Read through the eggdrop.complete.conf file, and look at the section about my-ip

Most eggdrop's need this setting.

If the default route on a machine i setup as the local network, then this is the problemwith the system.

If you set the value of my-ip, then this issue will resolve itself.

A lot of systems require this.

hmmm ok well would that be in my .conf? cuz like, i don't see anything there resembling "my-ip".

i don't understand how it is that the bot worked just fine several times before, and then after the host downtime, it didnt work anymore.
I have spoken with the administrator and he says nothing was changed, the box just crashed and was restarted when he returned home; yet, alas, me eggy still will not start now.
if all else fails i can always re-install it, but i want to know why this is and how to fix it so that in the future, i will have the diagnostic knowledge of the bot.
anyways, /me will go back to trying to locate the problem...

you need to set the value of my-ip correctly (and put it before anything runs that requires an ip, eg listen ports)

Ok here's the deal. My bot was working just fine. Then the host box went down for a couple of days while the admin did God knows what to it. Now when I try to start the bot, I get this:

[10:59] * Hostname self-lookup failed.
[10:59] Attempt to kill un-allocated socket 0 !!

Obviously something has been changed on the host machine. My question is, where do i need to make this adjustment in the bot inorder for it to start, and what exactly does this mean?

Any help would be greatly appreciated, ty
