Try it with the -n switch, like this:
eggdrop -n eggdrop.conf


You can get descriptions of all the switches with:
eggdrop -h

and the -n switch is:
"-n Don't background; send all log entries to console."

The purpose of this exercise, is so that you can hopefully see what is going on. Run the bot with the -n switch, and it won't go into the background.
Then, attempt to connect using /ctcp botnick chat and then try using telnet.
Watch what happens when you give it your password each time.
Hopefully, you'll see something that is a clue.

I have set up a windrop bot but when I try and communicate with it it wont work.

I have made myself master with the hello message. Now when I try to DCC chat with it I get Waiting for acknowledgement... even though I have closed down my firewall + antivirus.

When I use CTCP chat I get a confirmation for "Nickname" and "Password". When I input nickname its asking for password. When I enter the passwork the CTCP chat closes down imidiately.

ANd finally telnet. I can connect to it fine and it ask for nick and pass. But when I input nick and then password it closes down instantly :< (same fenomena as with the CTCP).

Anyone have any idea what is wrong here ?
