BotServ allows you to have a bot on your own channel. It has been created for users that can't host or configure a bot, or for use on networks that don't allow users' bot. Available commands are listed below; to use them, type /msg BotServ command. For more information on a specific command, type /msg BotServ HELP command.
Syntax: /msg BotServ BOTLIST Syntax: BOTLIST Lists all available bots on this network.
Syntax: /msg BotServ ASSIGN chan nick Syntax: ASSIGN chan nick Assigns a bot pointed out by nick to the channel chan. You can then configure the bot for the channel so it fits your needs.
Syntax: /msg BotServ UNASSIGN chan Syntax: UNASSIGN chan Unassigns a bot from a channel. When you use this command, the bot won't join the channel anymore. However, bot configuration for the channel is kept, so you will always be able to reassign a bot later without have to reconfigure it entirely.
Syntax: /msg BotServ INFO {chan | nick} Syntax: INFO {chan | nick} Allows you to see BotServ information about a channel or a bot. If the parameter is a channel, then you'll get information such as enabled kickers. If the parameter is a nick, you'll get information about a bot, such as creation time or number of channels it is on.
Syntax: /msg BotServ SET (channel | bot) option parameters Syntax: SET (channel | bot) option parameters Configures bot options. option can be one of: DONTKICKOPS To protect ops against bot kicks DONTKICKVOICES To protect voices against bot kicks GREET Enable greet messages FANTASY Enable fantaisist commands SYMBIOSIS Allow the bot to act as a real bot Type /msg BotServ HELP SET option for more information on a specific option. Note: access to this command is controlled by the level SET.
Syntax: /msg BotServ SET channel DONTKICKOPS {ON|OFF} Syntax: SET channel DONTKICKOPS {ON|OFF} Enables or disables ops protection mode on a channel. When it is enabled, ops won't be kicked by the bot even if they don't match the NOKICK level.
Syntax: /msg BotServ SET channel DONTKICKVOICES {ON|OFF} Syntax: SET channel DONTKICKVOICES {ON|OFF} Enables or disables voices protection mode on a channel. When it is enabled, voices won't be kicked by the bot even if they don't match the NOKICK level.
Syntax: /msg BotServ SET channel FANTASY {ON|OFF} Syntax: SET channel FANTASY {ON|OFF} Enables or disables fantasy mode on a channel. When it is enabled, users will be able to use commands !op, !deop, !voice, !devoice, !kick, !kb, !unban, !seen on a channel (find how to use them; try with or without nick for each, and with a reason for some?). Note that users wanting to use fantaisist commands MUST have enough level for both the FANTASIA and another level depending of the command if required (for example, to use !op, user must have enough access for the OPDEOP level).
Syntax: /msg BotServ SET channel GREET {ON|OFF} Syntax: SET channel GREET {ON|OFF} Enables or disables greet mode on a channel. When it is enabled, the bot will display greet messages of users joining the channel, provided they have enough access to the channel.
Syntax: /msg BotServ SET channel SYMBIOSIS {ON|OFF} Syntax: SET channel SYMBIOSIS {ON|OFF} Enables or disables symbiosis mode on a channel. When it is enabled, the bot will do everything normally done by BotServ on channels, such as MODEs, KICKs, and even the entry message.

When enabled, this option tells the bot to kick users who are talking in CAPS. The bot kicks only if there are at least min caps and they constitute at least percent%% of the total text line (if not given, it defaults to 10 characters and 25%%). ttb is the number of times a user can be kicked before it get banned. Don't give ttb to disable the ban system once activated.
Syntax: /msg BotServ KICK channel FLOOD {ON|OFF} [ttb [ln [secs]]] Syntax: KICK channel FLOOD {ON|OFF} [ttb [ln [secs]]] Sets the flood kicker on or off. When enabled, this option tells the bot to kick users who are flooding the channel using at least ln lines in secs seconds (if not given, it defaults to 6 lines in 10 seconds). ttb is the number of times a user can be kicked before it get banned.

Syntax: /msg BotServ KICK #channel REPEAT {ON|OFF} [ttb [num]] Syntax: KICK #channel REPEAT {ON|OFF} [ttb [num]] Sets the repeat kicker on or off. When enabled, this option tells the bot to kick users who are repeating themselves num times (if num is not given, it defaults to 3). ttb is the number of times a user can be kicked before it get banned. Don't give ttb to disable the ban system once activated.
Syntax: /msg BotServ KICK #channel BADWORDS {ON|OFF} [ttb] Syntax: KICK #channel BADWORDS {ON|OFF} [ttb] Sets the bad words kicker on or off. When enabled, this option tells the bot to kick users who say certain words on the channels. You can define bad words for your channel using the BADWORDS command. Type /msg BotServ HELP BADWORDS for more information. ttb is the number of times a user can be kicked before it get banned. Don't give ttb to disable the ban system once activated.
Syntax: /msg BotServ BADWORDS channel ADD word [SINGLE | START | END] Syntax: BADWORDS channel ADD word [SINGLE | START | END] BADWORDS channel DEL {word | entry-num | list} BADWORDS channel LIST [mask | list] BADWORDS channel CLEAR Maintains the bad words list for a channel. The bad words list determines which words are to be kicked when the bad words kicker is enabled. For more information, type /msg BotServ HELP KICK BADWORDS. The BADWORDS ADD command adds the given word to the badword list. If SINGLE is specified, a kick will be done only if a user says the entire word. If START is specified, a kick will be done if a user says a word that starts with word. If END is specified, a kick will be done if a user says a word that ends with word. If you don't specify anything, a kick will be issued every time word is said by a user. The BADWORDS DEL command removes the given word from the bad words list. If a list of entry numbers is given, those entries are deleted. (See the example for LIST below.) The BADWORDS LIST command displays the bad words list. If a wildcard mask is given, only those entries matching the mask are displayed. If a list of entry numbers is given, only those entries are shown; for example: BADWORDS #channel LIST 2-5,7-9 Lists bad words entries numbered 2 through 5 and 7 through 9. The BADWORDS CLEAR command clears all entries of the bad words list.
Syntax: /msg BotServ SAY channel text Syntax: SAY channel text Makes the bot say the given text on the given channel.

Syntax: /msg BotServ BOT ADD nick user host real Syntax: BOT ADD nick user host real BOT CHANGE oldnick newnick [user [host [real]]] BOT DEL nick Allows Services admins to create, modify, and delete bots that users will be able to use on their own channels. BOT ADD adds a bot with the given nickname, username, hostname and realname. Since no integrity checks are done for these settings, be really careful. BOT CHANGE allows to change nickname, username, hostname or realname of a bot without actually delete it (and all the data associated with it). BOT DEL removes the given bot from the bot list. Note: you cannot create a bot that has a nick that is currently registered. If an unregistered user is currently using the nick, they will be killed.
These options are reserved to Services admins: NOBOT Prevent a bot from being assigned to a channel PRIVATE Prevent a bot from being assigned by non IRC operators
Syntax: /msg BotServ SET channel NOBOT {ON|OFF} Syntax: SET channel NOBOT {ON|OFF} This option makes a channel be unassignable. If a bot is already assigned to the channel, it is unassigned automatically when you enable the option.
