Hello, I ve compiled, installed, and configured Eggdrop but can't get my bot in my channel... It seems the bot can't even reach the network ([20:09:35] === Lamestbot: 0 channels, 0 users.)

Start-up seems to be OK but the bot isn't there

If you start the bot, like you showed, are you able to telnet the IP the bot is using and the listen port from your *.conf file? This is usually where, on the partyline, you use the command's to add user's and channel's.

If you can telnet the bot, you should be able to add dynamic channel's without adding a static Channel Block to your *.conf file. Although, it's recommended to add at least 1 static/home channel.
To add a dynamic channel on partyline, type:

Thanks @Get_A_Fix and @willyw for the great help and fast reply but the problem still there, it seems that the issue related to the server port and hostname

[Get_A_Fix]

Static channel's shouldn't be depreciated, I use the channel blocks on my bots without issue.

As for the above servers, you're supposed to use a colon : instead of a comma , and by stipulating the port, it overrides the default setting. You can also use the direct IP address instead of the hostname's, just to make sure it's connecting to where you want it.
