What does this +shared flag exactly?

Using Your Eggdrop - Bans - almost the same information can be gleaned from the bot's internal help menu via .help +ban. Read the documentation that was distributed with your eggdrop in the ~/doc directory, especially read 'BANS'.

As for your second question regarding sharing, there is two kinds. Userfile-sharing (as your bottree indicates) you already obviously know. The other is a channel setting (.help chaninfo) which allows linked bots to share a variety of channel settings.

What does this +shared flag exactly?

2005-05-15T06:40:33-04:00

I have the following botnet:

Guardian
|-+PubGuard
|-+ChanGuard
|-+CommandGuard
`-+MeetingGuard

Every bot is on its own channelset, like Guardian is on official channels,
pubguard is on #*-public channels and so on.

Now i've set userfile sharing, and the "hello" command enabled only on Guardian. Everything works fine. But:

i'd like to have "superglobal" bans or whatever you call it. So if i type
.+ban Eviluser!*@*
Then Eviluser should not be able to join a channel when an eggdrop is there.
(Also, it would be nice if i can set .+ban Eviluser!*@* #abc-public on Guardian and he sends this ban to the pubguard bot )

Now i assume that the +shared flag for channels does this (or the g botflag). But i dont know what else the bots are sharing if i set this.
I dont want that the bots are joining a channel i haven't set or setting usermodes on channels they aren't on.

So what exactly is shared between the bots?
(Or: how can i enable those global bans?)

Thanks for any help!
