Just a reminder that as most networks allow nicks to 32 characters the define can be altered to:

Code:

#define HANDLEN 32   /* valid values 9->NICKMAX  */

i dont need to do make config etc do i?

You have to recompile it! If you have botnet, then don't forget to change it on _all_ bots, otherwise they won't be able to link. You should also search src/mod/server.mod for nicklen and change it too ;)

Yup! You have to edit ~src/eggdrop.h.
Change

Code:

#define HANDLEN 9   /* valid values 9->NICKMAX  */

Code:

#define HANDLEN 20   /* valid values 9->NICKMAX  */

Then redo ./configure etc

OK, I set the nick length to 20 in the .conf file and then started the bot for user config mode but the bot still only recognizes 9 char. Am I missing another setting in the file? Thanks All!
