Here it is, a module to display the status of your Ventrilo server.

Pre-Installation:
This module needs The ventrilo_status program to function. The ventrilo_status program for Windows, Linux i386, Solaris SPARC, Solarias x86, FreeBSD x86, NetBSD x86, and Mac OSX PowerPC can be found in the server version of Ventrilo. Download from Ventrilo.com. This module will obviously only work on the platforms supported by the Ventrilo binaries.

Disclaimer: Ventrilo's license does not allow unauthorized redistribution of their binaries, as such they are not included with this module. Also, I do not want the responsibility of ensuring that a binary executable is free from viruses and other security risks. You should only download ventrilo_status from Ventrilo.com

Pre-Installation (Cont.):
Download the Ventrilo server and locate the ventrilo_status (or ventrilo_status.exe for windows users) and place it somewhere on your harddrive. The default location for this module is in your BeBot's extras directory. 

Required Configuration
Before you can use the Ventrilo module, you must configure it.

/tell yourbot !set Ventrilo server <hostname or ip address> (Required!)
/tell yourbot !set Ventrilo port <port number> (Required!)

Optional Configuration
/tell yourbot !set Ventrilo password <password> (Only required if your Ventrilo server requires a password to obtain status via ventrilo_status. If your server does not require this, don't set it!!! If your server requires a password, you must set a port!)

/tell yourbot !set Ventrilo prgpath <path to ventrilo_status> (Only required if you put ventrilo_status somewhere besides your BeBot's extras directory. Default: ./extras/. Example: c:\ventrilo\, /usr/local/bin/)

/tell yourbot !set Ventrilo showclient <On|Off> (Enables and disables showing client information such as ping and time connected)
/tell yourbot !set Ventrilo showserver <On|Off> (Enables and disables showing server information)

Usage
Use the !vent command in tell, private group, or guild chat to display the status. Ventrilo admins will be displayed in red. Protected rooms will be highlighted in orange.

Does anyone have this module running on 4.3?  I had it running on all the 2.x but I can't get it to function w/ 4.x.

Changelog:
2.0.0: Updated for BeBot 0.4.

Are you using v2.0.0?

[Glarawyn]

I've heard Ventrilo made changes in the latest release that break this module. I'll have to check the output from vent_status on the latest Ventrilo server release. (My guild reported the issue, but I'm not exactly playing AO at the moment.)

For BeBot 0.4.X, make sure you download the latest version of the module.

[bmoscato]

Hi,

I'm using Bebot 4.3, Vent Server 3.0.2 and PHP vent status script 2.3.0.  These are all the latest files I can download.

I have the ventrilo_status file in the C:\Program Files\VentSrv and I direct the bot to that location to utilize file.

No, it just returns the form w/ all the base information.

Had some problems with this, too.
Got it to run with setting Ventrilo server to localhost (!set Ventrilo server localhost). But normal ip adresses like 127.0.0.1 don't seem to work.

[bmoscato]

Yeah, I tried localhost, 127.0.0.1 and the internal ip address of the NIC; all w/o any luck.

[Glarawyn]

Ventrilo servers no longer give out the UID for connected clients, which broke parsing of connected Ventrilo users. Easy fix.



Update to v2.0.1. See first post for download links.
