problem with DNS module/identing to irc servers...

or maybe someone rewrote the tcp sections of his kernel to need passwords for dns lookups (that would be an interesting project - acl's taken to the extreme)

If you think about it, if he got a "bad password" error from the server, that means he connected to the server, so the dns lookup is already over.

Maybe the error from the server said "DNS error: could not resolve your hostname" or something and he thought it was eggdrop saying it.

phooka, as stdragon stated, what has that got to do with a password.

Besides, eggdrop does not need the dns module loaded. It can do lookup's perfectly fine without it, it just locks the bot for, about 1 to 2 seconds while doing it.

ok i think i know the problem find the line in your eggdrop.conf file (wtf u named it):
loadmodule dns
add a # in front of it so it looks like
# loadmodule dns
then restart the bot then try again
