Hmm, Its so good to see some positive attitude towards windrop But then the bottomline always remains 'Windows isnt good'

the newer eggdrops are not as easy to run on windows.

Have you edited resolv.conf file? Edit in there and put the "nameserver". For me this helped coz my eggy din't connect until I made that change.

Q: Windrop still reports "* Can't determine your hostname!" or "* Hostname self-lookup failed."
A: It may help to put an entry in your Windowshosts file (On Windows 9x/ME) or WinntSystem32Driversetchost file (On Windows 2000) that matches what you set my-hostname to. See the Windowshosts.sam file (On Windows 9x/ME) or WinntSystem32Driversetchost.sam file (On Windows 2000) for a sample hosts file

(http://windrop.sourceforge.net/windropfaq.html)

And make sure you edit the file dns.reg

Yes the problem is its a 'windows' eggy!
hehehe

As ppslim said, have a look in your config file it should talk about manually setting the IP/hostname if the bot cant detect it itself.

Try setting your IP and hostname in the config file, under the section, "set my-hostname"
