Hello guys.
I wanted to ask, if it is possible - How can I rename the IRC Services names

Example:

• NickServ > NS
• ChanServ > CS
• OperServ > OS

... etc

P.S - I am using UnrealIRCd 3.2

[Adam]

If you actually read the example configuration file you'd see:

Code: [Select]

# ...Name <nick> <string>  [REQUIRED except as noted below]
#     Specify the nicknames (first parameter) and "real" names (second
#     parameter) for the Services pseudoclients.  BotServ and DevNull may
#     be disabled by commenting out the appropriate lines below. Disabling
#     BotServ is recommended on large networks.

NickServName    "NickServ"  "Nickname Server"
ChanServName    "ChanServ"  "Channel Server"
MemoServName    "MemoServ"  "Memo Server"
BotServName     "BotServ"   "Bot Server"
HelpServName    "HelpServ"  "Help Server"
OperServName    "OperServ"  "Operator Server"
GlobalName      "Global"    "Global Noticer"
#DevNullName     "DevNull"   "/dev/null -- message sink"
HostServName    "HostServ"  "vHost Server"

I searched over and couldn't find a way and that is why I made a post here.
In which .conf should I look ?

[Jan Milants]

Rather then saying which IRCd you are using, don't you think it d be more useful to mention which Anope you are using?

[Adam]

If you are using 1.9 you should look in the respective confguration file for each *serv and change the value of service:nick.

[Kamen]

Using Anope 1.9**

So in general, I should edit each .CONF file for each chanserv.example.conf / operserv.example.conf .. etc ?

I am missing the mentioned above in the .conf files

[Adam]

It's literally like the first configurable option in each of the example configuration files.

[Kamen]

Okay, lets make a summary (NickServ for example)

service
{
   /*
    * The name of the NickServ client.
    */
   nick = "NickServ"

   /*
    * The username of the NickServ client.
    */
   user = "services"

   /*
    * The hostname of the NickServ client.
    */
   host = "services.host"

   /*
    * The realname of the NickServ client.
    */
   gecos = "Nickname Registration Service"

Editing the first value nick = "NickServ" to [NS] is crashing the Services..

[Adam]

Why do you think it is crashing services? If you change it I think you will have to restart them and then probably /bs bot del the old NickServ.

[Kamen]

1) Opening "nickserv.example.conf"
2) Editinig
    /*
    * The name of the client that should be NickServ.
    */
   client = "NickServ" > to "NS"

3) Saving
4) Restarting the IRC Server and the Services
5) After starting Anope.exe - It Crashes if the value is different from "NickServ"

[Kamen]

The goal I want to achieve is that the Services respond and be seen as [CS] [NS] [OS] [SS] .. etc.
If someone have managed to achieve this - please share a way.

Thanks in advance to everyone 

[Adam]

Insead try

Code: [Select]

define
{
        name = "NickServ"
        value = "NS"
}

instead at the top of the file. I just tested this and it works okay for me. Again, why do you think it's crashing? Does Windows tell you the application has crashed, or is it just not starting?

[Kamen]

Thanks Adam.
It loads now but ChanServ remains ChanServ as name, when join at channel

* ChanServ sets mode: +ao ChanServ ChanServ 

[Adam]

That's because ChanServ is now a normal botserv bot. You should be able to /bs bot del it. If you /msg CS it should reply back with the normal chanserv output.

[Kamen]

Okay, lets make a quick summary

1) Add (below) at the top of chanserv.example.conf
define
{
        name = "ChanServ"
        value = "CS"
}

2) Saving the file and restart the services
3) ChanServ is still shown as [ChanServ], when join a channel

[Kamen]

So in general - There is no way of renaming the Services, so they will be seen in mIRC with changed names

ChanServ = CS
NickServ = NS
OperServ = OS
MemoServ = MS
BotServ = BS

.. etc ?
If someone knows a way - please let me know.
Thanks in advance.

[Kamen]

I have managed to fix this and successfully renamed the services 
You can lock this out 

Thanks a lot for the help Adam !!!
