Your network uses IRCServices, right? In which case, read this.

If you don't use IRCServices - well, read it anyway, it will give you an idea about what session limiting is. The solution would be to use a different configuration for your services. (This is definitely a services issue; the closest that UnrealIRCd itself comes to session limiting is the allow::maxperip directive, and that squishes new connections instantaneously without quit messages like the one that you gave us.)

First off, sorry about the double post earlier - varsity network is screwing me over. Again.

Secondly, you'll have to dig up Anope's configuration file(s) and turn off session limiting. You'll have to ask someone else about that, or figure out how to do it yourself, as I don't use Anope. (Just in case you haven't worked it out by now, I use IRCServices.)

If you don't know how to set session limits, perhaps you don't even know where to find information about that, in which case you shouldn't use Anope.

Code: Select all

/msg operserv help session
Also see the LimitSessions configuration directive.

Additionally, this is Unreal 3.2 support, and not the place to talk more about the issue. I suggest moving this topic to the Services forum.

That's not the proper way to turn of session limits. "/os exception" is what we explicitly use to define exceptions. The default value is set with the DefSessionLimit configuration directive, that's what you should change to a higher number if 3 isn't enough for you. Or if your goal is to disable session limits, then simply comment out the LimitSessions directive.

session limits

Post by mad_dog »

try this
/os userlist

u will probably see the nick in that list that is getting session limit killed and will see them 3 times. use /os killclone nick and it will kill all images of that user, then /os akill list and remove from akill list /os akill del [number]

this should fix it

That won't fix anything, in fact it sounds like it would only make things worse!

That doesn't stop people from being killed for session limits, it kills them *again* and temporarily removes the ban which the session limiter will readd the next time they exceed the limit!
