See if you have loaded the dns module or not.
Check if this line has been uncommented or not in the .conf file.

You shouldn't need to re-do the entire conf-file. Just try replacing the set servers section. Follow esix's advice, replace "uk.quakenet.org:6667" with "irc.quakenet.org:6667" it might be having problems resolving certain servers- so set it to the hub.

set servers {
irc.quakenet.org:6667
uk.quakenet.org:6667
}

And for S&G, try setting the server to something entirely different, just to see if it'll connect.

(try irc.efnet.org:6667 or something else)

If it wont connect to ANY server, you might have an issue with DNS on the machine- assuming of course you did in fact enable the module. make sure it's enabled and your ip settings are correct. If you have virtual hosting, try using a different IP- sometimes that gets the trick done.

Also, if you're running this behind a shell- are you positive there is no firewalling? Some shells block all IRC activity because it's against their AUP. Check with your host and see if eggdrops are allowed on their machine. if it's your machine, make sure the proper ports are forwarded to the machine you're connecting from, etc.

Look at the first line carefully, you haven't even set the eggdrop executable path even.

That line is not a comment. It points to where eggdrop resides and has to be set.

It's not vital for eggdrop to run.
You need it if you want threat the config file as a executable script, which can be handy when setting up crontab, thats about it.
No biggie.
