Strange error with .tcl and .set

[CrazyCat]

Hello there,

I use a generic .conf for my eggdrops and it works fine with most of them.
Inside, I've:

Code: Select all

#unbind dcc n tcl *dcc:tcl
#unbind dcc n set *dcc:set

10 of my eggdrops accept the .tcl or .set command but the 2 lastest I'd installed refuse it ("What? You need .help")

any idea?

[rosc2112]

Change the unbind to bind, and remove the #

Oh..and rehash..


<wondering if anyone ever reads the faq...>

Yup indeed Bizarre, coz i m having the same thing for all my bots, and it s working :

# Comment these two lines if you wish to enable the .tcl and .set commands.
# If you select your owners wisely, you should be okay enabling these.
#unbind dcc n tcl *dcc:tcl
#unbind dcc n set *dcc:set

this is the trouble I have and can't understand:
all my eggdrops use the same .conf structure, I just change the username and the listening ports (I use variables) and only 2 of my bots don't have the .tcl and .set command.

All bots have been restarted recently...

@rosc2112 : I think I know really well the FAQ, I know ways to correct this trouble, I just want to understand why the same .conf doesn't work the same way.

EDIT: why this ***** set owner was changed? this was the trouble

Check out the must-be-owner setting as well.

Edit: Thanks nml375

@Sir_Fz:
You got the name dead on

# Un-comment the next line and set the list of owners of the bot.
# You NEED to change this setting.
#set owner "MrLame, MrsLame"

...

# If you enable this setting, only permanent owners (owner setting) will be
# able to use .tcl and .set. Moreover, if you want only let permanent owners
# use .dump, then set this to 2.
set must-be-owner 1

this setting was ok (set to 1) but for a stupid reason, the owner was setted to "Nobody".

stupid me, I forget I'd changed it to show a "good" .conf file to someone, and most of my settings are at the top of the file (my .conf is quite dynamic), so I forget it (loose in the deep of the file).

btw, it was a good way to re-learn the config file

[Sir_Fz]

If must-be-owner is set to 0 (i.e. disabled) then any +n user can use the .tcl and .set commands (just to make this clear).

[CrazyCat]

yes, I know it well, but I'm quite paranoïd even if I'm the only owner
