| gnomefreak | is it too late to ban Colt7r? | 00:30 |
|---|---|---|
| gnomefreak | see #ubuntu 19:26 < Colt7r > rm -rf / | 00:30 |
| gnomefreak | 19:26 < Colt7r > :) | 00:30 |
| Seeker` | IMO, no | 00:31 |
| gnomefreak | normally if it isnt right away they complain (im not in the mood to debate stupid crap tonight | 00:32 |
| jdong | gnomefreak: I'd say ban him for it | 00:33 |
| gnomefreak | i told him not to joke like that again, lets see what he says if anything | 00:33 |
| Seeker` | gnomefreak: that doesn't make it right | 00:33 |
| jdong | ok, we'll see where that goes | 00:33 |
| === crdlb_ is now known as crdlb | ||
| jdong | aaah | 01:13 |
| Condoulo | ok, what is going on | 01:21 |
| Condoulo | I changed the port to 8001. | 01:22 |
| LjL | Condoulo: were the instructions not clear? should we improve them? | 01:22 |
| Condoulo | I have no idea whats going on | 01:23 |
| LjL | Condoulo, i assume you've read the topic of the channel you were redirected to? (otherwise you wouldn't know about port 8001, i suppose) | 01:23 |
| Condoulo | yeah, I have | 01:24 |
| Condoulo | so how would the test work? | 01:24 |
| LjL | Condoulo: oh - the test. well you hadn't asked for one yet. | 01:24 |
| LjL | it works like this | 01:24 |
| LjL | you're still online. this means you passed. | 01:25 |
| minus198 | Hi there.. I've fixed the DCC Exploit, can you unban me from #ubuntu? | 01:53 |
| LjL | minus198: let's do the test | 01:54 |
| minus198 | ok | 01:55 |
| minus198 | :D | 01:55 |
| LjL | you can join now | 01:55 |
| minus198 | Thank you :) | 01:55 |
| spr0k3t | need testing for the dccexploit | 02:30 |
| LjL | not fixed | 02:35 |
| LjL | spr0k3t: try again. | 02:35 |
| spr0k3t | nada | 02:38 |
| LjL | spr0k3t: after changing the port, you probably need to close and reopen your client. | 02:38 |
| spr0k3t | k... I'll give that a shot. | 02:39 |
| spr0k3t | question though, when was the exploit found? | 02:39 |
| LjL | years ago. | 02:39 |
| spr0k3t | weird... why wasn't the latest updates fixed in the various software? | 02:40 |
| crdlb | it's a router bug | 02:42 |
| LjL | spr0k3t: uh? this is a bug in your *router*, not in the ubuntu software | 02:42 |
| spr0k3t | router has latest firmware. | 02:42 |
| LjL | then they are stupid enough to ignore this problem apparently | 02:42 |
| spr0k3t | nods | 02:42 |
| spr0k3t | it's a bad router, not mine | 02:42 |
| spr0k3t | thanks... I'll see if it's fixed. | 02:44 |
| spr0k3t | nope | 02:45 |
| spr0k3t | if I'm not using the ubuntu server, does this effect irc.freenode.net? | 02:47 |
| LjL | spr0k3t, how can you say nope if i haven't tested you yet? =) | 02:47 |
| Hobbsee | irc.ubuntu.com poitns to freenode | 02:47 |
| LjL | yes, it affects any network, anyway | 02:47 |
| Hobbsee | he did quit and rejoin | 02:48 |
| LjL | then i don't know what more | 02:48 |
| LjL | spr0k3t, if changing the port to 8001, then quitting and reloading the client, doesn't work, then i'm at a loss | 02:48 |
| spr0k3t | LjL: well, since I'm on freenode, I went and changed the port on freenode and it worked. | 02:49 |
| LjL | spr0k3t: it worked? i just disconnected you | 02:49 |
| spr0k3t | yeah I know | 02:49 |
| spr0k3t | I'm in #ubuntu once again. | 02:50 |
| dgimse | can i be tested i'm behind a router but just interested | 02:50 |
| LjL | spr0k3t, that's just because you're using another nickname though | 02:50 |
| spr0k3t | but on the correct port | 02:51 |
| LjL | yep, it's working | 02:51 |
| LjL | dgimse: sure | 02:51 |
| dgimse | ready | 02:51 |
| === spr0k3t_ is now known as spr0k3t | ||
| LjL | dgimse, you're quite affected | 02:52 |
