netupdate/control bots

Is it possible to set up netbots so it will accept all commands from all bots other then netupdate, and allow the hub to run a netupdate (as well as every other command)?

You need to fiddle around with nb_ctrlbots advanced mode:

To do what I think you'd want, you would in fact need to put every netbot command for the leaves, but only * for the hub. For example:

set nb_ctrlbots(TheHub) "*"
set nb_ctrlbots(*) "netsay,netinfo,neteveryothercommand"

The above would cause the bot to accept any netbot command from TheHub, and only the listed commands from any other netbot.
