OperServ commands:
GLOBAL
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.
STATS
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.

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.
MODE

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.
SGLINE
Syntax: /msg OperServ 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.
SQLINE
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.

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.)

SET
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
SET READONLY
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.
SET LOGCHAN
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.
SET DEBUG
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.
SET LIST
Syntax: /msg OperServ SET LIST
Syntax: SET LIST
Display the various OperServ settings
SET NOEXPIRE
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.
SET SQL
Syntax: /msg OperServ SET SQL {ON | OFF}
Syntax: SET SQL {ON | OFF}
Setting this will toggle Anope's usage of SQL, this should
be used to disable and enable SQL should your SQL server go down
while services are running.
SET SUPERADMIN
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.
NOOP
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.
JUPE
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.
RAW
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!
UPDATE
Syntax: /msg OperServ UPDATE
Syntax: UPDATE
Causes Services to update all database files as soon as you
send the command.
RELOAD
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.)
QUIT
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.
SHUTDOWN
Syntax: /msg OperServ SHUTDOWN
Syntax: SHUTDOWN
Causes Services to save all databases and then shut down.
RESTART
Syntax: /msg OperServ RESTART
Syntax: RESTART
Causes Services to save all databases and then restart
(i.e. exit and immediately re-run the executable).
CHANLIST
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.
USERLIST
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.
EXCEPTION
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.
SESSION
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.
CHANKILL
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.
DEFCON
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.
DEFCON AKILL NEW CLIENTS
* AKILL any new clients connecting
DEFCON FORCE CHAN MODES
* Force Chan Modes (OperServ) to be set on all channels
