Hey there, Thanks for the; PredefChannelsOnly = yes advice. I tried putting it in the global and then the channel section, and it is not doing the job I put it in my /usr/local/etc/ngircd.conf and then stopped and started the ngirdc is there a trick I am missing? Cheers! RichGriese(a)gmail.com

nevermind....

Mivermind folks. I realized that my client was using a different /open name password than I had adjusted in the .conf what a moron I am. On the good news front. I have my server limited to my one channel, and don't have to worry about idiots using it. oh... now that I say that.... from a utilization of resources standpoint. How to you prevent people from joining the SERVER and not a channel. I mean, and this is a bit ridiculas, but two people could join the server, and not the one allowed channel, but could use the / msg command to talk to each other. I run this server on a mac mini, and am looking for every way to eliminate any user other than the ones that are using the server/channel for it's purpose. Any thoughts. Cheers!

I made progress. I upgraded to release 16 and now can limit channels to the one I want. problem though.... I am not longer getting ops. Can you tell me what commands need to go in the .conf file, AND what commands I execute to identify as a operator, and then op myself in my channel. Cheers! RichGriese(a)gmail.com

question about limiting channels
by Rich Griese 13 Aug '10

I have been running the ngircd for a while, now and it works fine. I have been using it as a user support system, and they way I have it confirmed is that I set up a server password, and was using cgi:irc. I could with that web client prevent the /join command from working. So in effect I did not have to worry about any connecting and using any channel than the one I had set up and monitored. The server required a password, the only one that knew the password was the cgi:irc client, and only using that client was forced to my one channel, and could not issue a /join command. I am not having troulbe with cgi:irc on a new server. My question. Can I set ngircd up so that users CANNOT create channels? I want to set up a mibbit widget that wil allow people to join the server, and my one user help channel, but I want to prevent anyone from doing a /join #yaya and creating another channel. I can't find anything in the docs for the .conf file, but found this mailing list and thought I would ask. I had been limiting channel access before by the one web client i allowed to access the system. Now I want to know if I can set the ngircd server itself to limit channels. Cheers!
