<p>This module provides the core server support. You have to load this
if you want your bot to come on IRC.<br>
</p>
<p>Put this line into your Eggdrop configuration file to load the
server module:</p>
<p><strong>loadmodule server</strong></p>
<p>There are also some variables you can set in your config
file:</p>
</blockquote>
<blockquote>
<dl>
<dt><strong>set net-type 0</strong></dt>
<dd>
<p>What is your network?</p>
<p>0 = Efnet<br>
1 = IRCnet<br>
2 = Undernet<br>
3 = Dalnet<br>
4 = +e/+I/max-bans 20 Hybrid<br>
5 = Others</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>set nick "LamestBot"</strong></dt>
<dd>
<p>Set the nick the bot uses on IRC, and on the botnet unless
you specify a separate botnet-nick, here.</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>set altnick "LamestBot"</strong></dt>
<dd>
<p>Set the alternative nick which the bot uses on IRC if the nick
specified by 'set nick' is unavailable. All '?'
characters will be replaced by random numbers.</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>set keep-nick 1</strong></dt>
<dd>
<p>This setting makes the bot try to get his original nickname back
if its primary nickname is already in use.</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>set realname "/msg LamestBot hello"</strong></dt>
<dd>
<p>Set here what to display in the real-name field for the bot.</p>
</dd>
<dt>
<p>
<strong>bind evnt - init-server evnt:init_server</strong><br>
<strong>proc evnt:init_server {type} {</strong><br>
<strong> global botnick</strong><br>
<strong> putquick "MODE $botnick +i-ws"</strong><br>
<strong>}</strong>
</p>
</dt>
<dd>
<p>This is a Tcl script to be run immediately after connecting to a
server.</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>set init-server { putserv "MODE $botnick +i-ws"
}</strong></dt>
<dd>
<p>This is a Tcl script to be run immediately after connecting to a
server. It is limited to 120 characters, and is depriciated due to
the EVNT bind (see <a href="tcl-commands.html">Tcl Commands</a>).</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>set connect-server { putlog "Connecting to
server." }</strong></dt>
<dd>
<p>This is a Tcl script to be run immediately before connecting to a
server. It is limited to 120 characters, and is depriciated due to
the EVNT bind (see <a href="tcl-commands.html">Tcl Commands</a>).</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>set disconnect-server { putlog "Disconnected from
server." }</strong></dt>
<dd>
<p>This is a Tcl script to be run immediately after disconnecting
from a server. It is limited to 120 characters, and is depriciated
due to the EVNT bind (see <a href="tcl-commands.html">Tcl
Commands</a>).</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>set servers {</strong></dt>
<pre>
you.need.to.change.this:6667
another.example.com:7000:password
</pre>
<p><strong>}</strong></p>
<dd>
<p>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.</p>
<p>For example:</p>
<p>set servers {<br>
irc.netw.ork<br>
irc.krow.ten:6668<br>
}</p>
<p>The format is: server[:port[:password]]</p>
<p>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..</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>set default-port 6667</strong></dt>
<dd>
<p>Set the default port which should be used if none is specified
with '.jump' or in 'set servers'.</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>set server-cycle-wait 60</strong></dt>
<dd>
<p>This setting defines how long Eggdrop should wait before moving
from one server to another on disconnect. If you set 0 here,
Eggdrop will not wait at all and will connect instantly. Setting
this too low could result in your bot being K:Lined.</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>set never-give-up 1</strong></dt>
<dd>
<p>This settings makes the bot cycle forever through the server
list until it successfully connects to one.</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>set server-timeout 60</strong></dt>
<dd>
<p>Set here how long Eggdrop should wait for a response when
connecting to a server before giving up and moving on to next
server.</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>set servlimit 0</strong></dt>
<dd>
<p>If the number of servers on the net gets below this number,
the bot will jump to a new server (it will assume it's on the
losing end of a netsplit). Set this to 0 to turn off. If your
bot is running on any major IRC network, this should probably
be turned off.</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>set check-stoned 1</strong></dt>
<dd>
<p>Set this to 1 if Eggdrop should check for stoned servers? (where
the server connection has died, but Eggdrop hasn't been notified
yet).</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>set serverror-quit 1</strong></dt>
<dd>
<p>If you want your bot to exit the server if it receives an
ERROR message, set this to 1.</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>set max-queue-msg 300</strong></dt>
<dd>
<p>Set here the maximum number of lines to queue to the server.
