Bots only kicking. not banning

X-File · Post by **X-File** » Thu Feb 19, 2004 11:41 am

If i set a ban on my bot it only kicks users and does not set the channel ban. what is wrong?

also. do the channel bans get removed after a while? I need the channel bans to be removed but the bot bans to be perm (to keep the channel ban list clean)

thanks for your help.

try .chanset channelname +enforcebans

<also. do the channel bans get removed after a while? I need the channel bans to be removed but the bot bans to be perm (to keep the channel ban list clean)>

read the eggdrop.conf carefully and watch out for dynamic-bans.

both enforce bans and dynamic bans are set to + gloably and for each channel in the conf file

Than the ban's should be removed after the specified time (in the conf). The bot will keep them in its internal banlist permanent. To set a temp ban, add the bantime.

If the bot just kick but don't set a ban and isn't removing the bans from the channel banlist, check out if you choose the right network txype in the conf.

# This setting is used only for info to share with others on your botnet.
# Set this to the IRC network your bot is connected to.
set network "ETG"

but that says it is only for info.

set ban-time 120

so in 120 minutes the bans will be removed. thanks i did not see this before

but my main problem is the bots not banning when a host matching its internal ban list joins the channel. it will only kick

all the settings you told me to check are set right

someone told me in irc that they have this in a script for their eggdrop. but it is for version 1.1.5. i tried it in 1.6.15 and it still is only kicking people and not banning

here is the script

#################
#Kick/Ban Script#
#################

bind flud - * do_floods
proc do_floods {nick userhost handle type channel} {
putserv "MODE $channel +b $userhost"
if {$type == "join"} {
putserv "KICK $channel $nick :Boot! Now you can cycle my nuts"
}
return 1;
}

check your max-bans max-modes or net-type settings.. sounds like your bot is reaching a limit of modes or thinks the banlist is full..

well i think i found the problem. my bots are in 2 channels. they set the bans in the channel that they say they are monitoring in the dcc chat. the same channel its always giving stats for. how can i change the channel its monitoring?

for example instead of the bots giving stat updates #channel1 in the dcc session i want it to give updates (and ban) in #channel2

for some reason its only setting bans in one of the channels the bots are in even though they are global bans

I have checked all the settings you guys have suggested to look at. Any other suggestions?

how many bans are in that channel? perhaps the banlist is simply full

banlist was empty. I started from scratch. tripple checked all settings and now it seems to be working

thanks all

how about, you set a ban, bots kick user, user joins again because of the exemption list ?
