@Annwenn got me opering at her network after long pause with my opering.
|
|
She also named this blogpost and requested me to write this and I don't
|
|
have any better place where to put this, but I am starting with other talk
|
|
before getting to the subject.
|
|
|
|
It appears that I am not as bad oper as I thought as I was able to identify
|
|
and find solutions to multiple issues including server-side aliases not
|
|
working, SASL being loaded with services, but not with IRCd, CertFP loaded
|
|
with services, but not IRCd, missing oper-only channels (and allowing
|
|
everyone to join #services) etc.
|
|
|
|
The services package is Atheme and IRCd InspIRCd which are the same I would
|
|
have picked if I had started running IRC server which I was avoiding
|
|
before. The forks of Atheme don't have any stable releases yet and Atheme
|
|
is still getting security fixes.
|
|
|
|
I am not linking to the network or complete issue list here as I don't want
|
|
too much traffic there.
|
|
|
|
And now to the subject.
|
|
|
|
First, register a channel, for example #test.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
/join #test
|
|
/cs register #test
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
2. Register the group !test
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
/msg groupserv register !test
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
3. Set options & flags at #test. The following are what I usually set to
|
|
channels.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
/cs set #test GUARD ON
|
|
/cs set #test MLOCK
|
|
/cs set #test PRIVATE ON
|
|
/cs set #test NOSYNC OFF
|
|
/cs set #test SECURE ON
|
|
/cs set #test TOPICLOCK ON
|
|
/cs set #test VERBOSE ON
|
|
/cs flags #test $oper +Aehiortv
|
|
/cs flags #test !test +AiV
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Here $oper adds people who are opered to access list (if EXTTARGET $oper is
|
|
enabled) and allows people who have +c in group !test to see the access
|
|
list (even with PRIVATE on), invite themselves or see the channel key using
|
|
ChanServ and have autovoice on the channel.
|
|
|
|
4. Set the options and flags of !test.4. Set the options and flags of
|
|
!test.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
/msg groupserv set !test channel #test
|
|
/msg groupserv set !test joinflags +cvi
|
|
/msg groupserv set !test open on
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
joinflags +cvi means that when people join the group, they automatically
|
|
have +cvi which allows them to have access in channels where !test has
|
|
flags, take vhosts which are offered to the group and invite other people
|
|
to the group.
|
|
|
|
5. Offer vhosts to the group (requires you to be oper).
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
/hs offer !test test/$account
|
|
/hs offer !test tester/$account
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
6. Take one of the vhosts.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
/hs offerlist
|
|
/hs take tester/$account
|
|
/hs on
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`/hs offerlist` shows which vhosts are offered to you or groups where you
|
|
have `+v`.
