ACCESS LIST

Modifies or displays the access list for your nickname.
This is the list of user@host addresses which will be
automatically recognized by NickServ as being allowed to use
the nickname. If you connect to IRC with an address on this
list, you will not be affected by the nick's SET KILL
setting, and if the SECURE option is disabled, you will be
able to receive auto-op and other privileges in channels
without using the IDENTIFY command.

The mask given to the ADD and DEL commands may contain wildcards (* or ?).

Examples:
-
ACCESS ADD achurch@*.dragonfire.net
Allows access to user achurch from any machine in
the dragonfire.net domain.

ACCESS DEL achurch@*.dragonfire.net
Reverses the previous command.

ACCESS LIST
Displays the current access list.
Services admins may give a nickname parameter to the LIST command to display the access list for any nickname.



Syntax: AJOIN ADD channel
AJOIN DEL channel
AJOIN LIST

Modifies or displays the autojoin list for your nickname.
This is the list of channels that you would like to
automatically join, and takes effect whenever you identify
to NickServ. You may only put channel names starting with "#" in the autojoin list (local channels cannot be added).

Note that the IRC server may prohibit you from entering some
channels on the autojoin list, such as channels that have a
channel key set (mode +k) or are invite-only (mode +i).
However, if you have access to the ChanServ INVITE command
on a registered channel, NickServ will automatically invite you into the channel.

Syntax: SET TIMEZONE {UTC-offset | time-zone | DEFAULT}

Sets the time zone to use for displaying times (such as a
nickname or channel's last used time), instead of using the
time zone Services is operating in; the DEFAULT setting can
be used to return to Services' time zone. The time zone can
be specified in one of two ways:

As a UTC offset, the time difference between your local
time and UTC (Universal Coordinated Time, also known as
GMT, Greenwich Mean Time). The offset is given as a
"+" or "-" to indicate ahead of (east) or behind (west)
UTC, followed by either a whole number of hours or a
string in the form "hh:mm".

As a time zone name, such as "GMT" or "EDT". Not all
time zone names are supported by Services, and some
countries' time zones have the same names, so if you
get an error or the time displayed by Services is
wrong, use a UTC offset instead.

Note that Services will not automatically adjust for
daylight savings time (summer time); you will have to adjust the time zone manually.

Examples:

SET TIMEZONE -5
Set the time zone to 5 hours behind UTC.
-
SET TIMEZONE +3:30
Set the time zone to 3 hours, 30 minutes ahead of UTC.

-
SET TIMEZONE JST
Set the time zone to Japan Standard Time (UTC+9:00).
