Flood settings in sentinel2.60

tom^ · Post by **tom^** » Sat Mar 16, 2002 2:04 pm

Using sentinel2.60.tcl on Egg 1.4.5

Sometimes, nicks get kicked by bot for very short sentences, like maybe one or two words in a sentence, and maybe 4 or 5 of these sentences entered and then they are kicked.

What would be good settings for sentinel to prevent a real legitimate flood but stop from kicking nicks who dont really need kicking?

These are what I have in sentinel2.60

# Bot CTCP flood.
set sl_bcflood 5:30

# Bot MSG flood.
set sl_bmflood 6:20

# Channel CTCP flood.
set sl_ccflood 5:20

# Channel avalanche/tsunami flood.
set sl_avflood 6:20

# Channel text flood.
set sl_txflood 160:30

# Channel bogus username join flood.
set sl_boflood 4:20

# Channel join-part flood.
set sl_jflood 6:20

# Channel nick flood.
set sl_nkflood 6:20

Any help would be appreciated, thanks
tom

you sure its sentinel thats doing the kicking, and not just eggdrop's builtin flood protection?

Ok, I checked the config file and found the settings flood-chan 5:20

So I did a .chaninfo <channel> and seen that the chanfile is also set to flood-chan 5:20

So I have adjusted the settings in chanfile and will see if that helps keep the flood kicking down.
.chanset <channel> flood-chan 10:20

thanks for your help
