[IRCServices] NickName Registrations..

[Term]

nope, in this case it's services. Services allows you to link illegal nicks
to a valid nick.

I'm not sure how far logging goes, but perhaps you can see who registered
the valid nick and linked the illegal ones to it.

my 2 eurocents,
[Term]

/ns register thetest term@******
-NickServ- Nickname [Term-] has been registered to you.
-NickServ- An authorization code for your nickname has been sent to
term@******.
-NickServ- When you receive this message, type /msg NickServ AUTH code
(replace code with the authorization code in the message) to complete your
nickname registration.
-NickServ- Your password is thetest -- remember this for later use.
/msg NickServ AUTH 860270749
-NickServ- Authorization succeeded; your nickname registration is now
complete.
/ns identify thetest
-NickServ- Password accepted -- you are now recognized.
/ns link 6hithere
-NickServ- Nick 6hithere has been linked to your nick.

Normally,

the irc protocol does not permit nicknames which begin with a
digit. Your server is therefore broken, when people can take
nicknames which begin with a number, and can make them be
registered.

For more information, see :
http://www.irchelp.org/irchelp/rfc/chapter2.html#c2_3_1

the "NICK" item is defined as

<letter> { <letter> | <number> | <special> }

You ought to ask your ircd coders why they broke RFC1459.

Regards;
yusuf
