     Services 4.5.38 has been released, and can be downloaded from:

ftp://ftp.esper.net/ircservices/ircservices-4.5.38.tar.gz
ftp://ftp.esper.net/ircservices/ircservices-4.5.38.diff.gz

ftp.ircservices.za.net and the mirrors should have it shortly.

     This release fixes the problem reported with AUTOVOICE and ENFORCE.
Also, it has been reported and confirmed that failure to install Q:lines on
all of your servers when nick changing (NSForceNickChange) is in use can
allow users to escape Services' notice and use others' nicks without fear
of retaliation via nick kills or the GHOST command.  A workaround is being
worked on for version 5.0; in the meantime, make sure you have Q:lines
installed on all of your servers for "Guest*" (or whatever you use for
guest nicks).

Changes in version 4.5.38
-------------------------
2002/02/07	Fixed bug causing AUTODEOP channel level to be ignored if
		    AUTOVOICE was set less or equal.  Reported by Jollino