| dgimse | yep | 02:52 |
| spr0k3t | there we go... | 02:52 |
| LjL | spr0k3t, please try to make sure you always connect from the one that works from now on | 02:53 |
| dgimse | is this just a port change or do i just update the firmware on my router? | 02:53 |
| LjL | dgimse, a port change will do, upgrading the firmware is probably a good idea, but not really needed | 02:53 |
| spr0k3t | LjL: nod, I removed the affected server listing and changed it in my other software. | 02:53 |
| spr0k3t | yeah, their router sucks so I don't think the firmware will get updted... it's an out-of-date wireless-b router | 02:54 |
| spr0k3t | I'm sure I would have had this problem before now if my own network was affected. | 02:55 |
| LjL | well, it's been a while since we've had the last exploiter i think | 02:55 |
| LjL | dgimse: remember to disconnect and reconnect after changing the port | 02:55 |
| dgimse | k | 02:56 |
| spr0k3t | anyway, thanks for the help | 02:56 |
| spr0k3t | wavies | 02:56 |
| LjL | you're welcome | 02:56 |
| ubotu | Flannel called the ops in #ubuntu () | 03:00 |
| tomaw | I just +r'd #ubuntu for the duration of those bots | 03:01 |
| dgimse | is there instructions to change ports on chatzilla? | 03:02 |
| elkbuntu | oh dear | 03:04 |
| LjL | now why does mez keep flooding | 03:07 |
| LjL | i've banned Mez from #ubuntu, #ubuntu-offtopic, #kubuntu and #ubuntu+1 | 03:24 |
| LjL | keeps quitting with excess flood | 03:24 |
| LjL | i've banned torpor.sourceguru.net in some channels and ubuntu/member/mez in others, since that's what he joins as | 03:24 |
| * Hobbsee does #ubuntu-devel | 03:27 | |
| Dave2 | I guess it's some interaction between xchat and his proxy | 03:28 |
| gnomefreak | you banned mez? | 03:33 |
| Dave2 | he's being very flappy. | 03:34 |
| jdong | just until his client fixes itself :) | 03:34 |
| gnomefreak | what joins/parts? | 03:34 |
| Dave2 | it keeps flooding off and rejoining. | 03:34 |
| jdong | I think gnomefreak is being rhetorical :) | 03:40 |
| jdong | in that his client probably redirects them to another window | 03:40 |
| jdong | wait was I just captain obvious? | 03:41 |
| * jdong puts on his dunce cap again | 03:41 | |
| jdong | random question of the day, how does kicking/banning immunity work on Freenode? Is it possessed only by special entities like ChanServ or do staffers have it too? | 03:49 |
| tomaw | jdong: some staff have it. it's umode +m and prevents most people from kicking them | 03:49 |
| crdlb | I'm pretty sure it's only services that are unkickable | 03:49 |
| crdlb | oh nm :) | 03:49 |
| jdong | tomaw: ah, cool, thanks :) | 03:50 |
| tomaw | jdong: note that one umode for kick/deop immunity and another that is called godmode, which allows you to send through bans (and other stuff) | 03:50 |
| Tm_T | mez has evil autojoin | 03:50 |
| tomaw | jdong: also, few staff have it and we only enable it when needed | 03:51 |
| jdong | ah :) | 03:51 |
| crdlb | are you planning on kicking a staffer? :) | 03:51 |
| Tm_T | I am | 03:51 |
| jdong | Tm_T: maybe I'm mistaken but I'm pretty sure chanserv.py has autorejoin, and auto-chanserv-unban | 03:52 |
| jdong | crdlb: nah, just my curiousity | 03:52 |
| Tm_T | jdong: sounds evil | 03:52 |
| crdlb | it is | 03:52 |
| crdlb | auto-chanserv-unban is really cool though | 03:52 |
| jdong | Tm_T: maybe I'm wrong and S.eveas will kill me for slandering his work ;-) | 03:52 |
| crdlb | although autoreconnect on quit is unrelated to that :) | 03:53 |
| jdong | Tm_T: yeah I made the mistake of giving someone I hang out with a copy of chanserv.py.... | 03:54 |
