To do this with Services would require writing a module that sent CTCP VERSION (or some other way to check whether the client is your applet or another program) and killed users using a different client, and again this would still be susceptible to users forging the CTCP VERSION reply. In general, there's no foolproof way to do what you're asking, but either of the above methods will probably block 99.9% of users, which is probably good enough. --Andrew Church achurch@achurch.org http://achurch.org/ ------------------------------------------------------------------ To unsubscribe or change your subscription options, visit:</PRE></BLOCKQUOTE><A href="http://www.ircservices.za.net/mailman/listinfo/ircservices">http://www.ircservices.za.net/mailman/listinfo/ircservices</A> <TABLE cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width="100%"> <TBODY> <TR> <TD><PRE>-- Juan Antonio Sánchez Robles <jasanchez@i-network.com> In a world without walls who needs Windows?
