no

So now you know what my problem was. :-)

yes

I changed unrealircd.conf accordingly, now everything is fine, i can set
admins, create channels, tweak access modes, pretty much everything
seems to be fine (at least on surface).

The stumbling block for me was that some kind of "elevated
privileges" (oper) are also required on Unreal, not just on ircservices.
I was thinking that ircservices alone takes care of all that (i thought
ircservices is simply an extension to the IRC server per se, while in
truth they are two different layers with large parts of the
functionality separated).
I think i understand it now - at least i am able to perform the basic
work i was looking to accomplish.

Thank you!
