[IRCServices] Questions from a newbie

[Wouter de Waal]

Hi all

I've just recently got services to work with a bahamut
(bahamut(pelennor)-1.4(08)) server. I notice that nickserv
performs differently from the one I am used to, on LagNet,
which runs dal4.6.7.DreamForge+LagNet.

On Lagnet, a whois gives

foobar123 is user at domain * abc
foobar123 is a registered nick
foobar123 using mystery.lagnet.org.za Mystery LagNet IRC Server
foobar123 has been idle 9sec, signed on Tue Aug 14 08:49:17
foobar123 End of /WHOIS list.

but on the server I'm playing with,

foobar123 is user at domain * abc
foobar123 using irc.some.domain
foobar123 has identified for this nick
foobar123 has been idle 9sec, signed on Tue Aug 14 08:53:08
foobar123 End of /WHOIS list.

Why the difference, registered vs identified?

Also, shouldn't the server kick me off if I'm using a
registered nick and I don't identify with the correct
password?

Next question, r.e. chanserv. I now have the channels
that I want registered, how do I stop ppl from creating
any other channels? I only want the channels on there
that I created, obviously I want other channels killed
with a nice error message.

Thanks

Wouter
