You should never use 127.0.0.1. This is the looback address and is valid only on the computer your eggdrop is running on.

If behind a router, you should set the following.
nat-ip should be set to your external IP. EG 212.159.100.245 - this is obtainable by looking at the hostname that you get while on IRC (use /whois).
my-ip should be set the IP address you machine ahs while on the internal network. EG 192.168.1.15

These settings will need to be used.

So Telnet and IP issues shouldn't really be the case...

I have set the My-ip to 127.0.0.1

Even tried changing it to the local IP address since the public IP is dynamic

Get a failed to connect (unforseen error 116)


Any hints as to how I screwed up?

You should also locate and ste the value of nat-ip to the IP of you cable connection. (IE the external IP - the one you will usualy see in a whois on IRC).

Do you have a router between you and the ISP, or is the modem located in the computer?

Yes, you should be setting my-ip.

Eggdrop will not allways obtain the correct IP, on a system with miltiple interfaces, and it certainly will not, if you are running on a LAN.

To use DCC, eggdrop has to send the value of my-ip, or, if it isn't set, a value that it thinks is the IP, to the irc client.

An IRC client does not connect to the IP/hostname that it thinks is the correct one (IE, the address given in a /who, /whois or /userhost command). In stead it connects to the one provided by the remote connection (IE the bot).

This is how IRC servers can mask users addresses, but DCC can still work.

When I want to chat with him I'm just stuck on the 'Waiting for acknowledgement...' thingy.
Then when I telnet to my bot it sais 'Please enter your nick' or something. And when I do that and hit enter...telnet just closes :-?

Any ideas?
