Can't find any $reserved-portrange setting in my conf files, using windrop 1.6.8 (used eggdrop_advanced.conf)...

the hub has to be on a connection where you can forward ports to it. Hub always creates its listen sockets for file transfers to those defined by $reserved-portrange, so as long as you set this and forward ports appropriatly it will work.

So basically, is there a way to make the leaf bots use passive mode or any NAT-related settings ?

And if not, would moving the hub to a cable link be the only solution ?

You can't change the way eggdrop does it linking, and sharing connections, and yes, the DSL is liely the problem.

A lot of DSL providers use NAT, to house multiple computers behind a single IP. This means that if some1 tries to connect to your IP, the NAT router doesn;t know which one of the many computers behind it, to forward the connection onto.

Hub side:

[19:52] (Wolf): [19:52] Timeout/EOF ident connection

Leaf side:

[19:56] (Fox): [19:58] Received challenge from Wolf... sending response ...
[19:56] (Fox): [19:58] Linked to Wolf.
[19:56] (Fox): *** Linked to Wolf

[19:56] (Fox): [19:58] Failed connection; aborted userfile transfer.
[19:57] (Fox): *** Disconnected from: Wolf. No reason (lost 3 bots and 1 user)

Could it have something to do with the hub being on a dsl connection (need passive mode to connect to a dsl) ? If yes, how the **** can I set the leaf bot to use it ?

Thx for helpin out, bro

Are you behind any type of firewall, or are any of the other bots?

Oki buds, here's the bug... Bots within my local network can link and share userfile, but bots can't share userfile from remote locations (tho they still link...)...

They're all 1.6.8 windrops with Netbots 4.05 hosted on WinXP pcs, and I already tried setting the my-ip and timeout settings, with no result...

Can some1 help me out ?
