kill protection mode for Opers or Services

UnrealIRCD don't have opermode to protect services and opers from kills.

opermode +q and mode +S for services don't protect...

In a future version this mode will be enabled or modified ?

sorry for my bad english

Don't give people oper access if you don't trust them. Follow that easy rule and you don't need any "kill protection".

If you absolutely need this feature, you can buy the "IRCOpProtect" module by Syzop: http://www.unrealircd.com/index.php?pag ... dule&id=13

Most services packages will ignore a /kill for a Service.

Like Dukat said, if you don't trust them, don't let them have an O:line. Even if you trust the person, make sure they understand the rules, and simply take their O:line if they abuse it by trying to kill other opers or services.

The simplest way to do that:
- Comment the O:line in the conf.
- /kill the abusive oper.

First of all, services can't ignore a kill, they have to reintroduce the killed user, because as each server passes on the kill, it removes the service client.

If usermode +S on a service isn't working, it's because your U:Lines aren't configured properly. Fix them. IRCops should never have +S because that is strictly for services.

isnt there a script around for an irc client to protect them from this exact question?

just a thought as i saw something on it earlier, possibly scriptgateway or something being the site?
