Thank you.
Then you are suffering from the issue with threaded tcl.

The quickfix is as follows:

Download/unpack eggdrop source.
Run ./configure

Edit config.h, locate the HAVE_TCL_THREADS macro:

Code:

/* Define for Tcl that has threads. *//* #undef HAVE_TCL_THREADS */

Alter that into this:

Code:

/* Define for Tcl that has threads. */#define HAVE_TCL_THREADS 1

Run make config
Run make
Run make install

If you'd like to know more about this issue, you'll find several threads regarding this in the forum. A search for "threaded tcl" should pick most of them.

Please refrain from bumping! (I will remove the bump-post this time).

Regarding your last post, do you get any error messages or logs?
Were you running it in foreground (using -n or -nt)?

The post you made earlier suggests it fully capable of connecting to freenode.net when running in foreground. This suggests you are either suffering from network issues (routing tables, firewall rules, etc), or a known issue with Tcl8.5 and threads. If you do as I suggested, changing the nickname and starting it in foreground - do you see it coming online and responding?

When ./eggdrop -n -m eggdrop.conf its works and i can connect to telnet, but when start with ./eggdrop -m eggdrop.conf can't connect to server and i can't telneting ..

Your eggdrop uses a registered nickname, and nickserv is complaining and either changing it's nick, or simply killing it.
Start with trying a different nickname.

I try on my network, but does not work. Eggdrop can't connect to server and can't telneting

First step then, would be to start your eggdrop using -nt flags:
Code:
 ./eggdrop -m -nt eggdrop.conf
This will prevent your eggdrop from dropping into background, and allows you to monitor log messages and similar in realtime.
Those messages should help us figure out why it's not connecting properly.

Eggdrop can't connect to irc servers [SOLVED]

2009-03-13T17:34:38-04:00

First off, don't do this:
Code:
set my-hostname "localhost"set my-ip "192.168.0.5"
Localhost will in most cases point to 127.0.0.1, and when setting both my-ip and my-hostname (which both affect the very same setting, upon which ip/interface any socket will be created) it may lead to some confusion as to which takes precedence (with current eggdrops, my-ip will take precedence, overriding any my-hostname settings).

Secondly, do you really need to set either my-ip or my-hostname?
Generally, this should only be set if your eggdrop is unable to figure out which IP address to use (most common with windrops), or if you are using a "multihomed" system and wich to control which IP address should be presented to the irc network (this also affects listen-ports and may cause unexpected behaviours with bot linking).

I see you've set nat-ip, which is good since you're behind a NAT-router. Also, you've done some extensive port forwarding. I would suggest you have a look at the reserved-portrange setting, which allows you to restrict the ports used by your eggdrop for dcc communications and botnet userfile transfers. This would allow you to limit the port range you forward to your system (if needed).

Also, you've got some awkward ordering of settings and module loadings in your config. Be aware that some modules will actually replace any existing settings with default ones upon loading. In fact, you actually try to add channels first, and then load the channels module. I'm puzzled you actually got this bot running in the first place.
Rather than using some config file generator, I'd suggest you start fresh using the example config that should've come with your eggdrop. Yes, it's huge and overwhelming, but it keeps settings in a proper order and will work without too much hazzle.
Worth noting: In your case, you actually set the serverlist before loading the servers module, which in fact will wipe the servers list. This is most likely why your eggdrop won't show up on irc...

I try with original conf file, without my-hostname, my-ip, but does not work PLEASE HELP ME ..