| jdong | then tried to kick him in all the ways I knew of from a channel he had access to. | 03:55 |
| jdong | didn't work out so well :) | 03:55 |
| jdong | the GPL needs a "you're too much of a PITA to use this software" clause :) | 03:55 |
| elkbuntu | jdong, you remove them from the ops list | 03:56 |
| elkbuntu | s/ops/access/ | 03:56 |
| jdong | elkbuntu: I was still a young IRC newb at that time | 03:56 |
| elkbuntu | heh | 03:56 |
| jdong | only slightly better since then ;-) | 03:57 |
| tonyyarusso | I wish there was a version of the GPL that let you link to it online instead of having to provide a full copy of the text | 03:57 |
| tonyyarusso | It's silly to license a 20-line script under a license hundreds of lines long | 03:57 |
| * tonyyarusso was going to put it on a school assignment, but realized it would be silly | 03:57 | |
| elkbuntu | tonyyarusso, you mean cc-esque? | 03:58 |
| crdlb | you can't just put the gpl header on it? | 03:58 |
| tonyyarusso | elkbuntu: maybe? Not a lot of experience with those either yet | 03:58 |
| jdong | the GPL header is still gigantic | 03:58 |
| tonyyarusso | crdlb: nope | 03:58 |
| crdlb | that's silly :/ | 03:58 |
| tonyyarusso | I want to have the same terms as the GPL, but be able to say something like "Licensed under the GPL, available from http://fsf.org/gpl" or wahtever | 03:58 |
| crdlb | just put it in the public domain :) | 03:59 |
| TheSheep | tonyyarusso: such a licence won't work in some countries | 03:59 |
| elkbuntu | tonyyarusso, http://creativecommons.org/license/ | 03:59 |
| tonyyarusso | TheSheep: ? | 04:00 |
| TheSheep | tonyyarusso: plus, the lawyers can claim the license was reading "500 Server error" when they went to check it ;) | 04:00 |
| tonyyarusso | TheSheep: then they can't use it until it's fixed, duh | 04:00 |
| crdlb | TheSheep: haha | 04:00 |
| tonyyarusso | elkbuntu: why does that thing only output HTML and not just text... | 04:01 |
| tonyyarusso | (And where'd the puzzle chooser go?) | 04:01 |
| tonyyarusso | ah, found it - http://labs.creativecommons.org/freedomslicense/ | 04:02 |

| gnomefreak | jdong: your not a motu are you? | 04:17 |
| tonyyarusso | s/your/you\'re/ | 04:18 |
| jdong | gnomefreak: I just applied on Thursday and am anxiously awaiting decision :) | 04:18 |
| Amaranth | eww | 04:18 |
| Amaranth | I have to find someone new to hang out, jdong has invaded | 04:19 |
| Amaranth | err, somewhere | 04:19 |
| jdong | haha :) | 04:19 |
| * gnomefreak still scared to apply but thats for a day when i feel confident asac will back me | 04:19 | |
| gnomefreak | since noone touches my builds i upload to revu due to it being moz code and i guess its time that worries them or what not | 04:20 |
| jdong | gnomefreak: complexity too.... yeah I feel you on working on things that others do not like to touch | 04:20 |
| jdong | gnomefreak: i.e. my Azureus work and my xserver-xgl work were the most difficult to get attention/sponsorship | 04:21 |
| Hobbsee | jdong: surely we won't give you MOTU | 04:30 |
| Hobbsee | we want non-crack filled repos. | 04:30 |
| jdong | Hobbsee: eerie how you say that :) | 04:31 |
| Hobbsee | :P | 04:31 |
| jdong | Hobbsee: I was just drafting a spec on a Ubuntu volatile repo :D | 04:31 |
| Hobbsee | haha :) | 04:31 |
| jdong | gutsy-wimpy-backports would be my ideal pocket name ;-) | 04:33 |
| * gnomefreak heads to bed i can finish burning cds tomorrow | 04:33 | |
| Hobbsee | jdong: heh | 04:33 |
| dgimse | alright i changed irc clients i wish to be tested | 04:36 |
| dgimse | and followed the instructions on the web page | 04:37 |
| dgimse | never mind i'll just use the forum | 04:38 |
