<div>==[[Chat4All]] Goes Wiki==<br />
<br />
Since we are with a steady userbase, we would like to provide some help to our chatters. Of course it's impossible for us ([[IRCops]]) to assist you 24/7 in <nowiki>#</nowiki>[[help]]. That's why the idea for the wiki was born. [http://wikipedia.org MediaWiki] is a nice tool to help us write manuals and [[FAQ]]'s and such more.<br />
<br />
Should you still have any questions after reading this Wiki, please check our [[FAQ|Frequently Asked Questions]] to see if your question gets answered there, or check [http://www.chat4all.net/manual/manual-services_eng.html our manual]. Still can't find what you need? Visit us in the IRC support channel, or open a support ticket at http://support.chat4all.net/<br />
<br />
==Read-only==<br />
As of the 22nd of February 2012 we unfortunately had to make this wiki read-only due to the increasing amount of spam and abuse, and sadly the lack of contributions from actual users.<br />
We still welcome people to contribute to this project though, so if you want to help out, please contact us in #help or #lounge on our IRC network.<br />

<br />
= Translations required=<br />
There are still quite a lot of articles that need to be translated. <br />
If you find an article that is only available at Keyword, for instance ZBot, which isn't available in your language yet (so if for instance there isn't an NL/ZBot article yet), then you can tag the page with <br />
<nowiki>[[Category:Articles Needing Dutch Translation]]</nowiki><br />
and possibly already create a placeholder page with on it:<br />
<nowiki>[[Category:NL]]</nowiki><br />
Please try to keep the main keyword articles in English. <br />
<br />
If the article is about something more generic, and it is translatable, then you could use the translated keyword as article name. For instance FloodProtection -> FloodBescherming. You could also add a fallback REDIRECT page for the NL/FloodProtection page as well, if you think it would be useful.<br />
<br />
Redirect pages can be made by putting the following text on the page you want to redirect:<br />
<nowiki>#REDIRECT [[ArticleYouWantToRedirectTo]]</nowiki><br />
So in our example. the article redirect NL/FloodProtection would contain:<br />
<nowiki>#REDIRECT [[FloodBescherming]]</nowiki><br />
<br />

On this page you can find answers to questions you may have. If the answer to your question is not listed here, then please open a support ticket on our [http://support.chat4all.net support portal] or ask it in our support channel.<br />
<br />
=Generic Questions=<br />
<br />
== Is having a chatroom at Chat4All free? ==<br />
Yes, having a chatroom at the Chat4All IRC Network is absolutely free!<br />
You don't even have to place a banner or put up with advertising. <br />
However, having a banner or a short line on your website, indicating that you have your chatroom on our network is more than appreciated. :-)<br />
<br />
== Why don't my commands work? ==<br />
Usually this is because of a syntax error. Check to see if you have typed the command as required. Also make sure that, in case a chatroom name is needed, the channel name starts with a # (hash-sign).<br />
<br />
Also make sure that you have used a space between the actual command and the channelname, and make sure you are not using any formatting codes like colours and bold inside the commands. ''The first character on the line has to be the '''/''' (forward-slash).'' So, for instance, it is ''/nickserv identify myP4ssw0rd'' and '''not''' ''nickserv identify myP4ssw0rd''.<br />
<br />
Finally, if you still have problems with sending commands to our services, you can try opening a private window for the service you need to send a command to, and enter just the command message to it there. For instance, if the command you need to execute is:<br />
''/msg ChanServ HELP''<br />
You can try opening a query window with ChanServ (''/query ChanServ'') and typing:<br />
''HELP''<br />
in that query window.<br />
<br />
It is also possible that a certain (channel-related) command doesn't work because you don't have the appropriate rights on that channel. For instance, if you aren't an operator, you can't /kick people off a channel. Or if you aren't an IRC Server Operator, you can't /kill someone off a server. Also, normal AOPs can't add people to the ChanServ AKick list for instance. Usually the message you get back from the server, will indicate this.<br />
<br />
== Can I become an operator in your Chat4All channels? ==<br />
Operators for our own rooms are appointed by invitation only. To become an operator in someone else's room, you will have to ask there. However, generally asking to become an operator (generally known as 'op-begging') somewhere is considered rude, and may result in getting kicked, or even banned from that chatroom.<br />
<br />
== Can I become an IRC-Operator or NetAdmin on Chat4All? == <br />
No, and people who ask (or even beg) to become an IRC Operator will not even be considered in case such position comes available. IRCOps are considered by invitation only. To become one, you will need to positively catch our attention; be friendly, helpful to others and be knowledgeable of the workings of IRC and our network in particular. And even then there is no guarantee you will be asked. Just have a good time, enjoy the chat.<br />
<br />
== Can I advertise my chatroom on your network? ==<br />
Definitely not.<br />
Advertising your chatroom in other chatrooms on our network is considered rude and thus not allowed.<br />
Would you want others to advertise their chatrooms inside your chatroom? Most likely not.<br />
<br />
However, we do have one exception to this rule: our channel [irc://irc.chat4all.org/chat4all #chat4all].<br />
This channel is, to a certain extent, created specifically for promotion of your own channel.<br />
<br />
== Can I advertise my IRC server or network on your network? ==<br />
'''Definitely not!'''<br />
If you own an IRC server, or you are a staff member on another IRC server/network and you advertise your services on our network, we will consider this spam and you will risk being permanently banned from our network and have your network's addresses [[Spamfilter|spamfiltered]] (blocked/banned).<br />
<br />
== Can I link to your network? ==<br />
If you run a server with its own userbase on a stable dedicated (Linux) server, VPS or shell, and have an IP of your own, you can try opening a support ticket on our [http://support.chat4all.net support portal]. Please note that you'd be required to use our services, and will not be able to take your network name with you. Should a link be accepted, you'd become part of the Chat4All network. If you run a Windows server, or your server is running from your home connection, you need not apply.<br />
<br />
= Security related questions =<br />
<br />
== My firewall software shows an alert every time I enter your network. Why is that? ==<br />
To keep our network clean of possible hackers, we check certain ports when a client connects to our network. These ports are usually used by people who use (open) proxies to enter the chat through someone else's computer without that person knowing it. People who have these open ports will not be allowed on our network. The alert is harmless when it comes from one of our IRC server addresses: <br />
* 188.138.95.217 (our European eu.chat4all.org server) <br />
* 69.64.52.243 (our American us.chat4all.org server).<br />
<br />
== It takes minutes to get connected, why is that? ==<br />
You are probably behind a router or a firewall, which is blocking the TCP 113 port which is used for [[IdentD|IdentDaemons]]. Open/forward this port in your router/firewall (visit portforward.com to find out how to do this for your router/firewall) and you'll find that the access time is vastly improved and your ident will no longer be prefixed with a ~.<br />
<br />
== How can I hide my IP or hostname? ==<br />
We already mask your IP/Hostname to a certain extent by masking the last octet/part.<br />
However, for registered users we also provide custom hostmasks through a [[Vhost|Virtual/Vanity Host]], also known as a Vhost. <br />
Visit the [[vhost]] page for a detailed explanation and [[Vhost#How_to_request|how to request a vhost]].<br />
<br />
Keep in mind that you (and the IRC ''Server'' [[Staff]]) will still be able to see your IP in a /whois on yourself in the 'connecting from' response, however other users can't.<br />
<br />
== Can you read my private messages? ==<br />
No we can't.<br />
Even though regular IRC private messages are send to/from the IRC server, we cannot, ''and will not'' read them.<br />
Doing this would be a breach of privacy which is not only unethical, in some countries it is even illegal.<br />
We do however use software that automatically blocks messages that contain spamfiltered entries, such as virus spam and exploit attempts. This however is not used to eavesdrop on your conversations.<br />
<br />
If you want to be sure your conversations can't be eavesdropped at all, we advise connecting through our SSL port, and only starting private conversations with users that also are on a 'secure connection'. This should enforce end-to-end SSL encryption of your conversation.<br />
<br />
An alternative would be to use DCC CHAT, which will only use the server to initiate a DCC CHAT session and after which the rest of the DCC CHAT session will go via a peer-to-peer connection.<br />
However, note that in this case the security of your conversation lies without our scope, and without encryption (such as SSL or OTR (Off-The-Record) plugin for your IRC client), anyone between your connection and your conversation partner, such as your ISP, could ''theoretically'' eavesdrop the conversation.<br />
<br />
To recap: Chat4All staff will not/cannot read your private conversations, nor can they follow conversations in rooms they are not present. <br />
However if you need an improved sense of security, we advise you to connect to our SSL port to enable SSL encryption when possible (such as a PM with another SSL-enabled user, or in a +Z channel).<br />
Additional security, sometimes at the cost of convenience/compatibility, can be obtained by using client-side encryption plugins such as [http://www.cypherpunks.ca/otr/ OTR]. <br />
For instance [http://irssi-otr.tuxfamily.org/ OTR for irssi], [http://wiki.flashtux.org/wiki/WeeChat/irc-otr for weechat], [http://git.tuxfamily.org/irssiotr/irssiotr.git?p=gitroot/irssiotr/irssiotr.git;a=blob_plain;f=README.xchat;hb=HEAD for XChat], or [http://www.cypherpunks.ca/otr/#downloads for Pidgin]. <br />
<br />
= User related questions =<br />
<br />
== Why haven't I received a confirmation mail even though I registered through NickServ? ==<br />
Make sure you enter the correct e-mail address before you finish your nickname registration. Also check to see if your mailbox isn't full. Finally, nowadays many people (and ISP's) have spam filters in place which can error in detecting what is spam or not. Check to see if your spam filter is not set too high or if your registration/confirmation e-mail has ended up in your junk/spambox. Especially yahoo addresses seem to have problems receiving our confirmation e-mails.<br />
<br />
If you still don't receive a confirmation mail, contact a Chat4All Services Operator. They can drop your registration request, so you can try with a different e-mailaddress, or possibly see on the server what the problem is.<br />
<br />
== Why doesn't the NickServ confirmation code work? ==<br />
When you register your nickname through NickServ, you get an e-mail with a confirmation code<br />
The E-mail will look somewhat like this:<br />
<br />
'''Subject:''' Nickname Registration (YourNickname)<br />
'''From:''' registration (AT) chat4all (DOT) org<br />
'''Content:'''<br />
----<br />
Hi,<br /><br />
You have requested to register the following nickname YourNickname.<br /><br />
Please type " ''/msg NickServ confirm 50m3c0d3h3r3'' " to complete registration.<br /><br />
If you don't know why this mail is sent to you, please ignore it silently.<br /><br />
PLEASE DON'T ANSWER TO THIS MAIL!<br /><br />
chat4all administrators.<br /><br />
<br />
of course the confirmation code will be different ;)<br /><br />
So, just follow the instructions, copy the entire line<br />
''/msg NickServ confirm 50m3c0d3h3r3''<br />
to your chatwindow to confirm your registration.<br />
<br />
You should now get a Notice-Message from NickServ again, this time stating that the registration has been completed:<br />
NickServ : Nickname ''YourNickname'' registered under your account: ''*your@*.host.name''<br />
NickServ : Your password is ''YourPassword'' - remember this for later use.<br />
<br />
If, however, you get a different message, stating that the giving confirmation code was incorrect, then you should check for errors in your typing; perhaps you misjudged a ''zero'' ''(0)'' for an'' 'O'-character '' or a capital ''i'' for a lowercase ''L''. The code is case-sensitive.<br /><br />
The best way to prevent typos is, to select the line from your E-mail, copy it (''by holding down the CTRL-key and pressing the 'c'-key''), and paste it in your chatwindow (''by holding down the CTRL-key again and pressing the 'v'-key'').<br />
<br />
Also make sure you are not copying the double quotes that are around the confirmation line. Commands always start with a '''/'''<br />
<br />
== User x is no longer online, can I still leave a message? ==<br />
If both you, and the person you want to leave a message for, are registered through NickServ, you can use our MemoServ services bot to send a message:<br />
''/MEMOSERV SEND recipientNickname Your message goes here.''<br />
<br />
For instance, if you want to send the user JohnnyExample the message ''"Hei, shame we missed each other online. Can you give me a call when you get this?"'', then type:<br />
''/MEMOSERV SEND JohnnyExample Hei, shame we missed each other online. Can you give me a call when you get this?''<br />
<br />
When JohnnyExample comes online, he'll get a notice from MemoServ that he has a new message waiting. He can then read this message with:<br />
''/MEMOSERV READ NEW''<br />
<br />
Note: you can only send to registered users, and you need to be identified for a registered nickname as well.<br />
<br />
== Why does my nick keep changing to Chat4All_124354? ==<br />
You (or someone else) has registered that nickname and enabled the [[NickServ_Kill_Setting|KILL feature]]. The KILL feature will automatically change the nickname to Chat4All_ followed by a random number when a user does not [[Identify|Identify for that nickname]] within 20 or 60 seconds (depending on the KILL setting).<br />
<br />
If it wasn't you who registered that nickname, then you should pick a different nickname instead. <br />
If you had registered (and confirmed) that nickname within the last 50 days, you should [[Identify|remember to identify for your nickname]] with:<br />
''/NICKSERV IDENTIFY replaceWithYourPassword''<br />
<br />
== Why am I no longer registered? ==<br />
Your nickname will automatically expire if [[Identify|you haven't identified for it in the past 50 days]].<br />
<br />
Your nickname will also be unregistered if you use the<br />
''/NICKSERV DROP''<br />
command.<br />
If you are sure that you identified in the past 50 days, and that you haven't manually dropped your nickname, please open a support ticket on our [http://support.chat4all.net support portal], explaining your problem and including your nickname, your IP and, if you remember, when you registered your nickname. (You can maybe find your confirmation e-mail for this).<br />
<br />
== How can I unregister my nickname? ==<br />
If you no longer want your nickname and e-mail address registered at Chat4All, you can manually drop your nickname yourself with the following command:<br />
''/NICKSERV DROP''<br />
Note that you first need to [[Identify|identify for your nickname]]. If you can't remember your password, as a Chat4All services operator to have it send to the e-mailaddress linked to the NickServ account with the SENDPASS command.<br />
<br />
== How many nicknames may I register? ==<br />
You may register 1 (master/main) nicknames per e-mail address. Should you need multiple nicknames, then you can group up to 4 more nicknames to the main nickname using the NickServ Group command:<br />
''/NICKSERV GROUP replaceWithMainNickname replaceWithMainNickname'sPassword''<br />
For instance, if you have already registered the nickname MeatPie with the password '0hs0juic3y!' and you want to group/link the nickname BlueBerryPie to it, you first do:<br />
''/NICK BlueBerryPie''<br />
To make BlueBerryPie your currently active nickname, and then you enter:<br />
''/NICKSERV GROUP MeatPie 0hs0juic3y!''<br />
<br />
So, per e-mail address you can have up to 5 registered nicknames through the use of the NickServ GROUP command. Please note though, that every single nickname in your group needs to be identified for at least once every 50 days. This is to prevent people from hogging too many nicknames and then not using them anymore.<br />
<br />
== Someone is using my registered nickname. How can I get it back? ==<br />
If your nickname has not been dropped by NickServ, you can 'force a nickchange' on the the user who is using your nickname illegally by issuing the RECOVER command. This will change the other person's nickname to Chat4All_12345 (where 12345 is a random number). The services will then put a temporary hold on your nickname, so the other person can't quickly change their nickname back to it again. You need to drop this hold with the RELEASE command and then /NICK to it yourself. So, to recap, if your nickname is ''TheRealJohnny'', and your password is ''H3r3sJ0nny'' and someone else is using your nickname, you can to use the following commands:<br />
''/NICKSERV RECOVER TheRealJohnny H3r3sJ0nny''<br />
To recover the nickname. Followed by:<br />
''/NICKSERV RELEASE TheRealJohnny H3r3sJ0nny''<br />
to release the hold the services have on them. Quickly followed by:<br />
''/NICK TheRealJohnny''<br />
to change your nickname to TheRealJohnny. Finally you need to identify for your nickname with:<br />
''/NICKSERV IDENTIFY H3r3sJ0nny''<br />
<br />
It is also possible that you lost your connection. When you get back on the server, you may find that your nick is still in use. The server usually notices this a bit late, resulting in a socalled 'ghost connection'. You can remove your ghost by issuing the GHOST command:<br />
''/NICKSERV GHOST replaceWithTheGhostNickname replaceWithYourNickServPassword''<br />
So, for instance if your ghost connection TheRealJohnny (registered with password ''H3r3sJ0nny'') is still active, you have to use the following commands:<br />
''/NICKSERV GHOST TheRealJohnny H3r3sJ0nny''<br />
to terminate the ghost connection. Followed by:<br />
''/NICK TheRealJohnny''<br />
to change your nickname to TheRealJohnny. Finally you need to identify for your nickname with:<br />
''/NICKSERV IDENTIFY H3r3sJ0nny''<br />
<br />
Note that it is very impolite to GHOST a real other user who is using your nickname. Use the RECOVER command instead then.<br />
<br />
If that did not work, then it is likely that your nickname was dropped because you have not authenticated to NickServ within the set time of 50 days. You can then try to re-register it as soon the person who is using it now quits. If he registered it, then there is nothing else you (or we) can/will do.<br />
<br />
<br />
= Website and Applet questions =<br />
<br />
== Why can your applet be used free of charge? ==<br />
Other applets, such as [http://www.javirc.com www.javirc.com] are usually not free of charge. <br />
Our chatnetwork offers server side access. You can access our network with different kinds of client side software. That software is not created by us, and thus the creator of that software is free to ask money for it. <br />
However there are for example previous versions of javirc available which are less pretty, yet free. On the other hand, we do offer a [http://www.chat4all.net/eng_homepage.html webchat through our site]. Also, free of charge.<br />
<br />
== Why does the applet show 2 more unrelated channels in the dropdown? ==<br />
If you are chatting with us through one of our applets on a website, you might (incorrectly) think that all channels belong to that website. However, the channel that belongs to your website is just one of the many chatrooms that the Chat4All IRC Network hosts, most of them belonging to all sorts of different communities.<br />
<br />
Since some of these chatrooms that belong to websites are usually empty, we also list Chat4All's main channel, #lounge, in the channel dropdown list at the top of the applet, so these people will have an active channel to find to talk in. However, not all community websites make it clear that that channel (and others) does not belong to their website.<br />
<br />
For the same reason we also list our technical (IRC) Support channel #help in that list, so people know where they can ask their (technical/IRC-related) questions. Please note that we cannot help you in #help with questions regarding the game or website you are chatting from.<br />
<br />
<br />
== Do you offer channel and network statistics I can use on my website? ==<br />
You can check [http://statistics.chat4all.net/ our Denora stats] for the entire network and public channels.<br />
<br />
== Can i show a list of online chatters on my website? ==<br />
Yes, we offer a 'who is online' service to website owners. This consists of a small piece of HTML code that can be included on your website to show who is inside your IRC channel. Visit the following URL for more information:<br />
<br />
[http://www.chat4all.org/eng_whoison.html Who Is Online Service]<br />
<br />
== How do I add my chatroom to my website? ==<br />
=== Our webclients ===<br />
At the moment we offer 3 different kinds of chat 'applets'<br />
* [[#Java Applet|Java Applet]] our implementation of JPilot's java applet<br />
* [[#Flash Chat|Flash chat]] our implementation of the LightIRC flash client<br />
* [[#Webchat|Our AJAX webchat]], which uses our fork of qwebirc, based on html, css and AJAX technologies.<br />
<br />
==== Flash Chat ====<br />
This is our main alternative to the old Java applet. Our Flash chat uses the [http://www.lightirc.com/ LightIRC Flash IRC Client] to connect to the Chat4All IRC Network. Flash is more commonly available on modern operating systems than Java, and thus has a higher compatibilty. <br />
You can use our [http://chat.chat4all.net/flashgen.php Flash Chat Code Generator] to generate the HTML code to add this IRC client to your website. This generator might change in the near future though, due to updates to the LightIRC client.<br />
<br />
==== Webchat ====<br />
This is our alternative client, which uses our own fork of the [http://qwebirc.org/ qwebirc project], which is a web-based IRC client that uses HTML, CSS and AJAX techniques to connect you to IRC servers.<br />
The added benefit of this client is that it does not require outgoing IRC ports to be opened on your network, since all your traffic will go through the default HTTP port 80 (or HTTPS port 443 should be open up an HTTPS version of the webchat). <br />
This will allow people to connect to Chat4All from networks that have strict network settings, such as blocking all non-HTTP ports.<br />
<br />
To generate the code for your website, go to [http://webchat.chat4all.net/ the Chat4All Webchat] and click on the icon in the top left corner (the 2 speech balloons) and select the 'Add webchat to your site' option from the popupmenu that should appear.<br />
From there, follow the instructions and configure the appearance and settings of the client. At the end of the wizard, it will give you the HTML sourcecode for the iframe you can place on your website.<br />
<br />
==== Java Applet ====<br />
This Java applet will slowly be phased out as it is no longer being updated, and the Java interface has several issues with modern browsers, such as popups being blocked, or security confirmation requests not being shown.<br />
However, for now you can still generate the HTML code to put it on your website, using the [http://www.chat4all.be/eng_homepage.html Java applet code generator].<br />
We would recommend using the [[#Flash Chat|Flash]] or [[#Webchat|Webchat]] instead though, since they have a higher compatibility with modern browsers.<br />
<br />
=== Third Party Webclients ===<br />
There are also some third party webclients available. Here are some alternatives:<br />
* [https://widgetmanager.mibbit.com/ Mibbit], another AJAX-based webclient that offers widgets for your site, and a web-client and an iPhone app.<br />
* [http://www.wsirc.com/ wsIrc], another AJAX-based webclient. They also offer a [http://wsirc.mobi/ mobile version].<br />
* [http://www.pjirc.com/ PJIRC], another Java applet<br />
<br />
<br />
= Channel related questions =<br />
<br />
== Why is the chatroom empty? ==<br />
If the chatroom belongs to a website, it is possible that the chatroom just isn't that popular yet. It often happens that people join a chatroom, see that no-one is there, and leave again, while perhaps 5 minutes later another user does exactly the same thing.<br />
You could suggest to the founder of the channel/website to organise chatevenings. Have a fixed time on which users of the site can get together to have a live chat. You can also start filling the room by always staying connected and in the room and be have a notification when there is activity in the room. If more people do the same, the room might start filling up quickly.<br />
<br />
== Why is nobody talking? ==<br />
Don't panic, you aren't being ignored, not everyone watches their screen at all times. Some even leave their computers on whilst away.<br />
Give it 10-20 minutes or so and somebody will usually respond; otherwise perhaps try again at another time. Highlighting someone's nickname once, might also get some attention. (However, don't overdo this, because some people might not like being highlighted repeatedly).<br />
<br />
== How can I add an operator to my channel? ==<br />
Please read our [[XOP|ChanServ xOP article]] and the [[XOP#How_to_add|How to Add section]] in particular.<br />
<br />
== Why am I not getting an @ in my channel? ==<br />
<br />
=== Why is there an ~ sign instead of an @ in front of my name? ===<br />
If you are getting an ~ sign in front of your name, it means you are recognised as the Founder of the channel instead. This is a higher rank than a regular operator (@). You still have all the powers that you would have as an Operator (@).<br />
In addition to this, you have other rights, such as changing the AOP list.<br />
You can read some more about the Founder status on [http://www.chat4all.net/manual/manual-chan_eng.html#REGISTER our ChanServ#Register manual page].<br />
<br />
You can also, in chat, do:<br />
/CHANSERV HELP<br />
to get a list of the commands available to you through ChanServ as founder.<br />
<br />
The full list of the signs that can appear before a user's nickname is as follows:<br />
~ Founder of the Channel<br />
& User with +a (Admin/SOP) status<br />
@ Regular Operator <br />
% Half-Operator<br />
+ Voiced user<br />
<br />
=== ChanServ doesn't recognise me on my channel ===<br />
If ChanServ doesn't recognise you at all on your channel (you are not getting Voiced/VOP (+), Operator/AOP (@), SOP (%) or Founder (~) status) even though you are certain you have registered your nickname, and are on the channel's ACCESS list (or registered the channel), then you might have [[Identify|forgotten to identify for your nickname]]. Please identify for your nickname with:<br />
''/NICKSERV IDENTIFY replaceWithYourPassword''<br />
<br />
If you still don't get the appropriate access rights, and the channel is registered (the channel's modes should include +r), then contact an IRC Staff member in our support room, or open a support ticket on our [http://support.chat4all.net support portal].<br />
<br />
== Why is my chatroom no longer registered? ==<br />
A Channel registration can be (automatically) dropped for several reasons:<br />
<br />
'''The nickname of the owner expired'''<br />
ChanServ requires that a channel at all times has a Founder.<br />
Therefor, should the NickServ registration of the Founder be dropped (for instance because [[Identify|they haven't identified for their nickname]] within the past 50 days, or because they manually dropped their nickname), ChanServ will check if a Successor has been set for the channel. If there is no Successor set (or the nickname of the Successor is no longer registered either), then the channel will also automatically be dropped/unregistered.<br />
<br />
'''The Founder/Owner hasn't entered their channel, nor used ChanServ IDENTIFY, in the past 50 days.'''<br />
To prevent channels from being unmanaged, a channel needs to be kept active by its founder. The Founder needs to visit their channel at least once every 50 days while [[Identify|being identified]] for the Founder nickname, or use the ''/CHANSERV IDENTIFY'' command to identify as founder of the channel. If the founder does not show this kind of activity, the channel will automatically transfer Founder-status to the Successor. If no successor with a registered nickname is set, then the ChanServ registration will automatically be dropped.<br />
<br />
'''The Founder used the DROP command'''<br />
A channel can be manually unregistered/dropped with the ChanServ DROP command. If you want to drop your channel registration, make sure you are identified for your Founder nickname, and issue:<br />
''/CHANSERV DROP #replaceWithYourChannelname''<br />
<br />
In rare situations your channel might have been dropped by the Chat4All Network staff due to abuse. However, you probably would have been notified already in that situation.<br />
<br />
If you are certain your channel was registered and now it isn't anymore, and you still don't know why your channel is no longer registered, then please contact a Services Operator in our support channel, or by opening a support ticket on our [http://support.chat4all.net support portal]<br />
<br />
== How can I have ChanServ auto-voice everyone on my channel? ==<br />
If you are using the ACCESS LEVELS system instead of the xOP systeem, then you can have your chatters be autovoiced by:<br />
* setting the SECURE option to OFF:<br />
''/CHANSERV SET #replaceWithYourChannelname SECURE OFF''<br />
* and setting the AUTOVOICE level to 0 or -1:<br />
''/CHANSERV LEVELS #replaceWithYourChannelname SET AUTOVOICE -1''<br />
<br />
== How many chatrooms may I register on chat4all? ==<br />
A NickServ registration may register up to 10 chatrooms. This should be more than enough for most people.<br />
<br />
== How many chatrooms may I join on chat4all? ==<br />
You can be in a maximum of 15 channels per connection. This should be more than enough for most people.<br />
<br />
== How do I get a bot on my channel? ==<br />
Chat4All only offers ChanServ/BotServ aliases. We have a Wiki article that explains [[Bot#Request_a_Bot|how to request a BotServ Bot]].<br />
We do not offer bots with custom features though. Should you need one, you need to run it yourself on your own internet connection, and make sure the bot is using usermode +B to identify it is a user bot.<br />
Please note that your bot needs to offer a service to your users. We do not condone fake bots just to increase your channel's usercount.<br />
Also, we do not allow bots that have a malicious purpose, such as (D)DoS'ing hosts, spreading credit card information or other malicious/illegal purposes.<br />
<br />
== Can I get a game/statistics bot inside my chatroom? ==<br />
You are (as room owner) allowed to have 1 bot (outside chanserv) inside your chatroom. This may of course be a game/statistics bot, and it may be using different software. However, this is not software supplied by us. We suggest searching the internet for software like eggdrop, or scripts that can compliment a mIRC installation.<br />
<br />
== Can I change another user's nickname? ==<br />
No, you can't. Nicknames are network-wide and not limited to a channel. Which means that should you as operator be able to change a user's nickname, the user's nickname would change in other channels too. Obviously this is undesired behaviour and as such the IRC protocol doesn't support it.<br />
<br />
All you can do is ban a specific nickname from your channel with '''/mode #yourchannel +b BannedNickname!*@*''' so the user can't talk on your channel unless they change their nickname.<br />
<br />
Or you can ask them to change their nickname with '''/nick ReplaceWithTheirNewNickname'''</div>