If you're going to dump large chunks of text to people over IRC,
you will probably want to raise this. 300 is fine for most people
though.</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>set raw-log 0</strong></dt>
<dd>
<p>This setting allows you the logging of raw incoming server
traffic via console/log flag 'r', raw outgoing server
traffic via console/log mode 'v', raw botnet traffic via
console/log mode 't', and raw share traffic via console/log
mode 'h'. These flags can create a large security hole,
allowing people to see user passwords. This is now restricted to +n
users only. Please choose your owners with care.</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>set strict-host 0</strong></dt>
<dd>
<p>Set this to 0 if you want the bot to strip '~' characters
from user@hosts before matching them.</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>set quiet-reject 1</strong></dt>
<dd>
<p>This setting makes the bot squelch the error message when
rejecting a DCC CHAT, SEND or message command. Normally,
Eggdrop notifies the user that the command has been rejected
because they don't have access. Note that sometimes IRC
server operators detect bots that way.</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>set flood-msg 5:60</strong></dt>
<dd>
<p>Set here how many msgs in how many seconds from one host
constitutes a flood. If you set this to 0:0, msg flood protection
will be disabled.</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>set flood-ctcp 3:60</strong></dt>
<dd>
<p>Set here how many ctcps in how many seconds from one host are
recognized as a flood. Not specifying or using number = 0
will not check against ctcp floods.</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>set answer-ctcp 3</strong></dt>
<dd>
<p>Set how many ctcps should be answered at once here.</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>set lowercase-ctcp 0</strong></dt>
<dd>
<p>If you want your bot to answer lower case ctcp requests (non
rfc-compliant), set this setting to 1. mIRC will do this, most
other clients will not.</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>set trigger-on-ignore 0</strong></dt>
<dd>
<p>If you want Eggdrop to trigger binds for ignored users, set
this to 1.</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>set exclusive-binds 0</strong></dt>
<dd>
<p>This setting configures PUBM and MSGM binds to be exclusive
of PUB and MSG binds. This means if a MSGM bind with the mask
"*help*" exists and is triggered, any MSG bindings
with "help" in their mask will not be triggered.
Don't enable this unless you know what you are doing!</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>set double-mode 0</strong></dt>
<dd>
<p>Allow identical messages in the mode queue?</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>set double-server 0</strong></dt>
<dd>
<p>Allow identical messages in the server queue?</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>set double-help 0</strong></dt>
<dd>
<p>Allow identical messages in the help queue?</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>set use-penalties 1</strong></dt>
<dt>(default on net-type 1)</dt>
<dd>
<p>This enables Eggdrop's penalty calculation. Every command
Eggdrop sends to the IRC server raises it's penalty points.
If Eggdrop reaches a server limit, it gets disconnected with
"excess flood" message. Eggdrop is able to count internal
those penalty points, too and take measures against excess flooding.
Note: it's highly advised to turn this on!</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>set optimize-kicks 1</strong></dt>
<dd>
<p>This optimizes the kick queue. It also traces nick changes
and parts in the channel and changes the kick queue accordingly.
There are three different options for this setting:</p>
<p>0 = Turn it off.<br>
1 = Optimize the kick queue by summarizing kicks.<br>
2 = Trace nick changes and parts on the channel and change
the queue accordingly. For example, bot will not try to kick
users who have already parted the channel.</p>
</dd>
</dl>

<blockquote>
<p>There are more settings for 'net-type' 5.</p>
<p><strong>Use this settings only if you set 'net-type' to
5!</strong></p>
</blockquote>
<blockquote>
<dl>
<dt><strong>set check-mode-r 1</strong></dt>
<dd>
<p>This settings defines how umode +r is understood by Eggdrop.
Some networks use +r to indicate a restricted connection. If this
is your case, and you want your bot to leave restricted servers
and jump to the next server on its list, then set it to 1. Please
note, this setting is automatically set to 0 for net-type 0/2/3/4,
and set to 1 for net-type 1.</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>set nick-len 9</strong></dt>
<dd>
<p>This setting allows you to specify the maximum nick-length
supported by your network. The default setting is 9. The
maximum supported length by Eggdrop is 32.</p>
</dd>
