If you are talking about Anope:

You need to be using a nick that has access to add an admin (root)
You need to be identified for your nick.
You need to be opered (with at least global permissions).

IIRC, only the services root can add admins. This would be the nick you set as SerivcesRoot in services.conf

i put my nick as the services root nick, but it still says permission denied....

1. is the nick the nick you use as ur oper? or the nick your registered with nickserv with.

2. is the nick case sensitive

3. does the rehash command rehash the services.conf

1. You have to set your nick as a root in the Operserv ServicesRoot :

Code: Select all


###########################################################################
#
# OperServ configuration
#
###########################################################################

# ServicesRoot <nicks>  [REQUIRED]
#    Specifies the Services "super-users".  The super-users, or "roots" as in
#    Unix terminology, are the only users who can add or delete Services
#    admins.
#
#    You can specify more than one nick by separating each one by a space.
#
#    This is commented out by default; make sure you insert the correct
#    nick before uncommenting it.

ServicesRoot   "RootNickHere"

Then you have to register this nick:

Code: Select all

 /ns register nick password email

identify :

Code: Select all

 /ns identify password

so you can be able to add Operserv admins with :

Code: Select all

  /os admin add somenick

2. No, isn't the nick you use to oper and is cAsE SeNsItIvE for oper not for identify with services.

3. No, command /rehash does not rehash services.

*edit* I forgot, you MUST be an oper to do all of this.

ServicesRoot "snip"

[01:55:57] (Global) OperServ: snip is a SuperAdmin

[01:55:44] (Global) OperServ: snip: admin add bond
[01:55:44] Â â€ºâ€º [OperServ ([email protected])] Permission denied.

i really dont understand why its not working

Did snip got the suitable privileges on unrealIRCD ?
Did you /os update anope's databases before adding admins on Operserv?
What release of Anope Services you work on?

hi
if your nick is registered, you are logged as an ircop with /oper
you are superadmin, and in the /os staff
command there is a snip as root with a *
and yet u dont have the permision to add a admin...
then thats weird.. but make sure you reloaded the .conf
/os reload
or /os restart
and try again...