== What is a bot ==<br />
A bot is a standalone client or script for an existing client or any other form of software, which has the purpose to automate certain tasks or provide special functions in for instance an IRC Chatroom.<br />
<br />
== BotServ ==<br />
=== What is BotServ ===<br />
On the Chat4All network we run a service called BotServ, which is part of the Anope Services package.<br />
<br />
BotServ provides us with customised ChanServ aliases which contain some extra shortcuts to the most commonly used ChanServ commands, such as voicing, opping, kicking, banning, managing the accesslist and xOP list and some more commands.<br />
=== BotServ Features ===<br />
The bot appears as another user in the room as soon as there are 2 or more persons in the room and most of its details (''Nickname, Ident, [[Vhost]] and Real name'') are customisable when the bot is requested.<br />
<br />
Through the Symbiosis-feature, all actions normally done by ChanServ, such as banning or voicing, will be done by your bot. <br />
With the BotServ's SAY and ACT commands, AOP's and higher can also make the bot 'speak' or 'act' ''(similar to a /me action)'' in the room.<br />
<br />
'''To be clear: our BotServ bots ''do <u>not</u> have !trivia, !quote, !uno, !start or other similar (game) commands built-in!'''''<br /><br />
You need to search and run a bot of your own for this. We can't help you set one up for you. Useful search terms are: ''eggdrop'', ''windrop'', ''mIRC bot'', ''ruby cinch bot'', or ''ruby rbot''.<br />
<br />
=== Expectations ===<br />
'''What can you expect of a BotServ bot?'''<br />
<br />
* '''Keyword definitions through [[ZBot]].''' <br />
We have also installed the ZBot module. If ZBot is enabled by the channel's Founder for the channel, then it allows the channel's AOP's and higher, to teach the bot keywords and their meanings through the '''!learn''' command. <br />
This allows everyone to use the '''? keyword''' command to request the assigned definition of the keyword.<br />
For more info about ZBot, either use the:<br />
'''''/helpop zbot'''''<br />
irc-command while connected to our network; issue '''''!zhelp''''' on your channel while your BotServ bot is there (and ZBot is enabled), or ''read our [[ZBot|ZBot wiki page]]'' for more in-depth information about ZBot.<br />
<br />
* '''Fantasy commands.''' These are actually just simplified forms of several ChanServ and BotServ commands such as !kick, !ban, !kb and !akick. For an overview of all fantasy commands, type the following command in your channel (when your BotServ Bot is in the room):<br />
'''''!help'''''<br />
<br />
* '''Automatic kicks and bans''' based on the use of specific words (see ''/BOTSERV HELP BADWORDS''), excessive caps-, bold- or other formatting abuse or repeated text. For more details, read the text given by the services when using the commands:<br />
'''''/BOTSERV HELP'''''<br />
and for instance:<br />
'''''/BOTSERV HELP KICK'''''<br />
<br />
* '''Saying messages or /me actions through the bot.''' You can use the '''/BOTSERV SAY''' and '''/BOTSERV ACT''' commands to make the bot say or 'do' things.<br /><br />
For more information about this feature, use:<br />
'''''/BOTSERV HELP SAY'''''<br />
and<br />
'''''/BOTSERV HELP ACT'''''<br />
<br />
=== ZBot feature ===<br />
We have also installed the ZBot module. If ZBot is enabled by the channel's Founder for the channel, then it allows the channel's AOP's and higher, to learn the bot keywords and their meanings through the !learn command. <br />
Then everyone can use the '''? keyword''' command to request the assigned meaning of the keyword.<br />
For more info about ZBot, please type the '''/helpop zbot''' irc-command while connected to our network. A wiki-page on ZBot will be created soon.<br />
<br />
== Request a Bot ==<br />
There are two options to have a bot inside your '''''registered''''' chatroom:<br />
<br />
=== Readymade Bot ===<br />
'''You can choose a bot from the list that will be generated with the below command.'''<br /><br />
These bots are either created by us, or other users. The name of these bots cannot be changed. <br />
To see which readymade bots currently are available, you can type '''''(include the /)'''''<br />
<br />
'''''/msg BotServ BOTLIST'''''<br />
<br />
You will be presented with a list like:<br />
<br />
'''BotServ:''' Bot list:<br />
'''BotServ:''' SpongeBob (Nickelodeon@Krusty.Krab)<br />
'''BotServ:''' Aladdin (Wonderlamp@chat4all.org)<br />
'''BotServ:''' Shrek (Ogre@Far.Far.Away)<br />
<br />
Once you've found yourself a botconfiguration you'd like in your room, type:<br />
'''''/msg botserv ASSIGN <font style="color: blue;">#Channel</font> <font style="color: red;">BotNick</font>'''''<br />
Where ''<font style="color: blue;">#Channel</font>'' is the name of your '''registered''' channel, and '' <font style="color: red;">BotNick</font>'' is the name of the bot from the BotList you requested earlier.<br />
<br />
=== Custommade Bot ===<br />
'''You can choose a customised bot with your own chosen (nick)name, ident and [[Vhost]].''' <br /><br />
This name may not be a registered username (this will be checked by us before we create the bot). <br /><br />
You can check this first by changing your name to the name you want the bot to have. If you receive the message that it is a registered name, then you will have to find a new name.<br />
<br />
=== Bot Information ===<br />
To create a custom bot, we will need some information from you:<br />
<br />
*a. a '''nickname''' (The name for your bot)<br />
*b. an '''ident/username''' (which is seen when you do a /whois)<br />
*c. a '''hostname''' (like a vhost e.g.: i.am.a.bot)<br />
*d. a '''Realname/Gecos''' (also seen when you do a /whois -- For instance ''I am a bot'' or ''You are not me'' or ''John Smith'')<br />
*e. the '''name''' of the ''registered'' '''room''' the bot needs to be assigned to<br />
*f. your ''registered'' '''nickname'''<br />
<br />
=== Example ===<br />
A typical bot can look like the following example:<br />
'''Shrek!Ogre@Far.Far.Away)'''<br />
- Nick: Shrek<br />
- Ident: Ogre<br />
- [[Vhost]]: Far.Far.Away<br />
- Real name: I have layers!<br />
All info above does not have to exist and may be fake (we even prefer fake info due to possible legal trademark issues).<br />
Please note that the Vhost may only be a registered domain if you own that domain. Also the ident may contain no special characters other than a dot and may be no longer than 9 characters.<br />
<br />
=== Details ===<br />
The bot itself will only appear when there are at least 2 users in your chatroom. As soon as only one user is left, the bot will go away and will re-appear when another user enters the room.<br />
<br />
When you pick a bot with a self chosen name, then you can have it made '''''"PRIVATE"''''' by us. If you do not have it set to private, then the bot will appear in the bot listing so that other users can have your bot in their room as well.<br />
<br />
All bots are configurable to your own liking. For more info on how to do this, type the following command while connected to our server:<br />
'''''/msg botserv help'''''<br />
or read our [http://www.chat4all.net/manual/manual-bot_eng.html Online BotServ Manual]<br />
<br />
<br />
=== Requestform ===<br />
If, after having read the above, you decide you want a bot, [http://support.chat4all.net/index.php?/Tickets/Submit open a new Bot Request Ticket] at our [http://support.chat4all.net Chat4All Support Desk], copy the below form to it and fill it in.<br />

|}<br />
<br />
== IMPORTANT ==<br />
<div style="color: #FF0000;font-weight: bold;text-align:center;">In the past we've had users sending us the channelpassword as well, thinking that we would need that. <br />
However, we do not need that and a staffmember will never request the password of your nickname or channel for these matters.<br /><br />
Please keep your password information to yourself and report anyone asking for it, claiming to be staff.<br />

= Wat is een bot =<br />
Een bot is een losstaande client, een script voor een bestaande client, of enig andere vorm van software met het doel bepaalde taken te automatiseren, of speciale functies aan te bieden in bijvoorbeeld een IRC chatkamer.<br />
<br />
== BotServ ==<br />
Een voorbeeld van een IRC bot is BotServ.<br />
Op het Chat4All netwerk draaien we deze service, welke onderdeel is van het Anope IRC services pakket.<br />
<br />
BotServ levert ons aanpasbare ChanServ aliasen, met een aantal extra functionaliteiten. Een voorbeeld hiervan zijn 'fantasy' tekst commando's die je makkelijk in het kanaal kan gebruiken om iemand te voicen (!voice gebruikersnaam), kickbannen (!kb gebruikersnaam), toegangs- en xOP-lijst aan te passen en nog meer handige commando's.<br />
Ook biedt BotServ ondersteuning voor een aantal automatische 'kickers' op bijvoorbeeld overvloedig HOOFDLETTERS gebruik, flooden en kick op zelf-instelbare woorden.<br />
<br />
=== BotServ Eigenschappen ===<br />
De bot verschijnt pas als een gebruiker in de kamer zodra er 2 of meer personen in de kamer zijn. De meeste van zijn kenmerken (''nickname, [[NL/IdentD|ident]], [[Vhost]] en 'GeCOS'/'volledige naam' '') zijn instelbaar wanneer de bot aangevraagd wordt.<br />
<br />
Door de zogenaamde 'Symbiosis'-eigenschap zullen alle acties die normaal door ChanServ gedaan werden (zoals bannen, voicen, op-rechten geven, etc), vervolgens gedaan worden door je BotServ bot.<br />
<br />
Via de BotServ SAY en ACT commando's kunnen AOPs en hoger de bot ook laten 'spreken' of 'acties' (zelfde als /me actie) laten uitvoeren in de kamer.<br />
<br />
=== ZBot ===<br />
We hebben ook de ZBot module geinstalleerd. Wanneer ZBot door de oprichter/founder van het kanaal is geactiveerd, dan kunnen de AOPs en hoger van de kamer de bot sleutelwoorden aanleren. Via het !learn commando kan een operator the bot vertellen wat een bepaald sleutelwoord betekent.<br />
Voor meer details, lees de [[NL/ZBot|ZBot pagina]].<br />
<br />
== Aanvragen van een Bot ==<br />
Er zijn twee mogelijkheden om een botje op naam in je geregistreerde kamer te krijgen:<br />
<br />
1. Je kiest uit het lijstje een al bestaande bot. Deze botjes zijn door andere gebruikers of door ons gemaakt en hun naam kun je niet wijzigen.<br />
Om te zien welke bestaande botjes op het moment beschikbaar zijn typ je:<br />
<br />
'''''/BOTSERV BOTLIST'''''<br />
<br />
Je ziet dan een lijstje met o.a.<br />
<br />
''BotServ: Bot list:''<br />
''BotServ: SpongeBob (Nickelodeon@Krusty.Krab)''<br />
''BotServ: Aladdin (Wonderlamp@chat4all.org)''<br />
''BotServ: Shrek (Ogre@Far.Far.Away)''<br />
<br />
het toevoegen aan je kamer doe je vervolgens met:<br />
'''''/BOTSERV ASSIGN <font style="color: blue;">#kanaal</font> <font style="color: red;">Botnick</font>'''''<br />
<br />
waarbij je ''<div style="display: inline;color: red;">Botnick</div>'' vervangt met nickname van de bot die je in de botlijst hebt gevonden, en ''<div style="display: inline;color: blue;">#kanaal</div>'' vervangt met de naam van je eigen kanaal.<br />
<br />
2. Je kiest zelf een naam voor je bot. (Deze naam mag niet een geregistreerde nickname van een gebruiker zijn, dit wordt door ons gecontroleerd. Probeer eerst even zelf de nickname van je bot aan te nemen en kijk of je een melding krijgt dat die naam al geregistreerd is.)<br />
<br />
Hiervoor heb ik een paar door jou verzonnen namen nodig en wel:<br />
a. een nickname (de naam van de bot)<br />
b. een ident/user naam (op te vragen met /whois botnaam)<br />
c. een host naam (net als een vhost, bijvoorbeeld: ik.ben.een.bot)<br />
d. een 'echte naam'/Gecos (alleen zichtbaar wanneer je een /whois op de bot naam doet. Bijvoorbeeld 'Ik ben een bot')<br />
e. de naam van de geregistreerde kamer waar de bot aanwezig zal zijn<br />
f. jouw geregistreerde nicknaam<br />
<br />
Wat vul je dan in? Als voorbeeld nemen we 'Shrek (Ogre@Far.Far.Away)'<br />
- a. nick: Shrek<br />
- b. ident: Ogre<br />
- c. host: Far.Far.Away<br />
- d. en de real name/echte naam is: I have layers!<br />
- e. Chatkamer: #mijnkamer<br />
- f. Mijn nicknaam: Ikke<br />
<br />
Je mag dus al deze namen zelf bedenken.<br /><br />
Het botje zelf verschijnt pas in je kamer zodra er '''2 gebruikers of meer''' in je kamer aanwezig zijn. Wanneer je alleen overblijft gaat het botje weg en komt pas terug als er weer iemand bijkomt.<br />
<br />
Als je een botje met zelf gekozen namen neemt, kun je het door ons PRIVATE (privé) laten zetten. Doe je dat niet dan verschijnt het in de botlist (te zien via '''/msg botserv BOTLIST''') en kunnen ook andere gebruikers dit botje aan hun kamer laten verbinden.<br />
<br />
Voor alle botjes geldt hetzelfde, je kunt ze naar eigen wens configureren, typ /msg botserv help.<br />
<br />
Als je besloten hebt dat je een botje wil, laat ons dan even weten onder welke naam/namen en vermeld dan tevens in welke (geregistreerde) kamer je dit botje wil hebben.<br />
<br />