Syntax: /msg BotServ SET bot-nick PRIVATE {ON|OFF} Syntax: SET bot-nick PRIVATE {ON|OFF} This option prevents a bot from being assigned to a channel by users that aren't IRC operators.
HostServ commands:
not used.
not used.
Syntax: /msg HostServ ON Syntax: ON Activates the vhost currently assigned to the nick in use. When you use this command any user who performs a /whois on you will see the vhost instead of your real IP address.
Syntax: /msg HostServ SET . Syntax: SET . Sets the vhost for the given nick to that of the given hostmask. If your IRCD supports vIdents, then using SET @ set idents for users as well as vhosts.
Syntax: /msg HostServ SETALL . Syntax: SETALL . Sets the vhost for all nicks in the same group as that of the given nick. If your IRCD supports vIdents, then using SETALL @ will set idents for users as well as vhosts. * NOTE, this will not update the vhost for any nick's added to the group after this command was used.
Syntax: /msg HostServ OFF Syntax: OFF Deactivates the vhost currently assigned to the nick in use. When you use this command any user who performs a /whois on you will see your real IP address.
Syntax: /msg HostServ DEL Syntax: DEL Deletes the vhost assigned to the given nick from the database.
Syntax: /msg HostServ DELALL . Syntax: DELALL . Deletes the vhost for all nick's in the same group as that of the given nick.
Syntax: /msg HostServ LIST [|<#X-Y>] Syntax: LIST [|<#X-Y>] This command lists registered vhosts to the operator if a Key is specified, only entries whos nick or vhost match the pattern given in are displayed e.g. Rob* for all entries beginning with "Rob" If a #X-Y style is used, only entries between the range of X and Y will be displayed, e.g. #1-3 will display the first 3 nick/vhost entries. The list uses the value of NSListMax as a hard limit for the number of items to display to a operator at any 1 time.
Syntax: /msg HostServ GROUP Syntax: GROUP This command allows users to set the vhost of their CURRENT nick to be the vhost for all nicks in the same group.
Syntax: /msg MemoServ SEND {nick | channel} memo-text Syntax: SEND {nick | channel} memo-text Sends the named nick or channel a memo containing memo-text. When sending to a nickname, the recipient will receive a notice that he/she has a new memo. The target nickname/channel must be registered.
Syntax: /msg MemoServ SENDALL memo-text Syntax: SENDALL memo-text Sends all registered users a memo containing memo-text.
Syntax: /msg MemoServ CANCEL {nick | channel} Syntax: CANCEL {nick | channel} Cancels the last memo you sent to the given nick or channel, provided it has not been read at the time you use the command.
Syntax: /msg MemoServ CHECK nick Syntax: CHECK nick Checks whether the _last_ memo you sent to nick has been read or not. Note that this does only work with nicks, not with chans.
Syntax: /msg MemoServ LIST [channel] [list | NEW] Syntax: LIST [channel] [list | NEW] Lists any memos you currently have. With NEW, lists only new (unread) memos. Unread memos are marked with a "*" to the left of the memo number. You can also specify a list of numbers, as in the example below: LIST 2-5,7-9 Lists memos numbered 2 through 5 and 7 through 9.
Syntax: /msg MemoServ READ [channel] {num | list | LAST | NEW} Syntax: READ [channel] {num | list | LAST | NEW} Sends you the text of the memos specified. If LAST is given, sends you the memo you most recently received. If NEW is given, sends you all of your new memos. Otherwise, sends you memo number num. You can also give a list of numbers, as in this example: READ 2-5,7-9 Displays memos numbered 2 through 5 and 7 through 9.
Syntax: /msg MemoServ RSEND {nick | channel} memo-text Syntax: RSEND {nick | channel} memo-text Sends the named nick or channel a memo containing memo-text. When sending to a nickname, the recipient will receive a notice that he/she has a new memo. The target nickname/channel must be registered. Once the memo is read by its recipient, an automatic notification memo will be sent to the sender informing him/her that the memo has been read.
Syntax: /msg MemoServ DEL [channel] {num | list | LAST | ALL} Syntax: DEL [channel] {num | list | LAST | ALL} Deletes the specified memo or memos. You can supply multiple memo numbers or ranges of numbers instead of a single number, as in the second example below. If LAST is given, the last memo will be deleted. If ALL is given, deletes all of your memos. Examples: DEL 1 Deletes your first memo. DEL 2-5,7-9 Deletes memos numbered 2 through 5 and 7 through 9.
Syntax: /msg MemoServ SET option parameters Syntax: SET option parameters Sets various memo options. option can be one of: NOTIFY Changes when you will be notified about new memos (only for nicknames) LIMIT Sets the maximum number of memos you can receive Type /msg MemoServ HELP SET option for more information on a specific option.
Syntax: /msg MemoServ SET NOTIFY {ON | LOGON | NEW | MAIL | NOMAIL | OFF} Syntax: SET NOTIFY {ON | LOGON | NEW | MAIL | NOMAIL | OFF} Changes when you will be notified about new memos: ON You will be notified of memos when you log on, when you unset /AWAY, and when they are sent to you. LOGON You will only be notified of memos when you log on or when you unset /AWAY. NEW You will only be notified of memos when they are sent to you. MAIL You will be notified of memos by email aswell as any other settings you have. NOMAIL You will not be notified of memos by email. OFF You will not receive any notification of memos. ON is essentially LOGON and NEW combined.
Syntax: /msg MemoServ SET LIMIT [channel] limit Syntax: SET LIMIT [channel] limit Sets the maximum number of memos you (or the given channel) are allowed to have. If you set this to 0, no one will be able to send any memos to you. However, you cannot set this any higher than %d.
Syntax: /msg MemoServ INFO [channel] Syntax: INFO [channel] Displays information on the number of memos you have, how many of them are unread, and how many total memos you can receive. With a parameter, displays the same information for the given channel.
Syntax: /msg MemoServ STAFF memo-text Syntax: STAFF memo-text Sends all services staff a memo containing memo-text. Note: If you have opers on both the oper list and the admin list they will receive the memo twice. The same applies for oper's on the Root list as well as other lists.
Syntax: /msg MemoServ SET LIMIT [user | channel] {limit | NONE} [HARD] Syntax: SET LIMIT [user | channel] {limit | NONE} [HARD] Sets the maximum number of memos a user or channel is allowed to have. Setting the limit to 0 prevents the user from receiving any memos; setting it to NONE allows the user to receive and keep as many memos as they want. If you do not give a nickname or channel, your own limit is set. Adding HARD prevents the user from changing the limit. Not adding HARD has the opposite effect, allowing the user to change the limit (even if a previous limit was set with HARD). This use of the SET LIMIT command is limited to Services admins. Other users may only enter a limit for themselves or a channel on which they have such privileges, may not remove their limit, may not set a limit above %d, and may not set a hard limit.
