Multiple Bot Owners?

[thenerdtv]

Hi,

I'm pretty new to Eggdrop and I'm hosting bot for a couple people on my VPS. They can control the bot just fine, but I want to be able to control it too, like having multiple owners.. How can I do this?

Thanks in advance,
Charles

Code: Select all

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

After that...

<you> /msg botnick hello
<botnick> You are owner, etc, set a pass, etc ...
<you> /msg botnick pass your-pass-here
<botnick> your pass is your-pass-here. write that down, etc

Conversely, you can also...

.adduser yournick
.chattr yournick +n

Not quite the same as having your nickname in the owner field and messaging the bot "hello", but very very close to it...

Code:
# Un-comment the next line and set the list of owners of the bot.
# You NEED to change this setting.
set owner "them you"

Ok, I had it configured like

Code: Select all

set owner "them"
set owner "me"

That fixed that problem. Thanks. I do have one more concern, on all my bots (even my own bot in my room) it will not respond to any of the default commands (basically none of the .whatever commands) in chat or message. Any idea what's causing that?

Thanks!

After those two commands are issued it's expected you will use the party-line to handle the rest of the configuration from there forward. If you mean "party-line (dcc-chat) commands with the bot don't work". Which is after you login to party-line, these truly aren't working, you'll need to post more info..

If you mean channel commands and message commands aren't working. These are added to eggdrop sourcing extensions such as modules and tcl scripts. These are (usually) insecure, access to party-line is strict and therefore much more secure.
