I seem to be having problems with certain modules in Atheme, which are connected to XOP. Is there anything I need to set in the ngircd.conf to turn on XOP?

As you can see from the output, it Atheme thinks that ngircd doesn't support owner, protect or quiet, which according to the changelog was added to ngircd around 20rc1

Right, ngIRCd supports XOP modes starting with release 20. But most probably the Atheme protocol module is older and not aware of these new modes … Probably pinging the Atheme developers helps? Regards Alex