Syntax: /msg MemoServ INFO [nick | channel] Syntax: INFO [nick | channel] Without a parameter, displays information on the number of memos you have, how many of them are unread, and how many total memos you can receive. With a channel parameter, displays the same information for the given channel. With a nickname parameter, displays the same information for the given nickname. This use limited to Services admins.
OperServ commands:
Syntax: /msg OperServ GLOBAL message Syntax: GLOBAL message Allows Administrators to send messages to all users on the network. The message will be sent from the nick OperServ.
Syntax: /msg OperServ STATS [AKILL | ALL | RESET | MEMORY | UPLINK] Syntax: STATS [AKILL | ALL | RESET | MEMORY | UPLINK] Without any option, shows the current number of users and IRCops online (excluding Services), the highest number of users online since Services was started, and the length of time Services has been running. With the AKILL option, displays the current size of the AKILL list and the current default expiry time. The RESET option currently resets the maximum user count to the number of users currently present on the network. The MEMORY option displays information on the memory usage of Services. Using this option can freeze Services for a short period of time on large networks; don't overuse it! The UPLINK option displays information about the current server Anope uses as an uplink to the network. The ALL displays the user and uptime statistics, and everything you'd see with MEMORY and UPLINK options. UPTIME may be used as a synonym for STATS.
Syntax: /msg OperServ OPER ADD nick Syntax: OPER ADD nick OPER DEL {nick | entry-num | list} OPER LIST [mask | list] OPER CLEAR Allows the Services Root Admins to add or remove nicknames to or from the Services operator list. A user whose nickname is on the Services operator list and who has identified to OperServ will be able to access Services operator commands. The OPER ADD command adds the given nickname to the Services operator list. The OPER DEL command removes the given nick from the Services operator list. If a list of entry numbers is given, those entries are deleted. (See the example for LIST below.) The OPER LIST command displays the Services operator list. If a wildcard mask is given, only those entries matching the mask are displayed. If a list of entry numbers is given, only those entries are shown; for example: OPER LIST 2-5,7-9 Lists Services operator entries numbered 2 through 5 and 7 through 9. The OPER CLEAR command clears all entries of the Services operator list. Any IRC operator may use the OPER LIST form of the command.
Syntax: /msg OperServ ADMIN ADD nick Syntax: ADMIN ADD nick ADMIN DEL {nick | entry-num | list} ADMIN LIST [mask | list] ADMIN CLEAR Allows the Services root to add or remove nicknames to or from the Services admin list. A user whose nickname is on the Services admin list and who has identified to OperServ will be able to access Services admin commands. The ADMIN ADD command adds the given nickname to the Services admin list. The ADMIN DEL command removes the given nick from the Services admin list. If a list of entry numbers is given, those entries are deleted. (See the example for LIST below.) The ADMIN LIST command displays the Services admin list. If a wildcard mask is given, only those entries matching the mask are displayed. If a list of entry numbers is given, only those entries are shown; for example: ADMIN LIST 2-5,7-9 Lists Services admin entries numbered 2 through 5 and 7 through 9. The ADMIN CLEAR command clears all entries of the Services admin list. Any IRC operator may use the ADMIN LIST form of the command. All other use limited to Services root.
Syntax: /msg OperServ IGNORE {ADD|DEL|LIST|CLEAR} [time] [nick | mask] Syntax: IGNORE {ADD|DEL|LIST|CLEAR} [time] [nick | mask] Allows Services Admins to make Services ignore a nick or mask for a certain time or until the next restart. The default time format is seconds. You can specify it by using units. Valid units are: s for seconds, m for minutes, h for hours and d for days. Combinations of these units are not permitted. To make Services permanently ignore the user, type 0 as time. When adding a mask, it should be in the format user@host or nick!user@host, everything else will be considered a nick. Wildcards are permitted. Ignores will not be enforced on IRC Operators.
Syntax: /msg OperServ MODE channel modes Syntax: MODE channel modes Allows Services operators to set channel modes for any channel. Parameters are the same as for the standard /MODE command.
Syntax: /msg OperServ UMODE user modes Syntax: UMODE user modes Allows Super Admins to set user modes for any user. Parameters are the same as for the standard /MODE command.
Syntax: /msg OperServ OLINE user flags Syntax: OLINE user flags Allows Super Admins to give Operflags to any user. Flags have to be prefixed with a "+" or a "-". To remove all flags simply type a "-" instead of any flags.
Syntax: /msg OperServ CLEARMODES channel [ALL] Syntax: CLEARMODES channel [ALL] Clears all binary modes (i,k,l,m,n,p,s,t) and bans from a channel. If ALL is given, also clears all ops and voices (+o and +v modes) from the channel.
Syntax: /msg OperServ KICK channel user reason Syntax: KICK channel user reason Allows staff to kick a user from any channel. Parameters are the same as for the standard /KICK command. The kick message will have the nickname of the IRCop sending the KICK command prepended; for example: *** SpamMan has been kicked off channel #my_channel by OperServ (Alcan (Flood))
Syntax: /msg OperServ AKILL ADD [+expiry] mask reason Syntax: AKILL ADD [+expiry] mask reason AKILL DEL {mask | entry-num | list} AKILL LIST [mask | list] AKILL VIEW [mask | list] AKILL CLEAR Allows Services operators to manipulate the AKILL list. If a user matching an AKILL mask attempts to connect, Services will issue a KILL for that user and, on supported server types, will instruct all servers to add a ban (K-line) for the mask which the user matched. AKILL ADD adds the given user@host/ip mask to the AKILL list for the given reason (which must be given). expiry is specified as an integer followed by one of d (days), h (hours), or m (minutes). Combinations (such as 1h30m) are not permitted. If a unit specifier is not included, the default is days (so +30 by itself means 30 days). To add an AKILL which does not expire, use +0. If the usermask to be added starts with a +, an expiry time must be given, even if it is the same as the default. The current AKILL default expiry time can be found with the STATS AKILL command. The AKILL DEL command removes the given mask from the AKILL list if it is present. If a list of entry numbers is given, those entries are deleted. (See the example for LIST below.) The AKILL LIST command displays the AKILL list. If a wildcard mask is given, only those entries matching the mask are displayed. If a list of entry numbers is given, only those entries are shown; for example: AKILL LIST 2-5,7-9 Lists AKILL entries numbered 2 through 5 and 7 through 9. AKILL VIEW is a more verbose version of AKILL LIST, and will show who added an AKILL, the date it was added, and when it expires, as well as the user@host/ip mask and reason. AKILL CLEAR clears all entries of the AKILL list.
