is there anyway to make an oper only for where you can only oper-up on,

e.g port 7750

instead of of the normal chat ports so its a lil more secure

many thanks

There is not a way to do this.

If you are looking to secure your oper blocks you shouldn't have a problem if you follow suggestions put on these forums for doing so.

To make a secure oper block, do the following: 1) require opers to use SSL client certs to authenticate; 2) if #1 cannot be done use hashed passwords in your configuration; 3) limit how many users can be logged for each oper block with oper::maxlogins in each oper block; 4) set host restrictions on what hosts opers can login from using from::userhost.
