botnet : ban in ONLY 1 bot

Post by dusk »

I'm experimenting for the first time witch a botnet, userfile-sharing works fine but is there a way to add a ban on 1bot only, without the other bots automatically setting the ban to...(even when they are on the same chans? / like .+ban user #channel --> only has to be set in banlist of 1bot, while a bot in the same channel does not take over the ban over te botnet)

Thx

no, not without disabling share

your ircd shouldn't allow setting identical modes (bans) from different clients (bots); if you observed such behaviour, it's probably due to lag

Thx for that quick reply 'demond' :). Indeed the server doesn't allow the bots (or any user) to set a second ban on a channel of the same host...
But I didn't wanted an entry into a leaf-bots's internal banlist everytime I setted a ban on the hub....
Now I know it isn't possible so I just set the hub (wich act a bit like a service-bot) on every channel a leaf is on, but not two leafs on the same channel...prob solved :)

Thx a lot for the info....

well the whole point of ban sharing is to provide ban enforcing redundancy, i.e. when a bot isn't on the channel for some reason (offline, split, changing servers, etc.), another bot enforces the ban as necessary

if your bots are on different channels, you should set channel-specific bans in the bot, not global bans
