NickServ Commands.
by fOotLoOse
Info
USAGE: /NickServ INFO nick
Use this command to find out information about a registered nick.
Register
USAGE: /NickServ REGISTER PASSWORD EMAIL@ADDRESS
Use this command to reserve a nickname for your use by registering it with NickServ.
You must include a valid email address; when you register your nick, an email is
sent to you by services containing an AUTH command which you must issue to
complete the registration.
EXAMPLE: /NickServ REGISTER 97854pass^%$@word you@email.com
Auth
USAGE: /NickServ AUTH nick Authorization Number
This command is used when you have registered your nick or changed your email
address for your nick.
EXAMPLE: /msg NickServ@services.dal.net AUTH Nick1 23490843654564750
Identify
USAGE: /NickServ Identify nick password
This command is used when you get on IRC to identify to NickServ for your nick;
in this way, NickServ knows that you are supposed to have access to that nick
and everything that the nick implies (ops in places, status in channels).
EXAMPLE: /NickServ IDENTIFY 97854pass^%$@word
EXAMPLE: /NickServ IDENTIFY Nick 97854pass^%$@word (if you're not using Nick)
Access
ACCESS Add
USAGE: /NickServ Access Add mask
EXAMPLE: /NickServ ACCESS ADD userid@myisp.net
Use this command to add a mask to your nick's access mask list.
ACCESS Del
USAGE: /NickServ Access DEL mask
EXAMPLE: /NickServ ACCESS DEL userid@myisp.net
Use this command to del a mask from your nick's access mask list.
ACCESS List
USAGE: /NickServ Access List
Use this command to view your nick's access mask list.
ID
USAGE: /NickServ ID nick
When you first get into a nick, either through having just connected or using
the /nick command, NickServ assigns you a random 9-digit number to keep track of
who you are. If you change nicks, the number changes. If the value of ID
for a nick is 0, the nick isn't being used. This command is really only potentially
useful to bots, scripts or programs that need to know if the nick really is the
same as it was earlier (with no nick changes).
Ghost
USAGE: /NickServ Ghost nick password
EXAMPLE: /NickServ GHOST YourNick YourPassword
Sometimes on IRC, you gets disconnected, the server doesn't realize right away
that you aren't really at your keyboard (the console) anymore, and thinks
that your client is still there. When this happens, you come back on IRC to
find that your nick is already taken. If you do a /whois on yourself, you'll
find that it's YOU! It's a ghost!
Recover
USAGE: /NickServ RECOVER nick password
When you get on IRC and find that someone else is using your nick, you have two
ways you can get it back: you can ghost them (not necessarily the best idea)
or you can RECOVER your nick through NickServ (better idea). The first way kills
them off IRC, but they can frequently get back on IRC and back into your nick
before you can switch to it (because of lag delays or whatever).
The better way is to use the RECOVER command to kill them out of your nick and
places an "enforcer" into the nick as a place holder. This enforcer is a way to
keep them from just jumping right back into your nick before you can.
Release
USAGE: /NickServ Release nick password
In order to reclaim your nick, you issue the RELEASE command to get the enforcer
out of your nick. Then you can switch into your nick without problems using the
/nick YourNick command
DROP NICK
USAGE: /NickServ Drop nick [DropCode]
EXAMPLE :/NickServ drop Yournick (When you issue this command you will be given a CODE)
EXAMPLE: /NickServ DROP YourNick 7564983467
If you no longer want to keep control of a nick, this command will allow you
to give the nick up. It removes the nickname from NickServ's database so anyone
can use it.
SET EMAIL
USAGE: /NickServ Set Email NewEmail@address
This command is used to change the email address set on your nick.
SET ENFORCE
USAGE: /NickServ Set Enforce [On | Off]
In order to prevent someone from using your nick, you can set Enforce
On for your nick. When this setting is enabled, whoever is using your
nick,NickServ will change it to Guest unless they issue the correct PASSWORD.
SET NoMemo
USAGE: /NickServ Set NoMemo [On | Off]
If you do not want to receive any memos sent to this nick, turn this option on.
This is usually used for nicks that receive a lot of memos from unknown sources.
SET NoOp
USAGE: /NickServ Set NoOp [On | Off]
This command is used if you do not wish to be added to channel's AOP/SOP lists
without your permission.
SET Passwd
USAGE: /NickServ Set Passwd CurrentPassword NewPassword
Use this command whenever you need or want to change your password for your nick.
NOTE: The command is PASSWD (without the "or" between the "W" and the "D"),
not PASSWORD.
SET Secure
USAGE: /NickServ Set Secure [On | Off]
This command prevents the use of the masks in the nick's access list.
SET ShowEmail
USAGE: /NickServ Set SHOWEMAIL [On | Off]
This command lets you allow people to view your email address you have set on your nick.
SET URL
USAGE: /NickServ Set URL link
This is an informational tag only; all it does is adds a line into your
/NickServ Info.There are two common ways to use this: putting your email
address in it, or providing your home page's (or perhaps a favorite) URL.
It cannot be longer than 64 characters long.
