/ctcp nick XDCC delete 1                # stop offering a file

Queue

• Only one file will be sent at a time.
• Additional requests are added to a queue, max 99 slots.
• If the requesting user goes afk and does not accept the file, the transfer will time out and advance the queue.

Tips & Tricks

• Turn on DCC autoget, if you want to allow uploads - /set dcc_autoget ON
• The script will look for files in dcc_upload_path which is usually your home directory.
• If you're using the public fileserver, you'll probably want to use something other than your home directory. Create e.g. ~/xdcc_server/ and set these to the same:
  • /set dcc_upload_path ~/xdcc_server
  • /set dcc_download_path ~/xdcc_server
• Filenames must not contain spaces.
• Absolute paths are fine. Only the filename will be shown.
• DCC does not work for everyone. It's helpful if you are not behind a firewall.
