kudos with another problem, anope service aliases

[shock]

ok so services get called when i pm them, but aliases are not working (i am almost at the root of the problem, so this shouldnt take long)
eg..
when I do /msg chanserv help
the anope -debug -nofork mode shows..

[Dec 10 00:29:53 2005] debug: Received: :Shock PRIVMSG operserv :help
[Dec 10 00:29:53 2005] OperServ: Shock: help

but when i do /nickserv help..
input going in is..

[Dec 10 00:39:36 2005] debug: Received: :Shock PRIVMSG [email protected] :help

so how do i solve this problem..

my aliases in unrealircd.conf are

alias nickserv { type services; };
alias ns { target nickserv; type services; };
alias chanserv { type services; };
alias cs { target chanserv; type services; };
alias memoserv { type services; };
alias ms { target memoserv; type services; };
alias operserv { type services; };
alias os { target operserv; type services; };
alias helpserv { type services; };
alias botserv { type services; };
alias bs { target botserv; type services; };
alias hostserv { type services; };
alias hs { target hostserv; type services; };

alias identify {
format "^#" {
target chanserv;
type services;
parameters "IDENTIFY %1-";
};
format "^[^#]" {
target nickserv;
type services;
parameters "IDENTIFY %1-";
};
type command;
};

alias services {
format "^#" {
target chanserv;
type services;
parameters "%1-";
};
format "^[^#]" {
target nickserv;
type services;
parameters "%1-";
};
type command;
};

alias register {
format "^#" {
target chanserv;
type services;
parameters "REGISTER %1-";
};
format "^[^#]" {
target nickserv;
type services;
parameters "REGISTER %1-";
};
type command;
};

so any idea?

that seems right. where do you out that. in your server config file or do you called it.

Send me the link to your server and i will come help you

Having the alias file in Unreal is only part of it..

set::services-server name must match the ServerName from the anope config, othwise anope will not realize the message is for it and ignore the message