Syntax: /msg OperServ SGLINE ADD [+expiry] mask:reason Syntax: SGLINE ADD [+expiry] mask:reason SGLINE DEL {mask | entry-num | list} SGLINE LIST [mask | list] SGLINE VIEW [mask | list] SGLINE CLEAR Allows Services operators to manipulate the SGLINE list. If a user with a realname matching an SGLINE mask attempts to connect, Services will not allow it to pursue his IRC session. SGLINE ADD adds the given realname mask to the SGLINE list for the given reason (which must be given). expiry is specified as an integer followed by one of d (days), h (hours), or m (minutes). Combinations (such as 1h30m) are not permitted. If a unit specifier is not included, the default is days (so +30 by itself means 30 days). To add an SGLINE which does not expire, use +0. If the realname mask to be added starts with a +, an expiry time must be given, even if it is the same as the default. The current SGLINE default expiry time can be found with the STATS AKILL command. Note: because the realname mask may contain spaces, the separator between it and the reason is a colon. The SGLINE DEL command removes the given mask from the SGLINE list if it is present. If a list of entry numbers is given, those entries are deleted. (See the example for LIST below.) The SGLINE LIST command displays the SGLINE list. If a wildcard mask is given, only those entries matching the mask are displayed. If a list of entry numbers is given, only those entries are shown; for example: SGLINE LIST 2-5,7-9 Lists SGLINE entries numbered 2 through 5 and 7 through 9. SGLINE VIEW is a more verbose version of SGLINE LIST, and will show who added an SGLINE, the date it was added, and when it expires, as well as the realname mask and reason. SGLINE CLEAR clears all entries of the SGLINE list.
Syntax: /msg OperServ SQLINE ADD [+expiry] mask reason Syntax: SQLINE ADD [+expiry] mask reason SQLINE DEL {mask | entry-num | list} SQLINE LIST [mask | list] SQLINE VIEW [mask | list] SQLINE CLEAR Allows Services operators to manipulate the SQLINE list. If a user with a nick matching an SQLINE mask attempts to connect, Services will not allow it to pursue his IRC session. If the first character of the mask is #, services will prevent the use of matching channels (on IRCds that support it). SQLINE ADD adds the given mask to the SQLINE list for the given reason (which must be given). expiry is specified as an integer followed by one of d (days), h (hours), or m (minutes). Combinations (such as 1h30m) are not permitted. If a unit specifier is not included, the default is days (so +30 by itself means 30 days). To add an SQLINE which does not expire, use +0. If the mask to be added starts with a +, an expiry time must be given, even if it is the same as the default. The current SQLINE default expiry time can be found with the STATS AKILL command. The SQLINE DEL command removes the given mask from the SQLINE list if it is present. If a list of entry numbers is given, those entries are deleted. (See the example for LIST below.) The SQLINE LIST command displays the SQLINE list. If a wildcard mask is given, only those entries matching the mask are displayed. If a list of entry numbers is given, only those entries are shown; for example: SQLINE LIST 2-5,7-9 Lists SQLINE entries numbered 2 through 5 and 7 through 9. SQLINE VIEW is a more verbose version of SQLINE LIST, and will show who added an SQLINE, the date it was added, and when it expires, as well as the mask and reason. SQLINE CLEAR clears all entries of the SQLINE list.
Syntax: /msg OperServ SZLINE ADD [+expiry] mask reason Syntax: SZLINE ADD [+expiry] mask reason SZLINE DEL {mask | entry-num | list} SZLINE LIST [mask | list] SZLINE VIEW [mask | list] SZLINE CLEAR Allows Services operators to manipulate the SZLINE list. If a user with an IP matching an SZLINE mask attempts to connect, Services will not allow it to pursue his IRC session (and this, whether the IP has a PTR RR or not). SZLINE ADD adds the given IP mask to the SZLINE list for the given reason (which must be given). expiry is specified as an integer followed by one of d (days), h (hours), or m (minutes). Combinations (such as 1h30m) are not permitted. If a unit specifier is not included, the default is days (so +30 by itself means 30 days). To add an SZLINE which does not expire, use +0. If the realname mask to be added starts with a +, an expiry time must be given, even if it is the same as the default. The current SZLINE default expiry time can be found with the STATS AKILL command. The SZLINE DEL command removes the given mask from the SZLINE list if it is present. If a list of entry numbers is given, those entries are deleted. (See the example for LIST below.) The SZLINE LIST command displays the SZLINE list. If a wildcard mask is given, only those entries matching the mask are displayed.

Syntax: /msg OperServ SET option setting Syntax: SET option setting Sets various global Services options. Option names currently defined are: READONLY Set read-only or read-write mode LOGCHAN Report log messages to a channel DEBUG Activate or deactivate debug mode NOEXPIRE Activate or deactivate no expire mode SUPERADMIN Activate or deactivate super-admin mode SQL Activate or deactivate sql mode IGNORE Activate or deactivate ignore mode LIST List the options
Syntax: /msg OperServ SET READONLY {ON | OFF} Syntax: SET READONLY {ON | OFF} Sets read-only mode on or off. In read-only mode, normal users will not be allowed to modify any Services data, including channel and nickname access lists, etc. IRCops with sufficient Services privileges will be able to modify Services' AKILL list and drop or forbid nicknames and channels, but any such changes will not be saved unless read-only mode is deactivated before Services is terminated or restarted. This option is equivalent to the command-line option -readonly.
Syntax: /msg OperServ SET LOGCHAN {ON | OFF} Syntax: SET LOGCHAN {ON | OFF} With this setting on, Services will send its logs to a specified channel as well as the log file. LogChannel must also be defined in the Services configuration file for this setting to be of any use. This option is equivalent to the command-line option -logchan. Note: This can have strong security implications if your log channel is not properly secured.
Syntax: /msg OperServ SET DEBUG {ON | OFF | num} Syntax: SET DEBUG {ON | OFF | num} Sets debug mode on or off. In debug mode, all data sent to and from Services as well as a number of other debugging messages are written to the log file. If num is given, debug mode is activated, with the debugging level set to num. This option is equivalent to the command-line option -debug.
Syntax: /msg OperServ SET LIST Syntax: SET LIST Display the various OperServ settings
Syntax: /msg OperServ SET NOEXPIRE {ON | OFF} Syntax: SET NOEXPIRE {ON | OFF} Sets no expire mode on or off. In no expire mode, nicks, channels, akills and exceptions won't expire until the option is unset. This option is equivalent to the command-line option -noexpire.

Syntax: /msg OperServ SET SUPERADMIN {ON | OFF} Syntax: SET SUPERADMIN {ON | OFF} Setting this will grant you extra privileges such as the ability to be "founder" on all channel's etc... This option is not persistent, and should only be used when needed, and set back to OFF when no longer needed.
Syntax: /msg OperServ NOOP SET server Syntax: NOOP SET server NOOP REVOKE server NOOP SET remove all O:lines of the given server and kill all IRCops currently on it to prevent them from rehashing the server (because this would just cancel the effect). NOOP REVOKE makes all removed O:lines available again on the given server. Note: The server is not checked at all by the Services.
Syntax: /msg OperServ JUPE server [reason] Syntax: JUPE server [reason] Tells Services to jupiter a server -- that is, to create a fake "server" connected to Services which prevents the real server of that name from connecting. The jupe may be removed using a standard SQUIT. If a reason is given, it is placed in the server information field; otherwise, the server information field will contain the text "Juped by ", showing the nickname of the person who jupitered the server.