<p>Adonis: </p>
<hr />
<div>[[Category:EN]]<br />
On this page you can find answers to questions you may have. If the answer to your question is not listed here, then please open a support ticket on our [http://support.chat4all.net support portal] or ask it in our support channel.<br />
<br />
=Generic Questions=<br />
<br />
== Is having a chatroom at Chat4All free? ==<br />
Yes, having a chatroom at the Chat4All IRC Network is absolutely free!<br />
You don't even have to place a banner or put up with advertising. <br />
However, having a banner or a short line on your website, indicating that you have your chatroom on our network is more than appreciated. :-)<br />
<br />
== Why don't my commands work? ==<br />
Usually this is because of a syntax error. Check to see if you have typed the command as required. Also make sure that, in case a chatroom name is needed, the channel name starts with a # (hash-sign).<br />
<br />
Also make sure that you have used a space between the actual command and the channelname, and make sure you are not using any formatting codes like colours and bold inside the commands. ''The first character on the line has to be the '''/''' (forward-slash).'' So, for instance, it is ''/nickserv identify myP4ssw0rd'' and '''not''' ''nickserv identify myP4ssw0rd''.<br />
<br />
Finally, if you still have problems with sending commands to our services, you can try opening a private window for the service you need to send a command to, and enter just the command message to it there. For instance, if the command you need to execute is:<br />
''/msg ChanServ HELP''<br />
You can try opening a query window with ChanServ (''/query ChanServ'') and typing:<br />
''HELP''<br />
in that query window.<br />
<br />
It is also possible that a certain (channel-related) command doesn't work because you don't have the appropriate rights on that channel. For instance, if you aren't an operator, you can't /kick people off a channel. Or if you aren't an IRC Server Operator, you can't /kill someone off a server. Also, normal AOPs can't add people to the ChanServ AKick list for instance. Usually the message you get back from the server, will indicate this.<br />
<br />
== Can I become an operator in your Chat4All channels? ==<br />
Operators for our own rooms are appointed by invitation only. To become an operator in someone else's room, you will have to ask there. However, generally asking to become an operator (generally known as 'op-begging') somewhere is considered rude, and may result in getting kicked, or even banned from that chatroom.<br />
<br />
== Can I become an IRC-Operator or NetAdmin on Chat4All? == <br />
No, and people who ask (or even beg) to become an IRC Operator will not even be considered in case such position comes available. IRCOps are considered by invitation only. To become one, you will need to positively catch our attention; be friendly, helpful to others and be knowledgeable of the workings of IRC and our network in particular. And even then there is no guarantee you will be asked. Just have a good time, enjoy the chat.<br />
<br />
== Can I advertise my chatroom on your network? ==<br />
Definitely not.<br />
Advertising your chatroom in other chatrooms on our network is considered rude and thus not allowed.<br />
Would you want others to advertise their chatrooms inside your chatroom? Most likely not.<br />
<br />
However, we do have one exception to this rule: our channel [irc://irc.chat4all.org/chat4all #chat4all].<br />
This channel is, to a certain extent, created specifically for promotion of your own channel.<br />
<br />
== Can I advertise my IRC server or network on your network? ==<br />
'''Definitely not!'''<br />
If you own an IRC server, or you are a staff member on another IRC server/network and you advertise your services on our network, we will consider this spam and you will risk being permanently banned from our network and have your network's addresses [[Spamfilter|spamfiltered]] (blocked/banned).<br />
<br />
== Can I link to your network? ==<br />
If you run a server with its own userbase on a stable dedicated (Linux) server, VPS or shell, and have an IP of your own, you can try opening a support ticket on our [http://support.chat4all.net support portal]. Please note that you'd be required to use our services, and will not be able to take your network name with you. Should a link be accepted, you'd become part of the Chat4All network. If you run a Windows server, or your server is running from your home connection, you need not apply.<br />
<br />
= Security related questions =<br />
<br />
== My firewall software shows an alert every time I enter your network. Why is that? ==<br />
To keep our network clean of possible hackers, we check certain ports when a client connects to our network. These ports are usually used by people who use (open) proxies to enter the chat through someone else's computer without that person knowing it. People who have these open ports will not be allowed on our network. The alert is harmless when it comes from one of our IRC server addresses: <br />
* 188.138.95.217 (our European eu.chat4all.org server) <br />
* 69.64.52.243 (our American us.chat4all.org server).<br />
<br />
== It takes minutes to get connected, why is that? ==<br />
You are probably behind a router or a firewall, which is blocking the TCP 113 port which is used for [[IdentD|IdentDaemons]]. Open/forward this port in your router/firewall (visit portforward.com to find out how to do this for your router/firewall) and you'll find that the access time is vastly improved and your ident will no longer be prefixed with a ~.<br />
<br />
== How can I hide my IP or hostname? ==<br />
We already mask your IP/Hostname to a certain extent by masking the last octet/part.<br />
However, for registered users we also provide custom hostmasks through a [[Vhost|Virtual/Vanity Host]], also known as a Vhost. <br />
Visit the [[vhost]] page for a detailed explanation and [[Vhost#How_to_request|how to request a vhost]].<br />
<br />
Keep in mind that you (and the IRC ''Server'' [[Staff]]) will still be able to see your IP in a /whois on yourself in the 'connecting from' response, however other users can't.<br />
<br />
== Can you read my private messages? ==<br />
No we can't.<br />
Even though regular IRC private messages are send to/from the IRC server, we cannot, ''and will not'' read them.<br />
Doing this would be a breach of privacy which is not only unethical, in some countries it is even illegal.<br />
We do however use software that automatically blocks messages that contain spamfiltered entries, such as virus spam and exploit attempts. This however is not used to eavesdrop on your conversations.<br />
<br />
If you want to be sure your conversations can't be eavesdropped at all, we advise connecting through our SSL port, and only starting private conversations with users that also are on a 'secure connection'. This should enforce end-to-end SSL encryption of your conversation.<br />
<br />
An alternative would be to use DCC CHAT, which will only use the server to initiate a DCC CHAT session and after which the rest of the DCC CHAT session will go via a peer-to-peer connection.<br />
However, note that in this case the security of your conversation lies without our scope, and without encryption (such as SSL or OTR (Off-The-Record) plugin for your IRC client), anyone between your connection and your conversation partner, such as your ISP, could ''theoretically'' eavesdrop the conversation.<br />
<br />
To recap: Chat4All staff will not/cannot read your private conversations, nor can they follow conversations in rooms they are not present. <br />
However if you need an improved sense of security, we advise you to connect to our SSL port to enable SSL encryption when possible (such as a PM with another SSL-enabled user, or in a +Z channel).<br />
Additional security, sometimes at the cost of convenience/compatibility, can be obtained by using client-side encryption plugins such as [http://www.cypherpunks.ca/otr/ OTR]. <br />
For instance [http://irssi-otr.tuxfamily.org/ OTR for irssi], [http://wiki.flashtux.org/wiki/WeeChat/irc-otr for weechat], [http://git.tuxfamily.org/irssiotr/irssiotr.git?p=gitroot/irssiotr/irssiotr.git;a=blob_plain;f=README.xchat;hb=HEAD for XChat], or [http://www.cypherpunks.ca/otr/#downloads for Pidgin]. <br />
<br />
= User related questions =<br />
<br />
== Why haven't I received a confirmation mail even though I registered through NickServ? ==<br />
Make sure you enter the correct e-mail address before you finish your nickname registration. Also check to see if your mailbox isn't full. Finally, nowadays many people (and ISP's) have spam filters in place which can error in detecting what is spam or not. Check to see if your spam filter is not set too high or if your registration/confirmation e-mail has ended up in your junk/spambox. Especially yahoo addresses seem to have problems receiving our confirmation e-mails.<br />
<br />
If you still don't receive a confirmation mail, contact a Chat4All Services Operator. They can drop your registration request, so you can try with a different e-mailaddress, or possibly see on the server what the problem is.<br />
<br />
== Why doesn't the NickServ confirmation code work? ==<br />
When you register your nickname through NickServ, you get an e-mail with a confirmation code<br />
The E-mail will look somewhat like this:<br />
<br />
'''Subject:''' Nickname Registration (YourNickname)<br />
'''From:''' registration (AT) chat4all (DOT) org<br />
'''Content:'''<br />
----<br />
Hi,<br /><br />
You have requested to register the following nickname YourNickname.<br /><br />
Please type " ''/msg NickServ confirm 50m3c0d3h3r3'' " to complete registration.<br /><br />
If you don't know why this mail is sent to you, please ignore it silently.<br /><br />
PLEASE DON'T ANSWER TO THIS MAIL!<br /><br />
chat4all administrators.<br /><br />
<br />
of course the confirmation code will be different ;)<br /><br />
So, just follow the instructions, copy the entire line<br />
''/msg NickServ confirm 50m3c0d3h3r3''<br />
to your chatwindow to confirm your registration.<br />
<br />
You should now get a Notice-Message from NickServ again, this time stating that the registration has been completed:<br />
NickServ : Nickname ''YourNickname'' registered under your account: ''*your@*.host.name''<br />
NickServ : Your password is ''YourPassword'' - remember this for later use.<br />
<br />
If, however, you get a different message, stating that the giving confirmation code was incorrect, then you should check for errors in your typing; perhaps you misjudged a ''zero'' ''(0)'' for an'' 'O'-character '' or a capital ''i'' for a lowercase ''L''. The code is case-sensitive.<br /><br />
The best way to prevent typos is, to select the line from your E-mail, copy it (''by holding down the CTRL-key and pressing the 'c'-key''), and paste it in your chatwindow (''by holding down the CTRL-key again and pressing the 'v'-key'').<br />
<br />
Also make sure you are not copying the double quotes that are around the confirmation line. Commands always start with a '''/'''<br />
<br />
== User x is no longer online, can I still leave a message? ==<br />
If both you, and the person you want to leave a message for, are registered through NickServ, you can use our MemoServ services bot to send a message:<br />
''/MEMOSERV SEND recipientNickname Your message goes here.''<br />
<br />
For instance, if you want to send the user JohnnyExample the message ''"Hei, shame we missed each other online. Can you give me a call when you get this?"'', then type:<br />
''/MEMOSERV SEND JohnnyExample Hei, shame we missed each other online. Can you give me a call when you get this?''<br />
<br />
When JohnnyExample comes online, he'll get a notice from MemoServ that he has a new message waiting. He can then read this message with:<br />
''/MEMOSERV READ NEW''<br />
<br />
Note: you can only send to registered users, and you need to be identified for a registered nickname as well.<br />
<br />
== Why does my nick keep changing to Chat4All_124354? ==<br />
You (or someone else) has registered that nickname and enabled the [[NickServ_Kill_Setting|KILL feature]]. The KILL feature will automatically change the nickname to Chat4All_ followed by a random number when a user does not [[Identify|Identify for that nickname]] within 20 or 60 seconds (depending on the KILL setting).<br />
<br />
If it wasn't you who registered that nickname, then you should pick a different nickname instead. <br />
If you had registered (and confirmed) that nickname within the last 28 days, you should [[Identify|remember to identify for your nickname]] with:<br />
''/NICKSERV IDENTIFY replaceWithYourPassword''<br />
<br />
== Why am I no longer registered? ==<br />
Your nickname will automatically expire if [[Identify|you haven't identified for it in the past 28 days]].<br />
<br />
Your nickname will also be unregistered if you use the<br />
''/NICKSERV DROP''<br />
command.<br />
If you are sure that you identified in the past 28 days, and that you haven't manually dropped your nickname, please open a support ticket on our [http://support.chat4all.net support portal], explaining your problem and including your nickname, your IP and, if you remember, when you registered your nickname. (You can maybe find your confirmation e-mail for this).<br />
<br />
== How can I unregister my nickname? ==<br />
If you no longer want your nickname and e-mail address registered at Chat4All, you can manually drop your nickname yourself with the following command:<br />
''/NICKSERV DROP''<br />
Note that you first need to [[Identify|identify for your nickname]]. If you can't remember your password, as a Chat4All services operator to have it send to the e-mailaddress linked to the NickServ account with the SENDPASS command.<br />
<br />
== How many nicknames may I register? ==<br />
You may register 1 (master/main) nicknames per e-mail address. Should you need multiple nicknames, then you can group up to 4 more nicknames to the main nickname using the NickServ Group command:<br />
''/NICKSERV GROUP replaceWithMainNickname replaceWithMainNickname'sPassword''<br />
For instance, if you have already registered the nickname MeatPie with the password '0hs0juic3y!' and you want to group/link the nickname BlueBerryPie to it, you first do:<br />
''/NICK BlueBerryPie''<br />
To make BlueBerryPie your currently active nickname, and then you enter:<br />
''/NICKSERV GROUP MeatPie 0hs0juic3y!''<br />
<br />
So, per e-mail address you can have up to 5 registered nicknames through the use of the NickServ GROUP command. Please note though, that every single nickname in your group needs to be identified for at least once every 28 days. This is to prevent people from hogging too many nicknames and then not using them anymore.<br />
<br />
== Someone is using my registered nickname. How can I get it back? ==<br />
If your nickname has not been dropped by NickServ, you can 'force a nickchange' on the the user who is using your nickname illegally by issuing the RECOVER command. This will change the other person's nickname to Chat4All_12345 (where 12345 is a random number). The services will then put a temporary hold on your nickname, so the other person can't quickly change their nickname back to it again. You need to drop this hold with the RELEASE command and then /NICK to it yourself. So, to recap, if your nickname is ''TheRealJohnny'', and your password is ''H3r3sJ0nny'' and someone else is using your nickname, you can to use the following commands:<br />
''/NICKSERV RECOVER TheRealJohnny H3r3sJ0nny''<br />
To recover the nickname. Followed by:<br />
''/NICKSERV RELEASE TheRealJohnny H3r3sJ0nny''<br />
to release the hold the services have on them. Quickly followed by:<br />
''/NICK TheRealJohnny''<br />
to change your nickname to TheRealJohnny. Finally you need to identify for your nickname with:<br />
''/NICKSERV IDENTIFY H3r3sJ0nny''<br />
<br />
It is also possible that you lost your connection. When you get back on the server, you may find that your nick is still in use. The server usually notices this a bit late, resulting in a socalled 'ghost connection'. You can remove your ghost by issuing the GHOST command:<br />
''/NICKSERV GHOST replaceWithTheGhostNickname replaceWithYourNickServPassword''<br />
So, for instance if your ghost connection TheRealJohnny (registered with password ''H3r3sJ0nny'') is still active, you have to use the following commands:<br />
''/NICKSERV GHOST TheRealJohnny H3r3sJ0nny''<br />
to terminate the ghost connection. Followed by:<br />
''/NICK TheRealJohnny''<br />
to change your nickname to TheRealJohnny. Finally you need to identify for your nickname with:<br />
''/NICKSERV IDENTIFY H3r3sJ0nny''<br />
<br />
Note that it is very impolite to GHOST a real other user who is using your nickname. Use the RECOVER command instead then.<br />
<br />
If that did not work, then it is likely that your nickname was dropped because you have not authenticated to NickServ within the set time of 28 days. You can then try to re-register it as soon the person who is using it now quits. If he registered it, then there is nothing else you (or we) can/will do.<br />
<br />
<br />
= Website and Applet questions =<br />
<br />
== Why can your applet be used free of charge? ==<br />
Other applets, such as [http://www.javirc.com www.javirc.com] are usually not free of charge. <br />
Our chatnetwork offers server side access. You can access our network with different kinds of client side software. That software is not created by us, and thus the creator of that software is free to ask money for it. <br />
However there are for example previous versions of javirc available which are less pretty, yet free. On the other hand, we do offer a [http://www.chat4all.net/eng_homepage.html webchat through our site]. Also, free of charge.<br />
<br />
== Why does the applet show 2 more unrelated channels in the dropdown? ==<br />
If you are chatting with us through one of our applets on a website, you might (incorrectly) think that all channels belong to that website. However, the channel that belongs to your website is just one of the many chatrooms that the Chat4All IRC Network hosts, most of them belonging to all sorts of different communities.<br />
<br />
Since some of these chatrooms that belong to websites are usually empty, we also list Chat4All's main channel, #lounge, in the channel dropdown list at the top of the applet, so these people will have an active channel to find to talk in. However, not all community websites make it clear that that channel (and others) does not belong to their website.<br />
<br />
For the same reason we also list our technical (IRC) Support channel #help in that list, so people know where they can ask their (technical/IRC-related) questions. Please note that we cannot help you in #help with questions regarding the game or website you are chatting from.<br />
<br />
<br />
== Do you offer channel and network statistics I can use on my website? ==<br />
You can check [http://statistics.chat4all.net/ our Denora stats] for the entire network and public channels.<br />
<br />
== Can i show a list of online chatters on my website? ==<br />
Yes, we offer a 'who is online' service to website owners. This consists of a small piece of HTML code that can be included on your website to show who is inside your IRC channel. Visit the following URL for more information:<br />
<br />
[http://www.chat4all.org/eng_whoison.html Who Is Online Service]<br />
<br />
== How do I add my chatroom to my website? ==<br />
=== Our webclients ===<br />
At the moment we offer 3 different kinds of chat 'applets'<br />
* [[#Java Applet|Java Applet]] our implementation of JPilot's java applet<br />
* [[#Flash Chat|Flash chat]] our implementation of the LightIRC flash client<br />
* [[#Webchat|Our AJAX webchat]], which uses our fork of qwebirc, based on html, css and AJAX technologies.<br />
<br />
==== Flash Chat ====<br />
This is our main alternative to the old Java applet. Our Flash chat uses the [http://www.lightirc.com/ LightIRC Flash IRC Client] to connect to the Chat4All IRC Network. Flash is more commonly available on modern operating systems than Java, and thus has a higher compatibilty. <br />
You can use our [http://chat.chat4all.net/flashgen.php Flash Chat Code Generator] to generate the HTML code to add this IRC client to your website. This generator might change in the near future though, due to updates to the LightIRC client.<br />
<br />
==== Webchat ====<br />
This is our alternative client, which uses our own fork of the [http://qwebirc.org/ qwebirc project], which is a web-based IRC client that uses HTML, CSS and AJAX techniques to connect you to IRC servers.<br />
The added benefit of this client is that it does not require outgoing IRC ports to be opened on your network, since all your traffic will go through the default HTTP port 80 (or HTTPS port 443 should be open up an HTTPS version of the webchat). <br />
This will allow people to connect to Chat4All from networks that have strict network settings, such as blocking all non-HTTP ports.<br />
<br />
To generate the code for your website, go to [http://webchat.chat4all.net/ the Chat4All Webchat] and click on the icon in the top left corner (the 2 speech balloons) and select the 'Add webchat to your site' option from the popupmenu that should appear.<br />
From there, follow the instructions and configure the appearance and settings of the client. At the end of the wizard, it will give you the HTML sourcecode for the iframe you can place on your website.<br />
<br />
==== Java Applet ====<br />
This Java applet will slowly be phased out as it is no longer being updated, and the Java interface has several issues with modern browsers, such as popups being blocked, or security confirmation requests not being shown.<br />
However, for now you can still generate the HTML code to put it on your website, using the [http://www.chat4all.be/eng_homepage.html Java applet code generator].<br />
We would recommend using the [[#Flash Chat|Flash]] or [[#Webchat|Webchat]] instead though, since they have a higher compatibility with modern browsers.<br />
<br />
=== Third Party Webclients ===<br />
There are also some third party webclients available. Here are some alternatives:<br />
* [https://widgetmanager.mibbit.com/ Mibbit], another AJAX-based webclient that offers widgets for your site, and a web-client and an iPhone app.<br />
* [http://www.wsirc.com/ wsIrc], another AJAX-based webclient. They also offer a [http://wsirc.mobi/ mobile version].<br />
* [http://www.pjirc.com/ PJIRC], another Java applet<br />
<br />
<br />
= Channel related questions =<br />
<br />
== Why is the chatroom empty? ==<br />
If the chatroom belongs to a website, it is possible that the chatroom just isn't that popular yet. It often happens that people join a chatroom, see that no-one is there, and leave again, while perhaps 5 minutes later another user does exactly the same thing.<br />
You could suggest to the founder of the channel/website to organise chatevenings. Have a fixed time on which users of the site can get together to have a live chat. You can also start filling the room by always staying connected and in the room and be have a notification when there is activity in the room. If more people do the same, the room might start filling up quickly.<br />
<br />
== Why is nobody talking? ==<br />
Don't panic, you aren't being ignored, not everyone watches their screen at all times. Some even leave their computers on whilst away.<br />
Give it 10-20 minutes or so and somebody will usually respond; otherwise perhaps try again at another time. Highlighting someone's nickname once, might also get some attention. (However, don't overdo this, because some people might not like being highlighted repeatedly).<br />
<br />
== How can I add an operator to my channel? ==<br />
Please read our [[XOP|ChanServ xOP article]] and the [[XOP#How_to_add|How to Add section]] in particular.<br />
<br />
== Why am I not getting an @ in my channel? ==<br />
<br />
=== Why is there an ~ sign instead of an @ in front of my name? ===<br />
If you are getting an ~ sign in front of your name, it means you are recognised as the Founder of the channel instead. This is a higher rank than a regular operator (@). You still have all the powers that you would have as an Operator (@).<br />
In addition to this, you have other rights, such as changing the AOP list.<br />
You can read some more about the Founder status on [http://www.chat4all.net/manual/manual-chan_eng.html#REGISTER our ChanServ#Register manual page].<br />
<br />
You can also, in chat, do:<br />
/CHANSERV HELP<br />
to get a list of the commands available to you through ChanServ as founder.<br />
<br />
The full list of the signs that can appear before a user's nickname is as follows:<br />
~ Founder of the Channel<br />
& User with +a (Admin/SOP) status<br />
@ Regular Operator <br />
% Half-Operator<br />
+ Voiced user<br />
<br />
=== ChanServ doesn't recognise me on my channel ===<br />
If ChanServ doesn't recognise you at all on your channel (you are not getting Voiced/VOP (+), Operator/AOP (@), SOP (%) or Founder (~) status) even though you are certain you have registered your nickname, and are on the channel's ACCESS list (or registered the channel), then you might have [[Identify|forgotten to identify for your nickname]]. Please identify for your nickname with:<br />
''/NICKSERV IDENTIFY replaceWithYourPassword''<br />
<br />
If you still don't get the appropriate access rights, and the channel is registered (the channel's modes should include +r), then contact an IRC Staff member in our support room, or open a support ticket on our [http://support.chat4all.net support portal].<br />
<br />
== Why is my chatroom no longer registered? ==<br />
A Channel registration can be (automatically) dropped for several reasons:<br />
<br />
'''The nickname of the owner expired'''<br />
ChanServ requires that a channel at all times has a Founder.<br />
Therefor, should the NickServ registration of the Founder be dropped (for instance because [[Identify|they haven't identified for their nickname]] within the past 28 days, or because they manually dropped their nickname), ChanServ will check if a Successor has been set for the channel. If there is no Successor set (or the nickname of the Successor is no longer registered either), then the channel will also automatically be dropped/unregistered.<br />
<br />
'''The Founder/Owner hasn't entered their channel, nor used ChanServ IDENTIFY, in the past 28 days.'''<br />
To prevent channels from being unmanaged, a channel needs to be kept active by its founder. The Founder needs to visit their channel at least once every 28 days while [[Identify|being identified]] for the Founder nickname, or use the ''/CHANSERV IDENTIFY'' command to identify as founder of the channel. If the founder does not show this kind of activity, the channel will automatically transfer Founder-status to the Successor. If no successor with a registered nickname is set, then the ChanServ registration will automatically be dropped.<br />
<br />
'''The Founder used the DROP command'''<br />
A channel can be manually unregistered/dropped with the ChanServ DROP command. If you want to drop your channel registration, make sure you are identified for your Founder nickname, and issue:<br />
''/CHANSERV DROP #replaceWithYourChannelname''<br />
<br />
In rare situations your channel might have been dropped by the Chat4All Network staff due to abuse. However, you probably would have been notified already in that situation.<br />
<br />
If you are certain your channel was registered and now it isn't anymore, and you still don't know why your channel is no longer registered, then please contact a Services Operator in our support channel, or by opening a support ticket on our [http://support.chat4all.net support portal]<br />
<br />
== How can I have ChanServ auto-voice everyone on my channel? ==<br />
If you are using the ACCESS LEVELS system instead of the xOP systeem, then you can have your chatters be autovoiced by:<br />
* setting the SECURE option to OFF:<br />
''/CHANSERV SET #replaceWithYourChannelname SECURE OFF''<br />
* and setting the AUTOVOICE level to 0 or -1:<br />
''/CHANSERV LEVELS #replaceWithYourChannelname SET AUTOVOICE -1''<br />
<br />
== How many chatrooms may I register on chat4all? ==<br />
A NickServ registration may register up to 10 chatrooms. This should be more than enough for most people.<br />
<br />
== How many chatrooms may I join on chat4all? ==<br />
You can be in a maximum of 15 channels per connection. This should be more than enough for most people.<br />
<br />
== How do I get a bot on my channel? ==<br />
Chat4All only offers ChanServ/BotServ aliases. We have a Wiki article that explains [[Bot#Request_a_Bot|how to request a BotServ Bot]].<br />
We do not offer bots with custom features though. Should you need one, you need to run it yourself on your own internet connection, and make sure the bot is using usermode +B to identify it is a user bot.<br />
Please note that your bot needs to offer a service to your users. We do not condone fake bots just to increase your channel's usercount.<br />
Also, we do not allow bots that have a malicious purpose, such as (D)DoS'ing hosts, spreading credit card information or other malicious/illegal purposes.<br />
<br />
== Can I get a game/statistics bot inside my chatroom? ==<br />
You are (as room owner) allowed to have 1 bot (outside chanserv) inside your chatroom. This may of course be a game/statistics bot, and it may be using different software. However, this is not software supplied by us. We suggest searching the internet for software like eggdrop, or scripts that can compliment a mIRC installation.</div>

