My solution to userfile sharing problem

2002-09-29T16:25:18-04:00

Hi!

The cause of my problem was, that i copied *.conf files from another bot, which was beyond NAT and not accessible from Internet. So - no wonder, that HubBot and LeafBot could not exchange their user files.

Exact solution:

a) When bot is firewalled/NATed, comment out settings for my-hostname and my-ip and set value to nat-ip instead.

b) Hosting bot on machine with public IP, use settings for my-hostname (and/?)or my-ip and uncomment nat-ip setting.

The bots are trying to sync this file but it does not work. master bot log:

And here is the log from "slave" bot:

[18:18] Disconnected from: ForgotteN. No reason (lost 1 bot and 1 user)
*** Disconnected from: ForgotteN. No reason (lost 1 bot and 1 user)

I rally RTFM but cannot find the error. Can somebody help me?
