Lost connection while identing...

[GE]

I have my bot running (it is a windrop) and keep getting this error

[10:35] Telnet connection: langhost.com/38700
[10:35] Lost connection while identing [langhost.com/38700]

set protect-telnet 1 and I used .+host

what is the best way to troubleshoot this or am I missing something?

my script on the board passes the info to the bot so I don't understand what is going wrong...

here is a piece of the PHP script to communicate with the bot:

$egg=@fsockopen($data[0],$data[1]);
socket_set_blocking($egg,FALSE);
fputs($egg, "{$data[2]}\n");
fputs($egg, "{$data[3]}\n");
fputs($egg, ".say {$data[4]} $mystring\n");
fputs($egg, ".quit\n");
fread($egg,4096);
fclose($egg);

data0=IP data1=port data2=user data3=pass data4=channel

I used my username on the channel to try and connect..

Thanks in advance

The ident timeout is what is says.

When connecting to eggdrop, it will lookup the ident of the user trying to connect. In this case, the web-server must no have idetnd running/installed.

Try reducing the idetn timout value in the config file, as the PHP script may timout before eggdrop gets to timeout.

thanks bro, that is what I needed.. looks like the PHP timed out before the bot did...