<p>Adonis: /* My firewall software shows an alert every time I enter your network. Why is that? */</p>
<hr />
<div>[[Category:EN]]<br />
On this page you can find answers to questions you may have. If the answer to your question is not listed here, then please open a support ticket on our [http://support.chat4all.net support portal] or ask it in our support channel.<br />
<br />
=Generic Questions=<br />
<br />
== Is having a chatroom at Chat4All free? ==<br />
Yes, having a chatroom at the Chat4All IRC Network is absolutely free!<br />
You don't even have to place a banner or put up with advertising. <br />
However, having a banner or a short line on your website, indicating that you have your chatroom on our network is more than appreciated. :-)<br />
<br />
== Why don't my commands work? ==<br />
Usually this is because of a syntax error. Check to see if you have typed the command as required. Also make sure that, in case a chatroom name is needed, the channel name starts with a # (hash-sign).<br />
<br />
Also make sure that you have used a space between the actual command and the channelname, and make sure you are not using any formatting codes like colours and bold inside the commands. ''The first character on the line has to be the '''/''' (forward-slash).'' So, for instance, it is ''/nickserv identify myP4ssw0rd'' and '''not''' ''nickserv identify myP4ssw0rd''.<br />
<br />
Finally, if you still have problems with sending commands to our services, you can try opening a private window for the service you need to send a command to, and enter just the command message to it there. For instance, if the command you need to execute is:<br />
''/msg ChanServ HELP''<br />
You can try opening a query window with ChanServ (''/query ChanServ'') and typing:<br />
''HELP''<br />
in that query window.<br />
<br />
It is also possible that a certain (channel-related) command doesn't work because you don't have the appropriate rights on that channel. For instance, if you aren't an operator, you can't /kick people off a channel. Or if you aren't an IRC Server Operator, you can't /kill someone off a server. Also, normal AOPs can't add people to the ChanServ AKick list for instance. Usually the message you get back from the server, will indicate this.<br />
<br />
== Can I become an operator in your Chat4All channels? ==<br />
Operators for our own rooms are appointed by invitation only. To become an operator in someone else's room, you will have to ask there. However, generally asking to become an operator (generally known as 'op-begging') somewhere is considered rude, and may result in getting kicked, or even banned from that chatroom.<br />
<br />
== Can I become an IRC-Operator or NetAdmin on Chat4All? == <br />
No, and people who ask (or even beg) to become an IRC Operator will not even be considered in case such position comes available. IRCOps are considered by invitation only. To become one, you will need to positively catch our attention; be friendly, helpful to others and be knowledgeable of the workings of IRC and our network in particular. And even then there is no guarantee you will be asked. Just have a good time, enjoy the chat.<br />
<br />
== Can I advertise my chatroom on your network? ==<br />
Definitely not.<br />
Advertising your chatroom in other chatrooms on our network is considered rude and thus not allowed.<br />
Would you want others to advertise their chatrooms inside your chatroom? Most likely not.<br />
<br />
However, we do have one exception to this rule: our channel [irc://irc.chat4all.org/chat4all #chat4all].<br />
This channel is, to a certain extent, created specifically for promotion of your own channel.<br />
<br />
== Can I advertise my IRC server or network on your network? ==<br />
'''Definitely not!'''<br />
If you own an IRC server, or you are a staff member on another IRC server/network and you advertise your services on our network, we will consider this spam and you will risk being permanently banned from our network and have your network's addresses [[Spamfilter|spamfiltered]] (blocked/banned).<br />
<br />
== Can I link to your network? ==<br />
If you run a server with its own userbase on a stable dedicated (Linux) server, VPS or shell, and have an IP of your own, you can try opening a support ticket on our [http://support.chat4all.net support portal]. Please note that you'd be required to use our services, and will not be able to take your network name with you. Should a link be accepted, you'd become part of the Chat4All network. If you run a Windows server, or your server is running from your home connection, you need not apply.<br />
<br />
= Security related questions =<br />
<br />
== My firewall software shows an alert every time I enter your network. Why is that? ==<br />
To keep our network clean of possible hackers, we check certain ports when a client connects to our network. These ports are usually used by people who use (open) proxies to enter the chat through someone else's computer without that person knowing it. People who have these open ports will not be allowed on our network. The alert is harmless when it comes from one of our IRC server addresses: <br />
* 188.138.95.217 (our European eu.chat4all.org server) <br />
* 69.64.52.243 (our American us.chat4all.org server).<br />
<br />
== It takes minutes to get connected, why is that? ==<br />
You are probably behind a router or a firewall, which is blocking the TCP 113 port which is used for [[IdentD|IdentDaemons]]. Open/forward this port in your router/firewall (visit portforward.com to find out how to do this for your router/firewall) and you'll find that the access time is vastly improved and your ident will no longer be prefixed with a ~.<br />
<br />
== How can I hide my IP or hostname? ==<br />
We already mask your IP/Hostname to a certain extent by masking the last octet/part.<br />
However, for registered users we also provide custom hostmasks through a [[Vhost|Virtual/Vanity Host]], also known as a Vhost. <br />
Visit the [[vhost]] page for a detailed explanation and [[Vhost#How_to_request|how to request a vhost]].<br />
<br />
Keep in mind that you (and the IRC ''Server'' [[Staff]]) will still be able to see your IP in a /whois on yourself in the 'connecting from' response, however other users can't.<br />
<br />
== Can you read my private messages? ==<br />
No we can't.<br />
Even though regular IRC private messages are send to/from the IRC server, we cannot, ''and will not'' read them.<br />
Doing this would be a breach of privacy which is not only unethical, in some countries it is even illegal.<br />
We do however use software that automatically blocks messages that contain spamfiltered entries, such as virus spam and exploit attempts. This however is not used to eavesdrop on your conversations.<br />
<br />
If you want to be sure your conversations can't be eavesdropped at all, we advise connecting through our SSL port, and only starting private conversations with users that also are on a 'secure connection'. This should enforce end-to-end SSL encryption of your conversation.<br />
<br />
An alternative would be to use DCC CHAT, which will only use the server to initiate a DCC CHAT session and after which the rest of the DCC CHAT session will go via a peer-to-peer connection.<br />
However, note that in this case the security of your conversation lies without our scope, and without encryption (such as SSL or OTR (Off-The-Record) plugin for your IRC client), anyone between your connection and your conversation partner, such as your ISP, could ''theoretically'' eavesdrop the conversation.<br />
<br />
To recap: Chat4All staff will not/cannot read your private conversations, nor can they follow conversations in rooms they are not present. <br />
However if you need an improved sense of security, we advise you to connect to our SSL port to enable SSL encryption when possible (such as a PM with another SSL-enabled user, or in a +Z channel).<br />
Additional security, sometimes at the cost of convenience/compatibility, can be obtained by using client-side encryption plugins such as [http://www.cypherpunks.ca/otr/ OTR]. <br />
For instance [http://irssi-otr.tuxfamily.org/ OTR for irssi], [http://wiki.flashtux.org/wiki/WeeChat/irc-otr for weechat], [http://git.tuxfamily.org/irssiotr/irssiotr.git?p=gitroot/irssiotr/irssiotr.git;a=blob_plain;f=README.xchat;hb=HEAD for XChat], or [http://www.cypherpunks.ca/otr/#downloads for Pidgin]. <br />
<br />
= User related questions =<br />
<br />
== Why haven't I received a confirmation mail even though I registered through NickServ? ==<br />
Make sure you enter the correct e-mail address before you finish your nickname registration. Also check to see if your mailbox isn't full. Finally, nowadays many people (and ISP's) have spam filters in place which can error in detecting what is spam or not. Check to see if your spam filter is not set too high or if your registration/confirmation e-mail has ended up in your junk/spambox. Especially yahoo addresses seem to have problems receiving our confirmation e-mails.<br />
<br />
If you still don't receive a confirmation mail, contact a Chat4All Services Operator. They can drop your registration request, so you can try with a different e-mailaddress, or possibly see on the server what the problem is.<br />
<br />
== Why doesn't the NickServ confirmation code work? ==<br />
When you register your nickname through NickServ, you get an e-mail with a confirmation code<br />
The E-mail will look somewhat like this:<br />
<br />
'''Subject:''' Nickname Registration (YourNickname)<br />
'''From:''' registration (AT) chat4all (DOT) org<br />
'''Content:'''<br />
----<br />
Hi,<br /><br />
You have requested to register the following nickname YourNickname.<br /><br />
Please type " ''/msg NickServ confirm 50m3c0d3h3r3'' " to complete registration.<br /><br />
If you don't know why this mail is sent to you, please ignore it silently.<br /><br />
PLEASE DON'T ANSWER TO THIS MAIL!<br /><br />
chat4all administrators.<br /><br />
<br />
of course the confirmation code will be different ;)<br /><br />
So, just follow the instructions, copy the entire line<br />
''/msg NickServ confirm 50m3c0d3h3r3''<br />
to your chatwindow to confirm your registration.<br />
<br />
You should now get a Notice-Message from NickServ again, this time stating that the registration has been completed:<br />
NickServ : Nickname ''YourNickname'' registered under your account: ''*your@*.host.name''<br />
NickServ : Your password is ''YourPassword'' - remember this for later use.<br />
<br />
If, however, you get a different message, stating that the giving confirmation code was incorrect, then you should check for errors in your typing; perhaps you misjudged a ''zero'' ''(0)'' for an'' 'O'-character '' or a capital ''i'' for a lowercase ''L''. The code is case-sensitive.<br /><br />
The best way to prevent typos is, to select the line from your E-mail, copy it (''by holding down the CTRL-key and pressing the 'c'-key''), and paste it in your chatwindow (''by holding down the CTRL-key again and pressing the 'v'-key'').<br />
<br />
Also make sure you are not copying the double quotes that are around the confirmation line. Commands always start with a '''/'''<br />
<br />
== User x is no longer online, can I still leave a message? ==<br />
If both you, and the person you want to leave a message for, are registered through NickServ, you can use our MemoServ services bot to send a message:<br />
''/MEMOSERV SEND recipientNickname Your message goes here.''<br />
<br />
For instance, if you want to send the user JohnnyExample the message ''"Hei, shame we missed each other online. Can you give me a call when you get this?"'', then type:<br />
''/MEMOSERV SEND JohnnyExample Hei, shame we missed each other online. Can you give me a call when you get this?''<br />
<br />
When JohnnyExample comes online, he'll get a notice from MemoServ that he has a new message waiting. He can then read this message with:<br />
''/MEMOSERV READ NEW''<br />
<br />
Note: you can only send to registered users, and you need to be identified for a registered nickname as well.<br />
<br />
== Why does my nick keep changing to Chat4All_124354? ==<br />
You (or someone else) has registered that nickname and enabled the [[NickServ_Kill_Setting|KILL feature]]. The KILL feature will automatically change the nickname to Chat4All_ followed by a random number when a user does not [[Identify|Identify for that nickname]] within 20 or 60 seconds (depending on the KILL setting).<br />
<br />
If it wasn't you who registered that nickname, then you should pick a different nickname instead. <br />
If you had registered (and confirmed) that nickname within the last 28 days, you should [[Identify|remember to identify for your nickname]] with:<br />
''/NICKSERV IDENTIFY replaceWithYourPassword''<br />
<br />
== Why am I no longer registered? ==<br />
Your nickname will automatically expire if [[Identify|you haven't identified for it in the past 28 days]].<br />
<br />
Your nickname will also be unregistered if you use the<br />
''/NICKSERV DROP''<br />
command.<br />
If you are sure that you identified in the past 28 days, and that you haven't manually dropped your nickname, please open a support ticket on our [http://support.chat4all.net support portal], explaining your problem and including your nickname, your IP and, if you remember, when you registered your nickname. (You can maybe find your confirmation e-mail for this).<br />
<br />
== How can I unregister my nickname? ==<br />
If you no longer want your nickname and e-mail address registered at Chat4All, you can manually drop your nickname yourself with the following command:<br />
''/NICKSERV DROP''<br />
Note that you first need to [[Identify|identify for your nickname]]. If you can't remember your password, as a Chat4All services operator to have it send to the e-mailaddress linked to the NickServ account with the SENDPASS command.<br />
<br />
== How many nicknames may I register? ==<br />
You may register 1 (master/main) nicknames per e-mail address. Should you need multiple nicknames, then you can group up to 4 more nicknames to the main nickname using the NickServ Group command:<br />
''/NICKSERV GROUP replaceWithMainNickname replaceWithMainNickname'sPassword''<br />
For instance, if you have already registered the nickname MeatPie with the password '0hs0juic3y!' and you want to group/link the nickname BlueBerryPie to it, you first do:<br />
''/NICK BlueBerryPie''<br />
To make BlueBerryPie your currently active nickname, and then you enter:<br />
''/NICKSERV GROUP MeatPie 0hs0juic3y!''<br />
<br />
So, per e-mail address you can have up to 5 registered nicknames through the use of the NickServ GROUP command. Please note though, that every single nickname in your group needs to be identified for at least once every 28 days. This is to prevent people from hogging too many nicknames and then not using them anymore.<br />
<br />
== Someone is using my registered nickname. How can I get it back? ==<br />
If your nickname has not been dropped by NickServ, you can 'force a nickchange' on the the user who is using your nickname illegally by issuing the RECOVER command. This will change the other person's nickname to Chat4All_12345 (where 12345 is a random number). The services will then put a temporary hold on your nickname, so the other person can't quickly change their nickname back to it again. You need to drop this hold with the RELEASE command and then /NICK to it yourself. So, to recap, if your nickname is ''TheRealJohnny'', and your password is ''H3r3sJ0nny'' and someone else is using your nickname, you can to use the following commands:<br />
''/NICKSERV RECOVER TheRealJohnny H3r3sJ0nny''<br />
To recover the nickname. Followed by:<br />
''/NICKSERV RELEASE TheRealJohnny H3r3sJ0nny''<br />
to release the hold the services have on them. Quickly followed by:<br />
''/NICK TheRealJohnny''<br />
to change your nickname to TheRealJohnny. Finally you need to identify for your nickname with:<br />
''/NICKSERV IDENTIFY H3r3sJ0nny''<br />
<br />
It is also possible that you lost your connection. When you get back on the server, you may find that your nick is still in use. The server usually notices this a bit late, resulting in a socalled 'ghost connection'. You can remove your ghost by issuing the GHOST command:<br />
''/NICKSERV GHOST replaceWithTheGhostNickname replaceWithYourNickServPassword''<br />
So, for instance if your ghost connection TheRealJohnny (registered with password ''H3r3sJ0nny'') is still active, you have to use the following commands:<br />
''/NICKSERV GHOST TheRealJohnny H3r3sJ0nny''<br />
to terminate the ghost connection. Followed by:<br />
''/NICK TheRealJohnny''<br />
to change your nickname to TheRealJohnny. Finally you need to identify for your nickname with:<br />
''/NICKSERV IDENTIFY H3r3sJ0nny''<br />
<br />
Note that it is very impolite to GHOST a real other user who is using your nickname. Use the RECOVER command instead then.<br />
<br />
If that did not work, then it is likely that your nickname was dropped because you have not authenticated to NickServ within the set time of 28 days. You can then try to re-register it as soon the person who is using it now quits. If he registered it, then there is nothing else you (or we) can/will do.<br />
<br />
<br />
= Website and Applet questions =<br />
<br />
== Why can your applet be used free of charge? ==<br />
Other applets, such as [http://www.javirc.com www.javirc.com] are usually not free of charge. <br />
Our chatnetwork offers server side access. You can access our network with different kinds of client side software. That software is not created by us, and thus the creator of that software is free to ask money for it. <br />
However there are for example previous versions of javirc available which are less pretty, yet free. On the other hand, we do offer a [http://www.chat4all.net/eng_homepage.html webchat through our site]. Also, free of charge.<br />
<br />
== Why does the applet show 2 more unrelated channels in the dropdown? ==<br />
If you are chatting with us through one of our applets on a website, you might (incorrectly) think that all channels belong to that website. However, the channel that belongs to your website is just one of the many chatrooms that the Chat4All IRC Network hosts, most of them belonging to all sorts of different communities.<br />
<br />
Since some of these chatrooms that belong to websites are usually empty, we also list Chat4All's main channel, #lounge, in the channel dropdown list at the top of the applet, so these people will have an active channel to find to talk in. However, not all community websites make it clear that that channel (and others) does not belong to their website.<br />
<br />
For the same reason we also list our technical (IRC) Support channel #help in that list, so people know where they can ask their (technical/IRC-related) questions. Please note that we cannot help you in #help with questions regarding the game or website you are chatting from.<br />
<br />
<br />
== Do you offer channel and network statistics I can use on my website? ==<br />
You can check [http://statistics.chat4all.net/ our Denora stats] for the entire network and public channels.<br />
<br />
== How do I add my chatroom to my website? ==<br />
=== Our webclients ===<br />
At the moment we offer 3 different kinds of chat 'applets'<br />
* [[#Java Applet|Java Applet]] our implementation of JPilot's java applet<br />
* [[#Flash Chat|Flash chat]] our implementation of the LightIRC flash client<br />
* [[#Webchat|Our AJAX webchat]], which uses our fork of qwebirc, based on html, css and AJAX technologies.<br />
<br />
==== Flash Chat ====<br />
This is our main alternative to the old Java applet. Our Flash chat uses the [http://www.lightirc.com/ LightIRC Flash IRC Client] to connect to the Chat4All IRC Network. Flash is more commonly available on modern operating systems than Java, and thus has a higher compatibilty. <br />
You can use our [http://chat.chat4all.net/flashgen.php Flash Chat Code Generator] to generate the HTML code to add this IRC client to your website. This generator might change in the near future though, due to updates to the LightIRC client.<br />
<br />
==== Webchat ====<br />
This is our alternative client, which uses our own fork of the [http://qwebirc.org/ qwebirc project], which is a web-based IRC client that uses HTML, CSS and AJAX techniques to connect you to IRC servers.<br />
The added benefit of this client is that it does not require outgoing IRC ports to be opened on your network, since all your traffic will go through the default HTTP port 80 (or HTTPS port 443 should be open up an HTTPS version of the webchat). <br />
This will allow people to connect to Chat4All from networks that have strict network settings, such as blocking all non-HTTP ports.<br />
<br />
To generate the code for your website, go to [http://webchat.chat4all.net/ the Chat4All Webchat] and click on the icon in the top left corner (the 2 speech balloons) and select the 'Add webchat to your site' option from the popupmenu that should appear.<br />
From there, follow the instructions and configure the appearance and settings of the client. At the end of the wizard, it will give you the HTML sourcecode for the iframe you can place on your website.<br />
<br />
==== Java Applet ====<br />
This Java applet will slowly be phased out as it is no longer being updated, and the Java interface has several issues with modern browsers, such as popups being blocked, or security confirmation requests not being shown.<br />
However, for now you can still generate the HTML code to put it on your website, using the [http://www.chat4all.be/eng_homepage.html Java applet code generator].<br />
We would recommend using the [[#Flash Chat|Flash]] or [[#Webchat|Webchat]] instead though, since they have a higher compatibility with modern browsers.<br />
<br />
=== Third Party Webclients ===<br />
There are also some third party webclients available. Here are some alternatives:<br />
* [https://widgetmanager.mibbit.com/ Mibbit], another AJAX-based webclient that offers widgets for your site, and a web-client and an iPhone app.<br />
* [http://www.wsirc.com/ wsIrc], another AJAX-based webclient. They also offer a [http://wsirc.mobi/ mobile version].<br />
* [http://www.pjirc.com/ PJIRC], another Java applet<br />
<br />
<br />
= Channel related questions =<br />
<br />
== Why is the chatroom empty? ==<br />
If the chatroom belongs to a website, it is possible that the chatroom just isn't that popular yet. It often happens that people join a chatroom, see that no-one is there, and leave again, while perhaps 5 minutes later another user does exactly the same thing.<br />
You could suggest to the founder of the channel/website to organise chatevenings. Have a fixed time on which users of the site can get together to have a live chat. You can also start filling the room by always staying connected and in the room and be have a notification when there is activity in the room. If more people do the same, the room might start filling up quickly.<br />
<br />
== Why is nobody talking? ==<br />
Don't panic, you aren't being ignored, not everyone watches their screen at all times. Some even leave their computers on whilst away.<br />
Give it 10-20 minutes or so and somebody will usually respond; otherwise perhaps try again at another time. Highlighting someone's nickname once, might also get some attention. (However, don't overdo this, because some people might not like being highlighted repeatedly).<br />
<br />
== How can I add an operator to my channel? ==<br />
Please read our [[XOP|ChanServ xOP article]] and the [[XOP#How_to_add|How to Add section]] in particular.<br />
<br />
== Why am I not getting an @ in my channel? ==<br />
<br />
=== Why is there an ~ sign instead of an @ in front of my name? ===<br />
If you are getting an ~ sign in front of your name, it means you are recognised as the Founder of the channel instead. This is a higher rank than a regular operator (@). You still have all the powers that you would have as an Operator (@).<br />
In addition to this, you have other rights, such as changing the AOP list.<br />
You can read some more about the Founder status on [http://www.chat4all.net/manual/manual-chan_eng.html#REGISTER our ChanServ#Register manual page].<br />
<br />
You can also, in chat, do:<br />
/CHANSERV HELP<br />
to get a list of the commands available to you through ChanServ as founder.<br />
<br />
The full list of the signs that can appear before a user's nickname is as follows:<br />
~ Founder of the Channel<br />
& User with +a (Admin/SOP) status<br />
@ Regular Operator <br />
% Half-Operator<br />
+ Voiced user<br />
<br />
=== ChanServ doesn't recognise me on my channel ===<br />
If ChanServ doesn't recognise you at all on your channel (you are not getting Voiced/VOP (+), Operator/AOP (@), SOP (%) or Founder (~) status) even though you are certain you have registered your nickname, and are on the channel's ACCESS list (or registered the channel), then you might have [[Identify|forgotten to identify for your nickname]]. Please identify for your nickname with:<br />
''/NICKSERV IDENTIFY replaceWithYourPassword''<br />
<br />
If you still don't get the appropriate access rights, and the channel is registered (the channel's modes should include +r), then contact an IRC Staff member in our support room, or open a support ticket on our [http://support.chat4all.net support portal].<br />
<br />
== Why is my chatroom no longer registered? ==<br />
A Channel registration can be (automatically) dropped for several reasons:<br />
<br />
'''The nickname of the owner expired'''<br />
ChanServ requires that a channel at all times has a Founder.<br />
Therefor, should the NickServ registration of the Founder be dropped (for instance because [[Identify|they haven't identified for their nickname]] within the past 28 days, or because they manually dropped their nickname), ChanServ will check if a Successor has been set for the channel. If there is no Successor set (or the nickname of the Successor is no longer registered either), then the channel will also automatically be dropped/unregistered.<br />
<br />
'''The Founder/Owner hasn't entered their channel, nor used ChanServ IDENTIFY, in the past 28 days.'''<br />
To prevent channels from being unmanaged, a channel needs to be kept active by its founder. The Founder needs to visit their channel at least once every 28 days while [[Identify|being identified]] for the Founder nickname, or use the ''/CHANSERV IDENTIFY'' command to identify as founder of the channel. If the founder does not show this kind of activity, the channel will automatically transfer Founder-status to the Successor. If no successor with a registered nickname is set, then the ChanServ registration will automatically be dropped.<br />
<br />
'''The Founder used the DROP command'''<br />
A channel can be manually unregistered/dropped with the ChanServ DROP command. If you want to drop your channel registration, make sure you are identified for your Founder nickname, and issue:<br />
''/CHANSERV DROP #replaceWithYourChannelname''<br />
<br />
In rare situations your channel might have been dropped by the Chat4All Network staff due to abuse. However, you probably would have been notified already in that situation.<br />
<br />
If you are certain your channel was registered and now it isn't anymore, and you still don't know why your channel is no longer registered, then please contact a Services Operator in our support channel, or by opening a support ticket on our [http://support.chat4all.net support portal]<br />
<br />
== How can I have ChanServ auto-voice everyone on my channel? ==<br />
If you are using the ACCESS LEVELS system instead of the xOP systeem, then you can have your chatters be autovoiced by:<br />
* setting the SECURE option to OFF:<br />
''/CHANSERV SET #replaceWithYourChannelname SECURE OFF''<br />
* and setting the AUTOVOICE level to 0 or -1:<br />
''/CHANSERV LEVELS #replaceWithYourChannelname SET AUTOVOICE -1''<br />
<br />
== How many chatrooms may I register on chat4all? ==<br />
A NickServ registration may register up to 10 chatrooms. This should be more than enough for most people.<br />
<br />
== How many chatrooms may I join on chat4all? ==<br />
You can be in a maximum of 15 channels per connection. This should be more than enough for most people.<br />
<br />
== How do I get a bot on my channel? ==<br />
Chat4All only offers ChanServ/BotServ aliases. We have a Wiki article that explains [[Bot#Request_a_Bot|how to request a BotServ Bot]].<br />
We do not offer bots with custom features though. Should you need one, you need to run it yourself on your own internet connection, and make sure the bot is using usermode +B to identify it is a user bot.<br />
Please note that your bot needs to offer a service to your users. We do not condone fake bots just to increase your channel's usercount.<br />
Also, we do not allow bots that have a malicious purpose, such as (D)DoS'ing hosts, spreading credit card information or other malicious/illegal purposes.<br />
<br />
== Can I get a game/statistics bot inside my chatroom? ==<br />
You are (as room owner) allowed to have 1 bot (outside chanserv) inside your chatroom. This may of course be a game/statistics bot, and it may be using different software. However, this is not software supplied by us. We suggest searching the internet for software like eggdrop, or scripts that can compliment a mIRC installation.</div>

