Actually, that's in a privmsg by itself. It's essentially creating a whole bunch (one for every (in a production) ~1000000+ rooms) of virtual channels for people to talk in. That's not the ultimate purpose of the bot anyway

I've been working on this cute little bot for quite some time now. It's a primitive wannabe MUD that runs on top of an IRC server. Unfortunately, as it is currently designed it only works with certain IRCds (Unreal being one of them) but I'll eventually add a toggle to allow it to work with all IRCd...

Not directly. There is a thing called NAT (Network Address Translation) that can probably do what you want, but that's not directly related to UnrealIRCd. Google is your friend

Clip the last F on OTECHStaff on each line. Usernames are limited to 10 characters, and with the probable tilde that's 9. My hostmask for my allow {} block reads *roothoric@* for exactly the same reason (note no K).

allow { ip OTECHStaff@*; hostname OTECHStaff@*; class opers; password "test"; maxperip 30; }; Put an asterisk before "OTECHStaff" on both lines. That should catch the leading tilde if you don't have ident running.

that's why I thought of changing opers' connection class with oper::class when I first read this topic. The problem with that is, again, the opers have to find room in the "clients" class first. What if there's some form of DoS or DDoS going on that exploits connection limits? Then opers ...

For smaller games and/or less demanding stuff (RPG? ;p heh) it can be quite useful since you get the whole "network infrastructure" for free ;). Funny you say that... I have an MUD ( = Multi-User Dungeon, essentially a text-based MMORPG) engine written in Python that runs on top of an exi...

Also note that you probably need to have set::options::identd-check enabled and also must be running a correct identd server yourself. Not necessarily. I'd prefer having identd disabled and tell the IRC client what to send for the username, as it's IMO a bit easier. That's part of why the asterisk ...

I feel like taking a crack at this, so heck. My best guess is setting up ops as a separate class with its own limits: class ops { pingfreq 90; maxclients 100; sendq 100000; recvq 8000; }; (These numbers may need adjusting) Then, have each op sign on with an arbitrary username (in this case "sta...

Where and how are the settings in the set::hosts block used? No matter what I set these to, they don't seem to do anything. For reference, here's what I currently have them set to (doesn't seem like a security risk to post this): hosts { local "fgnet.op"; global "fgnet.op"; coadm...

It's worthwhile to note that UnrealIRCd 3.2 example.conf includes both in the "bobsmith" example, which apparently is misleading.

I think I know why there's so many "not off topic" posts in the Off Topic forum -- because they ARE off-topic -- there's no appropriate forum for them. There's no forum for UnrealIRCd discussion that's not support or related to modules, spam filters, or bug/feature requests. Don't you thin...
