| Summary | 0003827: Оmission? Manipulation with channel mode k: /mode #chan -k any_char | ||||
| Description | When operating with channel mode "k", I found out that after the setting of the channel key, it can be turned off using a command: "/mode #chan -k any_char" mIRC debug mode log: 21:32:56 -> hostel4.psu.bynets.org mode #Exclusive +k Jipurew 21:32:56 <- :[email protected] MODE #Exclusive +k Jipurew 21:33:12 -> hostel4.psu.bynets.org mode #Exclusive -k 21:33:17 -> hostel4.psu.bynets.org mode #Exclusive -k $ 21:33:17 <- :[email protected] MODE #Exclusive -k Jipurew Document rfc2812 shows in an example: "/mode #chan -k previously_set_key" Is it some kind of omission, or what? And does rfc allow to turn off this mode using command: "/mode #chan -k" ? | ||||

Unreal does not comply with RFC 2812, only RFC 1459 EDIT: In my opinion this is really unneccessary, due to the fact the key is available to all operators on the channel, and it requires operator status to be removed. So what's to stop a channel operator from just putting in the correct key to remove it? |
|
|
So it's possible to change a code, that removing channel key occured by command: "/mode #chan -k" , instead of command "/mode #chan -k previously_set_key" or "/mode #chan -k any_char(s)" ? |
|
|
IIRC because of the way channel modes work, if they need a parameter to be set, they need one to be unset. This also may be required by RFC 1459 |
|
|
This is common[*], and not something that's going to be changed. It's also not necessary, as anyone who can -k is already able to know the key, so there's no need for a "correct key requirement", it doesn't help anyone, it can only annoy people / perhaps even break things (shouldn't, of course). Oh, and indeed, we (just like any other irc server except ircnet) see RFC1459 as the only real RFC. [*] Quick google shows for example http://ircnet.irchelp.org/channelmodes.html |