<p>Adonis: Protected "FAQ" ([edit=sysop] (indefinite) [move=sysop] (indefinite))</p>
<hr />
<div>On this page you can find answers to questions you may have. If the answer to your question is not listed here, then please open a support ticket on our [http://support.chat4all.net support portal] or ask it in our support channel.<br />
<br />
=Generic Questions=<br />
<br />
== Is having a chatroom at Chat4All free? ==<br />
Yes, having a chatroom at the Chat4All IRC Network is absolutely free!<br />
You don't even have to place a banner or put up with advertising. <br />
However, having a banner or a short line on your website, indicating that you have your chatroom on our network is more than appreciated. :-)<br />
<br />
== Why don't my commands work? ==<br />
Usually this is because of a syntax error. Check to see if you have typed the command as required. Also make sure that, in case a chatroom name is needed, the channel name starts with a # (hash-sign).<br />
<br />
Also make sure that you have used a space between the actual command and the channelname, and make sure you are not using any formatting codes like colours and bold inside the commands. The first character on the line has to be the '''/''' (forward-slash).<br />
<br />
Finally, if you still have problems with sending commands to our services, you can try opening a private window for the service you need to send a command to, and enter just the command message to it there. For instance, if the command you need to execute is:<br />
''/msg ChanServ HELP''<br />
You can try opening a query window with ChanServ (''/query ChanServ'') and typing:<br />
''HELP''<br />
in that query window.<br />
<br />
== Can I become an operator in your Chat4All channels? ==<br />
Operators for our own rooms are appointed by invitation only. To become an operator in someone else's room, you will have to ask there. However, generally asking to become an operator (generally known as 'op-begging') somewhere is considered rude, and may result in getting kicked, or even banned from that chatroom.<br />
<br />
== Can I become an IRC-Operator or NetAdmin on Chat4All? == <br />
No, and people who ask (or even beg) to become an IRC Operator will not even be considered in case such position comes available. IRCOps are considered by invitation only. To become one, you will need to positively catch our attention; be friendly, helpful to others and be knowledgeable of the workings of IRC and our network in particular. And even then there is no guarantee you will be asked. Just have a good time, enjoy the chat.<br />
<br />
== Can I advertise my chatroom on your network? ==<br />
Definitely not.<br />
Advertising your chatroom in other chatrooms on our network is considered rude and thus not allowed.<br />
Would you want others to advertise their chatrooms inside your chatroom? Most likely not.<br />
<br />
However, we do have one exception to this rule: our channel [irc://irc.chat4all.org/chat4all #chat4all].<br />
This channel is, to a certain extent, created specifically for promotion of your own channel.<br />
<br />
== Can I advertise my IRC server or network on your network? ==<br />
'''Definitely not!'''<br />
If you own an IRC server, or you are a staff member on another IRC server/network and you advertise your services on our network, we will consider this spam and you will risk being permanently banned from our network and have your network's addresses spamfiltered.<br />
<br />
== Can I link to your network? ==<br />
If you run a server with its own userbase on a stable dedicated (Linux) server, VPS or shell, and have an IP of your own, you can try opening a support ticket on our [http://support.chat4all.net support portal]. Please note that you'd be required to use our services, and will not be able to take your network name with you. Should a link be accepted, you'd become part of the Chat4All network. If you run a Windows server, or your server is running from your home connection, you need not apply.<br />
<br />
= Security related questions =<br />
<br />
== My firewall software shows an alert every time I enter your network. Why is that? ==<br />
To keep our network clean of possible hackers, we check certain ports when a client connects to our network. These ports are usually used by people who use (open) proxies to enter the chat through someone else's computer without that person knowing it. People who have these open ports will not be allowed on our network. The alert is harmless when it comes from one of our IRC server addresses: <br />
* 217.172.170.241 (our European eu.chat4all.org server) <br />
* 69.64.52.243 (our American us.chat4all.org server).<br />
<br />
== It takes minutes to get connected, why is that? ==<br />
You are probably behind a router or a firewall, which is blocking the TCP 113 port which is used for [[IdentD|IdentDaemons]]. Open/forward this port in your router/firewall (visit portforward.com to find out how to do this for your router/firewall) and you'll find that the access time is vastly improved and your ident will no longer be prefixed with a ~.<br />
<br />
== How can I hide my IP or hostname? ==<br />
We already mask your IP/Hostname to a certain extent by masking the last octet/part.<br />
However, for registered users we also provide custom hostmasks through a [[Vhost|Virtual/Vanity Host]], also known as a Vhost. <br />
Visit the [[vhost]] page for a detailed explanation and [[Vhost#How_to_request|how to request a vhost]].<br />
<br />
== Can you read my private messages? ==<br />
No we can't.<br />
Even though regular IRC private messages are send to/from the IRC server, we cannot, ''and will not'' read them.<br />
Doing this would be a breach of privacy which is not only unethical, in some countries it is even illegal.<br />
We do however use software that automatically blocks messages that contain spamfiltered entries, such as virus spam and exploit attempts. This however is not used to eavesdrop on your conversations.<br />
<br />
If you want to be sure your conversations can't be eavesdropped at all, we advise connecting through our SSL port, and only starting private conversations with users that also are on a 'secure connection'. This should enforce end-to-end SSL encryption of your conversation.<br />
<br />
An alternative would be to use DCC CHAT, which will only use the server to initiate a DCC CHAT session and after which the rest of the DCC CHAT session will go via a peer-to-peer connection.<br />
However, note that in this case the security of your conversation lies without our scope, and without encryption (such as SSL or OTR (Off-The-Record) plugin for your IRC client), anyone between your connection and your conversation partner, such as your ISP, could ''theoretically'' eavesdrop the conversation.<br />
<br />
To recap: Chat4All staff will not/cannot read your private conversations, nor can they follow conversations in rooms they are not present. <br />
However if you need an improved sense of security, we advise you to connect to our SSL port to enable SSL encryption when possible (such as a PM with another SSL-enabled user, or in a +Z channel).<br />
Additional security, sometimes at the cost of convenience/compatibility, can be obtained by using client-side encryption plugins such as [http://www.cypherpunks.ca/otr/ OTR]. <br />
For instance [http://irssi-otr.tuxfamily.org/ OTR for irssi], [http://wiki.flashtux.org/wiki/WeeChat/irc-otr for weechat], [http://git.tuxfamily.org/irssiotr/irssiotr.git?p=gitroot/irssiotr/irssiotr.git;a=blob_plain;f=README.xchat;hb=HEAD for XChat], or [http://www.cypherpunks.ca/otr/#downloads for Pidgin]. <br />
<br />
= User related questions =<br />
<br />
== Why haven't I received a confirmation mail even though I registered through NickServ? ==<br />
Make sure you enter the correct e-mail address before you finish your nickname registration. Also check to see if your mailbox isn't full. Finally, nowadays many people (and ISP's) have spam filters in place which can error in detecting what is spam or not. Check to see if your spam filter is not set too high or if your registration/confirmation e-mail has ended up in your junk/spambox. Especially yahoo addresses seem to have problems receiving our confirmation e-mails.<br />
<br />
If you still don't receive a confirmation mail, contact a Chat4All Services Operator. They can drop your registration request, so you can try with a different e-mailaddress, or possibly see on the server what the problem is.<br />
<br />
== Why doesn't the NickServ confirmation code work? ==<br />
When you register your nickname through NickServ, you get an e-mail with a confirmation code<br />
The E-mail will look somewhat like this:<br />
<br />
'''Subject:''' Nickname Registration (YourNickname)<br />
'''From:''' registration (AT) chat4all (DOT) org<br />
'''Content:'''<br />
----<br />
Hi,<br /><br />
You have requested to register the following nickname YourNickname.<br /><br />
Please type " ''/msg NickServ confirm 50m3c0d3h3r3'' " to complete registration.<br /><br />
If you don't know why this mail is sent to you, please ignore it silently.<br /><br />
PLEASE DON'T ANSWER TO THIS MAIL!<br /><br />
chat4all administrators.<br /><br />
<br />
of course the confirmation code will be different ;)<br /><br />
So, just follow the instructions, copy the entire line<br />
''/msg NickServ confirm 50m3c0d3h3r3''<br />
to your chatwindow to confirm your registration.<br />
<br />
You should now get a Notice-Message from NickServ again, this time stating that the registration has been completed:<br />
NickServ : Nickname ''YourNickname'' registered under your account: ''*your@*.host.name''<br />
NickServ : Your password is ''YourPassword'' - remember this for later use.<br />
<br />
If, however, you get a different message, stating that the giving confirmation code was incorrect, then you should check for errors in your typing; perhaps you misjudged a ''zero'' ''(0)'' for an'' 'O'-character '' or a capital ''i'' for a lowercase ''L''. The code is case-sensitive.<br /><br />
The best way to prevent typos is, to select the line from your E-mail, copy it (''by holding down the CTRL-key and pressing the 'c'-key''), and paste it in your chatwindow (''by holding down the CTRL-key again and pressing the 'v'-key'').<br />
<br />
Also make sure you are not copying the double quotes that are around the confirmation line. Commands always start with a '''/'''<br />
<br />
== User x is no longer online, can I still leave a message? ==<br />
If both you, and the person you want to leave a message for, are registered through NickServ, you can use our MemoServ services bot to send a message:<br />
''/MEMOSERV SEND recipientNickname Your message goes here.''<br />
<br />
For instance, if you want to send the user JohnnyExample the message ''"Hei, shame we missed each other online. Can you give me a call when you get this?"'', then type:<br />
''/MEMOSERV SEND JohnnyExample Hei, shame we missed each other online. Can you give me a call when you get this?''<br />
<br />
When JohnnyExample comes online, he'll get a notice from MemoServ that he has a new message waiting. He can then read this message with:<br />
''/MEMOSERV READ NEW''<br />
<br />
Note: you can only send to registered users, and you need to be identified for a registered nickname as well.<br />
<br />
== Why does my nick keep changing to Chat4All_124354? ==<br />
You (or someone else) has registered that nickname and enabled the [[NickServ_Kill_Setting|KILL feature]]. The KILL feature will automatically change the nickname to Chat4All_ followed by a random number when a user does not [[Identify|Identify for that nickname]] within 20 or 60 seconds (depending on the KILL setting).<br />
<br />
If it wasn't you who registered that nickname, then you should pick a different nickname instead. <br />
If you had registered (and confirmed) that nickname within the last 28 days, you should [[Identify|remember to identify for your nickname]] with:<br />
''/NICKSERV IDENTIFY replaceWithYourPassword''<br />
<br />
== Why am I no longer registered? ==<br />
Your nickname will automatically expire if [[Identify|you haven't identified for it in the past 28 days]].<br />
<br />
Your nickname will also be unregistered if you use the<br />
''/NICKSERV DROP''<br />
command.<br />
If you are sure that you identified in the past 28 days, and that you haven't manually dropped your nickname, please open a support ticket on our [http://support.chat4all.net support portal], explaining your problem and including your nickname, your IP and, if you remember, when you registered your nickname. (You can maybe find your confirmation e-mail for this).<br />
<br />
== How can I unregister my nickname? ==<br />
If you no longer want your nickname and e-mailaddress registered at Chat4All, you can manually drop your nickname yourself with the following command:<br />
''/NICKSERV DROP''<br />
Note that you first need to [[Identify|identify for your nickname]]. If you can't remember your password, as a Chat4All services operator to have it send to the e-mailaddress linked to the NickServ account with the SENDPASS command.<br />
<br />
== How many nicknames may I register? ==<br />
You may register 1 (master/main) nicknames per e-mail address. Should you need multiple nicknames, then you can group up to 4 more nicknames to the main nickname using the NickServ Group command:<br />
''/NICKSERV GROUP replaceWithMainNickname replaceWithMainNickname'sPassword''<br />
For instance, if you have already registered the nickname MeatPie with the password '0hs0juic3y!' and you want to group/link the nickname BlueBerryPie to it, you first do:<br />
''/NICK BlueBerryPie''<br />
To make BlueBerryPie your currently active nickname, and then you enter:<br />
''/NICKSERV GROUP MeatPie 0hs0juic3y!''<br />
<br />
So, per e-mail address you can have up to 5 registered nicknames through the use of the NickServ GROUP command. Please note though, that every single nickname in your group needs to be identified for at least once every 28 days. This is to prevent people from hogging too many nicknames and then not using them anymore.<br />
<br />
== Someone is using my registered nickname. How can I get it back? ==<br />
If your nickname has not been dropped by NickServ, you can 'force a nickchange' on the the user who is using your nickname illegally by issuing the RECOVER command. This will change the other person's nickname to Chat4All_12345 (where 12345 is a random number). The services will then put a temporary hold on your nickname, so the other person can't quickly change their nickname back to it again. You need to drop this hold with the RELEASE command and then /NICK to it yourself. So, to recap, if your nickname is ''TheRealJohnny'', and your password is ''H3r3sJ0nny'' and someone else is using your nickname, you can to use the following commands:<br />
''/NICKSERV RECOVER TheRealJohnny H3r3sJ0nny''<br />
To recover the nickname. Followed by:<br />
''/NICKSERV RELEASE TheRealJohnny H3r3sJ0nny''<br />
to release the hold the services have on them. Quickly followed by:<br />
''/NICK TheRealJohnny''<br />
to change your nickname to TheRealJohnny. Finally you need to identify for your nickname with:<br />
''/NICKSERV IDENTIFY H3r3sJ0nny''<br />
<br />
It is also possible that you lost your connection. When you get back on the server, you may find that your nick is still in use. The server usually notices this a bit late, resulting in a socalled 'ghost connection'. You can remove your ghost by issuing the GHOST command:<br />
''/NICKSERV GHOST replaceWithTheGhostNickname replaceWithYourNickServPassword''<br />
So, for instance if your ghost connection TheRealJohnny (registered with password ''H3r3sJ0nny'') is still active, you have to use the following commands:<br />
''/NICKSERV GHOST TheRealJohnny H3r3sJ0nny''<br />
to terminate the ghost connection. Followed by:<br />
''/NICK TheRealJohnny''<br />
to change your nickname to TheRealJohnny. Finally you need to identify for your nickname with:<br />
''/NICKSERV IDENTIFY H3r3sJ0nny''<br />
<br />
Note that it is very impolite to GHOST a real other user who is using your nickname. Use the RECOVER command instead then.<br />
<br />
If that did not work, then it is likely that your nickname was dropped because you have not authenticated to NickServ within the set time of 28 days. You can then try to re-register it as soon the person who is using it now quits. If he registered it, then there is nothing else you (or we) can/will do.<br />
<br />
<br />
= Website and Applet questions =<br />
<br />
== Why can your applet be used free of charge? ==<br />
Other applets, such as [http://www.javirc.com www.javirc.com] are usually not free of charge. <br />
Our chatnetwork offers server side access. You can access our network with different kinds of client side software. That software is not created by us, and thus the creator of that software is free to ask money for it. <br />
However there are for example previous versions of javirc available which are less pretty, yet free. On the other hand, we do offer a [http://www.chat4all.net/eng_homepage.html webchat through our site]. Also, free of charge.<br />
<br />
== Why does the applet show 2 more unrelated channels in the dropdown? ==<br />
If you are chatting with us through one of our applets on a website, you might (incorrectly) think that all channels belong to that website. However, the channel that belongs to your website is just one of the many chatrooms that the Chat4All IRC Network hosts, most of them belonging to all sorts of different communities.<br />
<br />
Since some of these chatrooms that belong to websites are usually empty, we also list Chat4All's main channel, #lounge, in the channel dropdown list at the top of the applet, so these people will have an active channel to find to talk in. However, not all community websites make it clear that that channel (and others) does not belong to their website.<br />
<br />
For the same reason we also list our technical (IRC) Support channel #help in that list, so people know where they can ask their (technical/IRC-related) questions. Please note that we cannot help you in #help with questions regarding the game or website you are chatting from.<br />
<br />
<br />
== Do you offer channel and network statistics I can use on my website? ==<br />
You can check [http://statistics.chat4all.net/ our Denora stats] for the entire network and public channels.<br />
<br />
== How do I add my chatroom to my website? ==<br />
=== Our webclients ===<br />
At the moment we offer 3 different kinds of chat 'applets'<br />
* [[#Java Applet|Java Applet]] our implementation of JPilot's java applet<br />
* [[#Flash Chat|Flash chat]] our implementation of the LightIRC flash client<br />
* [[#Webchat|Our AJAX webchat]], which uses our fork of qwebirc, based on html, css and AJAX technologies.<br />
<br />
==== Flash Chat ====<br />
This is our main alternative to the old Java applet. Our Flash chat uses the [http://www.lightirc.com/ LightIRC Flash IRC Client] to connect to the Chat4All IRC Network. Flash is more commonly available on modern operating systems than Java, and thus has a higher compatibilty. <br />
You can use our [http://chat.chat4all.net/flashgen.php Flash Chat Code Generator] to generate the HTML code to add this IRC client to your website. This generator might change in the near future though, due to updates to the LightIRC client.<br />
<br />
==== Webchat ====<br />
This is our alternative client, which uses our own fork of the [http://qwebirc.org/ qwebirc project], which is a web-based IRC client that uses HTML, CSS and AJAX techniques to connect you to IRC servers.<br />
The added benefit of this client is that it does not require outgoing IRC ports to be opened on your network, since all your traffic will go through the default HTTP port 80 (or HTTPS port 443 should be open up an HTTPS version of the webchat). <br />
This will allow people to connect to Chat4All from networks that have strict network settings, such as blocking all non-HTTP ports.<br />
<br />
To generate the code for your website, go to [http://webchat.chat4all.net/ the Chat4All Webchat] and click on the icon in the top left corner (the 2 speech balloons) and select the 'Add webchat to your site' option from the popupmenu that should appear.<br />
From there, follow the instructions and configure the appearance and settings of the client. At the end of the wizard, it will give you the HTML sourcecode for the iframe you can place on your website.<br />
<br />
==== Java Applet ====<br />
This Java applet will slowly be phased out as it is no longer being updated, and the Java interface has several issues with modern browsers, such as popups being blocked, or security confirmation requests not being shown.<br />
However, for now you can still generate the HTML code to put it on your website, using the [http://www.chat4all.be/eng_homepage.html Java applet code generator].<br />
We would recommend using the [[#Flash Chat|Flash]] or [[#Webchat|Webchat]] instead though, since they have a higher compatibility with modern browsers.<br />
<br />
=== Third Party Webclients ===<br />
There are also some third party webclients available. Here are some alternatives:<br />
* [https://widgetmanager.mibbit.com/ Mibbit], another AJAX-based webclient that offers widgets for your site, and a web-client and an iPhone app.<br />
* [http://www.wsirc.com/ wsIrc], another AJAX-based webclient. They also offer a [http://wsirc.mobi/ mobile version].<br />
* [http://www.pjirc.com/ PJIRC], another Java applet<br />

= Channel related questions =<br />
<br />
== How can I add an operator to my channel? ==<br />
Please read our [[XOP|ChanServ xOP article]] and the [[XOP#How_to_add|How to Add section]] in particular.<br />
<br />
== Why am I not getting an @ in my channel? ==<br />
<br />
=== Why is there an ~ sign instead of an @ in front of my name? ===<br />
If you are getting an ~ sign in front of your name, it means you are recognised as the Founder of the channel instead. This is a higher rank than a regular operator (@). You still have all the powers that you would have as an Operator (@).<br />
In addition to this, you have other rights, such as changing the AOP list.<br />
You can read some more about the Founder status on [http://www.chat4all.net/manual/manual-chan_eng.html#REGISTER our ChanServ#Register manual page].<br />
<br />
You can also, in chat, do:<br />
/CHANSERV HELP<br />
to get a list of the commands available to you through ChanServ as founder.<br />
<br />
The full list of the signs that can appear before a user's nickname is as follows:<br />
~ Founder of the Channel<br />
& User with +a (Admin/SOP) status<br />
@ Regular Operator <br />
% Half-Operator<br />
+ Voiced user<br />
<br />
=== ChanServ doesn't recognise me on my channel ===<br />
If ChanServ doesn't recognise you at all on your channel (you are not getting Voiced/VOP (+), Operator/AOP (@), SOP (%) or Founder (~) status) even though you are certain you have registered your nickname, and are on the channel's ACCESS list (or registered the channel), then you might have [[Identify|forgotten to identify for your nickname]]. Please identify for your nickname with:<br />
''/NICKSERV IDENTIFY replaceWithYourPassword''<br />
<br />
If you still don't get the appropriate access rights, and the channel is registered (the channel's modes should include +r), then contact an IRC Staff member in our support room, or open a support ticket on our [http://support.chat4all.net support portal].<br />
<br />
== Why is my chatroom no longer registered? ==<br />
A Channel registration can be (automatically) dropped for several reasons:<br />
<br />
'''The nickname of the owner expired'''<br />
ChanServ requires that a channel at all times has a Founder.<br />
Therefor, should the NickServ registration of the Founder be dropped (for instance because [[Identify|they haven't identified for their nickname]] within the past 28 days, or because they manually dropped their nickname), ChanServ will check if a Successor has been set for the channel. If there is no Successor set (or the nickname of the Successor is no longer registered either), then the channel will also automatically be dropped/unregistered.<br />
<br />
'''The Founder/Owner hasn't entered their channel, nor used ChanServ IDENTIFY, in the past 28 days.'''<br />
To prevent channels from being unmanaged, a channel needs to be kept active by its founder. The Founder needs to visit their channel at least once every 28 days while [[Identify|being identified]] for the Founder nickname, or use the ''/CHANSERV IDENTIFY'' command to identify as founder of the channel. If the founder does not show this kind of activity, the channel will automatically transfer Founder-status to the Successor. If no successor with a registered nickname is set, then the ChanServ registration will automatically be dropped.<br />
<br />
'''The Founder used the DROP command'''<br />
A channel can be manually unregistered/dropped with the ChanServ DROP command. If you want to drop your channel registration, make sure you are identified for your Founder nickname, and issue:<br />
''/CHANSERV DROP #replaceWithYourChannelname''<br />
<br />
In rare situations your channel might have been dropped by the Chat4All Network staff due to abuse. However, you probably would have been notified already in that situation.<br />
<br />
If you are certain your channel was registered and now it isn't anymore, and you still don't know why your channel is no longer registered, then please contact a Services Operator in our support channel, or by opening a support ticket on our [http://support.chat4all.net support portal]<br />
<br />
== How can I have ChanServ auto-voice everyone on my channel? ==<br />
If you are using the ACCESS LEVELS system instead of the xOP systeem, then you can have your chatters be autovoiced by:<br />
* setting the SECURE option to OFF:<br />
''/CHANSERV SET #replaceWithYourChannelname SECURE OFF''<br />
* and setting the AUTOVOICE level to 0 or -1:<br />
''/CHANSERV LEVELS #replaceWithYourChannelname SET AUTOVOICE -1''<br />
<br />
== How many chatrooms may I register on chat4all? ==<br />
A NickServ registration may register up to 6 chatrooms. This should be more than enough for most people.<br />
<br />
== How do I get a bot on my channel? ==<br />
Chat4All only offers ChanServ/BotServ aliases. We have a Wiki article that explains [[Bot#Request_a_Bot|how to request a BotServ Bot]].<br />
We do not offer bots with custom features though. Should you need one, you need to run it yourself on your own internet connection, and make sure the bot is using usermode +B to identify it is a user bot.<br />
Please note that your bot needs to offer a service to your users. We do not condone fake bots just to increase your channel's usercount.<br />
Also, we do not allow bots that have a malicious purpose, such as (D)DoS'ing hosts, spreading credit card information or other malicious/illegal purposes.<br />
<br />
== Can I get a game/statistics bot inside my chatroom? ==<br />
You are (as room owner) allowed to have 1 bot (outside chanserv) inside your chatroom. This may of course be a game/statistics bot, and it may be using different software. However, this is not software supplied by us. We suggest searching the internet for software like eggdrop, or scripts that can compliment a mIRC installation.</div>

<p>Adonis: /* Our webclients */</p>
<hr />
<div>On this page you can find answers to questions you may have. If the answer to your question is not listed here, then please open a support ticket on our [http://support.chat4all.net support portal] or ask it in our support channel.<br />
<br />
=Generic Questions=<br />
<br />
== Is having a chatroom at Chat4All free? ==<br />
Yes, having a chatroom at the Chat4All IRC Network is absolutely free!<br />
You don't even have to place a banner or put up with advertising. <br />
However, having a banner or a short line on your website, indicating that you have your chatroom on our network is more than appreciated. :-)<br />
<br />
== Why don't my commands work? ==<br />
Usually this is because of a syntax error. Check to see if you have typed the command as required. Also make sure that, in case a chatroom name is needed, the channel name starts with a # (hash-sign).<br />
<br />
Also make sure that you have used a space between the actual command and the channelname, and make sure you are not using any formatting codes like colours and bold inside the commands. The first character on the line has to be the '''/''' (forward-slash).<br />
<br />
Finally, if you still have problems with sending commands to our services, you can try opening a private window for the service you need to send a command to, and enter just the command message to it there. For instance, if the command you need to execute is:<br />
''/msg ChanServ HELP''<br />
You can try opening a query window with ChanServ (''/query ChanServ'') and typing:<br />
''HELP''<br />
in that query window.<br />
<br />
== Can I become an operator in your Chat4All channels? ==<br />
Operators for our own rooms are appointed by invitation only. To become an operator in someone else's room, you will have to ask there. However, generally asking to become an operator (generally known as 'op-begging') somewhere is considered rude, and may result in getting kicked, or even banned from that chatroom.<br />
<br />
== Can I become an IRC-Operator or NetAdmin on Chat4All? == <br />
No, and people who ask (or even beg) to become an IRC Operator will not even be considered in case such position comes available. IRCOps are considered by invitation only. To become one, you will need to positively catch our attention; be friendly, helpful to others and be knowledgeable of the workings of IRC and our network in particular. And even then there is no guarantee you will be asked. Just have a good time, enjoy the chat.<br />
<br />
== Can I advertise my chatroom on your network? ==<br />
Definitely not.<br />
Advertising your chatroom in other chatrooms on our network is considered rude and thus not allowed.<br />
Would you want others to advertise their chatrooms inside your chatroom? Most likely not.<br />
<br />
However, we do have one exception to this rule: our channel [irc://irc.chat4all.org/chat4all #chat4all].<br />
This channel is, to a certain extent, created specifically for promotion of your own channel.<br />
<br />
== Can I advertise my IRC server or network on your network? ==<br />
'''Definitely not!'''<br />
If you own an IRC server, or you are a staff member on another IRC server/network and you advertise your services on our network, we will consider this spam and you will risk being permanently banned from our network and have your network's addresses spamfiltered.<br />
<br />
== Can I link to your network? ==<br />
If you run a server with its own userbase on a stable dedicated (Linux) server, VPS or shell, and have an IP of your own, you can try opening a support ticket on our [http://support.chat4all.net support portal]. Please note that you'd be required to use our services, and will not be able to take your network name with you. Should a link be accepted, you'd become part of the Chat4All network. If you run a Windows server, or your server is running from your home connection, you need not apply.<br />
<br />
= Security related questions =<br />
<br />
== My firewall software shows an alert every time I enter your network. Why is that? ==<br />
To keep our network clean of possible hackers, we check certain ports when a client connects to our network. These ports are usually used by people who use (open) proxies to enter the chat through someone else's computer without that person knowing it. People who have these open ports will not be allowed on our network. The alert is harmless when it comes from one of our IRC server addresses: <br />
* 217.172.170.241 (our European eu.chat4all.org server) <br />
* 69.64.52.243 (our American us.chat4all.org server).<br />
<br />
== It takes minutes to get connected, why is that? ==<br />
You are probably behind a router or a firewall, which is blocking the TCP 113 port which is used for [[IdentD|IdentDaemons]]. Open/forward this port in your router/firewall (visit portforward.com to find out how to do this for your router/firewall) and you'll find that the access time is vastly improved and your ident will no longer be prefixed with a ~.<br />
<br />
== How can I hide my IP or hostname? ==<br />
We already mask your IP/Hostname to a certain extent by masking the last octet/part.<br />
However, for registered users we also provide custom hostmasks through a [[Vhost|Virtual/Vanity Host]], also known as a Vhost. <br />
Visit the [[vhost]] page for a detailed explanation and [[Vhost#How_to_request|how to request a vhost]].<br />
<br />
== Can you read my private messages? ==<br />
No we can't.<br />
Even though regular IRC private messages are send to/from the IRC server, we cannot, ''and will not'' read them.<br />
Doing this would be a breach of privacy which is not only unethical, in some countries it is even illegal.<br />
We do however use software that automatically blocks messages that contain spamfiltered entries, such as virus spam and exploit attempts. This however is not used to eavesdrop on your conversations.<br />
<br />
If you want to be sure your conversations can't be eavesdropped at all, we advise connecting through our SSL port, and only starting private conversations with users that also are on a 'secure connection'. This should enforce end-to-end SSL encryption of your conversation.<br />
<br />
An alternative would be to use DCC CHAT, which will only use the server to initiate a DCC CHAT session and after which the rest of the DCC CHAT session will go via a peer-to-peer connection.<br />
However, note that in this case the security of your conversation lies without our scope, and without encryption (such as SSL or OTR (Off-The-Record) plugin for your IRC client), anyone between your connection and your conversation partner, such as your ISP, could ''theoretically'' eavesdrop the conversation.<br />
<br />
To recap: Chat4All staff will not/cannot read your private conversations, nor can they follow conversations in rooms they are not present. <br />
However if you need an improved sense of security, we advise you to connect to our SSL port to enable SSL encryption when possible (such as a PM with another SSL-enabled user, or in a +Z channel).<br />
Additional security, sometimes at the cost of convenience/compatibility, can be obtained by using client-side encryption plugins such as [http://www.cypherpunks.ca/otr/ OTR]. <br />
For instance [http://irssi-otr.tuxfamily.org/ OTR for irssi], [http://wiki.flashtux.org/wiki/WeeChat/irc-otr for weechat], [http://git.tuxfamily.org/irssiotr/irssiotr.git?p=gitroot/irssiotr/irssiotr.git;a=blob_plain;f=README.xchat;hb=HEAD for XChat], or [http://www.cypherpunks.ca/otr/#downloads for Pidgin]. <br />
<br />
= User related questions =<br />
<br />
== Why haven't I received a confirmation mail even though I registered through NickServ? ==<br />
Make sure you enter the correct e-mail address before you finish your nickname registration. Also check to see if your mailbox isn't full. Finally, nowadays many people (and ISP's) have spam filters in place which can error in detecting what is spam or not. Check to see if your spam filter is not set too high or if your registration/confirmation e-mail has ended up in your junk/spambox. Especially yahoo addresses seem to have problems receiving our confirmation e-mails.<br />
<br />
If you still don't receive a confirmation mail, contact a Chat4All Services Operator. They can drop your registration request, so you can try with a different e-mailaddress, or possibly see on the server what the problem is.<br />
<br />
== Why doesn't the NickServ confirmation code work? ==<br />
When you register your nickname through NickServ, you get an e-mail with a confirmation code<br />
The E-mail will look somewhat like this:<br />
<br />
'''Subject:''' Nickname Registration (YourNickname)<br />
'''From:''' registration (AT) chat4all (DOT) org<br />
'''Content:'''<br />
----<br />
Hi,<br /><br />
You have requested to register the following nickname YourNickname.<br /><br />
Please type " ''/msg NickServ confirm 50m3c0d3h3r3'' " to complete registration.<br /><br />
If you don't know why this mail is sent to you, please ignore it silently.<br /><br />
PLEASE DON'T ANSWER TO THIS MAIL!<br /><br />
chat4all administrators.<br /><br />
<br />
of course the confirmation code will be different ;)<br /><br />
So, just follow the instructions, copy the entire line<br />
''/msg NickServ confirm 50m3c0d3h3r3''<br />
to your chatwindow to confirm your registration.<br />
<br />
You should now get a Notice-Message from NickServ again, this time stating that the registration has been completed:<br />
NickServ : Nickname ''YourNickname'' registered under your account: ''*your@*.host.name''<br />
NickServ : Your password is ''YourPassword'' - remember this for later use.<br />
<br />
If, however, you get a different message, stating that the giving confirmation code was incorrect, then you should check for errors in your typing; perhaps you misjudged a ''zero'' ''(0)'' for an'' 'O'-character '' or a capital ''i'' for a lowercase ''L''. The code is case-sensitive.<br /><br />
The best way to prevent typos is, to select the line from your E-mail, copy it (''by holding down the CTRL-key and pressing the 'c'-key''), and paste it in your chatwindow (''by holding down the CTRL-key again and pressing the 'v'-key'').<br />
<br />
Also make sure you are not copying the double quotes that are around the confirmation line. Commands always start with a '''/'''<br />
<br />
== User x is no longer online, can I still leave a message? ==<br />
If both you, and the person you want to leave a message for, are registered through NickServ, you can use our MemoServ services bot to send a message:<br />
''/MEMOSERV SEND recipientNickname Your message goes here.''<br />
<br />
For instance, if you want to send the user JohnnyExample the message ''"Hei, shame we missed each other online. Can you give me a call when you get this?"'', then type:<br />
''/MEMOSERV SEND JohnnyExample Hei, shame we missed each other online. Can you give me a call when you get this?''<br />
<br />
When JohnnyExample comes online, he'll get a notice from MemoServ that he has a new message waiting. He can then read this message with:<br />
''/MEMOSERV READ NEW''<br />
<br />
Note: you can only send to registered users, and you need to be identified for a registered nickname as well.<br />
<br />
== Why does my nick keep changing to Chat4All_124354? ==<br />
You (or someone else) has registered that nickname and enabled the [[NickServ_Kill_Setting|KILL feature]]. The KILL feature will automatically change the nickname to Chat4All_ followed by a random number when a user does not [[Identify|Identify for that nickname]] within 20 or 60 seconds (depending on the KILL setting).<br />
<br />
If it wasn't you who registered that nickname, then you should pick a different nickname instead. <br />
If you had registered (and confirmed) that nickname within the last 28 days, you should [[Identify|remember to identify for your nickname]] with:<br />
''/NICKSERV IDENTIFY replaceWithYourPassword''<br />
<br />
== Why am I no longer registered? ==<br />
Your nickname will automatically expire if [[Identify|you haven't identified for it in the past 28 days]].<br />
<br />
Your nickname will also be unregistered if you use the<br />
''/NICKSERV DROP''<br />
command.<br />
If you are sure that you identified in the past 28 days, and that you haven't manually dropped your nickname, please open a support ticket on our [http://support.chat4all.net support portal], explaining your problem and including your nickname, your IP and, if you remember, when you registered your nickname. (You can maybe find your confirmation e-mail for this).<br />
<br />
== How can I unregister my nickname? ==<br />
If you no longer want your nickname and e-mailaddress registered at Chat4All, you can manually drop your nickname yourself with the following command:<br />
''/NICKSERV DROP''<br />
Note that you first need to [[Identify|identify for your nickname]]. If you can't remember your password, as a Chat4All services operator to have it send to the e-mailaddress linked to the NickServ account with the SENDPASS command.<br />
<br />
== How many nicknames may I register? ==<br />
You may register 1 (master/main) nicknames per e-mail address. Should you need multiple nicknames, then you can group up to 4 more nicknames to the main nickname using the NickServ Group command:<br />
''/NICKSERV GROUP replaceWithMainNickname replaceWithMainNickname'sPassword''<br />
For instance, if you have already registered the nickname MeatPie with the password '0hs0juic3y!' and you want to group/link the nickname BlueBerryPie to it, you first do:<br />
''/NICK BlueBerryPie''<br />
To make BlueBerryPie your currently active nickname, and then you enter:<br />
''/NICKSERV GROUP MeatPie 0hs0juic3y!''<br />
<br />
So, per e-mail address you can have up to 5 registered nicknames through the use of the NickServ GROUP command. Please note though, that every single nickname in your group needs to be identified for at least once every 28 days. This is to prevent people from hogging too many nicknames and then not using them anymore.<br />
<br />
== Someone is using my registered nickname. How can I get it back? ==<br />
If your nickname has not been dropped by NickServ, you can 'force a nickchange' on the the user who is using your nickname illegally by issuing the RECOVER command. This will change the other person's nickname to Chat4All_12345 (where 12345 is a random number). The services will then put a temporary hold on your nickname, so the other person can't quickly change their nickname back to it again. You need to drop this hold with the RELEASE command and then /NICK to it yourself. So, to recap, if your nickname is ''TheRealJohnny'', and your password is ''H3r3sJ0nny'' and someone else is using your nickname, you can to use the following commands:<br />
''/NICKSERV RECOVER TheRealJohnny H3r3sJ0nny''<br />
To recover the nickname. Followed by:<br />
''/NICKSERV RELEASE TheRealJohnny H3r3sJ0nny''<br />
to release the hold the services have on them. Quickly followed by:<br />
''/NICK TheRealJohnny''<br />
to change your nickname to TheRealJohnny. Finally you need to identify for your nickname with:<br />
''/NICKSERV IDENTIFY H3r3sJ0nny''<br />
<br />
It is also possible that you lost your connection. When you get back on the server, you may find that your nick is still in use. The server usually notices this a bit late, resulting in a socalled 'ghost connection'. You can remove your ghost by issuing the GHOST command:<br />
''/NICKSERV GHOST replaceWithTheGhostNickname replaceWithYourNickServPassword''<br />
So, for instance if your ghost connection TheRealJohnny (registered with password ''H3r3sJ0nny'') is still active, you have to use the following commands:<br />
''/NICKSERV GHOST TheRealJohnny H3r3sJ0nny''<br />
to terminate the ghost connection. Followed by:<br />
''/NICK TheRealJohnny''<br />
to change your nickname to TheRealJohnny. Finally you need to identify for your nickname with:<br />
''/NICKSERV IDENTIFY H3r3sJ0nny''<br />
<br />
Note that it is very impolite to GHOST a real other user who is using your nickname. Use the RECOVER command instead then.<br />
<br />
If that did not work, then it is likely that your nickname was dropped because you have not authenticated to NickServ within the set time of 28 days. You can then try to re-register it as soon the person who is using it now quits. If he registered it, then there is nothing else you (or we) can/will do.<br />
<br />
<br />
= Website and Applet questions =<br />
<br />
== Why can your applet be used free of charge? ==<br />
Other applets, such as [http://www.javirc.com www.javirc.com] are usually not free of charge. <br />
Our chatnetwork offers server side access. You can access our network with different kinds of client side software. That software is not created by us, and thus the creator of that software is free to ask money for it. <br />
However there are for example previous versions of javirc available which are less pretty, yet free. On the other hand, we do offer a [http://www.chat4all.net/eng_homepage.html webchat through our site]. Also, free of charge.<br />
<br />
== Why does the applet show 2 more unrelated channels in the dropdown? ==<br />
If you are chatting with us through one of our applets on a website, you might (incorrectly) think that all channels belong to that website. However, the channel that belongs to your website is just one of the many chatrooms that the Chat4All IRC Network hosts, most of them belonging to all sorts of different communities.<br />
<br />
Since some of these chatrooms that belong to websites are usually empty, we also list Chat4All's main channel, #lounge, in the channel dropdown list at the top of the applet, so these people will have an active channel to find to talk in. However, not all community websites make it clear that that channel (and others) does not belong to their website.<br />
<br />
For the same reason we also list our technical (IRC) Support channel #help in that list, so people know where they can ask their (technical/IRC-related) questions. Please note that we cannot help you in #help with questions regarding the game or website you are chatting from.<br />
<br />
<br />
== Do you offer channel and network statistics I can use on my website? ==<br />
You can check [http://statistics.chat4all.net/ our Denora stats] for the entire network and public channels.<br />
<br />
== How do I add my chatroom to my website? ==<br />
=== Our webclients ===<br />
At the moment we offer 3 different kinds of chat 'applets'<br />
* [[#Java Applet|Java Applet]] our implementation of JPilot's java applet<br />
* [[#Flash Chat|Flash chat]] our implementation of the LightIRC flash client<br />
* [[#Webchat|Our AJAX webchat]], which uses our fork of qwebirc, based on html, css and AJAX technologies.<br />
<br />
==== Flash Chat ====<br />
This is our main alternative to the old Java applet. Our Flash chat uses the [http://www.lightirc.com/ LightIRC Flash IRC Client] to connect to the Chat4All IRC Network. Flash is more commonly available on modern operating systems than Java, and thus has a higher compatibilty. <br />
You can use our [http://chat.chat4all.net/flashgen.php Flash Chat Code Generator] to generate the HTML code to add this IRC client to your website. This generator might change in the near future though, due to updates to the LightIRC client.<br />
<br />
==== Webchat ====<br />
This is our alternative client, which uses our own fork of the [http://qwebirc.org/ qwebirc project], which is a web-based IRC client that uses HTML, CSS and AJAX techniques to connect you to IRC servers.<br />
The added benefit of this client is that it does not require outgoing IRC ports to be opened on your network, since all your traffic will go through the default HTTP port 80 (or HTTPS port 443 should be open up an HTTPS version of the webchat). <br />
This will allow people to connect to Chat4All from networks that have strict network settings, such as blocking all non-HTTP ports.<br />
<br />
To generate the code for your website, go to [http://webchat.chat4all.net/ the Chat4All Webchat] and click on the icon in the top left corner (the 2 speech balloons) and select the 'Add webchat to your site' option from the popupmenu that should appear.<br />
From there, follow the instructions and configure the appearance and settings of the client. At the end of the wizard, it will give you the HTML sourcecode for the iframe you can place on your website.<br />
<br />
==== Java Applet ====<br />
This Java applet will slowly be phased out as it is no longer being updated, and the Java interface has several issues with modern browsers, such as popups being blocked, or security confirmation requests not being shown.<br />
However, for now you can still generate the HTML code to put it on your website, using the [http://www.chat4all.be/eng_homepage.html Java applet code generator].<br />
We would recommend using the [[#Flash Chat|Flash]] or [[#Webchat|Webchat]] instead though, since they have a higher compatibility with modern browsers.<br />
<br />

