Toxicpc: Did you start your eggie with -nt parameters?
If so, then you are logged on to your bot as "HQ", usually being a user created on the fly with no permissions at all. If you have created your owner-account, try using .su to "logon" to that.

the bot is probably having a hostmask and/or flag issue. Type .whom in the partyline to see who the bot thinks you are, then use .match to see your personal information

I still have not figured out how to get dcc or telnet working but I found out i can type commands into the terminal window so I have been.

But .console and other commands such as .adduser do not work it just replys:

What? You need '.help'

Can anyone help?

I am unfortunately not that familiar with vmware; as for linux, if you're running a recent distro, you'd most likely be using iptables.

As root, run iptables --list filter --verbose --list to list any present firewalling rules within linux.

Hmm how would I fix them?

I have my software firewall disabled in windows (linux is in vmware).

Would seem it opens the port properly then..
All I can think of then is some iptable/ipchains/ipfw/etc rules blocking the connection.

If telnet to neither localhost nor localnet works, it would seem your eggdrop either failed to open the listening socket, or some firewall (iptable/ipchains/ipfw/etc) rules is blocking.

See any error messages during startup, or any messages saying bot is listening on port something or similar?

Setting either my-ip or my-hostname will restrict your eggdrop to only listen for incoming connections on this speciffic ip. You really should'nt set it unless you really need to.

I have a faint memory that the DG834G is based on iptables, which has an issue with NAT:ing when you connect to a forwarded port from within the lan-side of the router.

If you wish to specify which ip your eggdrop should advertise in dcc chat requests, aswell as file transfers and such, see the "nat-ip" setting.
