I just upgraded/replaced the code I was running from 0.5.5 to 6.3 and now the !items command times out and hangs the bot until it gets the timeout message.

This function worked in previous incarnations, and I have rummaged thru the code, but can't figure out where it is going wrong.

Code: [Select]

botname [2009-05-30 13:05:53]        [GROUP] [MSG]   [org channel] org_member: !Items Stalker

Resolved...

vhabot.net seems to have moved to an ip network that was previously a reserved network. 79.0.0.0/8 This was being blocked at our firewall, so not sure how it was working before.

Sometimes ya gotta look beyond the code ^_^

Makes me wonder why that range was blocked to begin with

But you're observations are right. The server used to be in 85.92.x and now is in 79.99.x.

Hi Vhab,

The 79/8 was in a list published as bogon... in other words the IANA had not released it yet for use, so it was not considered a valid address range. To cut down on ip spoofing, many firewalls block these IANA Bogon addresses.

BTW... Vhab, Thanks for all you do for the bot admins! AND thanks to all those coders who come up with the nice modules.
