My Wiki returns!

Not many people know I ever had a wiki in the first place, I did, a long time ago, but never really finished its content, this time will be different!

Found at wiki.lethality.me.uk, it will host a wealth of information, mostly tutorials and stuff I’m constantly telling people, or helping with on a daily basis, most relating to IRC and coding.
I already have an idea of the kinda stuff that’s going on it, but would like some ideas to help prioritize, and also just comments about anything else you’d like.

Some of the upcoming tutorials include:

  • Complete walk-throughs on setting up UnrealIRCd and InspIRCd with Anope Services.
  • Individual, in-depth tutorials on the above IRCd’s (setting up, modules, troubleshooting).
  • mIRC: setting up, configuring and adding scripts.
  • Anope: Setting up latest 1.8 and 1.9 releases, upgrading, troubleshooting, and installing modules.
  • Coding: Tips and help on programming/scripting, with an index of some I’ve done.
  • Most likely some Adobe Photoshop/After Effects stuff now I have screen-capturing mastered.

..So… comment below (hoping it works), and send your ideas.… Read the rest

Tutorial: Auto-voicing with Anope-1.8 [Basic]

December 3rd, 2011 | Posted by Lee in Anope | irc - (0 Comments)

This is a common request, and one that most people end up using 3rd party bots/scripts or Anope modules for, when its functionality is in the Anope core already.

This works on recent versions of Anope-1.8 and requires us altering ChanServ’s levels.
ChanServ’s levels can only be altered and implemented when XOP is turned off, meaning you’ll need to add new users access using numeric values eg. VOP=3, AOP=5, SOP=10.

  1. So, first thing’s first, disable XOP if it’s enabled using /cs set #CHANNEL XOP OFF.
  2. If you do /cs levels #CHANNEL list you can see the required access levels for various commands, the one we’re after is AUTOVOICE.
  3. Do you want just registered users to get voiced, or all users? An unregistered user has level 0, a registered one has 1. For ALL users type /cs levels #CHANNEL set autovoice 0, and for REGISTERED users use /cs levels #CHANNEL set autovoice 1.

And that’s all there is to it, you may wish to use this for a degree of damage control in the event of flood-bots, eg. Setting the channel to +m and having ChanServ autovoice registered users. There are many possibilities, and the same idea can also be applied to the AUTOHALFOP, AUTOOP levels.

Showing someone a direct Facebook pic, regardless of privacy, friends.

A quick how-to for Facebook this time, although the tool is already there, most people struggle when it comes to showing a picture from someone else’s photo album to someone who isn’t a friend of the user, or doesn’t even have Facebook, or the persons privacy settings limit who can view it.

  1. On the old Facebook image albums you could right click an image select “open..” this would open the image directly as it’s saved on Facebooks servers, allowing you to show anyone else. This isn’t possible with the new image viewers. From the album, click the image, opening it in Facebooks image “slider/viewer”.
  2. To the right of the comments, and underneath the image and album info is a “Download” link, right click it and select “Copy link Location/address” (exact wording will vary depending on browser).
  3. You should now be able to paste the link anywhere eg. https://fbcdn-sphotos-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/179836_10150392776725167_892115166_16729198_2760362_n.jpg?dl=1
    This link will not just open in a browser like we want, it will ask if you want to download/save/open it. This is easily fixed by removing the ?dl=1  from the end. Giving us  https://fbcdn-sphotos-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/179836_10150392776725167_892115166_16729198_2760362_n.jpg

Setting up mIRC for use on UKChatterbox [Basic]

August 25th, 2011 | Posted by Lee in irc | mIRC - (0 Comments)

This is a basic run-through of the mIRC installation process and setting it up to connect to UKChatterbox.

  1. Downloading mIRC: Click the following link which contains the download for the latest version of mIRC from it’s website: http://www.mirc.com/get.php. Once it’s downloaded run the mIRC set-up program, currently this is titled mirc719.exe, you should get something like the following picture, click”Run”. 
  2. Once the mIRC Setup Wizard starts, click Next, Agree to the license,  Select a folder, I recommend changing it’s default, clicking “Browse” and select Desktop, this is easier for you to get to if you intend on adding scripts to it, then click Next. On the Choose components page, leave it as Full, with ALL of the check boxes ticked. Click Next and make sure ALL of the boxes are ticked, this will probably mean just ticking the bottom one for “Run as portable application”. The portable application option allows the configuration file and scripts to go into our Desktop/mIRC folder, if we hadn’t ticked it, scripts would go into a “hidden” file in c:/Users/USERNAME/AppData/Roaming/mIRC, which is a nuisance for the average user to get to. Now we’re ready to setup mIRC.
  3. Click the Run mIRC box and Finish. When mIRC opens you’ll be presented with an About page, and Register/Continue buttons. Click Continue this time, and every time you run mIRC. mIRC is freeware and doesn’t require registration. You should now have the mIRC Options dialogue.
    For Nickname enter your UKCB username: eg LEthaLity.
    Alternative is unlikely to
