If I were you I'd report that to eggdrop's dev team; it doesn't look like eggdrop issue, but I'm not that familiar with eggdrop's networking code so I might be wrong

I have now installed Ubuntu with the 2.6.10 kernel just to check if it would make a difference, but still got the same problem (also tried running eggdrop 1.6.16 instead of 1.6.17). For some time ago I used to run Debian with the 2.2.22 kernel (and it worked fine, both compiling and running the bot). My temporary conclusion is therefore that it has to be some kind of bug in running eggdrop on this specific kernel OR my box has seen its last sunrise. The strange thing about the last alternative is that eggdrop used to work before, but with another distro.

Well, I haven't tried too many other network apps yet. I installed a clean FC4 installation yesterday, so have only tested eggdrop.
But as a formality; FTP and web server are working as they should.

hmm, strange... eggdrop shouldn't have problems of that kind on Linux... have you had similar problems with other network apps?

Thanks for answering
I run GNU/Linux 2.6.11 with Fedora Core 4. I had to upgrade both GCC / CPP and TCL before the installation of eggdrop so those should be of the newest version.

this is socket error with error code EINVAL, documented by SVr4, and eggdrop's error message for it is somewhat misleading (Wcc might want to take a look at that); it should be something like Invalid address family

quite possibly an eggdrop bug, you should report it to the development team (check the docs on how to do that)

what's your operating system/version?

[23:16] Trying server irc.server.com:6667
[23:16] Failed connect to irc.server.com (Invalid namespace)
[23:16] (@) EOF socket 9, not a dcc socket, not anything.

What is this? Can't find anything on google except some non-readable tcl source code.

Someone?
