timed-out userfile transfer

2005-08-16T19:29:58-04:00

It would appear that it is working now. I had my-ip set to the external IP and not the internal and it seems to have fixed it. Way to go me.

Thanks for your help

if the problem persists, set your console to +thd and show us the log from the moment of linking, also the output of .dccstat

Sorry, I wrote that wrong, they are all on the same local IP, differant ports.

on the same box but using different local IPs? that doesn't make sense at all

anyway, make sure you have my-ip set properly on all bots (and bot userrecords of course)

All of the bots are on the same box, all using local (behind the nat/firewall) ips (ie. 192.168.1*) Would the firewall issue still be an issue? Should they not be all local IP?

Failed connection; aborted userfile transfer. -- that means the leaf can't connect to hub's port, 5900:5950 or whatever (technically, in eggdrop's terminology, that's EOF, i.e. write() on that DCC socket has returned < 0, meaning either reset or never established connection), a typical firewall problem

I have the reserved portrange set:

set reserved-portrange 5900:5950

And I have ports 5900 to 6000 open and listening.

hmm it's about time for someone to come up with DCC/userfile transfer (and possibly NAT/firewall) FAQ

you likely have firewall problem, talk to your shell admin, tell them you need at least one port open and listening, and refer to reserved-portrange in eggdrop.conf

I am running a botnet with 5 eggdrops. I have been running for for over a year now but recently had to move the eggs to another machine. I have been trying to setup the eggs on a new machine and all works fine until they start sharing files and they time out.

These are echo's I get from the hub:

Code:

#ach# link [bot]Linking to [bot] at 192.168.1.107:5907 ...Received challenge from [bot]... sending response ...Linked to [bot].*** Linked to [bot]Creating resync buffer for [bot]Sending user file send request to [bot]

This is the echo from the same time from the bot:

Code:

Telnet connection: 192.168.1.107/52039Challenging [hub]...Linked to [hub].*** Linked to [hub]Downloading user file from [hub]Failed connection; aborted userfile transfer.

Shortly after this (300 seconds to be exact (the timeout lenght I set)) I get this on the hub:

Code:

Timeout on userfile transfer.*** Disconnected [bot] (timed-out userfile transfer)Telnet connection: 192.168.1.107/52054Challenging [bot]...

And this on the bot:

Code:

Disconnected from: [hub]. No reason (lost 4 bots and 1 user)*** Disconnected from: [hub]. No reason (lost 4 bots and 1 user)Received challenge from [hub]... sending response ...Linked to [hub].*** Linked to [hub]

I cannot get the bots to share files. I have edited the configs to the best of my knowledge, I have tried older versions of eggdrop and I have tried recompling the eggs many times. If anyone has any info on how I might fix this please let me know.

Thank you