Syntax: /msg OperServ RAW text Syntax: RAW text Sends a string of text directly to the server to which Services is connected. This command has a very limited range of uses, and can wreak havoc on a network if used improperly. DO NOT USE THIS COMMAND unless you are absolutely certain you know what you are doing!
Syntax: /msg OperServ UPDATE Syntax: UPDATE Causes Services to update all database files as soon as you send the command.
Syntax: /msg OperServ RELOAD Syntax: RELOAD Causes Services to reload the configuration file. Note that some directives still need the restart of the Services to take effect (such as Services' nicknames, activation of the session limitation, etc.)
Syntax: /msg OperServ QUIT Syntax: QUIT Causes Services to do an immediate shutdown; databases are not saved. This command should not be used unless damage to the in-memory copies of the databases is feared and they should not be saved. For normal shutdowns, use the SHUTDOWN command.
Syntax: /msg OperServ SHUTDOWN Syntax: SHUTDOWN Causes Services to save all databases and then shut down.
Syntax: /msg OperServ RESTART Syntax: RESTART Causes Services to save all databases and then restart (i.e. exit and immediately re-run the executable).
Syntax: /msg OperServ CHANLIST [{pattern | nick} [SECRET]] Syntax: CHANLIST [{pattern | nick} [SECRET]] Lists all channels currently in use on the IRC network, whether they are registered or not. If pattern is given, lists only channels that match it. If a nickname is given, lists only the channels the user using it is on. If SECRET is specified, lists only channels matching pattern that have the +s or +p mode.
Syntax: /msg OperServ USERLIST [{pattern | channel} [INVISIBLE]] Syntax: USERLIST [{pattern | channel} [INVISIBLE]] Lists all users currently online on the IRC network, whether their nick is registered or not. If pattern is given, lists only users that match it (it must be in the format nick!user@host). If channel is given, lists only users that are on the given channel. If INVISIBLE is specified, only users with the +i flag will be listed.
Syntax: /msg OperServ EXCEPTION ADD [+expiry] mask limit reason Syntax: EXCEPTION ADD [+expiry] mask limit reason EXCEPTION DEL {mask | list} EXCEPTION MOVE num position EXCEPTION LIST [mask | list] EXCEPTION VIEW [mask | list] Allows Services admins to manipulate the list of hosts that have specific session limits - allowing certain machines, such as shell servers, to carry more than the default number of clients at a time. Once a host reaches it's session limit, all clients attempting to connect from that host will be killed. Before the user is killed, they are notified, via a /NOTICE from OperServ, of a source of help regarding session limiting. The content of this notice is a config setting. EXCEPTION ADD adds the given host mask to the exception list. Note that nick!user@host and user@host masks are invalid! Only real host masks, such as box.host.dom and *.host.dom, are allowed because sessions limiting does not take nick or user names into account. limit must be a number greater than or equal to zero. This determines how many sessions this host may carry at a time. A value of zero means the host has an unlimited session limit. See the AKILL help for details about the format of the optional expiry parameter. EXCEPTION DEL removes the given mask from the exception list. EXCEPTION MOVE moves exception num to position. The exceptions inbetween will be shifted up or down to fill the gap. EXCEPTION LIST and EXCEPTION VIEW show all current exceptions; if the optional mask is given, the list is limited to those exceptions matching the mask. The difference is that EXCEPTION VIEW is more verbose, displaying the name of the person who added the exception, it's session limit, reason, host mask and the expiry date and time. Note that a connecting client will "use" the first exception their host matches. Large exception lists and widely matching exception masks are likely to degrade services' performance.
Syntax: /msg OperServ SESSION LIST threshold Syntax: SESSION LIST threshold SESSION VIEW host Allows Services admins to view the session list. SESSION LIST lists hosts with at least threshold sessions. The threshold must be a number greater than 1. This is to prevent accidental listing of the large number of single session hosts. SESSION VIEW displays detailed information about a specific host - including the current session count and session limit. The host value may not include wildcards. See the EXCEPTION help for more information about session limiting and how to set session limits specific to certain hosts and groups thereof.
Syntax: /msg OperServ CHANKILL [+expiry] channel reason Syntax: CHANKILL [+expiry] channel reason Puts an AKILL for every nick on the specified channel. It uses the entire and complete real ident@host for every nick, then enforces the AKILL.
Syntax: /msg OperServ DEFCON [1|2|3|4|5] Syntax: DEFCON [1|2|3|4|5] The defcon system can be used to implement a pre-defined set of restrictions to services useful during an attempted attack on the network.
* AKILL any new clients connecting
* Force Chan Modes (OperServ) to be set on all channels
* No MLOCK changes

Notice: All commands sent to OperServ are logged!
Syntax: /msg OperServ MODINFO FileName Syntax: MODINFO FileName This command lists information about the specified loaded module
Syntax: /msg OperServ MODLIST [Core|3rd|protocol|encryption|supported|qatested] Syntax: MODLIST [Core|3rd|protocol|encryption|supported|qatested] Lists all currently loaded modules.

Syntax: /msg OperServ SVSNICK nick newnick Syntax: SVSNICK nick newnick Forcefully changes a user's nickname from nick to newnick. Limited to Super Admins.
ChanServ allows you to register and control various aspects of channels. ChanServ can often prevent malicious users from "taking over" channels by limiting who is allowed channel operator privileges. Available commands are listed below; to use them, type /msg ChanServ command. For more information on a specific command, type /msg ChanServ HELP command.
Note that any channel which is not used for %d days (i.e. which no user on the channel's access list enters for that period of time) will be automatically dropped.
Syntax: /msg ChanServ REGISTER channel password description Syntax: REGISTER channel password description Registers a channel in the ChanServ database. In order to use this command, you must first be a channel operator on the channel you're trying to register. The password is used with the IDENTIFY command to allow others to make changes to the channel settings at a later time. The last parameter, which must be included, is a general description of the channel's purpose. When you register a channel, you are recorded as the "founder" of the channel. The channel founder is allowed to change all of the channel settings for the channel; ChanServ will also automatically give the founder channel-operator privileges when s/he enters the channel. See the ACCESS command (/msg ChanServ HELP ACCESS) for information on giving a subset of these privileges to other channel users. NOTICE: In order to register a channel, you must have first registered your nickname. If you haven't, /msg ChanServ HELP for information on how to do so.
Syntax: /msg ChanServ IDENTIFY channel password Syntax: IDENTIFY channel password Authenticates you to ChanServ as the founder of the given channel. Many commands require you to use this command before using them. The password should be the same one you sent with the REGISTER command.
Syntax: /msg ChanServ LOGOUT channel nickname Syntax: LOGOUT channel nickname This command will log the selected nickname out meaning they would have to reidentify themselves to regain their access. If you are the founder of the channel, you can log out anybody, else you can only log out yourself.
Syntax: /msg ChanServ DROP channel Syntax: DROP channel Unregisters the named channel. Can only be used by channel founder, who must use the IDENTIFY command first.
