I know the people who run this forum discourage just 'rtfm', so, i'll try and add a bit more meat to it.

Open example.conf, and search for NSRegDelay

*EDIT* Also see NickRegDelay to prevent users from connecting and automatically registering.

(Assuming you use Anope, because you never said WHAT Services package you used :roll:)

You can still search the example.conf for anything with 'Delay' in it, and read the description about each option.

If it's in there, it's going to be under the Nickserv section somewhere.

From someone who uses IRCServices...

Open up modules.conf, and look for these directives:

Code: Select all

# NSRegDelay <time>  [RECOMMENDED]
# Sets the minimum length of time between consecutive uses of the
# REGISTER command.  If not given, this restriction is disabled.
#
# WARNING: Not setting NSRegDelay, or setting it too low, will not
# only allow "registration flooding", but, if the
# mail-auth module is also loaded, will also allow users
# to abuse this command to send large quantities of mail
# (mailbombs) to arbitrary users!

NSRegDelay		5m

# NSInitialRegDelay <time>  [OPTIONAL]
# Sets the minimum length of time the user must be connected before
# using the REGISTER command for the first time.  If not given,
# this restriction is disabled.  This option can be helpful in
# preventing malicious bots from flooding your network with
# registrations.

#NSInitialRegDelay	30s
And modify to suit your needs.

(I included the default settings for you)
