Make Eggdrop Change a users flag?

Which flags did you grant this user?
To have the user manually request op, they should have the +o flag, but not the +a flag. You could also grant them the +f flag, if you want them excluded from flooding and similar.

Further, to restrict whom may be able to impersonate this user, take care when setting up "hostmasks". A hostmask is a pattern that is matched against the "nick!user@host" as shown on irc, the pattern can contain * to match 0 or more characters, and ? to match one single character, as well as explicit strings:
*!user@shell1.example.com as an example would match anyone connecting from shell1.example.com while logged on as user - regardless of what nickname they use on irc.
You can use the .whois command to see what hostmasks have been added to the user record. You can then user the .+host and/or .-host command to add/remove hostmasks from the user record as needed.

I managed to get in dcc with my bot and added the users i wanted, now the problem is that i gave my test user a few flags, he gets op when he joins the channel if he writes something in the channel wich is good!, but i really dont like when its like that, since then anybody could take his nickname and write and get op and then do a channel takeover, so how do i make it like i mentioned earlier? that you need to msg the bot that you want op and then a password set in the config file or something?

it could work to have it as it is since our channel isn't that big as it is, but i really dont want to risk that happening.

Thanks for the help with the other commands btw

There is no telnet module, and never has been one.
Have you created your owner account, and set a password yet?

See the .adduser and/or .+user dcc partyline commands to add new users to your bot.
Then use the .chattr command to give them proper permissions (see .help whois for a basic list of different flags - permissions).
Remind the user to set a password using "/MSG yourbot PASS newpass"
Tell the user that (s)he can get op using "/MSG yourbot OP password"

Okay, but it seems like i cannot get in partyline or dcc with the bot, it gives me a telnet error, and a mate told me that if you disabled the telnet module it should work so how do i disable/remove the telnet module?

I'm new to egg bot and i got the egg bot since we currently have problems to keep our channel opp ed by humans and i have read that you can make the egg bot set certain flags on users if you ask the bot so i wonder how can you set up so the bot does that?

something like: /MSG bot need-op "password" and then it would give Op to the user who wrote it

Tell me if you need to know more about my problem or so and i will try to explain how i mean that i want the bot to do.