= Channel related questions =<br />
<br />
== How can I add an operator to my channel? ==<br />
Please read our [[XOP|ChanServ xOP article]] and the [[XOP#How_to_add|How to Add section]] in particular.<br />
<br />
== Why am I not getting an @ in my channel? ==<br />
<br />
=== Why is there an ~ sign instead of an @ in front of my name? ===<br />
If you are getting an ~ sign in front of your name, it means you are recognised as the Founder of the channel instead. This is a higher rank than a regular operator (@). You still have all the powers that you would have as an Operator (@).<br />
In addition to this, you have other rights, such as changing the AOP list.<br />
You can read some more about the Founder status on [http://www.chat4all.net/manual/manual-chan_eng.html#REGISTER our ChanServ#Register manual page].<br />
<br />
You can also, in chat, do:<br />
/CHANSERV HELP<br />
to get a list of the commands available to you through ChanServ as founder.<br />
<br />
The full list of the signs that can appear before a user's nickname is as follows:<br />
~ Founder of the Channel<br />
& User with +a (Admin/SOP) status<br />
@ Regular Operator <br />
% Half-Operator<br />
+ Voiced user<br />
<br />
=== ChanServ doesn't recognise me on my channel ===<br />
If ChanServ doesn't recognise you at all on your channel (you are not getting Voiced/VOP (+), Operator/AOP (@), SOP (%) or Founder (~) status) even though you are certain you have registered your nickname, and are on the channel's ACCESS list (or registered the channel), then you might have [[Identify|forgotten to identify for your nickname]]. Please identify for your nickname with:<br />
''/NICKSERV IDENTIFY replaceWithYourPassword''<br />
<br />
If you still don't get the appropriate access rights, and the channel is registered (the channel's modes should include +r), then contact an IRC Staff member in our support room, or open a support ticket on our [http://support.chat4all.net support portal].<br />
<br />
== Why is my chatroom no longer registered? ==<br />
A Channel registration can be (automatically) dropped for several reasons:<br />
<br />
'''The nickname of the owner expired'''<br />
ChanServ requires that a channel at all times has a Founder.<br />
Therefor, should the NickServ registration of the Founder be dropped (for instance because [[Identify|they haven't identified for their nickname]] within the past 28 days, or because they manually dropped their nickname), ChanServ will check if a Successor has been set for the channel. If there is no Successor set (or the nickname of the Successor is no longer registered either), then the channel will also automatically be dropped/unregistered.<br />
<br />
'''The Founder/Owner hasn't entered their channel, nor used ChanServ IDENTIFY, in the past 28 days.'''<br />
To prevent channels from being unmanaged, a channel needs to be kept active by its founder. The Founder needs to visit their channel at least once every 28 days while [[Identify|being identified]] for the Founder nickname, or use the ''/CHANSERV IDENTIFY'' command to identify as founder of the channel. If the founder does not show this kind of activity, the channel will automatically transfer Founder-status to the Successor. If no successor with a registered nickname is set, then the ChanServ registration will automatically be dropped.<br />
<br />
'''The Founder used the DROP command'''<br />
A channel can be manually unregistered/dropped with the ChanServ DROP command. If you want to drop your channel registration, make sure you are identified for your Founder nickname, and issue:<br />
''/CHANSERV DROP #replaceWithYourChannelname''<br />
<br />
In rare situations your channel might have been dropped by the Chat4All Network staff due to abuse. However, you probably would have been notified already in that situation.<br />
<br />
If you are certain your channel was registered and now it isn't anymore, and you still don't know why your channel is no longer registered, then please contact a Services Operator in our support channel, or by opening a support ticket on our [http://support.chat4all.net support portal]<br />
<br />
== How can I have ChanServ auto-voice everyone on my channel? ==<br />
If you are using the ACCESS LEVELS system instead of the xOP systeem, then you can have your chatters be autovoiced by:<br />
* setting the SECURE option to OFF:<br />
''/CHANSERV SET #replaceWithYourChannelname SECURE OFF''<br />
* and setting the AUTOVOICE level to 0 or -1:<br />
''/CHANSERV LEVELS #replaceWithYourChannelname SET AUTOVOICE -1''<br />
<br />
== How many chatrooms may I register on chat4all? ==<br />
A NickServ registration may register up to 6 chatrooms. This should be more than enough for most people.<br />
<br />
== How do I get a bot on my channel? ==<br />
Chat4All only offers ChanServ/BotServ aliases. We have a Wiki article that explains [[Bot#Request_a_Bot|how to request a BotServ Bot]].<br />
We do not offer bots with custom features though. Should you need one, you need to run it yourself on your own internet connection, and make sure the bot is using usermode +B to identify it is a user bot.<br />
Please note that your bot needs to offer a service to your users. We do not condone fake bots just to increase your channel's usercount.<br />
Also, we do not allow bots that have a malicious purpose, such as (D)DoS'ing hosts, spreading credit card information or other malicious/illegal purposes.<br />
<br />
== Can I get a game/statistics bot inside my chatroom? ==<br />
You are (as room owner) allowed to have 1 bot (outside chanserv) inside your chatroom. This may of course be a game/statistics bot, and it may be using different software. However, this is not software supplied by us. We suggest searching the internet for software like eggdrop, or scripts that can compliment a mIRC installation.</div>

<p>Adonis: </p>
<hr />
<div>At the Chat4All server we have a session limit in effect.<br />
<br />
This means that we only allow a maximum of '''''4 concurrent connections from 1 IP'''''.<br /><br />
All excessive connections will be denied. If you continue to try to establish more than 4 connections from 1 IP to our IRC-Network, you run the risk of having an automated IP-Serverban (Akill) to be placed on your entire connection to prevent further hammering of our network.<br />
<br />
If you think you have a valid reason to have more connections than the current sessionlimit, you can open a ticket on our [http://support.chat4all.net support portal].</div>

<div>On this page you can find answers to questions you may have. If the answer to your question is not listed here, then please open a ticket on our [http://support.chat4all.net support portal].<br />
<br />
=Generic Questions=<br />
<br />
*Q: Is having a chatroom at your network (chat4all.org) free? <br /><br />A: Yes, absolutely free... you don't even have to place a banner or put up with advertising. But a banner or a short line indicating that you have your chatroom with our network is more than appreciated. :-)<br />
<br />
<br />
*Q: But other applets, like [http://www.javirc.com www.javirc.com] are not free of charge. Why is that? <br /><br />A: Our chatnetwork offers server side access. You can access our network with different kinds of client side software. That software is not created by us, and thus the creator of that software is free to ask money for it. <br /><br />However there are previous versions of for example javirc available which are less pretty, but are free. On the other hand, we do offer a [http://www.chat4all.net/eng_homepage.html webchat through our site]. Also, free of charge.<br />
<br />
<br />
*Q: My firewall software shows an alert every time I enter your network. Why is that? <br /><br />A: To keep our network clean of possible hackers, we check certain ports on connecting computers. These ports are usually used by people who use proxies to enter the chat through someone else's computer without that person knowing it. People who have these open ports will not be allowed on our network. The alert is harmless when it comes from address: 217.172.170.241 and 69.64.52.243 (our EU and US servers).<br />
<br />
<br />
*Q: Can I become an operator in your (chat4all) rooms?<br /><br />A: Operators for our own rooms are appointed by invitation only. To become an operator in someone else's room, you will have to ask there. However, generally asking (begging) to become an operator somewhere is considered rude, and may result in you being kicked, or even banned from that chatroom.<br />
<br />
<br />
*Q: Can I become an IRCop/NetAdmin on chat4all?<br /><br />A: No, and people who ask (or even beg) to become an IRCop will not even be considered in case such position comes available. IRCops are considered by invitation only. To become one, you will need to positively catch our attention by being friendly, helping people and be knowledgeable of the workings of our network. And even then there is no guarantee you will be asked. Just have a good time, enjoy the chat.<br />
<br />
<br />
*Q: Your network is very hard to access. Sometimes it takes minutes to get through! <br /><br />A: You are probably behind a router or a firewall, which is blocking the TCP 113 (IdentD) port. Open this port in your router/firewall and you'll find that the access time is vastly improved.<br />
<br />
<br />
*Q: May I advertise for my chatroom or IRC server on your network?<br /><br />A: Definitely not. Advertising your chatroom in other chatrooms on our network is rude and not allowed. Would you want others to advertise their chatrooms inside your chatroom? However, there is one exception to this rule, and that is channel #chat4all. This channel is, to a certain extent, created specifically for promotion of your own channel.<br /><br />If you own an IRC server, or you are an IRCop on another IRC server and you advertise (spam) your services on our network, you will risk being permanently banned off our server.<br />
<br />
<br />
*Q: What is a vhost, and how can I get one? <br /><br />A: A [[vhost]] is used to mask your hostname. We already mask your IP/Hostname to a certain extent, however if you have a registered nickname, you can have it changed in anything you want. Visit the [[vhost]] page for a detailed explanation and how to request one.</div>

