nick reserved/remembered by server...timeout?

Please bear with me, as I'm a newbie to the SILC toolkit.  I'm working on 
a bot for SILC, using the template "mybot" that came with the toolkit. 
As I'm testing, I kill and restart the bot often.  Whenever I restart the 
bot, the server seems to "remember" a recent connection and the bot nick 
gets set but you can't msg the bot itself without specifying the hostname 
too.  (I presume since the server remembers a recent client connection 
with the same nick)

Example.

Start bot named "foo"
/msg foo something
foobot does something in return

<kill foobot>

Start bot named "foo"
Nick is "foo" but '/msg foo something' returns:
 	*** foobot: There is no such client
But if I do:
 	/msg foo <at> hostname something
then it works as expected.

So, as the server operator (with no router connections), is there a way I 
can do something so the "foo" namespace clears before I restart the bot?

I apologize for probably using the wrong terminology, but as I said, I'm a 
newb.  It's ok if you want to respond to me with RTFM, but that wouldn't 
be as helpful.  Cheers, and thanks!

Its not like that.  The problem is that you connect too fast for your  
client.
As nicknames are *not* unique in SILC, if your client still knows  
about the last incarnation of your bot, and you connect quickly  
enough with a new instance, the new instance will get the hostname  
appended.
Only way to fix this is to not start another instance of your bot  
until the first one is truly unregistered.

Re: nick reserved/remembered by server...timeout?

Hi Toni.  Thanks for your input.  In my experience you can't use the KILL 
command unless you have silcoper (router operator) privileges, which you 
can only get as a router operator.  Since my server is standalone, I can 
only get server operator privs, which don't let me use the KILL command.  
Or maybe there's something else I can put in my silcd.conf to allow me 
router operator privs?

By the way, this is server version 1.0.

I am probably not catching SIGINT as I should in order to shut down 
properly.  I will investigate that.

Everyone can use KILL to kill oneself. You just need to have the private 
and public keys in your possession. See /help kill in the silc-client.
