CTCP version

Post by brood »

People can CTCP to a nick/bot and use VERSION to see some info like:

[botnick VERSION reply]: eggdrop v1.6.18

Is it possible to secure this part?

Code: Select all

set ctcp-mode 0 
Set here how the ctcp module should answer ctcps. There are 3 possible operating modes:

0 Normal behavior is used. 
1 The bot ignores all ctcps, except for CHAT and PING requests by users with the +o flag. 
2 Normal behavior is used, however the bot will not answer more than X ctcps in Y seconds (defined by 'set flood-ctcp'). 

There are also several variables to help make your bot less noticeable. They are: ctcp-version, ctcp-finger, and ctcp-userinfo. You can use set to set them to values you'd like.

In addition to YooHoo's suggestions, you might also choose to not load the ctcp-module at all, and thus disable any native ctcp-support. However, setting ctcp-mode to 1 should be sufficient for most users...
