Phoenix Network Forums

everytime i try to connect to a server it disconects me and gives no reason why? could any1 help me?

Did you bind it to one of the IPs?

208.98.27.3 - 208.98.27.106

Agh no, how do i go about doing that is it through the firewall?

Look into the eggdrop config file.
There should be this line:

# If you're using virtual hosting (your machine has more than 1 IP), you
# may want to specify the particular IP to bind to. You can specify either
# by hostname or by IP. You may also want to set the hostname here if
# Eggdrop has trouble detecting it when it starts up.
#set my-hostname ""
#set my-ip ""

Uncomment the last two lines and set it to one of these:
http://tim.flyserver.net/pnr.php (anything but the first one and the last 20)

Actualy that:
#set my-hostname ""
#set my-ip ""
is needed when you wanna to set some right IP or vHost. Not to connect to eggy. But yeah that can be a problem when you're trying to connect on server and it drops. Run eggdrop in debug mode, ./eggdrop -n (_config_file_) so you will see the reason of that why you can't connect to irc server. So if you making commented these rows the bot will automaticaly use default IP of phoenix wich one is forbbiden to use. Use IP range as phoenix have and put there one of them. If nothing happen just follow the reason when you run eggy in debug mode. Or try to telnet in him to see problem maybe IP is banned of your server. Also you can see what's wrong in log document if you setted to log your eggy.

Read log file?

Try to use IP for DNS.

Chack ports...

also you may want to make sure this is setup to the server you want your bot to connect to:

# This is the bot's server list. The bot will start at the first server listed,
# and cycle through them whenever it gets disconnected. You need to change these
# servers to YOUR network's servers.
#
# The format is:
# server[:port[:password]]
#
# Both the port and password fields are optional; however, if you want to set a
# password you must also set a port. If a port isn't specified it will default to
# your default-port setting.
set servers {
irc.blah.net:port:blah
}



That usually starts at line 801 in most eggdrop.conf files....

I dont know if thats the problem but it has to be set to the server you want the bot on, hope it helps...(Star).
