Private Messages and Services

I have two services running - NeoStats with LogServ, and Thale.

I've been looking through the source code for each service, and I can't figure out why UnrealIRCD sends private messages to NeoStats, but not to Thale.

How can I get Thale to receive private messages?

Umm, you can't. Thales has no clients, therefore there is no reason to ever send it a PRIVMSG. And, NeoStats does NOT receive all PRIVMSGs, it only receives those addressed to the clients on the neostats server, e.g., LogServ. There is no way to make it send all the PRIVMSGs, and we will not make it possible. The only thing that could possibly be used for is to spy on people's conversations.

My intent is not to spy. I finally figured out that Thales gets privmsgs by actually joining a channel. I'm not sure exactly how to get Thales to do that -- NeoStats and LogServ show up in the #services channel, whereas Thales does not.

Thanks for the help.

Because Thales does not connect any clients. Therefore, there is client to join #services.
