Hmm.. although I dont fully understand what it does, it seems to work :) Thanks for your help!!!
It's quite simple. At the beggining you were trying to open socket every time when bot was started/restarted/rehashed. As you know you cannot bind same port to the same IP many times without closing previous connection.

You could bind a procedure to prerehash event and close your socket, then open it again after rehash or save socket name somewhere (in that case in ::socket variable) and not to open it again after rehash what was suggessted by metroid.

Code: 

if {![info exists ::socket]} {  set ::socket [socket -server Server 1234]}proc Server {channel clientaddr clientport} {  gets $channel msg_bt  putserv "PRIVMSG #lennonjohto :$msg_bt"putserv "ADDLINE :$msg_bt"  close $channel  set ::socket [socket -server Server 1234]}

couldn't open socket: address already in use
It had told you the problem; a socket left open.
yeah, I figured that out.. but I'm having a hard time figuring out how to close the socket :) Could someone help?

Code: 

PHP<?php$msg_bt = "some text to be sent to eggdrop";$fs = fsockopen("127.0.0.1", "1234", $errno, $errstr);if($fs) {      fwrite($fs, $msg_bt);      fclose($fs);}?>

Code: 

TCLproc Server {channel clientaddr clientport} {  gets $channel msg_bt  putserv "PRIVMSG #lennonjohto :$msg_bt"putserv "ADDLINE :$msg_bt"  close $channel  socket -server Server 1234}socket -server Server 1234
so.. this works just fine and I'm happy with it.. it's going to be part of a bigger system, not to be used like this :)

Anyway, this works but everytime I try to rehash the bot it crashes
Tcl error in file botti.conf
couldn't open socket: address already in use
while executing
"socket -server Server 1234"
and the bot quits.. I got the script from somewhere and I really dont know how to use sockets.. all I know it works, but crashes when I rehash.. How to change the script/what's wrong with it?