| jdong | score 1 for jdong :) | 04:38 |
| tonyyarusso | dgimse: you're welcome to stay, you just haven't fixed the problem yet | 04:38 |
| dgimse | i can't unless i update my firmware on my router | 04:39 |
| dgimse | i followed the instructions to the t with x chat | 04:39 |
| tonyyarusso | port 8001 didn't work? | 04:39 |
| dgimse | nope | 04:39 |
| tonyyarusso | odd | 04:40 |
| tonyyarusso | may need to restart your client or something | 04:40 |
| crdlb | are you sure you changed it for the right network? | 04:40 |
| dgimse | think youre right about restarting the client i don't think i did that | 04:40 |
| Amaranth | Hobbsee: My application for MOTU explicitly mentioned getting more crack in the repo | 04:41 |
| Hobbsee | Amaranth: :) | 04:41 |
| Hobbsee | Amaranth: yeah, but your crack and jdong's are different. | 04:41 |
| dgimse | alright ready for another shot | 04:41 |
| jdong | tonyyarusso: do the instructions for switching port clearly state to restart the client? | 04:42 |
| dgimse | when i read them they do | 04:42 |
| tonyyarusso | jdong: no idea | 04:42 |
| tonyyarusso | :( | 04:42 |
| jdong | :( | 04:42 |
| * crdlb bets he changed "Ubuntu servers" instead of "freenode" or the reverse | 04:43 | |
| tonyyarusso | hmm | 04:43 |
| jdong | we shoudl just give em an iptables DNAT rule to redirect outbound 6667 to 8001 :D | 04:43 |
| * jdong waits Hobbsee to scream crack :D | 04:44 | |
| Hobbsee | haha | 04:44 |
| crdlb | dgimse: did you change the port for both network entries? | 04:44 |
| crdlb | (FreeNode, and Ubuntu Servers) | 04:44 |
| dgimse | both network entries? | 04:44 |
| dgimse | no | 04:44 |
| dgimse | i'll try that | 04:45 |
| crdlb | I'm not sure which one you're using, so change both :) | 04:45 |
| dgimse | i'll have to reread the directions later because the settings are not saving to the chat app | 04:48 |
| dgimse | so i will try again thx guys cyas | 04:48 |
| ubotu | astro76 called the ops in #ubuntu (Littlechild) | 05:08 |
| jdong | what's our policy on people who join in clone pairs? | 05:37 |
| jdong | 00:37 -!- noobuntu [n=adsfadsf@208-117-11-160.block5.gvtc.com] has quit ["Ex-Chat"] | 05:38 |
| jdong | 00:37 -!- linux_user400354 [n=adsfadsf@208-117-11-160.block5.gvtc.com] has quit ["Ex-Chat"] | 05:38 |
| jdong | that used to be the guy with the offensive racist term in his realname btw | 05:38 |
| elkbuntu | jdong, depends if the clone is to circumvent a ban | 05:41 |
| jdong | elkbuntu: no, he never talks in the channel, just odd that he always joins in a pair | 05:42 |
| elkbuntu | jdong, i used to connect from multiple machines before i had my laptop when i'd swap between systems via kvm | 05:43 |
| jdong | interesting | 05:44 |
| jdong | I guess the fact that this user hasn't had a good track record over at the forums makes me wary that he idles in #ubuntuforums without saying a word too :-/ | 05:44 |
| jdong | oh well I guess if he doesn't talk there's no harm done | 05:44 |
| elkbuntu | jdong, feel free to watch him like a hawk | 05:45 |
| jdong | amen :) | 05:45 |
| Hobbsee | jdong: i have 2 connections. | 05:46 |
| Hobbsee | there are legit reasons for it | 05:46 |
| jdong | Hobbsee: indeed there are, but it's odd when his two connections are obviously through the same client | 05:47 |
| jdong | as they always join and quit at the exact same time | 05:47 |
| Hobbsee | true | 05:47 |
| Amaranth | So, uh | 06:56 |
| Amaranth | The guy running the repeat bot is in ##mrmonday and has a couple bots | 06:56 |
| Amaranth | That channel doesn't look very...good | 06:57 |
| elkbuntu | mrmonday seems a familiar nick | 06:59 |
