Eggdrop loaded, but not connecting to server.

I think he meant to change it the other way around. To the IP that the bot is actually on.

Also, don't set both my-ip and my-hostname. Only set one or the other.

Also, he meant to try ./eggdrop -nm (You can stack arguments in linux)

I see, thanks. I just ran it in ./eggdrop -nm (after fixing the previous) and it appears that the bot stops when the server scans for proxies.

Edit: Ah, nevermind. It's working now :) Thank you both for helping.

Using ./eggdrop -n eggdrop.conf, I get the "user file not found" error.
Also - when I comment the local IP/host lines, it shows "Hostname self-lookup failed. Please set my-ip in the config file", which is why I changed it.
By the way, you meant to change the my-ip and my-hostname values to this, right?

set my-hostname "localhost"
set my-ip "127.0.0.1"

Thanks for the help. :)

First: 'set my-hostname "localhost"', 'set my-ip "24.195.167.42 "' remove the space after the 42 and change from localhost to the ip. Do a dns on 'localhost' and you will see that it will resolve to 127.0.0.1 not to that ip. Also, you can comment them and he will use the first internet ip of your box (24.195.167.42 if this is the first one). Also do you notice any errors/warnings or somehting? Try also starting it with: ./eggdrop -n eggdrop.conf and see what it says.

There's nothing logged other than my terminating the processes a few times to retry. I've just recently switched from using Windrop with a simple config file to Eggdrop using Linux, so I'd be considered a newbie in most respects. I'd really appreciate it very much if someone could take a bit and check over my conf file. ;P I looked it over a few times now and I'm really not sure what could be causing the problem.

Thanks. The eggdrop.conf file can be found here:

Thank you so much if you take the time to look it over.

EDIT: Removed signature images.

Edit by Dokujin: Apologies - I didn't realize you couldn't use images in signatures. Sorry about that.
