Can't /mode user across linked servers?

Blaza · Post by **Blaza** » Mon Oct 17, 2005 3:58 pm

I have two servers linked (one hub and one leaf), while I can /mode <user> on a local server (to see modes of a user) on either server, but if I /mode <user> and the user is on the other (linked) server, it returns nothing.

Why is this?

Thanks.

Also, why is it if I do a whois on someone on the other server, it doesn't show the "server notice mask" (for opers)

IE:

Code: Select all

Blaza is Blaza@...... * Blaza
Blaza is using modes +iowghaAxNt 
........
Blaza End of /WHOIS list.
-
blz is blz@..... * BLZ
blz is using modes +iowghaAsxNt +kcfvGqso
........
blz End of /WHOIS list.

Where as Blaza is on the other server (HUB) while blz is on the other (current/local server (LEAF), where I sent these two /whois queries from.)

Is it possible to see the "+kcfvGqso" part reguardless if the other oper is on the same server (in a network of linked servers) or not?

Thank you

About the mode thing: Use /whois to see modes.

About seeing snomaks in whois: use /whois Nick Nick

Snomasks aren't propegated between servers. Using /whois nick nick means the ircd will forward the request to the user's home server so you get their idle time and so on.