KamerBeveiliging
2010-12-02T13:02:09Z
<p>Adonis: /* Cons */</p>
<hr />
<div>Er zijn diverse manieren waarop je toegang tot je kanaal kan beperken. Dit artikel behandelt diverse suggesties om je kanaal te beveiligen tegen tegen aanvallen van kwaadwillende gebruikers.<br />
<br />
Bedenk wel dat de beste manier om ervoor te zorgen dat je reguliere chatters zo min mogelijk overlast hebben van kwaadwillende gebruikers, nog steeds het hebben van voldoende actieve en betrouwbare operators in je kanaal is.<br />
<br />
=Geheim kanaal=<br />
De simpelste (en wellicht minst effectieve) manier om elke willekeurige gebruiker uit je kamer te weren, is door je kamer 'geheim' te maken met:<br />
/MODE #kamernaam +s<br />
Als je bijvoorbeeld je kanaal #onzeGeheimeSchuilplaats 'geheim' wilt maken, dan voer je uit:<br />
/MODE #onzeGeheimeSchuilplaats +s<br />
Dit zal je kanaal verbergen van de kamerlijst /LIST en van de /WHO en /WHOIS resultaten van gebruikers (tenzij ze al in dat kanaal zitten).<br />
<br />
==Voordelen==<br />
* Kan gebruikt worden op niet-registreerde kamers.<br />
* Simpel in te stellen.<br />
* Voorkomt dat willekeurige gebruikers je kamernaam ontdekken via de /LIST, /WHO of /WHOIS commando's.<br />
==Nadelen==<br />
* Als iemand jouw kamernaam in een ander kanaal vermeldt, dan kunnen (kwaadwillende) gebruikers alsnog je kanaal ontdekken.<br />
* Je krijgt wellicht minder snel nieuwe gebruikers, aangezien mensen met vergelijkbare interesses je kanaal niet kunnen ontdekken via /LIST<br />
* De kamermode zal verloren gaan als het kanaal vernietigd wordt (wat automatisch bijvoorbeeld gebeurd wanneer er niemand meer in het kanaal is. Dit kan omzeild worden voor geregistreerde kamers, door de +s mode toe te voegen aan de [[NL/Mlock|ChanServ MLOCK]] instelling van het kanaal.<br />
<br />
=Kamer sleutel=<br />
Een van de meer naieve manieren om toegang tot een publiek kanaal te beperken, is het instellen van een kamer sleutel:<br />
/MODE #kamernaam +k sleutelwoord<br />
Om bijvoorbeeld te vereisen dat mensen de kamer sleutel 'onsGeheimeWoord' kennen om de kamer #onzeStafledenKamer binnen te gaan, moet je dit commando uitvoeren:<br />
/MODE #onzeStafledenKamer +k onsGeheimeWoord<br />
<br />
If people want to join the channel then, they'd have to specify the key in the join command:<br />
Als mensen dan de kamer willen betreden, dan moeten ze de sleutel opgeven in het 'join' commando:<br />
/JOIN #kamernaam sleutelwoord<br />
Voor onze voorbeeld kamer is dat bijvoorbeeld:<br />
/JOIN #onzeStafledenKamer onsGeheimeWoord<br />
<br />
==Voordelen==<br />
* Kan gebruikt worden op niet-registreerde kamers.<br />
* Simpel in te stellen.<br />
* Voorkomt dat willekeurige gebruikers het kanaal binnen kunnen komen wanneer ze het in de kamerlijst zien met /LIST.<br />
==Nadelen==<br />
* De kamermode zal verloren gaan als het kanaal vernietigd wordt (wat automatisch bijvoorbeeld gebeurd wanneer er niemand meer in het kanaal is. Dit kan omzeild worden voor geregistreerde kamers, door de +s mode toe te voegen aan de [[NL/Mlock|ChanServ MLOCK]] instelling van het kanaal.<br />
* De eerste gebruiker die binnenkomt heeft niet het sleutelwoord nodig om binnen te komen, aangezien het kanaal feitelijk nog niet bestaat op dat moment, en dus ook nog niet de +k mode heeft. Dit kan omzeild worden door de ChannelKeeper bot aan te vragen voor je kanaal, om hem te allen tijde open te houden.<br />
* Het is lastiger voor mensen om je kamer binnen te treden als ze een applet gebruiken.<br />
* Sleutelwoorden kunnen snel nutteloos gemaakt worden wanner een kwaadwillende gebruiker achter het sleutelwoord komt (bijvoorbeeld doordat iemand anders in het kanaal het sleutelwoord aan ze heeft gegeven, of door het op je website te lezen). Let verder ook op dat iedereen in het kanaal kan zien wat het huidige kamer sleutelwoord is, aangezien het onderdeel is van de kamer modi, en alle modi altijd zichtbaar zijn voor gebruikers in het kanaal. Kortom, als iemand 'invited' wordt in het kanaal, kunnen ze alsnog het sleutelwoord zien.<br />
<br />
<br />
=Alleen-uitnodigingen=<br />
==Instellen kamermode==<br />
Je kan toegang tot je kamer beperken door alleen 'uitgenodigden' (/invite) toe te staan.<br />
Je kan je kamer 'invite-only' (alleen-uitnodigingen) maken via kamermode +i: <br />
/MODE #channel +i<br />
Om bijvoorbeeld de voorbeeldkamer #onzeStafledenKanaal invite-only te maken, gebruik<br />
/MODE #onzeStafledenKanaal +i<br />
<br />
==Gebruiker uitnodigen==<br />
Om een gebruiker uit te nodigen gebruik je het commando:<br />
/INVITE nicknaam #kamernaam<br />
Bijvoorbeeld, om de gebruiker ''JackDaniels'' uit te nodigen in #onzeStafledenKanaal, voer je uit:<br />
/INVITE JackDaniels #onzeStafledenKanaal<br />
<br />
Het invite commando kan alleen door operators (@/+o) en hoger gebruikt worden wanneer de kamer 'invite-only' is. Pas op! Het uitnodigen van willekeurige mensen kan gezien worden als een vorm van reclame maken en zou een schending van de gebruiksregels van het IRC netwerk kunnen zijn.<br />
<br />
==Knock/Kloppen==<br />
Een chatter kan ook verzoeken om uitgenodigd te worden tot een kamer met het /KNOCK commando:<br />
/KNOCK #kamernaam je bericht komt hier<br />
Als je bijvoorbeeld tot het #onzeStafledenKanaal uitgenodigd wilt worden, kan je tikken:<br />
/KNOCK #onzeStafledenKanaal Hei jongens, laat me er alsjeblief in. Itsa me! Mario!<br />
<br />
De operators in de kamer krijgen dan een 'opnotice' met jouw nickname, ident@host.mask en het bericht dat je hebt verzonden:<br />
NoticeOp(eu.chat4all.org): [Knock] by JackDaniels!Jack@the.liquor.cabinet (Hei jongens, laat me er alsjeblief in. Itsa me! Mario!)<br />
Waarop zij kunnen beslissen of ze een /INVITE op je doen of niet (of je bannen als je ze lastig valt met kloppen).<br />
<br />
Je kan niet kloppen (/KNOCK) wanneer:<br />
* je gebanned bent<br />
* je al in het kanaal zit<br />
* het kanaal niet invite-only is<br />
<br />
===Voordelen===<br />
* Willekeurige gebruikers kunnen niet het kanaal in zonder je toestemming.<br />
* Je kamer kan publiek blijven (en dus in /LIST gevonden worden) en geinteresseerde gebruikers kunnen /KNOCK gebruiken om je te laten weten dat ze graag binnengelaten willen worden<br />
===Nadelen===<br />
* Een invite omzeilt alle bans (als je een gebruiker uitnodigd die anders niet toegelaten zou worden vanwegen een +b kamermode ban, wordt die dan wel toegestaan om binnen te komen).<br />
<br />
==Niet-geregistreerde kamers==<br />
Niet-geregistreerde kamers hebben alleen toegang tot de bovenstaande commando's. Zij zullen ook de +i mode verliezen als de kamer niet meer bestaat (bijvoorbeeld als de laatste gebruiker het kanaal verlaat).<br />
<br />
===Extra nadelen voor niet-geregistreerde kamers===<br />
* De +i mode zal verloren gaan wanneer de kamer 'vernietigd' wordt omdat de laatste chatter het kanaal verlaten heeft.<br />
* De eerste gebruiker die binnenkomt, hoeft niet uitgenodigd te worden, omdat +i alleen ingesteld wordt ''nadat'' de eerste gebruiker binnenkomt. Dit kan alleen omzeild worden voor geregistreerde kamers die ChannelKeeper gebruiken in combinaties met de [[NL/Mlock|ChanServ MLOCK]] instelling van het kanaal; zie de volgende sectie voor details.<br />
* Er moet altijd een operator actief zijn om mensen binnen te laten (alhoewel er voor geregistreerde kanalen manieren zijn om hieromheen te werken, maar dit wordt in de volgende secties behandeld).<br />
<br />
==Geregistreerde kamers==<br />
Geregistreerde kamers kunnen de +i kamermode toevoegen aan de [[NL/Mlock|ChanServ MLOCK]] instelling van het kanaal, zodat die automatisch ingesteld wordt (en niet toegestaan zal worden om de mode te verwijderen) gedurende het 'openen' van het kanaal (wanneer de eerste gebruiker het kanaal binnenkomt).<br />
Echter, aangezien geen enkele kanaalmode effectief is wanneer een kamer nog geen gebruikers heeft, kan de eerste gebruiker die het kanaal binnenkomt, dit doen zonder uitgenodigd te worden (aangezien +i pas gezet wordt ''nadat'' de eerste chatter binnenkomt.<br />
Dit kan omzeild worden door een IRC Operator in #help te vragen om de ChannelKeeper bot aan de kamer toe te voegen om het kanaal te allen tijde open te houden.<br />
<br />
Registreerde chatters met de juiste rechten kunnen ook het '''''/CHANSERV INVITE #kamernaam''''' commando gebruiken om zichzelf uit te nodigen tot het kanaal. Zie de volgende secties voor details over wat de juiste rechten zijn. Bijvoorbeeld, om jezelf uit te nodigen in het #onzeStafledenKanaal, kan je tikken:<br />
/CHANSERV INVITE #onzeStafledenKanaal<br />
Dit kan ''alleen'' gebruikt worden om jezelf uit te nodigen, en niet anderen.<br />
<br />
===Extra voordelen voor geregistreerde kamers===<br />
* Je kan +i toevoegen aan de [[NL/Mlock|ChanServ MLOCK]] instelling van het kanaal.<br />
* Je kan de ChannelKeeper bot aanvragen om je kamer te allen tijde open te houden, zodat de +i mode ook effectief is als er nog geen 'echte' chatters in je kamer zitten.<br />
* CHANSERV INVITE kan gebruikt worden door geregistreerde gebruikers met de juiste rechten om zichzelf uit te nodigen tot het kanaal.<br />
<br />
===Extra nadelen voor geregistreerde kamers===<br />
* Access levels moeten worden beheerd.<br />
<br />
===Gebruikmakend van xOP systeem===<br />
Als je het xOP ChanServ gebruikersbeheer systeem gebruikt (wat standaard is voor nieuwe registreerde kamers), dan kan je mensen aan de AOP lijst toevoegen om ze toe te staan om zichzelf uit te nodigen tot het kanaal via ChanServ:<br />
/CHANSERV AOP #kamernaam ADD nickname<br />
Bijvoorbeeld, om JackDaniels aan de AOP lijst van #onzeStafledenKanaal toe te voegen, voer je dit uit:<br />
/CHANSERV AOP #onzeStafledenKanaal ADD JackDaniels<br />
<br />
Waarna JackDaniels zichzelf met:<br />
/CHANSERV INVITE #onzeStafledenKanaal<br />
kan uitnodigen tot het kanaal door ChanServ (als BOTSERV SET SYMBIOSIS ingesteld is op ON en er een BotServ bot aangewezen is voor het kanaal, dan komt de uitnodiging van de aangewezen BotServ bot).<br />
<br />
====Extra nadelen voor xOP====<br />
* Het gebruik van CHANSERV INVITE kan alleen maar toegewezen worden aan gebruikers met AOP status of hoger.<br />
<br />
===Gebruikmakend van het ACCESS systeem===<br />
Als je gebruik maakt van het [[NL/Levels|ACCESS LEVELS]] systeem in plaats van het xOP systeem, dan heb je iets meer controle over wie je toegang geeft tot het ChanServ INVITE commando waarmee chatters zichzelf tot een kamer kunnen uitnodigen.<br />
Voor meer informatie over hoe je het [[NL/Levels|ACCESS LEVELS]] systeem kan activeren door het uitschakelen van het xOP systeem, lees a.u.b. het [[NL/Levels|hoofdartikel over access levels]].<br />
<br />
Met de standaard access levels kan je een gebruiker een minimum niveau van 5 toewijzen via je kamers ChanServ Access lijst:<br />
/CHANSERV ACCESS #kamernaam ADD gebruikersnaam niveau<br />
Bijvoorbeeld om JackDaniels niveau 5 toegang te geven op het #drankWinkel kanaal, kan je het volgende commando uitvoeren:<br />
/CHANSERV ACCESS #drankWinkel ADD JackDaniels 5<br />
<br />
Je kan er ook voor kiezen om het minimaal benodigde niveau voor het ChanServ INVITE commando te verlagen met:<br />
/CHANSERV LEVELS #kamernaam SET INVITE minNiveau<br />
Bijvoorbeeld om iedereen met minimaal access niveau 1 toegang te geven tot het INVITE commando voor de kamer #drankWinkel, gebruik je:<br />
/CHANSERV LEVELS #drankWinkel SET INVITE 1<br />
<br />
Nu kan iedereen met toegangsniveau 1 of hoger het INVITE commando gebruiken.<br />
<br />
Bijvoorbeeld:<br />
/CHANSERV ACCESS #drankWinkel ADD JackDaniels 1<br />
zal nu JackDaniels toestaan om ''/CHANSERV INVITE #drankWinkel'' te gebruiken, zonder hem ook gelijk KICK/OP/etc rechten te geven (tenminste met de standaard chanserv levels instellingen)<br />
<br />
====Extra voordelen voor ACCESS====<br />
* Het gebruik van CHANSERV INVITE kan toegewezen worden aan gebruikers met het minimale niveau dat je zelf instelt.<br />
<br />
=ChanServ Restricted=<br />
Met de ChanServ RESTRICTED instelling kan je mensen die geen toegang hebben tot je kanaal, automatisch laten kick-bannen.<br />
Dit stel je in met:<br />
/CHANSERV SET #kamernaam RESTRICTED [ON|OFF]<br />
Bijvoorbeeld, om de ChanServ RESTRICTED instelling voor de kamer #drankWinkel te activeren, gebruik je:<br />
/CHANSERV SET #drankWinkel RESTRICTED ON<br />
<br />
Van nu af aan zullen alleen geregisteerde chatters die in de access/toegangslijsten staan, toegang hebben tot het kanaal. Als de SECURE setting van de kamer ook ON is, dan moeten ze zelfs geidentificeerd zijn voor hun nickname via NickServ; staat die instelling op OFF, dan worden ze ook toegelaten als ze [[#Over_semi-geidentificeerd|semi-geidentificeerd]] zijn.<br />
<br />
==Over semi-geidentificeerd==<br />
Je bent semi-geidentificeerd wanneer:<br />
# Je een geregistreerde gebruikersnaam hebt.<br />
# Je NIET geidentificeerd bent voor die gebruikersnaam via /NICKSERV IDENTIFY<br />
# Je NickServ SECURE instelling op OFF staat (Let Op! Dit staat standaard op ON)<br />
# Je verbonden bent van een host die overeenkomt met 1 van de hostmasks die in je /NICKSERV ACCESS LIST lijst staat.<br />
<br />
Kamers zullen je alleen de juiste rechten geven als diens ChanServ SECURE setting op OFF staat. Als de ChanServ SECURE setting van het kanaal op ON staat, dan moeten de gebruikers normaal identificeren met /NICKSERV IDENTIFY voordat ze gezien worden als een geregistreerde gebruiker.<br />
<br />
==gebruikmakend van xOP systeem==<br />
Je moet ''geregistreerde'' gebruikers toevoegen aan 1 van de VOP/HOP/AOP/SOP lijsten om ze toegang te geven to het kanaal. De syntaxis voor dit commando is:<br />
/CHANSERV [VOP|HOP|AOP|SOP] #kamernaam ADD gebruikersnaam<br />
Om bijvoorbeeld de geregistreerde voorbeeldgebruiker JackDaniels aan de VOP (auto-voice) lijst van het #drankWinkel kanaal toe te voegen, voer je uit:<br />
/CHANSERV VOP #drankWinkel ADD JackDaniels<br />
<br />
Aangezien het minimaal benodigde niveau VOP is, stel ik voor om ze gewoon als VOP toe te voegen, tenzij ze ook operator rechten nodig hebben.<br />
<br />
Je kan de toegang weer intrekken met:<br />
/CHANSERV [VOP|HOP|AOP|SOP] #kamernaam DEL gebruikersnaam<br />
Om bijvoorbeeld JohnnieWalker's toegang tot #drankWinkel te ontzeggen (als hij eerder aan de VOP lijst was toegevoegd, typ je:<br />
/CHANSERV VOP #drankWinkel DEL JohnnieWalker<br />
Gevolgd door een vlugge '''''/KICK #drankWinkel JohnnieWalker Maak dat je wegkomt, wij willen alleen echte whisky hier!''''' als de chatter nog steeds in de kamer is.<br />
<br />
==gebruikmakend van ACCESS systeem==<br />
Als je het ACCESS LEVELS systeem gebruikt, dan moet je de ''geregistreerde'' gebruikers toevoegen aan de ChanServ ACCESS lijst met een toegangsniveau van minimaal 1 om ze toegang te geven tot het kanaal. Dit commando heeft de volgende syntaxis:<br />
/CHANSERV ACCESS #kamernaam ADD gebruikersnaam toegangsniveau<br />
Om bijvoorbeeld WilliamLawson toegang te geven to #drankWinkel met toegangsniveau 1, voer je uit:<br />
/CHANSERV ACCESS #drankWinkel ADD WilliamLawson 1<br />
<br />
Aangezien het minimaal benodigde niveau 1 is, stel ik voor om gebruikers die alleen maar toegang moeten hebben tot het kanaal en geen andere rechten nodig hebben, ze alleen maar niveau 1 toe te wijzen.<br />
Wanneer ze meer rechten nodig hebben, dan kan je hun toegangsniveau verhogen tot het benodigde level, lees het [[NL/Levels|Access Levels artikel]] voor details.<br />
<br />
Als je iemands rechten wilt intrekken, gebruik dan:<br />
/CHANSERV ACCESS #kamernaam DEL gebruikersnaam<br />
Wil je bijvoorbeeld Tequila's toegang to #drankWinkel ontzeggen, voer dan uit:<br />
/CHANSERV ACCESS #drankWinkel DEL Tequila<br />
<br />
Let op dat de ACCESS lijst alleen aangepast kan worden door gebruikers met een minimaal gebruikersniveau dat toegang heeft tot ACC-CHANGE (dit level is aanpasbaar voor gebruikers met toegang to SET via ''/CHANSERV LEVELS #kamernaam SET ACC-CHANGE gebruikersniveau''). Standaard is dit niveau 10.<br />
<br />
===NOJOIN Level===<br />
Er is ook een NOJOIN level dat je kan aanpassen via ChanServ:<br />
/CHANSERV LEVELS #kamernaam SET NOJOIN minNiveau<br />
Standaard, op een nieuw aangemaakt kanaal, is dit ingesteld op level -2, wat iedereen toelaat tot het kanaal, tenzij ze een userlevel van -2 of lager hebben.<br />
<br />
Echter, wanneer je RESTRICTED inschakelt, zal het automatisch veranderd worden naar 0, en dus iedereen die NIET op de ACCESS lijst staat met een level van 1 of hoger de toegang weigeren.<br /><br />
Je kan dit nog steeds handmatig aanpassen naar -2 nadat je RESTRICTED ON hebt ingesteld, met:<br />
/CHANSERV LEVELS #kamernaam SET NOJOIN -2<br />
Waardoor iedereen je kanaal binnenkan, tenzij ze op de ChanServ ACCESS lijst staan met een level van -2 of lager.<br />
<br />
Begrijp dat de RESTRICTED instelling blijkbaar werkt als een schakelaar voor de NOJOIN level; zelfs met RESTRICTED op OFF, kan je nog steeds toegang tot je kanaal beperken via het NOJOIN level. Dit commando lijkt alleen maar toegevoegd te zijn om te dienen als een schakelaar voor kamers die het xOP systeem gebruiken.<br />
<br />
Na enig testen hebben we afgeleid dat:<br />
RESTRICTED ON de NOJOIN setting forceert naar 0 als het huidige NOJOIN level negatief is.<br /><br />
RESTRICTED OFF zal de NOJOIN setting forceren naar -2 als het huidige NOJOIN niveau gelijk is aan of hoger is dan 0<br />
<br />
Hier is een overzicht van wat we getest hebben met de opgegeven NOJOIN niveaus:<br />
<br />
NOJOIN -2 -> <br />
Kickbant:<br />
# alleen diegene die op de ACCESS lijst staan met een level van -2 of lager<br />
Geeft toegang aan:<br />
# iedereen die op de ACCESS lijst staat met niveau -1 of hoger<br />
# iedereen die niet op de ACCESS lijst staat.<br />
<br />
NOJOIN -1 -> <br />
Kickbant:<br />
# iedereen die niet geidentificeerd is voor zijn/haar gebruikersnaam<br />
# iedereen met een gebruikersnaam op de ACCESS lijst, maar die niet geidentifieerd is voor zijn/haar gebruikersnaam, noch semi-geidentificeerd.<br />
Geeft toegang aan: <br />
# iedereen die geidentificeerd is voor zijn/haar gebruikersnaam<br />
# iedereen die op de ChanServ ACCESS lijst staat met een nickname die semi-geidentificeerd is (tenzij de ChanServ SECURE instelling van het kanaal op ON staat)<br />
<br />
NOJOIN 0 -> <br />
Kickbant:<br />
# iedereen die NIET op de ACCESS lijst staat<br />
# iedereen die op de ACCESS lijst staat met een negatief niveau<br />
Geeft toegang aan:<br />
# iedereen die op de ACCESS lijst staat met een positief niveau<br />
<br />
==Voordelen==<br />
* Je kan een erg stricte manier hebben om aan te geven welke gebruikers je wel en niet op je kanaal wilt hebben<br />
* Al je gebruikers moeten geregistreerd zijn<br />
==Nadelen==<br />
* Je moet handmatig elke gebruiker toevoegen aan de ACCESS lijst van je kamer<br />
* Gebruikers moeten geregistreerd zijn<br />
* Gebruikers moeten erop letten dat ze geidentificeerd zijn voor hun gebruikersnaam (of [[#Over_semi-geidentificeerd|semi-geidentificeerd]] zijn als de SECURE setting van het kanaal op OFF staat) ''voordat'' ze de kamer binnenkomen. Anders zullen ze automatisch gebanned worden, en tenzij ze toegang hebben tot het /CHANSERV UNBAN commandom zullen ze nog steeds niet binnen kunnen komen daarna.</div>

