Anyway to unlock ' in unreal ircd?
Anyway to unlock ' in unreal ircd?
Is there anyway to unlock ' in unreal ircd for the nickname (like 'icex) or make it so no one other than operators can use _name. Reason being I'm creating a webchat for it, and it shows people thats +a (&) as a server op in the nicklist.
Or, is there a way to restrict +a to server operators only?
Thanks.

So you're making a webchat or using another one? Because if you use one, chances are it's not meant to handle +a and/or +q modes. I reccommend pjirc. And this has nothing to do with modules.

Well, shouldent had said making one, but we're using this one: http://www.xtcomputing.com//showthread. ... ge=1&pp=10 but fixing all the bugs and adding our own stuff to it (since its open source).
It's very easy to deny regular users the usage of _ in their nickname - use a ban nick block.

Operators may still use banned nicks.

If you don't make mistakes, you aren't really trying.

Whoah there. You can't use ANY nickname you want. It's the way of the irc protocol. All supported characters are: a-z, A-Z, 1-9, ` ^ - _ \ | [ ] { }. (The . is not included in the list). Plus, the nickname cannot start with a number.

The information Grunt gave you cannot be changed in any way. (Though you can, without extra effort, use 0 in your nick.) Noone, Oper or not, can use any other characters that those in nicks. However, using ban nick blocks, you can reserve other things for IRCops only.
Ex: Ban ^*, and only IRCops can use that. Then, since you are writing your own javachat (somewhat), you can program it to show that character as Server Operators.

YOU CAN'T USE ~ IN A NICK!
You can only use those characters, nothing more.

Ban nick does NOT add letters to the IRCop namespace. It removes things from the user namespace. You can take a character, like ^ that is in the normal user namespace, and remove it. This way, opers have ^ but users dont. This only will work if ^ was already in the user namespace. Once again, there is NO WAY TO ADD CHARACTERS TO THE NAMESPACE.
