It has to be your script or your client. That doesn't even match Unreal's syntax.

When I oper it says: When someone else opers it says: The [oper] in the last string is the user name used by JoeUser.

That is not a successful oper attempt at all.

What you are seeing is:
As far as I know, there are only 3 things you will see after OPER and before the oper login. The first is the one you have, UNKNOWNOPER, which means there is no matching O:Line in the configuration for the information provided for the O:Line kirangee by the user [email protected]. The other thing you might see is FAILEDAUTH, which means there was an O:Line for that login, but NOT a valid password provided. The last thing you might see is NOHOSTMATCH, which means the user's host did not match that in the O:Line.

Here are a couple examples from my test server:
OPER UNKNOWNOPER (blah) by (poop!ircd@localhost) User poop!ircd@localhost attempted to oper using the login blah, but there was no O:Line for that login.
OPER FAILEDAUTH (Stealth) by (poop!ircd@localhost) User poop!ircd@localhost attempted to oper using the login Stealth, but did not provide the correct password.
OPER NOHOSTMATCH (Stealth) by (poop!ircd@localhost) User poop!ircd@localhost attempted to oper using the login Stealth, but did not have a host matching the host defined in the oper block.

Again, these are logs of FAILED oper attempts, meaning the oper attempt was NOT successful.
