go look in the tcl archive, i'm sure it has some kind of greet script.

thankyou for your help.
though is there a way that i can set the greet to greet people in chan depending on their current handle/hostmask?

how do i make it recognise my host on IRC ?
/msg IDENT was suggested to me though i have currently had no luck.

i found 'that' in the thread that Alchera posted.

I thought you would have read down further in that thread I posted; maybe I should have been more specific - It was Metroid's script solution I'd hoped you'd have found.

Go try this then.

Code:

# The configuration set flags(owner) "A Bot Owner Has Entered The Channel!" set flags(master) "A Bot Master Has Entered The Channel!" set flags(op) "A Bot Op Has Entered The Channel!" set flags(halfop) "A Bot Halfop Has Entered The Channel!" set flags(cowner) "A Channel Owner Has Entered The Channel!" set flags(cmaster) "A Channel Master Has Entered The Channel!" set flags(cop) "A Channel Op Has Entered The Channel!" set flags(chalfop) "A Channel Halfop Has Entered The Channel!" bind JOIN - * flags:join proc flags:join { nickname hostname handle channel } { global flags if {[matchattr $handle n]} { putquick "PRIVMSG $channel :\[ $nickname \] $flags(owner)" } elseif {[matchattr $handle m]} { putquick "PRIVMSG $channel :\[ $nickname \] $flags(master)" } elseif {[matchattr $handle o]} { putquick "PRIVMSG $channel :\[ $nickname \] $flags(op)" } elseif {[matchattr $handle l]} { putquick "PRIVMSG $channel :\[ $nickname \] $flags(halfop)" } elseif {[matchattr $handle |n $channel]} { putquick "PRIVMSG $channel :\[ $nickname \] $flags(cowner)" } elseif {[matchattr $handle |m $channel]} { putquick "PRIVMSG $channel :\[ $nickname \] $flags(cmaster)" } elseif {[matchattr $handle |o $channel]} { putquick "PRIVMSG $channel :\[ $nickname \] $flags(cop)" } elseif {[matchattr $handle |l $channel]} { putquick "PRIVMSG $channel :\[ $nickname \] $flags(chalfop)" } }

Those command (.onjoin) is available only if you add a special tcl script. You can find that script here

i found 'that' in the thread that Alchera posted.
and .help was, of course, one of the first things i tried,
I wouldn't start posting on a forum without trying .help first.

I've tried the commands listed,
and the results were as follows.

.onjoin flags
What? You need '.help'
.onjoin messages
What? You need '.help'
.onjoin add * +n testing
What? You need '.help'

:cry:

Where you found that? Use .help on party-line to see available commands.

Read this post; there's a scripting solution to setting a greet via DCC.

I feel like a no0b asking such a ridiculous question, however i am new to use of eggdrops so i guess i may as well swallow my pride.

I've been trying to setup a changreet, or any greet in general.
However no matter what documentation I read, or various attempts I make, I
continue to be confronted with the following error.

'error trying to set greet for #chan, Invalid option'

does anyone have any suggestions as to how I can set a greeting of any kind?

Kind Regards,
-No0b
