Greetings!

One of my IRCop is having a strange problem. When he tries tthe /oper command OperServ send to him a "Unknown MODE flag" message ininterruptely, making his internet conection die.

What can be? I'm using UnrealIRCd 3.2 and Anope 1.6.0

I can safely say I havent had such a problem, try upgrading Anope. The current stable is 1.6.2, from memory.

(sssh w00t)

well I can honestly say I haven't had that problem... If I were you I'd try catching up on some reading.... like that part that says /oper (anything) isn't probably a command that would work with services.

I think what you might be trying to do is:

/oper (a command) to services (operserv)

which in anyones book isn't a smart idea.... but if you aren't... good...

jewles: I dont think he's trying to oper to operserv, that'd not bring that error up...

Code: Select all

[09:52] <w00t> oper blah blah
[09:52] OperServ[[email protected]] Syntax: OPER {ADD|DEL|LIST|CLEAR} [nick | entry-list]
[09:52] OperServ[[email protected]] /msg OperServ HELP OPER for more information.

Sounds like the ircd is passing something to services that services doesnt like. Probably a configuration problem.[/code]

But why would that make services spit out a numeric? The most helpful thing here would be to see some debug output from the client.

Actually, probably right. More than likely a client thing, since if it were services, it would send the error: services->ircd not services->user...

Lost me.
