Override in nickserv.c

[Aetherinox]

I noticed that there's a few commands in both your channel services and srvx.

/nickserv set karma
/nickserv set flags
/nickserv set fakehost

However, when trying to execute these commands, you get:

karma is a privileged setting.
fakehost is a privileged setting.

What exactly is the privilege?
I have 1000 with opserv, I'm authenticated with NickServ, and I have god / security override enabled. Yet it still says this.

It's being defined in /src/nickserv.c on like 150:
#define OPTION_FUNC(NAME) int NAME(UNUSED_ARG(struct svccmd *cmd), struct userNode *user, struct handle_info *hi, UNUSED_ARG(unsigned int override), int noreply, unsigned int argc, char *argv[])

And then on 3236 in /src/nickserv.c:
set_list(struct svccmd *cmd, struct userNode *user, struct handle_info *hi, int override)

Finally, on 3502 in /src/nickserv.c:

    if (!override) {
        if (!(noreply))
	    reply("MSG_SETTING_PRIVILEGED", argv[0]);
	return 0;
    }

I have peeled through the code, but I cannot execute these commands

The other issue I'm having is assigning a fakehost to a user. I tried the oset method, and I also tried with HostServ; however, the person always keeps the default hostname. I've also made sure the user has mode +x

Any help with this, and I swear I'd love you forever. I've been looking at this all day.

I've attempted to set a fake host via HostServ and NickServ, but it never changes my ident. It change is accepted, but my host on the server never changes. Even when I apply +x mode to my account and authenticate with NickServ.

The "override" check basically checks if you've used "O3 god on", it's just a measure to prevent accidental abuse.

As for HostServ, X3 doesn't have a HostServ, and the oset fakehost option of NickServ is applied when the user identifies, if for some reason it's not being applied then there is something else at fault.

Me and @bctrainers were going down memory lane on Discord about good ol' IRC servers and how they used to be. And I completely forgot I wrote this.

Thanks for the work you guys are doing to keep this alive. I'll have to dive back in.

And thanks for the response.
