- ratbox-services 'live' databases - ------------------------------------------- ratbox-services maintains a large amount of database state in RAM, instead of performing lookups in the database. This means that most of the database cannot be modified whilst ratbox-services is running, as ratbox-services will not recognise the changes. The following tables in the database are 'live', and can be modified externally without issues: operbans users_resetpass users_resetemail channels_dropowner email_banned_domain All other tables must not be modified whilst ratbox-services is running. If you need to do this (ie, for a web interface), then you should look at the database hook API, documented in dbhook.txt. This allows the usage of 'syncer' tables, to notify ratbox-services it needs to modify the database. Current database hooks are listed in dbhook_current.txt
