Setting up InfoServ

InfoServ provides the ability to send a mass-notification to your network and send news to users when they connect to the network.

InfoServ Block​

The infoserv{} block contains settings specific to the InfoServ service bot.

A fully configured infoserv{} block may look like:

infoserv {
    nick = "InfoServ";
    user = "InfoServ";
    host = "misconfigured.network";
    real = "Information Service";
    logoninfo_count = 3;
};

Services Bot Options​

InfoServ supports all standard services bot options.

logoninfo_count​

The number of InfoServ messages a user will see upon connect.

If there are more than this number, the user will be able to see the rest with /msg InfoServ list.

Example: logoninfo_count = 3;

Modules​

InfoServ is entirely contained within the modules/infoserv/main module. By loading this module, you will enable InfoServ and all available InfoServ commands.