KamerBeveiliging

<p>Adonis: /* Cons */</p>
<hr />
<div>Er zijn diverse manieren waarop je toegang tot je kanaal kan beperken. Dit artikel behandelt diverse suggesties om je kanaal te beveiligen tegen tegen aanvallen van kwaadwillende gebruikers.<br />
<br />
Bedenk wel dat de beste manier om ervoor te zorgen dat je reguliere chatters zo min mogelijk overlast hebben van kwaadwillende gebruikers, nog steeds het hebben van voldoende actieve en betrouwbare operators in je kanaal is.<br />
<br />
=Geheim kanaal=<br />
De simpelste (en wellicht minst effectieve) manier om elke willekeurige gebruiker uit je kamer te weren, is door je kamer 'geheim' te maken met:<br />
/MODE #kamernaam +s<br />
Als je bijvoorbeeld je kanaal #onzeGeheimeSchuilplaats 'geheim' wilt maken, dan voer je uit:<br />
/MODE #onzeGeheimeSchuilplaats +s<br />
Dit zal je kanaal verbergen van de kamerlijst /LIST en van de /WHO en /WHOIS resultaten van gebruikers (tenzij ze al in dat kanaal zitten).<br />
<br />
==Voordelen==<br />
* Kan gebruikt worden op niet-registreerde kamers.<br />
* Simpel in te stellen.<br />
* Voorkomt dat willekeurige gebruikers je kamernaam ontdekken via de /LIST, /WHO of /WHOIS commando's.<br />
==Nadelen==<br />
* Als iemand jouw kamernaam in een ander kanaal vermeldt, dan kunnen (kwaadwillende) gebruikers alsnog je kanaal ontdekken.<br />
* Je krijgt wellicht minder snel nieuwe gebruikers, aangezien mensen met vergelijkbare interesses je kanaal niet kunnen ontdekken via /LIST<br />
* De kamermode zal verloren gaan als het kanaal vernietigd wordt (wat automatisch bijvoorbeeld gebeurd wanneer er niemand meer in het kanaal is. Dit kan omzeild worden voor geregistreerde kamers, door de +s mode toe te voegen aan de [[NL/Mlock|ChanServ MLOCK]] instelling van het kanaal.<br />
<br />
=Kamer sleutel=<br />
Een van de meer naieve manieren om toegang tot een publiek kanaal te beperken, is het instellen van een kamer sleutel:<br />
/MODE #kamernaam +k sleutelwoord<br />
Om bijvoorbeeld te vereisen dat mensen de kamer sleutel 'onsGeheimeWoord' kennen om de kamer #onzeStafledenKamer binnen te gaan, moet je dit commando uitvoeren:<br />
/MODE #onzeStafledenKamer +k onsGeheimeWoord<br />
<br />
If people want to join the channel then, they'd have to specify the key in the join command:<br />
Als mensen dan de kamer willen betreden, dan moeten ze de sleutel opgeven in het 'join' commando:<br />
/JOIN #kamernaam sleutelwoord<br />
Voor onze voorbeeld kamer is dat bijvoorbeeld:<br />
/JOIN #onzeStafledenKamer onsGeheimeWoord<br />
<br />
==Voordelen==<br />
* Kan gebruikt worden op niet-registreerde kamers.<br />
* Simpel in te stellen.<br />
* Voorkomt dat willekeurige gebruikers het kanaal binnen kunnen komen wanneer ze het in de kamerlijst zien met /LIST.<br />
==Nadelen==<br />
* De kamermode zal verloren gaan als het kanaal vernietigd wordt (wat automatisch bijvoorbeeld gebeurd wanneer er niemand meer in het kanaal is. Dit kan omzeild worden voor geregistreerde kamers, door de +s mode toe te voegen aan de [[NL/Mlock|ChanServ MLOCK]] instelling van het kanaal.<br />
* De eerste gebruiker die binnenkomt heeft niet het sleutelwoord nodig om binnen te komen, aangezien het kanaal feitelijk nog niet bestaat op dat moment, en dus ook nog niet de +k mode heeft. Dit kan omzeild worden door de ChannelKeeper bot aan te vragen voor je kanaal, om hem te allen tijde open te houden.<br />
* Het is lastiger voor mensen om je kamer binnen te treden als ze een applet gebruiken.<br />
* Sleutelwoorden kunnen snel nutteloos gemaakt worden wanner een kwaadwillende gebruiker achter het sleutelwoord komt (bijvoorbeeld doordat iemand anders in het kanaal het sleutelwoord aan ze heeft gegeven, of door het op je website te lezen). Let verder ook op dat iedereen in het kanaal kan zien wat het huidige kamer sleutelwoord is, aangezien het onderdeel is van de kamer modi, en alle modi altijd zichtbaar zijn voor gebruikers in het kanaal. Kortom, als iemand 'invited' wordt in het kanaal, kunnen ze alsnog het sleutelwoord zien.<br />
<br />
<br />
=Alleen-uitnodigingen=<br />
==Instellen kamermode==<br />
Je kan toegang tot je kamer beperken door alleen 'uitgenodigden' (/invite) toe te staan.<br />
Je kan je kamer 'invite-only' (alleen-uitnodigingen) maken via kamermode +i: <br />
/MODE #channel +i<br />
Om bijvoorbeeld de voorbeeldkamer #onzeStafledenKanaal invite-only te maken, gebruik<br />
/MODE #onzeStafledenKanaal +i<br />
<br />
==Gebruiker uitnodigen==<br />
Om een gebruiker uit te nodigen gebruik je het commando:<br />
/INVITE nicknaam #kamernaam<br />
Bijvoorbeeld, om de gebruiker ''JackDaniels'' uit te nodigen in #onzeStafledenKanaal, voer je uit:<br />
/INVITE JackDaniels #onzeStafledenKanaal<br />
<br />
Het invite commando kan alleen door operators (@/+o) en hoger gebruikt worden wanneer de kamer 'invite-only' is. Pas op! Het uitnodigen van willekeurige mensen kan gezien worden als een vorm van reclame maken en zou een schending van de gebruiksregels van het IRC netwerk kunnen zijn.<br />
<br />
==Knock/Kloppen==<br />
Een chatter kan ook verzoeken om uitgenodigd te worden tot een kamer met het /KNOCK commando:<br />
/KNOCK #kamernaam je bericht komt hier<br />
Als je bijvoorbeeld tot het #onzeStafledenKanaal uitgenodigd wilt worden, kan je tikken:<br />
/KNOCK #onzeStafledenKanaal Hei jongens, laat me er alsjeblief in. Itsa me! Mario!<br />
<br />
De operators in de kamer krijgen dan een 'opnotice' met jouw nickname, ident@host.mask en het bericht dat je hebt verzonden:<br />
NoticeOp(eu.chat4all.org): [Knock] by JackDaniels!Jack@the.liquor.cabinet (Hei jongens, laat me er alsjeblief in. Itsa me! Mario!)<br />
Waarop zij kunnen beslissen of ze een /INVITE op je doen of niet (of je bannen als je ze lastig valt met kloppen).<br />
<br />
Je kan niet kloppen (/KNOCK) wanneer:<br />
* je gebanned bent<br />
* je al in het kanaal zit<br />
* het kanaal niet invite-only is<br />
<br />
===Voordelen===<br />
* Willekeurige gebruikers kunnen niet het kanaal in zonder je toestemming.<br />
* Je kamer kan publiek blijven (en dus in /LIST gevonden worden) en geinteresseerde gebruikers kunnen /KNOCK gebruiken om je te laten weten dat ze graag binnengelaten willen worden<br />
===Nadelen===<br />
* Een invite omzeilt alle bans (als je een gebruiker uitnodigd die anders niet toegelaten zou worden vanwegen een +b kamermode ban, wordt die dan wel toegestaan om binnen te komen).<br />
<br />
==Niet-geregistreerde kamers==<br />
Niet-geregistreerde kamers hebben alleen toegang tot de bovenstaande commando's. Zij zullen ook de +i mode verliezen als de kamer niet meer bestaat (bijvoorbeeld als de laatste gebruiker het kanaal verlaat).<br />
<br />
===Extra nadelen voor niet-geregistreerde kamers===<br />
* De +i mode zal verloren gaan wanneer de kamer 'vernietigd' wordt omdat de laatste chatter het kanaal verlaten heeft.<br />
* De eerste gebruiker die binnenkomt, hoeft niet uitgenodigd te worden, omdat +i alleen ingesteld wordt ''nadat'' de eerste gebruiker binnenkomt. Dit kan alleen omzeild worden voor geregistreerde kamers die ChannelKeeper gebruiken in combinaties met de [[NL/Mlock|ChanServ MLOCK]] instelling van het kanaal; zie de volgende sectie voor details.<br />
* Er moet altijd een operator actief zijn om mensen binnen te laten (alhoewel er voor geregistreerde kanalen manieren zijn om hieromheen te werken, maar dit wordt in de volgende secties behandeld).<br />
<br />
==Geregistreerde kamers==<br />
Geregistreerde kamers kunnen de +i kamermode toevoegen aan de [[NL/Mlock|ChanServ MLOCK]] instelling van het kanaal, zodat die automatisch ingesteld wordt (en niet toegestaan zal worden om de mode te verwijderen) gedurende het 'openen' van het kanaal (wanneer de eerste gebruiker het kanaal binnenkomt).<br />
Echter, aangezien geen enkele kanaalmode effectief is wanneer een kamer nog geen gebruikers heeft, kan de eerste gebruiker die het kanaal binnenkomt, dit doen zonder uitgenodigd te worden (aangezien +i pas gezet wordt ''nadat'' de eerste chatter binnenkomt.<br />
Dit kan omzeild worden door een IRC Operator in #help te vragen om de ChannelKeeper bot aan de kamer toe te voegen om het kanaal te allen tijde open te houden.<br />
<br />
Registreerde chatters met de juiste rechten kunnen ook het '''''/CHANSERV INVITE #kamernaam''''' commando gebruiken om zichzelf uit te nodigen tot het kanaal. Zie de volgende secties voor details over wat de juiste rechten zijn. Bijvoorbeeld, om jezelf uit te nodigen in het #onzeStafledenKanaal, kan je tikken:<br />
/CHANSERV INVITE #onzeStafledenKanaal<br />
Dit kan ''alleen'' gebruikt worden om jezelf uit te nodigen, en niet anderen.<br />
<br />
===Extra voordelen voor geregistreerde kamers===<br />
* Je kan +i toevoegen aan de [[NL/Mlock|ChanServ MLOCK]] instelling van het kanaal.<br />
* Je kan de ChannelKeeper bot aanvragen om je kamer te allen tijde open te houden, zodat de +i mode ook effectief is als er nog geen 'echte' chatters in je kamer zitten.<br />
* CHANSERV INVITE kan gebruikt worden door geregistreerde gebruikers met de juiste rechten om zichzelf uit te nodigen tot het kanaal.<br />
<br />
===Extra nadelen voor geregistreerde kamers===<br />
* Access levels moeten worden beheerd.<br />
<br />
===Gebruikmakend van xOP systeem===<br />
Als je het xOP ChanServ gebruikersbeheer systeem gebruikt (wat standaard is voor nieuwe registreerde kamers), dan kan je mensen aan de AOP lijst toevoegen om ze toe te staan om zichzelf uit te nodigen tot het kanaal via ChanServ:<br />
/CHANSERV AOP #kamernaam ADD nickname<br />
Bijvoorbeeld, om JackDaniels aan de AOP lijst van #onzeStafledenKanaal toe te voegen, voer je dit uit:<br />
/CHANSERV AOP #onzeStafledenKanaal ADD JackDaniels<br />
<br />
Waarna JackDaniels zichzelf met:<br />
/CHANSERV INVITE #onzeStafledenKanaal<br />
kan uitnodigen tot het kanaal door ChanServ (als BOTSERV SET SYMBIOSIS ingesteld is op ON en er een BotServ bot aangewezen is voor het kanaal, dan komt de uitnodiging van de aangewezen BotServ bot).<br />
<br />
====Extra nadelen voor xOP====<br />
* Het gebruik van CHANSERV INVITE kan alleen maar toegewezen worden aan gebruikers met AOP status of hoger.<br />
<br />
===Gebruikmakend van het ACCESS systeem===<br />
Als je gebruik maakt van het [[NL/Levels|ACCESS LEVELS]] systeem in plaats van het xOP systeem, dan heb je iets meer controle over wie je toegang geeft tot het ChanServ INVITE commando waarmee chatters zichzelf tot een kamer kunnen uitnodigen.<br />
Voor meer informatie over hoe je het [[NL/Levels|ACCESS LEVELS]] systeem kan activeren door het uitschakelen van het xOP systeem, lees a.u.b. het [[NL/Levels|hoofdartikel over access levels]].<br />
<br />
Met de standaard access levels kan je een gebruiker een minimum niveau van 5 toewijzen via je kamers ChanServ Access lijst:<br />
/CHANSERV ACCESS #kamernaam ADD gebruikersnaam niveau<br />
Bijvoorbeeld om JackDaniels niveau 5 toegang te geven op het #drankWinkel kanaal, kan je het volgende commando uitvoeren:<br />
/CHANSERV ACCESS #drankWinkel ADD JackDaniels 5<br />
<br />
Je kan er ook voor kiezen om het minimaal benodigde niveau voor het ChanServ INVITE commando te verlagen met:<br />
/CHANSERV LEVELS #kamernaam SET INVITE minNiveau<br />
Bijvoorbeeld om iedereen met minimaal access niveau 1 toegang te geven tot het INVITE commando voor de kamer #drankWinkel, gebruik je:<br />
/CHANSERV LEVELS #drankWinkel SET INVITE 1<br />
<br />
Nu kan iedereen met toegangsniveau 1 of hoger het INVITE commando gebruiken.<br />
<br />
Bijvoorbeeld:<br />
/CHANSERV ACCESS #drankWinkel ADD JackDaniels 1<br />
zal nu JackDaniels toestaan om ''/CHANSERV INVITE #drankWinkel'' te gebruiken, zonder hem ook gelijk KICK/OP/etc rechten te geven (tenminste met de standaard chanserv levels instellingen)<br />
<br />
====Extra voordelen voor ACCESS====<br />
* Het gebruik van CHANSERV INVITE kan toegewezen worden aan gebruikers met het minimale niveau dat je zelf instelt.<br />
<br />
=ChanServ Restricted=<br />
Met de ChanServ RESTRICTED instelling kan je mensen die geen toegang hebben tot je kanaal, automatisch laten kick-bannen.<br />
Dit stel je in met:<br />
/CHANSERV SET #kamernaam RESTRICTED [ON|OFF]<br />
Bijvoorbeeld, om de ChanServ RESTRICTED instelling voor de kamer #drankWinkel te activeren, gebruik je:<br />
/CHANSERV SET #drankWinkel RESTRICTED ON<br />
<br />
Van nu af aan zullen alleen geregisteerde chatters die in de access/toegangslijsten staan, toegang hebben tot het kanaal. Als de SECURE setting van de kamer ook ON is, dan moeten ze zelfs geidentificeerd zijn voor hun nickname via NickServ; staat die instelling op OFF, dan worden ze ook toegelaten als ze [[#Over_semi-geidentificeerd|semi-geidentificeerd]] zijn.<br />
<br />
==Over semi-geidentificeerd==<br />
Je bent semi-geidentificeerd wanneer:<br />
# Je een geregistreerde gebruikersnaam hebt.<br />
# Je NIET geidentificeerd bent voor die gebruikersnaam via /NICKSERV IDENTIFY<br />
# Je NickServ SECURE instelling op OFF staat (Let Op! Dit staat standaard op ON)<br />
# Je verbonden bent van een host die overeenkomt met 1 van de hostmasks die in je /NICKSERV ACCESS LIST lijst staat.<br />
<br />
Kamers zullen je alleen de juiste rechten geven als diens ChanServ SECURE setting op OFF staat. Als de ChanServ SECURE setting van het kanaal op ON staat, dan moeten de gebruikers normaal identificeren met /NICKSERV IDENTIFY voordat ze gezien worden als een geregistreerde gebruiker.<br />
<br />
==gebruikmakend van xOP systeem==<br />
Je moet ''geregistreerde'' gebruikers toevoegen aan 1 van de VOP/HOP/AOP/SOP lijsten om ze toegang te geven to het kanaal. De syntaxis voor dit commando is:<br />
/CHANSERV [VOP|HOP|AOP|SOP] #kamernaam ADD gebruikersnaam<br />
Om bijvoorbeeld de geregistreerde voorbeeldgebruiker JackDaniels aan de VOP (auto-voice) lijst van het #drankWinkel kanaal toe te voegen, voer je uit:<br />
/CHANSERV VOP #drankWinkel ADD JackDaniels<br />
<br />
Aangezien het minimaal benodigde niveau VOP is, stel ik voor om ze gewoon als VOP toe te voegen, tenzij ze ook operator rechten nodig hebben.<br />
<br />
Je kan de toegang weer intrekken met:<br />
/CHANSERV [VOP|HOP|AOP|SOP] #kamernaam DEL gebruikersnaam<br />
Om bijvoorbeeld JohnnieWalker's toegang tot #drankWinkel te ontzeggen (als hij eerder aan de VOP lijst was toegevoegd, typ je:<br />
/CHANSERV VOP #drankWinkel DEL JohnnieWalker<br />
Gevolgd door een vlugge '''''/KICK #drankWinkel JohnnieWalker Maak dat je wegkomt, wij willen alleen echte whisky hier!''''' als de chatter nog steeds in de kamer is.<br />
<br />
==gebruikmakend van ACCESS systeem==<br />
Als je het ACCESS LEVELS systeem gebruikt, dan moet je de ''geregistreerde'' gebruikers toevoegen aan de ChanServ ACCESS lijst met een toegangsniveau van minimaal 1 om ze toegang te geven tot het kanaal. Dit commando heeft de volgende syntaxis:<br />
/CHANSERV ACCESS #kamernaam ADD gebruikersnaam toegangsniveau<br />
Om bijvoorbeeld WilliamLawson toegang te geven to #drankWinkel met toegangsniveau 1, voer je uit:<br />
/CHANSERV ACCESS #drankWinkel ADD WilliamLawson 1<br />
<br />
Aangezien het minimaal benodigde niveau 1 is, stel ik voor om gebruikers die alleen maar toegang moeten hebben tot het kanaal en geen andere rechten nodig hebben, ze alleen maar niveau 1 toe te wijzen.<br />
Wanneer ze meer rechten nodig hebben, dan kan je hun toegangsniveau verhogen tot het benodigde level, lees het [[NL/Levels|Access Levels artikel]] voor details.<br />
<br />
Als je iemands rechten wilt intrekken, gebruik dan:<br />
/CHANSERV ACCESS #kamernaam DEL gebruikersnaam<br />
Wil je bijvoorbeeld Tequila's toegang to #drankWinkel ontzeggen, voer dan uit:<br />
/CHANSERV ACCESS #drankWinkel DEL Tequila<br />
<br />
Let op dat de ACCESS lijst alleen aangepast kan worden door gebruikers met een minimaal gebruikersniveau dat toegang heeft tot ACC-CHANGE (dit level is aanpasbaar voor gebruikers met toegang to SET via ''/CHANSERV LEVELS #kamernaam SET ACC-CHANGE gebruikersniveau''). Standaard is dit niveau 10.<br />
<br />
===NOJOIN Level===<br />
Er is ook een NOJOIN level dat je kan aanpassen via ChanServ:<br />
/CHANSERV LEVELS #kamernaam SET NOJOIN minNiveau<br />
Standaard, op een nieuw aangemaakt kanaal, is dit ingesteld op level -2, wat iedereen toelaat tot het kanaal, tenzij ze een userlevel van -2 of lager hebben.<br />
<br />
Echter, wanneer je RESTRICTED inschakelt, zal het automatisch veranderd worden naar 0, en dus iedereen die NIET op de ACCESS lijst staat met een level van 1 of hoger de toegang weigeren.<br /><br />
Je kan dit nog steeds handmatig aanpassen naar -2 nadat je RESTRICTED ON hebt ingesteld, met:<br />
/CHANSERV LEVELS #kamernaam SET NOJOIN -2<br />
Waardoor iedereen je kanaal binnenkan, tenzij ze op de ChanServ ACCESS lijst staan met een level van -2 of lager.<br />
<br />
Begrijp dat de RESTRICTED instelling blijkbaar werkt als een schakelaar voor de NOJOIN level; zelfs met RESTRICTED op OFF, kan je nog steeds toegang tot je kanaal beperken via het NOJOIN level. Dit commando lijkt alleen maar toegevoegd te zijn om te dienen als een schakelaar voor kamers die het xOP systeem gebruiken.<br />
<br />
Na enig testen hebben we afgeleid dat:<br />
RESTRICTED ON de NOJOIN setting forceert naar 0 als het huidige NOJOIN level negatief is.<br /><br />
RESTRICTED OFF zal de NOJOIN setting forceren naar -2 als het huidige NOJOIN niveau gelijk is aan of hoger is dan 0<br />
<br />
Hier is een overzicht van wat we getest hebben met de opgegeven NOJOIN niveaus:<br />
<br />
NOJOIN -2 -> <br />
Kickbant:<br />
# alleen diegene die op de ACCESS lijst staan met een level van -2 of lager<br />
Geeft toegang aan:<br />
# iedereen die op de ACCESS lijst staat met niveau -1 of hoger<br />
# iedereen die niet op de ACCESS lijst staat.<br />
<br />
NOJOIN -1 -> <br />
Kickbant:<br />
# iedereen die niet geidentificeerd is voor zijn/haar gebruikersnaam<br />
# iedereen met een gebruikersnaam op de ACCESS lijst, maar die niet geidentifieerd is voor zijn/haar gebruikersnaam, noch semi-geidentificeerd.<br />
Geeft toegang aan: <br />
# iedereen die geidentificeerd is voor zijn/haar gebruikersnaam<br />
# iedereen die op de ChanServ ACCESS lijst staat met een nickname die semi-geidentificeerd is (tenzij de ChanServ SECURE instelling van het kanaal op ON staat)<br />
<br />
NOJOIN 0 -> <br />
Kickbant:<br />
# iedereen die NIET op de ACCESS lijst staat<br />
# iedereen die op de ACCESS lijst staat met een negatief niveau<br />
Geeft toegang aan:<br />
# iedereen die op de ACCESS lijst staat met een positief niveau<br />
<br />
==Voordelen==<br />
* Je kan een erg stricte manier hebben om aan te geven welke gebruikers je wel en niet op je kanaal wilt hebben<br />
* Al je gebruikers moeten geregistreerd zijn<br />
==Cons==<br />
* Je moet handmatig elke gebruiker toevoegen aan de ACCESS lijst van je kamer<br />
* Gebruikers moeten geregistreerd zijn<br />
* Gebruikers moeten erop letten dat ze geidentificeerd zijn voor hun gebruikersnaam (of [[#Over_semi-geidentificeerd|semi-geidentificeerd]] zijn als de SECURE setting van het kanaal op OFF staat) ''voordat'' ze de kamer binnenkomen. Anders zullen ze automatisch gebanned worden, en tenzij ze toegang hebben tot het /CHANSERV UNBAN commandom zullen ze nog steeds niet binnen kunnen komen daarna.</div>

<hr />
<div><div style="padding-bottom: 10px;height: 15px;"><span style="position: absolute;display:inline;left: 10px;height: 15px;">'''Nederlandse versie van [[Applet]]'''</span><span style="display:inline;text-align:right;right:10px;position: absolute;height: 15px;">(''Go to the ''[[Applet|''English version of this article'']])</span></div><br />
<br />
== Over ==<br />
Een chat-applet is een client (programma) waarmee verbonden kan worden naar ons [[IRC]]-netwerk.<br />
Het is geschreven in Java, een cross-platform programmeertaal.<br />
Er zijn verscheidene java irc-applets te vinden op het internet, zoals [http://pjirc.com PJIrc] en [http://snirc.sourceforge.net/ snIRC].<br /><br />
Op Chat4All bieden we een [http://www.chat4all.be/nl_addchathomepage.html#Chatkamer_code_generator_ bieden we html code generator] voor ons geregistreerde, aangepaste JPilot applet aan die je op je website kan plaatsen, en tevens een [http://chat.chat4all.net/flashgen.php?l=2 generator voor html-code voor onze nieuwe flash-chat]. JPilot (jpilot.com) was een betaalde applet, maar is sinds 2009 opgeheven en niet meer te downloaden.<br />
<br />
== Download ==<br />
Aangezien het applet geschreven is in Java, dien je de Java Runtime Environment geinstalleerd te hebben.<br />
Aangezien Microsoft de Java Runtime Environment sinds Windows XP niet meer aanbiedt/levert, dien je het te downloaden vanaf de website van de hoofdaanbieder, SUN.<br />
Je kan de Java Runtime Environment downloaden vanaf [http://java.com/nl/download/index.jsp SUN's Java.com download page].<br />
Dit zal je in staat stellen java applets vanuit je webbrowser te kunnen draaien.<br />
<br />
== Probleemoplossing ==<br />
=== Grijs scherm ===<br />
''Mijn gebruikers zien alleen een grijs scherm of een rood kruis! Jullie applet werkt niet!!''<br /><br />
Het applet werkt wel, maar uw (klagende) gebruikers hebben echter de benodigde Java Runtime Environment niet geinstalleerd, gebruiken een te oude versie, of hebben niet op Ja/Yes geklikt wanneer er om toestemming werd gevraagd in een popup of het applet gestart mocht worden.<br /><br />
Zie graag [[#Download|de Download sectie]] op deze pagina voor meer info over waar je de Java Runtime Environment kan downloaden.<br />
<br />
=== Geen Popup ===<br />
''Mijn gebruikers krijgen geen popup scherm, waarin gevraagd wordt om het applet te accepteren! Deze chat werkt niet!''<br /><br />
Het is niet de chat die niet werkt, maar je browser en/of popup blocker die niet naar behoren werkt.<br /><br />
Vanwege (vergaande) restricties in Microsoft Internet Explorer, of een te hoge setting van je popup blocker (Google Toolbar bijvoorbeeld), kan het zijn dat de applet popup wordt geblokkeerd, en dus niet kan worden getoond.<br />
<br />
Oplossing 1: Zet je popup blocker uit, verlaag je browser's beveilingings niveau en/of voeg chat4all toe aan de whitelist. (Zie de browser/blocker help info over hoe dit te bereiken<br />
<br />
Oplossing 2: Probeer een alternatieve browser, zoals [http://opera.com Opera Browser] of [http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/ Mozilla's Firefox].<br />
<br />
=== Java uitgeschakeld ===<br />

== Over ==<br />
Een chat-applet is een client (programma) waarmee verbonden kan worden naar ons [[IRC]]-netwerk.<br />
Het is geschreven in Java, een cross-platform programmeertaal.<br />
Er zijn verscheidene java irc-applets te vinden op het internet, zoals [http://pjirc.com PJIrc] en [http://snirc.sourceforge.net/ snIRC].<br /><br />
Op Chat4All bieden we een [http://www.chat4all.be/nl_addchathomepage.html#Chatkamer_code_generator_ bieden we html code generator] voor ons geregistreerde, aangepaste JPilot applet aan die je op je website kan plaatsen, en tevens een [http://chat.chat4all.net/flashgen.php?l=2 generator voor html-code voor onze nieuwe flash-chat]. JPilot (jpilot.com) was een betaalde applet, maar is sinds 2009 opgeheven en niet meer te downloaden.<br />
<br />
== Download ==<br />
Aangezien het applet geschreven is in Java, dien je de Java Runtime Environment geinstalleerd te hebben.<br />
Aangezien Microsoft de Java Runtime Environment sinds Windows XP niet meer aanbiedt/levert, dien je het te downloaden vanaf de website van de hoofdaanbieder, SUN.<br />
Je kan de Java Runtime Environment downloaden vanaf [http://java.com/nl/download/index.jsp SUN's Java.com download page].<br />
Dit zal je in staat stellen java applets vanuit je webbrowser te kunnen draaien.<br />
<br />
== Probleemoplossing ==<br />
=== Grijs scherm ===<br />
''Mijn gebruikers zien alleen een grijs scherm of een rood kruis! Jullie applet werkt niet!!''<br /><br />
Het applet werkt wel, maar uw (klagende) gebruikers hebben echter de benodigde Java Runtime Environment niet geinstalleerd, gebruiken een te oude versie, of hebben niet op Ja/Yes geklikt wanneer er om toestemming werd gevraagd in een popup of het applet gestart mocht worden.<br /><br />
Zie graag [[#Download|de Download sectie]] op deze pagina voor meer info over waar je de Java Runtime Environment kan downloaden.<br />
<br />
=== Geen Popup ===<br />
''Mijn gebruikers krijgen geen popup scherm, waarin gevraagd wordt om het applet te accepteren! Deze chat werkt niet!''<br /><br />
Het is niet de chat die niet werkt, maar je browser en/of popup blocker die niet naar behoren werkt.<br /><br />
Vanwege (vergaande) restricties in Microsoft Internet Explorer, of een te hoge setting van je popup blocker (Google Toolbar bijvoorbeeld), kan het zijn dat de applet popup wordt geblokkeerd, en dus niet kan worden getoond.<br />
<br />
Oplossing 1: Zet je popup blocker uit, verlaag je browser's beveilingings niveau en/of voeg chat4all toe aan de whitelist. (Zie de browser/blocker help info over hoe dit te bereiken<br />
<br />
Oplossing 2: Probeer een alternatieve browser, zoals [http://opera.com Opera Browser] of [http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/ Mozilla's Firefox].<br />

== About ==<br />
The chat-applet is a client (program) to connect to our [[IRC]]-network. It is written in Java, a cross-platform programming language.

At Chat4All we [http://chat4all.org/eng_homepage.html offer a code generator] to use our registered, modified JPilot applet on your website. JPilot (jpilot.com) was a paid irc-applet solution, which ceased to exist some time during 200, and is no longer available for download. We now also have a more modern flash chat solution, where you can also [http://chat.chat4all.net/flashgen.php generate code] for.<br />

== Download ==<br />
Since the applet is written in the Java programming language, you need to have the Java Runtime Environment installed.<br /><br />
Since Microsoft isn't supplying Java anymore since the release of Windows XP, you will need to download it from the main manufacturer, [http://sun.com SUN].<br /><br />
You can download the Java Runtime Environment from [http://java.com/en/download/index.jsp SUN's Java.com download page].<br /><br />

== About ==<br />
The chat-applet is a client (program) to connect to our [[IRC]]-network. It is written in Java, a cross-platform programming language. There are several java irc-applets out there, such as [http://pjirc.com PJIrc] and [http://snirc.sourceforge.net/ snIRC]. At Chat4All we [http://chat4all.org/eng_homepage.html offer code to use our registered, modified JPilot applet on your website]. JPilot (jpilot.com) was a paid irc-applet solution, which ceased to exist some time during 200, and is no longer available for download.<br />
<br />
== Download ==<br />
Since the applet is written in the Java programming language, you need to have the Java Runtime Environment installed.<br /><br />
Since Microsoft isn't supplying Java anymore since the release of Windows XP, you will need to download it from the main manufacturer, [http://sun.com SUN].<br /><br />
You can download the Java Runtime Environment from [http://java.com/en/download/index.jsp SUN's Java.com download page].<br /><br />
This will allow you to run Java applets from your browser.<br />
<br />
== Troubleshooting ==<br />
=== Grey screen ===<br />
''My users only see a grey screen or a red cross! Your applet isn't working!!''<br /><br />
The applet itself is working, but your (complaining) users either have not installed the required Java Runtime Environment, are using a too old version, or have not clicked on YES when asked in the popup to allow the applet to run.<br /><br />
Please see [[#Download|the Download section]] on this page for more info about where to download the Java Runtime Environment.<br />
<br />
=== No Popup ===<br />
''My users don't see a popup window asking them to accept the applet! Your applet sucks!''<br /><br />
It isn't the applet that sucks, it is your browser and/or popupblocker that isn't working properly.<br /><br />
Due to (excessive) restrictions in Microsoft Internet Explorer or a too high setting of your popup blocker (Google toolbar for instance), the popup asking whether or not the applet may be allowed to run, is being blocked and thus not shown.<br />
<br />
Solution 1? Disable your popup blocker, lower your browser's security level and/or add chat4all to your whitelist (refer to the manual/help file of your popup blocker and/or browser for info on how to do this).<br />
<br />
Solution 2? Try a different browser such as [http://opera.com Opera Browser] or [http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/ Mozilla's Firefox].<br />
<br />
=== Java disabled ===<br />

<br />
== Over ==<br />
Een chat-applet is een client (programma) waarmee verbonden kan worden naar ons [[IRC]]-netwerk.<br />
Het is geschreven in Java, een cross-platform programmeertaal.<br />
Er zijn verscheidene java irc-applets te vinden op het internet, zoals [http://pjirc.com PJIrc] en [http://snirc.sourceforge.net/ snIRC].<br /><br />
Op Chat4All [http://www.chat4all.be/nl_addchathomepage.html#Chatkamer_code_generator_ bieden we html-code voor onze geregistreerde, aangepaste JPilot applet aan die je op je website kan plaatsen] en een [http://chat.chat4all.net/flashgen.php?l=2 generator voor html-code voor onze nieuwe flash-chat]. JPilot (jpilot.com) was een betaalde applet, maar is sinds 2009 opgeheven en niet meer te downloaden.<br />
<br />
== Download ==<br />
Aangezien het applet geschreven is in Java, dien je de Java Runtime Environment geinstalleerd te hebben.<br />
Aangezien Microsoft de Java Runtime Environment sinds Windows XP niet meer aanbiedt/levert, dien je het te downloaden vanaf de website van de hoofdaanbieder, SUN.<br />
Je kan de Java Runtime Environment downloaden vanaf [http://java.com/nl/download/index.jsp SUN's Java.com download page].<br />
Dit zal je in staat stellen java applets vanuit je webbrowser te kunnen draaien.<br />
<br />
== Probleemoplossing ==<br />
=== Grijs scherm ===<br />
''Mijn gebruikers zien alleen een grijs scherm of een rood kruis! Jullie applet werkt niet!!''<br /><br />
Het applet werkt wel, maar uw (klagende) gebruikers hebben echter de benodigde Java Runtime Environment niet geinstalleerd, gebruiken een te oude versie, of hebben niet op Ja/Yes geklikt wanneer er om toestemming werd gevraagd in een popup of het applet gestart mocht worden.<br /><br />
Zie graag [[#Download|de Download sectie]] op deze pagina voor meer info over waar je de Java Runtime Environment kan downloaden.<br />
<br />
=== Geen Popup ===<br />
''My users don't see a popup window asking them to accept the applet! Your applet sucks!''<br /><br />
It isn't the applet that sucks, it is your browser and/or popupblocker that isn't working properly.<br /><br />
Due to (excessive) restrictions in Microsoft Internet Explorer or a too high setting of your popup blocker (Google toolbar for instance), the popup asking whether or not the applet may be allowed to run, is being blocked and thus not shown.<br />
<br />
Solution 1? Disable your popup blocker, lower your browser's security level and/or add chat4all to your whitelist (refer to the manual/help file of your popup blocker and/or browser for info on how to do this).<br />
<br />
Solution 2? Try a different browser such as [http://opera.com Opera Browser] or [http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/ Mozilla's Firefox].<br />

<div>==[[Chat4All]] Goes Wiki==<br />
<br />
Several topics will be served [[image:wink.gif]]<br />
<br />
The whole Idea behind this site is that YOU can participate in the content of the site and tutorials.<br />
Every logged in person can edit/create a page.<br />
<br />
Since we are with a steady userbase, we would like to provide some help to our chatters. Of course it's impossible for us ([[IRCops]]) to assist you 24/7 in <nowiki>#</nowiki>[[help]]. That's why the idea for the WIKI was born. [[http://wikipedia.org Wiki]] is a nice tool to help us write manuals and [[Chat4all_FAQ:Community_Portal|FAQ]]'s and such more [[image:wink.gif|Wink]]<br />
<br /><br />
visit our [[Chat4all_FAQ:Community_Portal|FAQ]] for more information on how to help us with your contributions. There you'll find a page with the wiki text shortcuts.<br />
<br />
At this moment, we are working on a mIRC script for our [[Chat4All]] network. Anyone who would like to participate, can send me an email at rafe[AT]chat4all.be with your username on this site & what you would like to do.<br />
