So rename src/modules/m_*.c to src/modules/*.c and update makefiles
and modules.default.conf. Also remove m_ at various places in the
source files, but not the CMD_FUNC(), just the module name.
UnrealIRCd already protects (for maaaany years) with ping cookies against
this attack. Making the m_nopost redundant.
Also, another module may be more useful (more on this soon...).
This also includes buffer modifications to have a larger read buffer
and IRCv3 implementations (partial or not) for:
labeled-response, msgid, server-time, batch and account-tag.
As said, it is the initial and partial implementation.
There are still various FIXME's and TODO's, the API of various
functions may still change (actually that is true for the next
months, even) and some stuff is currently in the core that will
be moved to modules.
that these are just old examples from the year 2005.
Also, no longer include spamfilter.conf from the example*conf by
default as they do not contain any useful spamfilters nowadays.
Previously various information was only available for directly attached
servers, since it is communicated via PROTOCTL.
Now, we will also communicate information about leafs behind us.
IRCOps can use the /SINFO command to see these server features.
Services codes don't need to do anything, or at least are not expected
to do anything. They can still receive the information and do something
with it, of course...
Read the following technical documentation for full information,
as it will outline very specific rules for using the command S2S:
https://www.unrealircd.org/docs/Server_protocol:SINFO_command
https://www.unrealircd.org/docs/Authentication
And "require sasl" is now "require authentication"
(the old name will only raise a warning, not cause an error)
Note that authprompt currently only does the "require authentication"
stuff and not yet the soft-xx actions. That will be something for
later this week, but I've already documented it as such (here and
there anyway).
We previously introduced the "require sasl" block which allows you to
force users from certain IP addresses to authenticate with their nickname
and password via SASL. We now offer a new experimental module called
'saslemulation' which will help non-SASL users by showing a notice and
asking them to authenticate to their account via /AUTH <user>:<pass>.
See https://www.unrealircd.org/docs/Set_block#set::sasl-emulation
Note that this is work in progress, although the functionality of
already works. Still need to do some cleaning and expand the scope.
And more testing...
