 You can find the IP and port the bot is listening on by a) remembering what you set in the config file ;) or b) reading the display the bot presented when it started up. Look for a line that looks similar to this::
 
-  Listening for telnet connections on 192.0.2.1:3183 (all).
+  Listening for telnet connections on 2.4.6.9:3183 (all).
 
-This tells you that the bot is listening on IP 192.0.2.1, port 3183. If you see 0.0.0.0 listed, that means Eggdrop is listening on all available IPs on that particular host.

 If you choose not to telnet to connect to the partyline, you can either ``/dcc chat BotNick`` or ``/ctcp BotNick chat``. If one of those methods does not work for you, try the other. Once you're on the bot for the first time, type ``.help`` for a short list of available commands, or ``.help all`` for a more thorough list.

 * **PLAIN**: To use this method, set sasl-mechanism to 0. This method passes the username and password (set in the sasl-username and sasl-password config file settings) to the IRC server in plaintext. If you only connect to the IRC server using a connection protected by SSL/TLS this is a generally safe method of authentication; however you probably want to avoid this method if you connect to a server on a non-protected port as the exchange itself is not encrypted.

 * **EXTERNAL**: To use this method, set sasl-mechanism to 2. This method allows you to use other TLS certificates to connect to the IRC server, if the IRC server supports it. An EXTERNAL authentication method usually requires you to connect to the IRC server using SSL/TLS. There are many ways to generate certificates; one such way is generating your own certificate using::
 
     openssl req -new -x509 -nodes -keyout eggdrop.key -out eggdrop.crt