| jdong | elkbuntu: mrmonday does the circleoffriends newsletter thing | 06:59 |
| jdong | or whatever it's called | 06:59 |
| jdong | fullcircle | 06:59 |
| elkbuntu | aha | 06:59 |
| jdong | he seems like a sensible guy from my interactions with him | 06:59 |
| elkbuntu | Amaranth, where's the bot/what's it's nick? | 07:00 |
| Amaranth | hours ago | 07:00 |
| Amaranth | Danalon | 07:00 |
| elkbuntu | ah ok | 07:00 |
| Amaranth | AerialX controls it and a few others | 07:01 |
| elkbuntu | i assume they've been spoken to? | 07:02 |
| Amaranth | No, actualy | 07:02 |
| Amaranth | +l | 07:02 |
| Amaranth | I expected staff to check it out :P | 07:02 |
| Amaranth | When I called them | 07:02 |
| Amaranth | He had 3 bots and two of them where in ubuntu-related channels | 07:02 |
| elkbuntu | when nalioth isnt /away any longer, maybe he's around? | 07:03 |
| Amaranth | I guess he got nervous when I joined because he made them all quit | 07:03 |
| elkbuntu | s/when/well/ | 07:03 |
| elkbuntu | Amaranth, that definately implies knowledge of wrongdoing | 07:03 |
| Amaranth | one of them repeated something in ##mrmonday that was obviously from an ubuntu channel and he says 'STUF' and makes it quit right away | 07:04 |
| nalioth | away? | 07:08 |
| elkbuntu | nalioth, you're not set away with /away, so i figured you are around to read up to what Amaranth said | 07:20 |
| nalioth | elkbuntu: i'm in the channel in question | 07:24 |
| ubotu | Evanlec called the ops in #ubuntu (kaddy) | 08:18 |
| gdubzguru | plz test my system to allow me into #ubuntu | 08:22 |
| ompaul | gdubzguru, ? were you in #ubuntu-read-topic? | 08:25 |
| gdubzguru | yes | 08:25 |
| ompaul | ahh okay | 08:25 |
| ompaul | let me test | 08:25 |
| ompaul | it looks okay | 08:26 |
| ompaul | give me a moment to unban you | 08:26 |
| ompaul | you may enter #ubuntu - connect to 8001 if you change location / client etc | 08:28 |
| ompaul | thanks | 08:28 |
| gdubzguru | thx | 08:28 |
| Mez | can i get an unban in -motu and -devel | 08:30 |
| jdong | haha | 08:30 |
| jdong | Mez: have you read the guidelines and accept the CoC? | 08:30 |
| Mez | I have no idea what happened | 08:30 |
| jdong | *ducks* | 08:30 |
| Mez | apparenntly I was repeatedly cycling | 08:31 |
| jdong | yeah, you were | 08:31 |
| Mez | anyone got logs? | 08:31 |
| Mez | apparently I was excess flooding too | 08:31 |
| Mez | all I gots here is | 08:31 |
| Mez | * You have been kicked from #ubuntu-ops by -bip (Server disconnected, reconnecting) | 08:31 |
| Mez | you have no idea how many channels I was getting messages in | 08:32 |
| Mez | loooks like there weas an attack i got caught up in as exploitable | 08:35 |
| Mez | for some reason I was doing a /who on every person in every channel I'm in | 08:37 |
| jdong | Mez: you were excess flooding and rejoining once every like 30 seconds | 08:38 |
| nalioth | Mez: what client? | 08:38 |
| Mez | nalioth, I use xchat but connect through bip | 08:39 |
| nalioth | xchat is bad about /who | 08:39 |
| Mez | It seems like it started on the mass ctcp version | 08:39 |
| Mez | but I dunno how I was doing a /who on everyone | 08:40 |
| nalioth | xchat is bad for that | 08:41 |
| Mez | yeah, but i didnt nitate the command... | 08:41 |
| nalioth | no, you don't have to | 08:41 |
| nalioth | for some reason xchat will go into that behaviour sometimes | 08:41 |
| * Mez sighs | 08:42 | |
| Mez | wh it happened over the cycle of the connections though | 08:42 |
| * Mez sighs | 08:42 | |
| Mez | looks like the whole ctcp version thing | 08:42 |
| ompaul | change your login port | 08:43 |
| ompaul | or router | 08:43 |
| nalioth | or client | 08:44 |
