Melange Chat Server

already set to 6667. eggdrop can't connect after the tech added a rule to block port 6666 in iptables. It's really odd. After I added port 6666 - 6669 to the allowed ports in firewall, it was able to connect.

eggdrop.conf:

# Set the default port which should be used if none is specified with

# '.jump' or in 'set servers'.

set default-port 6667

melange chat server is a java chat on Cpanel my server was exploited due to this. It's weird why eggdrop can't connect if port 6666 is closed.

By default eggdrop dosen't have any 'Melange Chat Server' thing, it's either an altered version of eggdrop in wich case I would recommand you to delete it and get one from a trustworthy source OR is a either module or tcl script in wich case I would recommand you to unload and delete.

How do I disable Melange Chat Server? I telnet to my eggdrop IP on port 6666 and it shows this:

telnet 62.x.x.x 6666
Trying 62.x.x.x ...
Connected to hostname.com
Escape character is '^]'.

>> Melange Chat Server (Version 1.10), Apr-25-1999

Welcome ! (Type /HELP for a list of commands)

I wasn't able to get my eggdrops to connect at all if I close port 6666

it doesn't even ask for a password when I telnet to that IP. Please advise.
