Hello,

Can anyone help me with recovering a password for my channel #rsrtripradio
I created this channel years ago and can't remember the password. Is there a way to reset it on my own?

Thanks

ChanServ SENDPASS
The SENDPASS command will allow a user to request a password reset on his or her channel. The user will receive an email with an AUTH code that, when entered, will reset the channel password to a new random password. This command should not be relied on as an alternative to managing your own passwords, but only as a "backup" in case of extreme situations. Please remember that you are still responsible for remembering your password(s) and keeping them private. Do not share your password(s) with anyone.
Command: /ChanServ SENDPASS (#channel) (email address)

-- snip --
IF the server is setup right

i don't think my irc server would do that.
nope it don't! just tried it.

and now it works because i installed sendmail because that's what my services uses.

So there is the answer. After all these years someone decided to register my channel when my guard was down. Kinda lame don't you think? Oh well. Only two ways to deal with this. Create another channel or remove myself from the the IRC network.

So..... why didn't *YOU* register your channel during "all those

Kinda lame don't you think?

Not really, happens all the time. Take better care of your channel and
it doesn't happen.

Oh well. Only two ways to deal with this. Create another
channel or remove myself from the the IRC network.

Sounds right.

To be fair, there was a time I switched between services programs which

Could be right. I've had issues with some personal channels in the past
too (on Freenode). I write it off to "IRC Life". Sometimes, s**t
happens, and none of this comes with any guarantees.

It turns out that this is not a password issue. Someone decided to register my channel. Now someone has deleted my NICK and registered it since I said something last night? What do you think the chances are that I will get my nick or my channel back? It' pretty messed up to see this happening.

why did you call it your channel if you never registered it?
why would someone want to squat on such an obscure channel name?

And are you sure you just didn't register your nick and forget?
perhaps nelgin did it because he was trying to be helpful.

you should talk to an irc operator. like someone with real access. not just an +o

do you even WANT to be connected to that ircd?
you can just run your own ircd and not be connected.

■ Synchronet ■ ::: BBSES.info - free BBS services :::

I did register it. NickServ and ChanServ were offline for a while. hit an miss it looks like. But yeah I did register. Then someone decided to register it.
I think just to be a funny guy. But I was still the only one using the channel until about a month ago when my bots started acting weird not taking commands. Then the other night someone registered my Nick which WAS registered to me. Which means they had to delete it. I can't login with that account now. I guess somebody thought it was cute and decided to be well you know THAT GUY! I don't think it's cute or funny at all. I hope THAT GUY! pulls his head out of his ass really soon. Keep in mind I remember the Services being down and offline then back online and having to register both my nick and my channel a few times. Then I was told we were not using services anymore. I remember this kind of thing going on. It was at that time my channels was taken from me. But this latest thing is a different story with my NICK. Straight up lame bullshit to me. I'm just a guy running a radio station and a BBS for fun then someone comes to ruin it. This is the shit that caused problem with IRC years ago. The wrong people with power coming along and ruining every ones fun.

I have registered the channel several times over the years. I do use services with the bot or bots I use. I am running a piece of software called ShoutIRC
to switch between DJ's and bots to run the shows. So I do need to be connected to the IRCD and servicves for it to work properly. Basically I spent close to 3 years setting all of this up and now it all went to hell and nothing works. So I have to now setup my NICK and the Dj's and all the bots again. Unless I get my stuff back.

your channel won't stay registered for YEARS if nobody is in the channel. depending on the services, it can be 30 days of inactivity or longer.

You know who to talk to if you have a problem but I wouldn't even worry about it.

you won't have any trouble and wont need ops.

I am on there right now and their nickserv is supposed to send me an email and I still haven't got it.

why don't you just disconnect from irc.synchro.net and run your ircd
on your own.

well why don't you email the operator of the IRCD?
why would you need to register the channel serveral times over the years?

if you want results email the operator of the IRCD.

Is that because you are sending email direct instead of through your isp where it won't be shot down as spam?
my irc server sent me my password using sendmail and I'm on ovh. are your services on some vps provider?

anyways, warchillin can probably just use that channel with his bots. he is able to set the topic and i'm pretty sure that's what he needs.

his shit was registered before and it either got expired or services the used junked it.

is cyan still handling that side of the irc shit? he can just give him the channel back.

none of this makes sense though. whey would someone want such an obscure channel on such an obscure irc network.

Yes, services is on a VPS service. I've complained to Microsoft several times to have the IP whitelisted and it goes in and comes out and goes in again. I didn't know Gmail was still an issue. I can look into it.

you'll never get off those lists.
once you get off one, your ip range will go right back on there because they marry the lists together and share them all.

you're better off just forwarding through your isp's email server if possible. ---