| Mez | ompaul, for a thousand users sendnig me a CTCP login ? and me responding? | 08:44 |
| Mez | and I connect on the correct port | 08:44 |
| Mez | and through my server - so I cant change the router | 08:44 |
| Mez | and my client - why should I change my client - I dont see any decent alternatives to xchat | 08:44 |
| ompaul | Mez, they love you ;-) | 08:45 |
| Mez | now, can smeone remove the bans in -motu and -devel | 08:45 |
| Mez | ompaul, who lvoes me? | 08:46 |
| Mez | this is the first such issue | 08:46 |
| ompaul | those people sending you ctcp stuff | 08:46 |
| Mez | It was a fecking network attack | 08:46 |
| Mez | check your logs | 08:46 |
| Mez | http://rafb.net/p/JmCP4k37.html | 08:48 |
| Mez | so, nalioth any chance of lifting the bans? | 08:49 |
| nalioth | Mez: try that | 08:50 |
| Mez | thanks | 08:51 |
| * Mez gives nalioth a cookie | 08:51 | |
| Mez | I've also made xchat not reply to CTCP version | 08:51 |
| Mez | hmmles.. | 08:51 |
| Mez | It also might have been something triggered from work, as I left my PC connected there I think | 08:51 |
| Mez | just an FYI: I;m restarting bip | 08:59 |
| Mez | excess flood ? | 09:08 |
| jdong | yeah | 09:08 |
| jdong | 04:04 -!- Mez [n=mez@ubuntu/member/mez] has quit [Excess Flood] | 09:08 |
| Mez | excess flood ?? | 09:10 |

| ubotu | In ubotu, ardchoille said: ubotu sambabug is If you're still getting errors related to samba, please update your sources and your system. | 10:34 |
| elkbuntu | i havent a clue who he is, but that line made me chortle | 12:03 |
| Tm_T | ? | 12:03 |
| elkbuntu | Tm_T, -offtopic | 12:04 |
| ubotu | IdleOne_ called the ops in #ubuntu () | 12:39 |
| Tm_T | come on | 12:39 |
| tomaw | +q'd passionboy in #ubuntu since noone seemed around | 12:40 |
| Tm_T | tomaw: just kick him | 12:42 |
| elkbuntu | dealt with | 12:52 |
| Tm_T | thank you sir | 12:52 |
| elkbuntu | tomaw, anything disgusting like that, you're welcome to remove :) | 12:52 |
| tomaw | Ah, I just tend to shut people up if I'm using freenode staff status to do it, and only if it's going on for a while after people call for help | 12:53 |
| elkbuntu | tomaw, well for future reference, we're happy for staff to use necessary force. last thing we want is someone like that taking it to PM of random people in the channel :) | 12:56 |
| tomaw | okay :) | 12:56 |
| Tm_T | tomaw: and thank you :) | 12:58 |
| tomaw | np | 12:59 |
| elkbuntu | tomaw, most ubuntu channels, or at least the ones the council has power over, have /freenode/staff* in the access list, kinda like permission to do what is necessary | 12:59 |
| tomaw | elkbuntu: freenode mostly uses that as a guide to tell us that you're happy with us helping out in the channel when there's no local ops around to deal with things or you're experiencing a large attack. Most of the time we don't get involved in normal channel operator tasks because it would be too difficult for us to keep up with the other ops of all of the channels and we might doing things the other ops didn't want to without realising it. | 13:01 |
| tomaw | But yeah, I'll try to remember to clean out the trouble if I quiet them :) | 13:02 |
| PriceChild | Woo scored again | 13:43 |
| spinchange | [freenode-info] | 15:16 |
| spinchange | can I get tested? | 15:16 |
| spinchange | nickserv Spinchange | 15:19 |
| spinchange | im looking to get "tested" i had someone do a DCCExploit on me | 15:28 |
| spinchange | hello? | 15:30 |
| PriceChild | spinchange, hey | 15:31 |
| LjL | done | 15:31 |
| spinchange | Hey there | 15:31 |
| spinchange | Thanks!! :) | 15:31 |
| LjL | you're welcome, you can join now | 15:32 |
