As such, with all modules, they are loaded using a command in the config file.

Thus "eggdrop assumption" + "config file command" = "Wanting to load DNS module"

As the DNS module was not compiled on your system, you simply remove the required line in the config file.

This is documented.

Download the Windrop binary or use the compile guide at http://windrop.sourceforge.net/
The dns module is optional and not required for using Eggdrop.

Try editing the config before you complain that it's not working

I'm trying to configure/compile the eggdrop but there is a serious problem :

When I start the script "configure" the DNS part tells me :


running in eggdrop mode.

checking whether the C compiler (gcc ) works... yes

configure: warning:

Your system provides no functional resolver library. The DNS
module will therefore be disabled.


Pretty all checking are "no" and the warning is not really a warning because without this module, I can't start the eggdrop :(


If i go futher on, the "make config" and the "make" ended correctly but when i start the eggdrop application, it tells me :

Eggdrop v1.6.12 (C) 1997 Robey Pointer (C) 2002 Eggheads

Ok, i did not modify the "conf" file but the problem is before => [20:58] Can't load modules dns: dlopen: Win32 error 126

I don't know how to solve this problem...

I have ever sent a mail to Slennox but may be i was wrong : the problem is not present due to the dlopen library but due to the unreachable socket library. May be ???

When i start the "configure" script it has ever told me :

checking for socket in -lsocket... no
checking for connect in -lnsl... no
checking for gethostbyname in -ldns... no
checking for dlopen in -ldl... no


Mmmhhh... i don't think its a good thing ;)

Can someone help me ?
