Userfile sharing problem.

Hi, I have the botnet with netbots.tcl up and running and it works fine. I have a problem though. One of my bots ( not a hub ) is ( and should be ) alone on another channel. I cannot add anyone on that channel to the bots userfile, because it gets overwritten with the hubs userfile. Is there a way to preserve userfile entries in bots that aren't hubs ?

yeah that's a pain, that one... me personally, i'd add the user globally and set the flags only for that chan (.chattr user +xxx #chan) but that kind of sucks because your userfiles get bigger for no real purpose. you could do it in the config file where you can specify private users (private to the leaf bot), i don't know the exact commands inside the config but look for private-ops os something similair...

Hmm we had a similar Problem, this Problem only occurs if u have a chan and there is no hub in there. Our complete Botet everytime forgot the channel-flags of all user after a short while. We solved the problem in a quite simple way...try letting the hub-bot join each channel and set them +inactive
Then he didnt forget those flags anymore!
good luck

U can also try setting the bot not as global share (botattr +g). try setting +s for each chan he should share. Then this bot only shares the channel-information
