added glinebot example @ real command aliases / updated description...
- Added 'real' aliases, this are aliases that map to real commands, so you can for example
map the command '/GLINEBOT <x>' to 'GLINE <x> 2d Bots are not allowed on this server, blabla'.
See the documentation on the alias block for more information. doc/example.conf contains an
example as well (search for "glinebot").
map the command '/BLAH 5' to 'NICK idiot5'. More info in docs on alias block.
- Modulized: badwords system (src/badwords.c is now gone) and StripColors/StripControlCodes
to m_message, multiple netsynch routines to m_server, send_list to m_list, a certain mode
routine to m_svsmode, all /MSG IRC.. webtv stuff to src/modules/webtv.c which is compiled
with m_message.
This means another ~1500 lines of code are now in modules (and thus can be upgraded on
the fly), which brings the total of modulized lines at 32K.
synchronize the IRCd clock (TSOffset) with a few good time servers. It currently only does
this on-boot, but it will hopefully help a lot of people with most of their time differences.
I still keep recommending anyone who can to run proper time-synchronization software such as
ntpd/ntpdate on their servers.
To disable time synchronization (eg: because you are already running ntp), you can simply
set set::timesynch::enabled to no.
The boot timeout for the timeserver response (=causes boot delay) can be configured via
set::timesynch::timeout and is set to 3 seconds by default (range is 1s-5s), there should
be no reason to change this.
The time server can be configured by setting set::timesynch::server, the default is to
use 3 time servers on 3 continents (US, EU, AU) which should be sufficient for anyone but
if you got a good one near you you can use that one instead.
The time protocol we use is (S)NTP v4.
- Rephrased/editted part of example.conf and unreal32docs to make it a littttttle bit easier
for beginners / try to mention the FAQ a bit more explicitly.
We now support the webirc ('webirc_password' in CGI:IRC) method, which is kinda superior
to the older method ('realhost_as_password').
See the Unreal documentation (section '4.36 - Cgiirc Block') for details on how to configure.
- Changed quoting color in unreal32docs.. looks better now IMO (only English docs updated).
"trusted" and the IRCd will show the users' _real_ host/ip everywhere on IRC, instead of the
_CGI:IRC-gateway_ host/ip.
To do so you must set 'realhost_as_password' to 1 in your cgiirc.conf. And add the
CGI:IRC gateway(s) you fully trust to set::cgiirc::hosts.
