- Redid some net synching code to make it more efficient (#2716).
- Fixed spamfilter crash problem: the action 'viruschan' is now no longer incompatible
with target 'user'. Reported by Monk (#0002570).
It also sends a numeric to the user saying the command has been processed, but a copy
has been sent to ircops. I feel this is a good idea for privacy reasons (anti-spy),
though I don't know how users will react to this. If you are using this on your network
and get users bothering you about it (or before that ;p), it's probably a good idea
to explain it somewhere on your site or FAQ :).
Example usage:
/spamfilter add p warn - Testing_mirc_decode_filter \$decode\(.*\)
[WARNING] The numeric text is likely to change in the next few weeks (early-cvs-commit).
- If a class block was removed and any other blocks would be referencing the class block
(such as: allow::class, oper::class, link::class), then this would cause a crash.
Reported by Mike_ (#0002646).
- Improved 'viruschan' spamfilter target:
- better msg after the forced join
- +oaq's in set::spamfilter::virus-help-channel receive a notice about
which filter the user matched.
- it disables all commands except PONG, ADMIN, and msg/notices to
set::spamfilter::virus-help-channel.
- Made snomask +S also show the spamfilter reason field.
- Added class::pingfreq checking, should be 30-600 now.. else you might
get mysterious (mass) disconnect issues.
- Lol, I made /connect dissapear during modulizing ;).
- Added snomasks 'S' (Spamfilter) which notifies you of any spamfilter matches.
- [internal] always return after spamfilter match, don't continue looping trough
targets list (eg in case of: /msg #a,#b,#c spamspam), otherwise you would get
duplicate notification msgs.
- Added SENDSNO server command, similar to SENDUMODE but for snomasks, this is
used by the spamfilter snomask (+S) so you get network-wide notifications.
- Added "compiled for.." versioning system, this way a beta17 module can't be loaded
on beta18, etc... People often forgot to recompile their modules or had old ones
somewhere by mistake, therefore crashing after upgrades... this should fix this
(in the future). Module coders don't have to do anything for making this work,
it's done automatically (via modules.h).
- Normal users can now get a list, versioninfo will be hidden however.
- Opers get some additional details like hooks and commandoverride's.
- Opers can use /module <servername> to get a remote list of loaded modules.
- Added flag [3RD] to show it's a 3rd party module
This was requested by by quite some people because serveradmins started to load
"spy modules" without clearly mentioning it in the MOTD (which is highly unethical
and in some countries even illegal due to privacy law). Also the remote module
list was requested by quite a few opers.
Sure, this isn't a 100% guarantee but at least if someone goes hiding stuff
then it's clear what their intentions are (and thus will be refused support, ..).
- Changed emailaddr in help window at windows to unreal-users mailinglist.
- Made the cloak mismatch msg during linking a bit more scary.
- Added comment to 'Install as a service' option in installer to help n00bs a bit.
- Added 'action' field to ban version { } which can be: kill: kills the user (default),
tempshun: shun the specific connection only, kline/zline/gline/gzline/shun: place
a ban on *@IP. Time of those bans can be specified in set::ban-version-tkl-time.
It's up to the admin to take a good decision, sometimes zlines are best (=won't use
much sockets but will reconnect quite quickly), sometimes tempshun (=will use 1 socket
but generates nearly no network traffic), sometimes klines/glines, etc..
this allows the admin to decide a standard custom quit for users. so they
won't be able to make their own quits. This affects set::prefix-quit and
ANTI_SPAM_QUIT_TIME - it simply replaces it with the message if enabled
