As we are managing an IRC channel, here is some background, including a few operator commands: Commands to the server start with /.

Getting Operator Privileges
If you become a core developer of GnuCash, Operator Privilegs will be granted to you. There a two alternative ways to activate them (Gncbot is the preferred method):
From Gncbot
You need to register your nick[s] and a password once with gncbot. The easiest way to do that is to:
/msg gncbot register <name> <password>
Once you are registered, the channel owner needs to add you to the list of channel operators so that gncbot knows to provide channel ops. This is done via the capability add
admin function: admin capability add <username> #gnucash,op
.
Each time you connect, open a query with gncbot:
<you> identify <nick> <password>
<gncbot> The operation succeeded.
<you> op #gnucash
You can also do this within the #gnucash channel directly:
/msg gncbot identify <name> <password>
<gncbot> The operation succeeded
<you> @op
<gncbot> The operation succeeded
From IRC NickServ and ChanServ
You need to register your nick[s] and password once at GIMPnet IRC. You do this by sending a message to the NickServ identity to register:
/msg nickserv register <name> <password>
<nickserv> The operation Succeeded
The channel owner then needs to add you to the list of users in the Channel Server. This is done by setting the user access in Chanserv: /msg ChanServ access #gnucash add <username> 5
Then each time you connect, you identify with your nick and password against GIMPnet IRC:
/msg nickserv identify <name> <password>
<nickserv> The operation succeeded
Gncbot
Usually at code.gnucash.org gncbot, currently a supybot, is running. He should manage the channel. There a 2 ways to contact him:
- In the gnucash channel precede commands by @. They are visible to other users.
- Open a query and enter commands there.
If you are in the operator group, he should grant you operator rights after identifying.
If gncbot got disconnected, sombody has to grant him the rights again:
- /op gncbot to op the gncbot. @op gncbot returns an error.
If gncbot got a wrong name like gncbot', rename him by @nick gncbot.
