Aliases and services ...

[pseudocode]

Hello all; I am not sure if this is in the right forum. I was confused as to whether this post should go in the Services forum or this forum; I aplogize if a move is necessary. I decided to post in this forum because I'm not sure that services are at fault.

I have recently setup UnrealIRCd 3.2.3 on my network, and have added services (IRCServices, to be exact). I decided that using aliases wouldn't hurt, so I setup aliases for IRCServices by adding this line to the end of my configuration file:

Code: Select all

include "aliases/ircservices.conf";

I rehashed the server and everything seemed fine. However, there is a small problem with the aliases:

The aliases are actually recognized by the server (this is good), but when I send a command using an alias, I get no reply from services.

For example, if I try:

/quote identify <pass>

I get no reply from NickServ that my identification succeeded.

Any help is appareciated; I checked my logs, and I found nothing relevant.

Best regards,
Willie.

Problem supposedly solved...

It appears that I had my set::services-server option set incorrectly. I had this set to my domain name, but this did not work, although this is where services are run.

However, setting services-server to 127.0.0.1 (the link name of my IRC services), the aliases work without problem.

Thanks,
Willie.

Note also that aliases such as /ns etc still work (i'm not actually sure on this but i believe it works).

Yes, I did note this, and all the aliases in aliases/ircservices.conf work great.
