Accept only some irc client

Post by Ping »

I have read the documentation of unrealircd and I like to give ban the not authorized irc clients but I want to know if there is a module that does the opposite. That alone accepts certain irc clients (for my is easier to say which can connect since there is a great variety of irc clients and is tired to put those who are not accepted).

Best Regards.

For what is this modification? My net has own client made in VB and only we want to accept connections that use our client

All clients interact with the server THE EXACT SAME WAY. You can't tell them apart.

You need a bot made oper who would /ctcp <nick> version everyone when they connect and temporarily k-line the ones that you don't want.

Grunt is correct. You would need to either manually do it, or have a bot do it.

mIRC is the only client that forces its own version reply, (almost) any other client you can turn it off or change it. There is nothing to stop users who are using such clients from just changing it to the proper reply and getting past that.

And someone made a patch or something for mIRC.

Don't even need to patch mIRC

Code: Select all
