Ban Nick Mask

Post by Prism128 »

Hey,

I'm currently running an IRC network, but it seems that half of the users connecting like to bring a bot with them...

Is there a way I can make it so the ban nick mask bans all usernames with the word Bot in? However (this is the tricky part), i need to allow my bot onto the server (which has bot in its name), as it provides some necessary services... and changing it's name is not an option...

Thanks in advance; any help appreciated! :D

User names or real names?

Either or both... just some way to help limit the number of bots joining...

Thanks :)

Code: Select all

ban nick {
    mask *Bot*;
    reason "no bots";
};
excpet tkl {
    mask [email protected];
    type qline;
};

If that's the correct mask of your bot... yes :D
