In stead off the client performing the mode +x, you could ma&ybe implement a syntax change in the login message... That way you could have an optional term, and the server would perform mode +x for you on login.
For exemple: /msg [EMAIL PROTECTED] login <username> <paswoord> [option] Maybe you could implement a /login cmd in the IRCu-code itself? If that is used the server would give you the mode +x, just like opers recieve mode +O when using /oper?

No one is talking about removing the ability to login via privmsg, just supplementing it with the ability to login on connect, so that mode +x can be set on your client before it's even announced to the network. That way your host is hidden from the start. > Regards, > Ace - -- Chris "_Shad0w_" Crowther [EMAIL PROTECTED] oper @ London.UK.EU.Undernet.Org http://www.shad0w.org.uk/ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.7 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE9tTmSz8bl0gyT/hERAg7EAKDy+86MgEq8xraXi8l2jQYSo+yikwCg18bb Fwv901zW8Vs6KOaWB8Eo+Zc= =Tkfj -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
