    Hello!

    First of all - Ive recently your Admin Interface for Webmin ! Nice stuff! ;)

    Ive tried your NewsBot as well, but it seems, that the NewsBot does not connect to the IRC (UnrealIRCd-based (3.2beta19-running well with Auspices Services as well as the SolarStats)).

    It tells me:

    :irc.game4fun.org NOTICE AUTH :*** Looking up your hostname...
    :irc.game4fun.org NOTICE AUTH :*** Found your hostname (cached)
    ERROR :Closing Link: [217.160.217.30] (Ping timeout)

    There is no password required for the IRC and the log looks like this:

    Start Logging
    Sat Feb 14 10:57:11 2004 CONNECTED irc.game4fun.org
    Sat Feb 14 10:57:11 2004 DISCONNECTED FROM irc.game4fun.org
    Start Logging
    Sat Feb 14 11:04:47 2004 CONNECTED irc.game4fun.org
    Sat Feb 14 11:04:47 2004 DISCONNECTED FROM irc.game4fun.org

    Since I was logged onto the IRC as a NetAdmin, I am able to see who is logging on - but no connection was found from the NewsBot.

    What is going wrong ? Thanks in advance! ;)

      Hi Michael.

      Sorry, that i haven't monitor the forum, i will do it now :)

      I have reviewed the sourcecode and i think that the bot cannot
      open a socket to read from. That means the newsbot can connect to the server but cant open a connection, so the code
      ends and the bot quits. I'm not sure whats wrong.
      Maybe there is a ban or somethin on the bot.

      Have you tried to connect the bot to a different network?

      The problem is obviosly the socket but what it occures i don't
      know. Try to find out if your server is problem or the bot.
