I am new to all of this i am int eh process of creating a test ubuntu server that hosts an irc server with services.
any help would be great!

You must set your servicesroot setting in your services.conf first, and make sure it is uncommented. (doesn't have a # at the beginning of the line)
-
exactly what it says.. in services.conf you need to set services root, a super user. its in the file as ServicesRoot "MyNick"
You can have more then one (space separated). Reload, and register the root nick with Nickserv.

IRCDModule "unreal32"
RemoteServer 10.30.108.38 6667 "services"
ServerName "services.10.30.108.38"
ServicesRoot "mbrown"
that is what i have isnt that right?
i have not registered anything with nickserv because i have not tried it yet bc i was following the instructions that i had.

Ok, here's the real question. Are you using Anope 1.8.0 or Anope 1.9.0? The error message you posted is from 1.9.0, but the lines you pasted just now are from a 1.8.0 configuration file. If you are trying to move from 1.8.0 to 1.9.0 (which I wouldn't recommend for a production network), you need to do the entire configuration from scratch, the format is not the same.

i downloaded the 1.9 release. i was not sure about which version i did. like i said i just followed the isntructions from this website:

im using unreal irc

That article is very out of date.
As CBX said, if you intend on using 1.9 you will need to use a new config.
-
new configuration to just set up services correct? where is an updated article?
-
i doubt there is one for 1.9, you should use the included docs