| spinchange | Thanks guys, Im an IRC noob, so I didn't know if the room was quiet or If I was still logged out, etc | 15:32 |
| spinchange | Ty again LjL | 15:32 |
| thunderstruck | anyone have link for free windows xchat, the one i had ran out of 30 day eval and they want 20 bucks :( | 15:51 |
| elkbuntu | thunderstruck, google for 'silverex xchat' | 15:51 |
| thunderstruck | ty elkbuntu i just hope its compiled with python | 15:52 |
| thunderstruck | i was there but didnt see anything saying it had python support | 15:53 |
| elkbuntu | thunderstruck, it appears to be in there according to the changelog. http://www.xchat.org/changelog.txt | 15:55 |
| spinchange | is it possible that my Nick could've been hijacked as part of DCCExploit that happened while in the Ubuntu-Help channel? | 15:56 |
| elkbuntu | 2.8.4 - 01/Jul/2007 <snip> * Python: Added a xchat.strip method for stripping IRC attributes and mIRC color codes. | 15:56 |
| thunderstruck | ty i must have missed that before | 15:56 |
| elkbuntu | thunderstruck, worst case scenario, you download, install it, and it doesnt work, btu it's worth a try :) | 15:58 |
| thunderstruck | true | 15:58 |
| spinchange | sorry if this is OT, but after getting DCCE'd from an Ubuntu channel, Freenode now says my Nick belongs to someone else(?) Using the IDENTIFY command doesn't work also (password incorrect) | 16:01 |
| PriceChild | spinchange, nope. | 16:01 |
| PriceChild | spinchange, your nick was on the receiving end.... | 16:02 |
| PriceChild | spinchange, you were affected by some nasty person... and now we've fixed the vulnerability you had. | 16:02 |
| PriceChild | about the password not working... did you set an email?# | 16:03 |
| spinchange | thanks. Im just trying to figure out why I can't identify myself to freednode. apologies for my IRC noobism | 16:03 |
| PriceChild | if you set an email, type "/stats p" and msg a staffer listed on that | 16:03 |
| PriceChild | if you haven't... I guess its probably "tough", although you are from the same ip as the identified user was last seen from so they might take that into account :) | 16:05 |
| spinchange | Thanks a bunch, PriceChild. Is "/stats p" a channel or a command? | 16:06 |
| PriceChild | its a command | 16:06 |
| spinchange | "/stats p" | 16:08 |
| PriceChild | without the "s | 16:10 |
| spinchange | nothing seems to happen | 16:11 |
| PriceChild | check the server window | 16:12 |
| Cha0sAC | can i be tested? | 16:16 |
| PriceChild | Cha0sAC, you may rejoin #ubuntu | 16:17 |
| Cha0sAC | thanks | 16:17 |
| ThunderStruck | this really sucks | 16:18 |
| elkbuntu | ThunderStruck, no python? :( | 16:18 |
| ThunderStruck | no and i cant find a py plugin | 16:18 |

| elkbuntu | ThunderStruck, check this page http://www.larces.uece.br/~sergio/?page=xchat | 16:21 |
| elkbuntu | fine, back to bed with me then. if he returns, repeat the link to him | 16:22 |
| Midtronic | can I get tested for this dcc exploit and unbanned? | 16:23 |
| PriceChild | You got half your wish. | 16:27 |
| PriceChild | Did we have an attack today? | 16:27 |
| ThunderStruck | elkbuntu, if you use the build from http://www.larces.uece.br/~sergio/?page=xchat and install the plugin it works great | 16:32 |
| ThunderStruck | seems that the other build was buggy with perl module anyway | 16:32 |
| ThunderStruck | ah damn typos | 16:32 |

| Twintop | Hello. I believe I have fixed my DCC Exploit on my IRC Client. Is there anything else that I need to change to get unblocked? :) | 21:14 |
| PriceChild | Twintop, You may rejoin #ubuntu | 21:15 |
| Twintop | Thank you very much, PriceChild. :) | 21:16 |
