Many thanks to everybody.

Thanks fireworks!
The bot is not in the channel yet, so i'll try this that you said.

Javier yes but first, since you added your chan with flag k for key try adding the key word in the conf file and see if the bot still fails. Other than that I think your add line looks okey

If it doesn't work, make sure you enabled module ctcp on your bot, comment the add channel part out (disable it ), run the bot and when it's on IRC (either /whois botnick untill you get a reply or add it to your notify list so you'll be notified when it has arrived ) and when it's on IRC assuming you haven't introduced yourself to it yet, type in your mIRC status window (or whatever IRC client you use )

/msg botnick hello
or any other word you binded instead of hello if you were smart enough

bot then will greet you and tell you you're it's owner
next you have to set a password

/msg botnick pass thepasswordyouwant

you should now be set to move on. Type:

/ctcp botnick chat

the bot then should contact you and ask for your name (enter your IRC name exactly as it shows on IRC at the moment, cause this is how you introduced yourself to it)

next the bot asks for your password
enter the password you set for yourself a minute ago

you should be then in the partyline and from there you can add your channels and set all other settings you want
type .help in the partyline to see all avaiable help commands

SPOILER
replace botnick with your bot's handle

good luck

[quote="fireworks"]Just a silly solution but you could try commenting the channel add and channel set parts (disabling it at all ) and then add the channel and it's settings from the partyline..

Yeap!!!
But i have not way to enable telnet on my server.
Is there another way to control the bot?
Thanks in advance

no that's done via a script, if you set the chanmode +l x the bot is always going to keep the limit at x

wasn't the limit auto set by the bot according to number of ppl in channel at a given time?

one more thing when you add a chan with +k for key, you should also specify the key word
like this:

channel add #sweetchannel {
chanmode "+sntk nicekey"

In which case, you are ommiting important details needed to help solve your problem, as that line seems to work fine here.

Thanks Turambar but i just have:

channel add #mychannel {
chanmode "+ntlikm"
idle-kick 0
}
channel set #mychannel

...and does not work.
Commenting these lines the error disappears, but the boot not join on channel.

Regards.

look at the examples included in the eggdrop.conf

Code:

# Here is a shorter example:##   channel add #botcentral {#     chanmode "+mntisl 1"#     idle-kick 1#   }#   channel set #botcentral +bitch +enforcebans -greet +revenge

I think that should help you
