Allow only specific users to create channels

[Ceroscuro]

I would like to set it up so that only specific users can create channels, but all users can join channels. Is this possible?

I know that I can make a deny block with the channel as "*", then create allow blocks for all channels that users should be able to join, but I would rather be able to give specific users the ability to create channels and deny that from all others.

As far as I know that isn't possible in this set-up.

i saw module before , when any one join empty chan the chaneserv will deop him

so no one can register channel then the user will join help to ask how to register channel

you need set::level-on-join set to none

Right from the docs:

Code: Select all

set::level-on-join <op|none>;
The mode that a user will get when he's the first to join a channel. This is either 'op' (channel operator, the default) or 'none'.

i did this set::level-on-join none;

but when i type rehash some error happened

Code: Select all

[09:05:21‹pm›] : [N] : Admin is rehashing server config file
[09:05:21‹pm›] : [N] : Loading IRCd configuration ..
[09:05:21‹pm›] : [N] : unrealircd.conf:2032: unknown directive set::level-on-join
[09:05:21‹pm›] : [N] : Configuration loaded without any problems ..

Upgrade to Unreal 3.2.8.1 or

Code: Select all

set {
level-on-join none;
};

As a technical note as to why it's better for the ircd to handle this instead of services is that the ircd does it locally when the user joins and the ircd simply doesn't op the user. IF services does this task, the ircd creates the channel, sets modes, ops the user, broadcasts to the entire network via s2s traffic, services reacts to the message, reverses the opmode.

In short, resources are saved due to a lack of action from the ircd vs reversing an action by services.