Syntax: /msg ChanServ SET channel option parameters Syntax: SET channel option parameters Allows the channel founder to set various channel options and other information. Available options: FOUNDER Set the founder of a channel SUCCESSOR Set the successor for a channel PASSWORD Set the founder password DESC Set the channel description URL Associate a URL with the channel EMAIL Associate an E-mail address with the channel ENTRYMSG Set a message to be sent to users when they enter the channel BANTYPE Set how Services make bans on the channel MLOCK Lock channel modes on or off KEEPTOPIC Retain topic when channel is not in use OPNOTICE Send a notice when OP/DEOP commands are used PEACE Regulate the use of critical commands PRIVATE Hide channel from LIST command RESTRICTED Restrict access to the channel SECURE Activate ChanServ security features SECUREOPS Stricter control of chanop status SECUREFOUNDER Stricter control of channel founder status SIGNKICK Sign kicks that are done with KICK command TOPICLOCK Topic can only be changed with TOPIC XOP Toggle the user privilege system Type /msg ChanServ HELP SET option for more information on a particular option.
Syntax: /msg ChanServ SET channel FOUNDER nick Syntax: SET channel FOUNDER nick Changes the founder of a channel. The new nickname must be a registered one.
Syntax: /msg ChanServ SET channel SUCCESSOR nick Syntax: SET channel SUCCESSOR nick Changes the successor of a channel. If the founder's nickname expires or is dropped while the channel is still registered, the successor will become the new founder of the channel. However, if the successor already has too many channels registered (%d), the channel will be dropped instead, just as if no successor had been set. The new nickname must be a registered one.
Syntax: /msg ChanServ SET channel PASSWORD password Syntax: SET channel PASSWORD password Sets the password used to identify as the founder of the channel.
Syntax: /msg ChanServ SET channel DESC description Syntax: SET channel DESC description Sets the description for the channel, which shows up with the LIST and INFO commands.
Syntax: /msg ChanServ SET channel URL [url] Syntax: SET channel URL [url] Associates the given URL with the channel. This URL will be displayed whenever someone requests information on the channel with the INFO command. If no parameter is given, deletes any current URL for the channel.
Syntax: /msg ChanServ SET channel EMAIL [address] Syntax: SET channel EMAIL [address] Associates the given E-mail address with the channel. This address will be displayed whenever someone requests information on the channel with the INFO command. If no parameter is given, deletes any current E-mail address for the channel.
Syntax: /msg ChanServ SET channel ENTRYMSG [message] Syntax: SET channel ENTRYMSG [message] Sets the message which will be sent via /notice to users when they enter the channel. If no parameter is given, causes no message to be sent upon entering the channel.
Syntax: /msg ChanServ SET channel BANTYPE bantype Syntax: SET channel BANTYPE bantype Sets the ban type that will be used by services whenever they need to ban someone from your channel. bantype is a number between 0 and 3 that means: 0: ban in the form *!user@host 1: ban in the form *!*user@host 2: ban in the form *!*@host 3: ban in the form *!*user@*.domain
Syntax: /msg ChanServ SET channel KEEPTOPIC {ON | OFF} Syntax: SET channel KEEPTOPIC {ON | OFF} Enables or disables the topic retention option for a channel. When topic retention is set, the topic for the channel will be remembered by ChanServ even after the last user leaves the channel, and will be restored the next time the channel is created.
Syntax: /msg ChanServ SET channel TOPICLOCK {ON | OFF} Syntax: SET channel TOPICLOCK {ON | OFF} Enables or disables the topic lock option for a channel. When topic lock is set, ChanServ will not allow the channel topic to be changed except via the TOPIC command.
Syntax: /msg ChanServ SET channel MLOCK modes Syntax: SET channel MLOCK modes Sets the mode-lock parameter for the channel. ChanServ allows you to define certain channel modes to be always on, off or free to be either on or off. The modes parameter is constructed exactly the same way as a /MODE command; that is, modes followed by a + are locked on, and modes followed by a - are locked off. Note, however, that unlike the /MODE command, each use of SET MLOCK will remove all modes previously locked before setting the new! Warning: If you set a mode-locked key, as in the second example below, you should also set the RESTRICTED option for the channel (see HELP SET RESTRICTED), or anyone entering the channel when it is empty will be able to see the key! Examples: SET #channel MLOCK +nt-iklps Forces modes n and t on, and modes i, k, l, p, and s off. Mode m is left free to be either on or off. SET #channel MLOCK +knst-ilmp my-key Forces modes k, n, s, and t on, and modes i, l, m, and p off. Also forces the channel key to be "my-key". SET #channel MLOCK + Removes the mode lock; all channel modes are free to be either on or off.
Syntax: /msg ChanServ SET channel PEACE {ON | OFF} Syntax: SET channel PEACE {ON | OFF} Enables or disables the peace option for a channel. When peace is set, a user won't be able to kick, ban or remove a channel status of a user that has a level superior or equal to his via ChanServ commands.
Syntax: /msg ChanServ SET channel PRIVATE {ON | OFF} Syntax: SET channel PRIVATE {ON | OFF} Enables or disables the private option for a channel. When private is set, a /msg ChanServ LIST will not include the channel in any lists.
Syntax: /msg ChanServ SET channel RESTRICTED {ON | OFF} Syntax: SET channel RESTRICTED {ON | OFF} Enables or disables the restricted access option for a channel. When restricted access is set, users not on the access list will instead be kicked and banned from the channel.
Syntax: /msg ChanServ SET channel SECURE {ON | OFF} Syntax: SET channel SECURE {ON | OFF} Enables or disables ChanServ's security features for a channel. When SECURE is set, only users who have registered their nicknames with ChanServ and IDENTIFY'd with their password will be given access to the channel as controlled by the access list.
Syntax: /msg ChanServ SET channel SECUREOPS {ON | OFF} Syntax: SET channel SECUREOPS {ON | OFF} Enables or disables the secure ops option for a channel. When secure ops is set, users who are not on the userlist will not be allowed chanop status.
Syntax: /msg ChanServ SET channel SECUREFOUNDER {ON | OFF} Syntax: SET channel SECUREFOUNDER {ON | OFF} Enables or disables the secure founder option for a channel. When secure founder is set, only the real founder will be able to drop the channel, change its password, its founder and its successor, and not those who are IDENTIFY'd with ChanServ.
Syntax: /msg ChanServ SET channel SIGNKICK {ON | LEVEL | OFF} Syntax: SET channel SIGNKICK {ON | LEVEL | OFF} Enables or disables signed kicks for a channel. When SIGNKICK is set, kicks issued with ChanServ KICK command will have the nick that used the command in their reason. If you use LEVEL, those who have a level that is superior or equal to the SIGNKICK level on the channel won't have their kicks signed. See /msg ChanServ HELP LEVELS for more information.
