Protect your nickname on Irc
Well, it may happen that you enter the channel and everyone is asleep, and you can't speak because the channel is moderated or need to set something in the topic that needs urgent attention. For that you could not do because you had not a registered channel nick.
Please get a registered channel nick.
I will teach how to do so now:
Get that registered nick!
This is a one time thing to do
- Go to your status window to type these commands (you don't want the password and emailadress you type to be read by everybody in the channel, if you forget typing the slash '/' or press ctrl-enter instead of enter)
- You need this command: /MSG NS REGISTER e-mail
- You can give the command /MSG NS HELP REGISTER if you want to read explanation
- You really need a real email adress to use this (it is safe, it does nog bring you spam).
So if i'm Princess_ i would go and register my nick by puting on prompt /msg ns register princess_ diana@aol.com After that you will receive a email with a password.
Logging in to Irc 'authorizing' yourself
This is a thing to do every time you log on
- To make yourself known as the one and only real you, you'll have to write this line when you login to irc:
- preferably in status window, type: /MSG NS@services.galaxynet.org AUTH rnick password
- You can give the command /MSG NS HELP AUTH if you want to read explanation
The first time Princess_ would type that manually, and typed something that looked like:
- <Princess_> /msg ns@services.galaxynet.org auth Princess_ dh3!kd33
Making everyday life easier
Because Princess_ was not dumb, she added the AUTH line his(!) startup irc script.
- for newer mirc: "connect"->"options"->"perform..."->
- Enable perform on connect
- Perfom Network: Galaxynet
- perform commands: /msg ns@services.galaxynet.org auth Princess_ dh3!kd33
Changing passwords
Now because the password was dificult to memorize Princess_ eventually decided to change it after authenticating with the command:
/MSG NS PASS old_password new_password
so he wrote /msg ns pass dh3!kd33 mypasswd1. Easy right? So everyone do it!
After that you can ask to get an autoop from Q once you enter the channel (i know you always wanted that) More info on how to automaticaly authenticate your nick using mIRC
