How to disable the /MSG HELP to prevent recognizing bot

Sloop · Post by **Sloop** » Sat Jul 16, 2005 10:18 am

Hi alltogether,

I realized when I send a /MSG to my bot with the text "help", I will get a private notice with the commands available as a reply from my bot.

When someone else send this command he gets a reply "No access."

How can I disable this, so anyone else can not recognize my bot??
I switched everything to stealth and queit messages in my config file.

Help appreciated.

Tnx in advance,
Sloop

it is a built-in bind.

unbind msg - help *msg:help

edit: copy&paste the unbind into your config file and rehash

I checked all my scripts which are loaded,but I could NOT FIND anything with help regarding this problem.

But I realized that ALL my bots respong to /msg botname help with a private notice of this:

[16:45:21] • [Notice-Private] entertainer (~botname@10.20.30.40) : /MSG commands for entertainer:
[16:45:23] • [Notice-Private] entertainer (~botname@10.20.30.40) : All users: ADDHOST HELP IDENT INFO PASS VOICE WHO WHOIS
[16:45:25] • [Notice-Private] entertainer (~botname@10.20.30.40) : Channel/global ops: OP INVITE GO KEY
[16:45:27] • [Notice-Private] entertainer (~botname@10.20.30.40) : Global masters: DIE JUMP MEMORY SAVE REHASH RESET
[16:45:29] • [Notice-Private] entertainer (~botname@10.20.30.40) : Channel masters: STATUS
[16:45:31] • [Notice-Private] entertainer (~botname@10.20.30.40) : For help on a command, /MSG entertainer HELP <command>. You are a master. Many many more commands are available via dcc chat. There may also be additional commands provided by other modules.

What exactly do you want? you want this command to be unavailable or you want it to be available for everybody?

I want that do disable for normal public users, the should NOT GET a reply, else they could know that this is an eggdrop. I want prevent that.

Only identified users with matching hostmask in my eggdrop user list, should be able to use this /MSG commands. Although I don't really need them, because I do everything with Telnet-Connect and Partyline

But can you tell me how to do disable these /MSG commands to my bots?

Try loading this proc:

Code: Select all

proc *msg:help {nick uhost hand arg} {
 if {[matchattr $hand n]} {
  puthelp "NOTICE $nick :/MSG commands for $::botnick:"
  puthelp "NOTICE $nick :All users: ADDHOST HELP IDENT INFO PASS VOICE WHO WHOIS"
  puthelp "NOTICE $nick :Channel/global ops: OP INVITE GO KEY"
  puthelp "NOTICE $nick :Global masters: DIE JUMP MEMORY SAVE REHASH RESET"
  puthelp "NOTICE $nick :Channel masters: STATUS" 
  puthelp "NOTICE $nick :For help on a command, /MSG $::botnick HELP <command>. You are a master. Many many more commands are available via dcc chat. There may also be additional commands provided by other modules."
 }
}

Only owners should recieve the help commands.

Hey THANX!

Seems to work

BIG TNX to you

PS: And how would it be possible to COMPLETE DISABLE this? So my bot does NOT send back messages?

To completely remove it do what spock suggested.
