Ping Script

Even, ifyoud efine hostname script isnt working...I puted my btos ip there and i typed .ping on chan and bot returned PING and nofthing more..

how should it...
a) the ping command works different on unix and windows, if you use this exec on unix you bot will freeze (because ping wont quick after 4 trys like windows ping does).
b) the catch output is multiple lines long, thats why you have to split the text @ \n

as said befor, dont you exec but try it with "open"...

you didnt define $hostname anywhere in the script, so how could it be read by the exec ?

this script is one of the biggest securety holes ever...

an exec with a parameter every user (bind -) can use....that system is allready doomed

better try working with open than with exit because it doesnt block your bot

Hi Guys!

I´ve just started learning TCL about a week ago. Now I´m at my second script and I´m stuck. I wanted to create a script that´s pinging a server and shows the result in an irc channel. The script should run on an eggdrop.

So far my code:

Code:

bind pub - .ping pingproc ping { nick uhost hand chan arg } {    catch {exec ping $hostname} result    putserv "PRIVMSG $chan : PING $result"}

After typing .ping in my channel my bot answers with:
PING couldn't duplicate input handle: bad file number

I don´t know what this means and how I could fix it. Could anyone help me please?
