psyBNC and eggdrop Reinstallation using Old Config

Dear Valued Customer,
We are sorry for last week problem. Due to hardware failure, we replace our hardware with new one. Unfortunely, we get new 64 bit platform which was using 32 bit. So, if you have already install eggdrop, psybnc, and other application you need reinstall your application. In this guide, we will show you how to recompile your psyBNC and your eggdrop without losing any data/scripts.
Bold char means a command to execute in your prompt shell.

I. Recompilation psyBNC
1. change directory to your psybnc; type: cd psybnc
2. remove old psybnc binary; type: rm -f psybnc
3. remove old static library; type: make clean
4. recompile your new psybnc binary on 64 bit platform; type: make
5. run your psybnc; type: ./psybnc

Now you can use your psyBNC using same port, same ident, and same password as previously.

II. Recompilation eggdrop
In this guidance, I assume your eggdrop directory is eggdrop under your username, if your eggdrop directory is custom name, eg. myeggdrop please make sure to associate that with this guide.
1. change directory to your eggdrop directory; type: cd eggdrop
2. check your previous eggdrop version; type: ls -l eggdrop
for eggdrop version 1.6.19, it will look like below:
lrwxr-xr-x 1 KalpinBot KalpinBot 14 May 15 2009 eggdrop -> eggdrop-1.6.19
for eggdrop version 1.6.18, it will look like below:
lrwxr-xr-x 1 KalpinBot KalpinBot 14 May 15 2009 eggdrop -> eggdrop-1.6.18
3. change directory to your home directory; type: cd
4a. if your old eggdrop is version 1.6.19, then type: cp -Rp /usr/src/eggdrop1.6.19 eggdrop1.6.19
4b. if your old eggdrop is version 1.6.18, then type: cp -Rp /usr/src/eggdrop1.6.18 eggdrop1.6.18
5. change directory to your eggdrop source which you copied above; type:
cd eggdrop1.6.18 (for version 1.6.18) OR
cd eggdrop1.6.19 (for version 1.6.19)
6. configure your eggdrop to use your old eggdrop config/scripts; type: ./configure –prefix=$HOME/eggdrop
if your old eggdrop directory is mybot, replace it with that name, see below:
./configure –prefix=$HOME/mybot
7. recompile it now; type: make config && make && make install
8. if success, you can now run your eggdrop with old config/scripts/master bot

Thank you

Reinstalasi psyBNC setelah migrasi TS1

Seperti yang kita ketahui, bahwa server TS1 mengalami masalah dari tanggal 9 – 12 April 2010 yang mana permasalahan tersebut disebabkan oleh HD failed. Oleh karena kami selalu melakukan daily backup, maka kami tidak kuatir mengenai data yang ada karena tersimpan aman di server terpisah. Server UP kembali pada tanggal 12 April 2010, dengan sistem operasi FreeBSD 8.0-Stable di atas platform AMD 64 bit.
Oleh karena perbedaan platform (yang sebelumnya menggunakan 32 bit) maka semua aplikasi psybnc, eggdrop dan bnc harus diinstall ulang. Berikut adalah cara cepat reinstalasi psybnc yang sebelumnya sudah ada config lama.

1. Login ke server, atau hubungi staff kami jika Anda hanya menyewa psyBNC Admin/user
2. masuk ke direktory psybnc Anda.
contoh: cd psybnc
3. Ketik: make clean && rm -f psybnc
4. Ketik: make
5. Jalankan psyBNC Anda: ./psybnc

Dengan langkah-langkah diatas, psyBNC Anda akan berjalan dengan config yang sama, password yang sama. Jika Anda memiliki psyBNC user, maka mereka akan tetap bisa menggunakannya.

Semoga bermanfaat.

In Indonesia
Pelanggan yang terhormat,

Kami mendapat informasi dari DALnet mengenai masalah yang dihadapi oleh beberapa pelanggan kami, terkait dengan pesan error: “Too many connection from your host” saat melakukan koneksi IRC ke DALnet. Kami mendapat update dari staff DALnet, seperti dibawah ini:

“Sebarkan user-usermu menggunakan vhost yang ada ke banyak server DALnet”
Artinya, jangan banyak-banyak user menggunakan vhost yang sama ke server DALnet yang sama.
Untuk itu, kami sarankan gunakan selalu round robin IRC DALnet dengan menambahkan /addserver irc.dal.net :6665 di psybnc Anda. Atau jika menggunakan eggdrop atau bnc, selalu gunakan /server irc.dal.net :6665
