I am attempting to set up an IRC bot (phenny) and I have gotten as far as editing default.py to say:
nick = 'Willdudebot123'
host = irc.freenode.net
channels = ['#FunkyChicken']
owner = 'Willdude123'
But when I run phenny.py, it connects to freenode, and then, after about 10 seconds, it drops out. Any ideas? By the way I am on Debian Linux.
