enable this setting in your conf file

set open-telnets 1

Do you mean

Code: Select all

set open-telnets 0

?
I want it disabled.
But disabling that doesnt remove the 'new' username that makes you the owner if you have a clean userlist

set protect-telnet 1
set open-telnets 0

unbind msg - hello *msg:hello
bind msg - <yourgreet> *msg:hello

well you can still login with NEW in telnet and become owner?

Code: Select all

# This setting will drop telnet connections not matching a known host. It
# greatly improves protection from IRCops, but makes it impossible to add
# hosts on limbo (NOIRC) bots or have NEW as a valid login.
set protect-telnet 1

when you start the bot without a userfile (-m option) you can telnet the bot and type NEW as a username to be added.

once you have a userfile this wont work, though.

same goes for the '/msg bot hello' command, assuming open-telnets is set to 0.

exactly..
But I dont want to be able to telnet to the bot and type NEW as a username even if there is now userlist.
What do I do?

Code: Select all

adduser username *!*@host.

you probly want to add flags and pwd as well.. see tcl-dommands.doc for details

but I want a clean userfile.. The bot is suppose to get the users from the hub...

ah
well then this entire discussion is meaningless.

the userfile from the hub will be overwriting the leaf userfile

and you will have to tell the leaf to get the userfile from your hub (ie. add the hub to your leafbot userfile)

I know... I just wanted to know how to disable the 'new' username when the userfile is empty..
