  39 </I>&gt;&gt;<i> Secondly, Bahamut allows bans applied by IP address to affect the
  40 </I>&gt;<i>hostnames
  41 </I>&gt;&gt;<i> that match, but chanserv unban &lt;nick&gt; doesn't take this into account.
  42 </I>&gt;<i>This
  43 </I>&gt;&gt;<i> leads to a bit of confusion when people try to unban a nick from outside
  44 </I>&gt;<i>the
  45 </I>&gt;&gt;<i> channel and it doesn't appear to be happening.  What are people's thoughts
  46 </I>&gt;&gt;<i> on this behaviour?
  47 </I>&gt;&gt;<i>

  51 Yep, and has done for a long time.
  52
  53 &gt;<i>The last thing you'd want is to have services sit there and hang up for
  54 </I>&gt;<i>a while as it performs 100s of DNS lookups (which might not resolve) on
  55 </I>&gt;<i>each user on your network... Even then what one server things the IP of
  56 </I>&gt;<i>one user might NOT be the IP that another server will resolve.
  57 </I>
  58 Indeed, but I do think that chanserv unban needs to take account of this, as
  59 otherwise I think it can be very confusing.
  60
  61 &gt;<i>This is why you'd have to transmit the IP when the user connects.  Services
  62 </I>&gt;<i>doesn't know to set the ban if it cannot match the bans.
  63 </I>
  64 Well I'm not suggesting that services sets bans by IP or anything like
  65 that.. Just saying that chanserv unban needs to take account of this
  66 behaviour.