Syntax: /msg ChanServ SET channel XOP {ON | OFF} Syntax: SET channel XOP {ON | OFF} Enables or disables the xOP lists system for a channel. When XOP is set, you have to use the AOP/SOP/VOP commands in order to give channel privileges to users, else you have to use the ACCESS command. Technical Note: when you switch from access list to xOP lists system, your level definitions and user levels will be changed, so you won't find the same values if you switch back to access system! You should also check that your users are in the good xOP list after the switch from access to xOP lists, because the guess is not always perfect... in fact, it is not recommended to use the xOP lists if you changed level definitions with the LEVELS command. Switching from xOP lists system to access list system causes no problem though.
Syntax: /msg ChanServ SET channel OPNOTICE {ON | OFF} Syntax: SET channel OPNOTICE {ON | OFF} Enables or disables the op-notice option for a channel. When op-notice is set, ChanServ will send a notice to the channel whenever the OP or DEOP commands are used for a user in the channel.
Syntax: /msg ChanServ AOP channel ADD nick Syntax: AOP channel ADD nick AOP channel DEL {nick | entry-num | list} AOP channel LIST [mask | list] AOP channel CLEAR Maintains the AOP (AutoOP) list for a channel. The AOP list gives users the right to be auto-opped on your channel, to unban or invite themselves if needed, to have their greet message showed on join, and so on. The AOP ADD command adds the given nickname to the AOP list. The AOP DEL command removes the given nick from the AOP list. If a list of entry numbers is given, those entries are deleted. (See the example for LIST below.) The AOP LIST command displays the AOP list. If a wildcard mask is given, only those entries matching the mask are displayed. If a list of entry numbers is given, only those entries are shown; for example: AOP #channel LIST 2-5,7-9 Lists AOP entries numbered 2 through 5 and 7 through 9. The AOP CLEAR command clears all entries of the AOP list. The AOP ADD and AOP DEL commands are limited to SOPs or above, while the AOP CLEAR command can only be used by the channel founder. However, any user on the AOP list may use the AOP LIST command. This command may have been disabled for your channel, and in that case you need to use the access list. See /msg ChanServ HELP ACCESS for information about the access list, and /msg ChanServ HELP SET XOP to know how to toggle between the access list and xOP list systems.
Syntax: /msg ChanServ HOP channel ADD nick Syntax: HOP channel ADD nick HOP channel DEL {nick | entry-num | list} HOP channel LIST [mask | list] HOP channel CLEAR Maintains the HOP (HalfOP) list for a channel. The HOP list gives users the right to be auto-halfopped on your channel. The HOP ADD command adds the given nickname to the HOP list. The HOP DEL command removes the given nick from the HOP list. If a list of entry numbers is given, those entries are deleted. (See the example for LIST below.) The HOP LIST command displays the HOP list. If a wildcard mask is given, only those entries matching the mask are displayed. If a list of entry numbers is given, only those entries are shown; for example: HOP #channel LIST 2-5,7-9 Lists HOP entries numbered 2 through 5 and 7 through 9. The HOP CLEAR command clears all entries of the HOP list. The HOP ADD, HOP DEL and HOP LIST commands are limited to AOPs or above, while the HOP CLEAR command can only be used by the channel founder. This command may have been disabled for your channel, and in that case you need to use the access list. See /msg ChanServ HELP ACCESS for information about the access list, and /msg ChanServ HELP SET XOP to know how to toggle between the access list and xOP list systems.
Syntax: /msg ChanServ SOP channel ADD nick Syntax: SOP channel ADD nick SOP channel DEL {nick | entry-num | list} SOP channel LIST [mask | list] SOP channel CLEAR Maintains the SOP (SuperOP) list for a channel. The SOP list gives users all rights given by the AOP list, and adds those needed to use the AutoKick and the BadWords lists, to send and read channel memos, and so on. The SOP ADD command adds the given nickname to the SOP list. The SOP DEL command removes the given nick from the SOP list. If a list of entry numbers is given, those entries are deleted. (See the example for LIST below.) The SOP LIST command displays the SOP list. If a wildcard mask is given, only those entries matching the mask are displayed. If a list of entry numbers is given, only those entries are shown; for example: SOP #channel LIST 2-5,7-9 Lists AOP entries numbered 2 through 5 and 7 through 9. The SOP CLEAR command clears all entries of the SOP list. The SOP ADD, SOP DEL and SOP CLEAR commands are limited to the channel founder. However, any user on the AOP list may use the SOP LIST command. This command may have been disabled for your channel, and in that case you need to use the access list. See /msg ChanServ HELP ACCESS for information about the access list, and /msg ChanServ HELP SET XOP to know how to toggle between the access list and xOP list systems.
Syntax: /msg ChanServ VOP channel ADD nick Syntax: VOP channel ADD nick VOP channel DEL {nick | entry-num | list} VOP channel LIST [mask | list] VOP channel CLEAR Maintains the VOP (VOicePeople) list for a channel. The VOP list allows users to be auto-voiced and to voice themselves if they aren't. The VOP ADD command adds the given nickname to the VOP list. The VOP DEL command removes the given nick from the VOP list. If a list of entry numbers is given, those entries are deleted. (See the example for LIST below.) The VOP LIST command displays the VOP list. If a wildcard mask is given, only those entries matching the mask are displayed. If a list of entry numbers is given, only those entries are shown; for example: VOP #channel LIST 2-5,7-9 Lists VOP entries numbered 2 through 5 and 7 through 9. The VOP CLEAR command clears all entries of the VOP list. The VOP ADD, VOP DEL and VOP LIST commands are limited to AOPs or above, while the VOP CLEAR command can only be used by the channel founder. This command may have been disabled for your channel, and in that case you need to use the access list. See /msg ChanServ HELP ACCESS for information about the access list, and /msg ChanServ HELP SET XOP to know how to toggle between the access list and xOP list systems.
Syntax: /msg ChanServ ACCESS channel ADD nick level Syntax: ACCESS channel ADD nick level ACCESS channel DEL {nick | entry-num | list} ACCESS channel LIST [mask | list] ACCESS channel CLEAR Maintains the access list for a channel. The access list specifies which users are allowed chanop status or access to ChanServ commands on the channel. Different user levels allow for access to different subsets of privileges; /msg ChanServ HELP ACCESS LEVELS for more specific information. Any nick not on the access list has a user level of 0. The ACCESS ADD command adds the given nickname to the access list with the given user level; if the nick is already present on the list, its access level is changed to the level specified in the command. The level specified must be less than that of the user giving the command, and if the nick is already on the access list, the current access level of that nick must be less than the access level of the user giving the command. The ACCESS DEL command removes the given nick from the access list. If a list of entry numbers is given, those entries are deleted. (See the example for LIST below.) The ACCESS LIST command displays the access list. If a wildcard mask is given, only those entries matching the mask are displayed. If a list of entry numbers is given, only those entries are shown; for example: ACCESS #channel LIST 2-5,7-9 Lists access entries numbered 2 through 5 and 7 through 9. The ACCESS CLEAR command clears all entries of the access list.
User access levels By default, the following access levels are defined: Founder Full access to ChanServ functions; automatic opping upon entering channel. Note that only one person may have founder status (it cannot be given using the ACCESS command). 10 Access to AKICK command; automatic opping. 5 Automatic opping. 3 Automatic voicing. 0 No special privileges; can be opped by other ops (unless secure-ops is set). <0 May not be opped. These levels may be changed, or new ones added, using the LEVELS command; type /msg ChanServ HELP LEVELS for information.
