchk
I noticed that being in the scripts directory does not have .tcl extension.
QUESTIONS:
a) These files are well-located and well that have no extension?
b) What I must make to be reviewed every five minutes if the bot is online?
c) Which of the two scripts I set up and as I do?.
d) Which of the two is better or more effective?

botchk code
Code:
#! /bin/sh
#
# botchk
#
# $Id: botchk,v 1.6 2002/02/27 18:21:46 guppy Exp $
#
# This is a script suitable for use in a crontab.  It checks to make sure
# your bot is running.  YOU NEED A SEPARATE CRON JOB FOR EACH BOT.  If your
# bot isn't found, it'll try to start it back up.
#
# You'll need to edit this script for your bot.
#
# To check for your bot every 10 minutes, put the following line in your
# crontab:
#    0,10,20,30,40,50 * * * *   /home/mydir/mybot/botchk
# And if you don't want to get email from crontab when it checks you bot,
# put the following in your crontab:
#    0,10,20,30,40,50 * * * *   /home/mydir/mybot/botchk >/dev/null 2>&1
#

# change this to the directory you run your bot from (capitalization COUNTS):
botdir="/home/mydir/mybot"

# change this to the name of your bot's config file (capitalization COUNTS):
botscript="mybot"

# change this to the botnet-nick of your bot (capitalization COUNTS):
botname="LamestBot"

# change this to the name of your bot's userfile (capitalization COUNTS):
userfile="LamestBot.user"

# change this to the name of your bot's pidfile (capitalization COUNTS):
pidfile="pid.LamestBot"

########## you probably don't need to change anything below here ##########

cd $botdir

# is there a pid file?
if test -r $pidfile
then
  # there is a pid file -- is it current?
  botpid=`cat $pidfile`
  if `kill -CHLD $botpid >/dev/null 2>&1`
  then
    # it's still going -- back out quietly
    exit 0
  fi
  echo ""
  echo "Stale $pidfile file, erasing..."
  rm -f $pidfile
fi

if test -r CANTSTART.$botname
then
  if test -r $userfile || test -r $userfile~new || test -r $userfile~bak
  then
    echo ""
    echo "Userfile found, removing check file 'CANTSTART.$botname'..."
    rm -f CANTSTART.$botname
  fi

# test if we have run botchk previously and didn't find a userfile
if test ! -f CANTSTART.$botname
then

  echo "Couldn't find bot '$botname' running, reloading..."
  echo ""
  # check for userfile and reload bot if found
  if test -r $userfile
  then
    # It's there, load the bot
    ./$botscript
    exit 0
  else
    if test -r $userfile~new
    then
      # Bot f*@!ed up while saving the userfile last time.  Move it over.
      echo "Userfile missing.  Using last saved userfile..."
      mv -f $userfile~new $userfile
      ./$botscript
      exit 0
    else
      if test -r $userfile~bak
      then
        # Userfile is missing, use backup userfile.
        echo "Userfile missing.  Using backup userfile..."
        cp -f $userfile~bak $userfile
        ./$botscript
        exit 0
      else
        # Well, nothing to work with...
        echo "No userfile.  Could not reload the bot..."

        exit 1

exit 0



autobotchk code
Code:

# This trick is borrowed from Tothwolf's Wolfpack \
# Check for working 'grep -E' before using 'egrep' \
if echo a | (grep -E '(a|b)') >/dev/null 2>&1; \
then \
  egrep="grep -E"; \
else \

# AutoBotchk - An eggdrop utility to autogenerate botchk/crontab entries
#
# Copyright (C) 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002 Jeff Fisher (guppy@eggheads.org)
#
# How to use
# ----------
#
#   Most people begin to use AutoBotchk by moving it from the script
# directory to their Eggdrop directory -- this will save you from having to
# use the -dir option.
#
#   If you run AutoBotchk without any arguments, it will present you with
# a list of valid ones. Most people run AutoBotchk by doing:
#
#     ./autobotchk <config file>
#
#   This will setup crontab to check every 10 minutes to see whether or not
# your bot needs to be restarted and it will e-mail if a restart was
# performed. A lot of people turn off crontab e-mail support; however, I do
# not recommend this since you will be unable to see any errors that might
# happen.
#
# Updates
# -------
#   27Sep2001: added new pidfile setting
#   14Nov2001: removed old autobotchk update entries and updated the help
#              section a little bit. also made autobotchk move down one
#              directory if being run from the scripts directory.
#   15Apr2003: cleaned up a few things, fixed a few bugs, and made a little
#              love! j/k

Perfect SpiKe^^ Very Happy
For the bot to run when you start the operating system, I found this info, not if it is correct, you tell me if it's okay right?
We must change the rc.local file located in the following path /etc/rc.local
Code:
# cat /etc/rc.local

#!/bin/sh
#
# This script will be executed *after* all the other init scripts.
# You can put your own initialization stuff in here if you don't
# want to do the full Sys V style init stuff.
/eggdrop/eggdrop

Use:
crontab -l
to view current crontab entries.
(that is a lower case letter L )

Google for help, explanation, more info, etc. on
crontab
