DXSpider Registration Support System
DXSpider Registration Support System
📡 DXSpider Registration Support System provides a user-friendly way for sysops to manage registration requests via email and/or Telegram, with clear messages and configurable templates in Spanish and English (default).
📌 Purpose
This system adds simple tools to support registration and password management on a DXSpider node. It allows users to send a request, and sysops to authorize or deny it with minimal effort, while keeping a record of all registration requests and their acceptance or denial. It is not allowed to send more than 10 messages per day per IP.
⚙️ Features
- Users send requests via a simple command:
msg_sysop - Sysops receive Telegram alerts and emails
- Sysops can approve (
auth_register) or reject (deny_reg) registrations - Sends multilingual confirmation/denial messages to users
- Configurable templates for email content (Spanish/English)
📥 Commands Usage
The system uses three main commands for managing user registrations:
msg_sysop
Used by the user to send a registration request.
msg_sysop <user_call> REGISTER <user_email> <comments>
Example:
msg_sysop EA1ZZZ REGISTER ea1zzz@example.net I would like to join the cluster
auth_register
Used by the sysop to approve and register the user.
auth_reg <user_call>
Example:
auth_reg EA1ZZZ
deny_register
Used by the sysop to reject a registration request.
deny_reg <user_call>
Example:
deny_reg EA1ZZZ