Syntax: /msg ChanServ AKICK channel ADD {nick | mask} [reason] Syntax: AKICK channel ADD {nick | mask} [reason] AKICK channel STICK mask AKICK channel UNSTICK mask AKICK channel DEL {nick | mask | entry-num | list} AKICK channel LIST [mask | entry-num | list] AKICK channel VIEW [mask | entry-num | list] AKICK channel ENFORCE AKICK channel CLEAR Maintains the AutoKick list for a channel. If a user on the AutoKick list attempts to join the channel, ChanServ will ban that user from the channel, then kick the user. The AKICK ADD command adds the given nick or usermask to the AutoKick list. If a reason is given with the command, that reason will be used when the user is kicked; if not, the default reason is "You have been banned from the channel". When akicking a registered nick the nickserv account will be added to the akick list instead of the mask. All users within that nickgroup will then be akicked. The AKICK STICK command permanently bans the given mask on the channel. If someone tries to remove the ban, ChanServ will automatically set it again. You can't use it for registered nicks. The AKICK UNSTICK command cancels the effect of the AKICK STICK command, so you'll be able to unset the ban again on the channel. The AKICK DEL command removes the given nick or mask from the AutoKick list. It does not, however, remove any bans placed by an AutoKick; those must be removed manually. The AKICK LIST command displays the AutoKick list, or optionally only those AutoKick entries which match the given mask. The AKICK VIEW command is a more verbose version of AKICK LIST command. The AKICK ENFORCE command causes ChanServ to enforce the current AKICK list by removing those users who match an AKICK mask. The AKICK CLEAR command clears all entries of the akick list.
Syntax: /msg ChanServ LEVELS channel SET type level Syntax: LEVELS channel SET type level LEVELS channel {DIS | DISABLE} type LEVELS channel LIST LEVELS channel RESET The LEVELS command allows fine control over the meaning of the numeric access levels used for channels. With this command, you can define the access level required for most of ChanServ's functions. (The SET FOUNDER and SET PASSWORD commands, as well as this command, are always restricted to the channel founder.) LEVELS SET allows the access level for a function or group of functions to be changed. LEVELS DISABLE (or DIS for short) disables an automatic feature or disallows access to a function by anyone other than the channel founder. LEVELS LIST shows the current levels for each function or group of functions. LEVELS RESET resets the levels to the default levels of a newly-created channel (see HELP ACCESS LEVELS). For a list of the features and functions whose levels can be set, see HELP LEVELS DESC.
Syntax: /msg ChanServ INFO channel [ALL] Syntax: INFO channel [ALL] Lists information about the named registered channel, including its founder, time of registration, last time used, description, and mode lock, if any. If ALL is specified, the entry message and successor will also be displayed. By default, the ALL option is limited to those with founder access on the channel.
Syntax: /msg ChanServ LIST pattern Syntax: LIST pattern Lists all registered channels matching the given pattern. (Channels with the PRIVATE option set are not listed.) Note that a preceding '#' specifies a range, channel names are to be written without '#'.

NickServ allows you to "register" a nickname and prevent others from using it. The following commands allow for registration and maintenance of nicknames; to use them, type /msg NickServ command. For more information on a specific command, type /msg NickServ HELP command.
Syntax: /msg NickServ REGISTER password [email] Syntax: REGISTER password [email] Registers your nickname in the NickServ database. Once your nick is registered, you can use the SET and ACCESS commands to configure your nick's settings as you like them. Make sure you remember the password you use when registering - you'll need it to make changes to your nick later. (Note that case matters! ANOPE, Anope, and anope are all different passwords!) Guidelines on choosing passwords: Passwords should not be easily guessable. For example, using your real name as a password is a bad idea. Using your nickname as a password is a much worse idea ;) and, in fact, NickServ will not allow it. Also, short passwords are vulnerable to trial-and-error searches, so you should choose a password at least 5 characters long. Finally, the space character cannot be used in passwords. The parameter email is optional and will set the email for your nick immediately. However, it may be required on certain networks. Your privacy is respected; this e-mail won't be given to any third-party person. This command also creates a new group for your nickname, that will allow you to register other nicks later sharing the same configuration, the same set of memos and the same channel privileges. For more information on this feature, type /msg NickServ HELP GROUP.
Syntax: /msg NickServ GROUP target password Syntax: GROUP target password This command makes your nickname join the target nickname's group. password is the password of the target nickname. Joining a group will allow you to share your configuration, memos, and channel privileges with all the nicknames in the group, and much more! A group exists as long as it is useful. This means that even if a nick of the group is dropped, you won't lose the shared things described above, as long as there is at least one nick remaining in the group. You can use this command even if you have not registered your nick yet. If your nick is already registered, you'll need to identify yourself before using this command. Type /msg NickServ HELP IDENTIFY for more information. This last may be not possible on your IRC network. It is recommended to use this command with a non-registered nick because it will be registered automatically when using this command. You may use it with a registered nick (to change your group) only if your network administrators allowed it. You can only be in one group at a time. Group merging is not possible. Note: all the nicknames of a group have the same password.
Syntax: /msg NickServ IDENTIFY password Syntax: IDENTIFY password Tells NickServ that you are really the owner of this nick. Many commands require you to authenticate yourself with this command before you use them. The password should be the same one you sent with the REGISTER command.
Syntax: /msg NickServ LOGOUT Syntax: LOGOUT This reverses the effect of the IDENTIFY command, i.e. make you not recognized as the real owner of the nick anymore. Note, however, that you won't be asked to reidentify yourself.
Syntax: /msg NickServ DROP [nickname] Syntax: DROP [nickname] Drops your nickname from the NickServ database. A nick that has been dropped is free for anyone to re-register. You may drop a nick within your group by passing it as the nick parameter. In order to use this command, you must first identify with your password (/msg NickServ HELP IDENTIFY for more information).
Syntax: /msg NickServ ACCESS ADD mask Syntax: ACCESS ADD mask ACCESS DEL mask ACCESS LIST Modifies or displays the access list for your nick. This is the list of addresses which will be automatically recognized by NickServ as allowed to use the nick. If you want to use the nick from a different address, you need to send an IDENTIFY command to make NickServ recognize you. Examples: ACCESS ADD anyone@*.bepeg.com Allows access to user anyone from any machine in the bepeg.com domain. ACCESS DEL anyone@*.bepeg.com Reverses the previous command. ACCESS LIST Displays the current access list.

When you give this command, NickServ will bring a fake user online with the same nickname as the user you're trying to recover your nick from. This causes the IRC servers to disconnect the other user. This fake user will remain online for NickServ to ensure that the other user does not immediately reconnect; after that time, you can reclaim your nick.

In order to use the GHOST command for a nick, your current address as shown in /WHOIS must be on that nick's access list, you must be identified and in the group of that nick, or you must supply the correct password for the nickname.
