- Added information about ``oper::password::auth-type sslclientcert'' and the same for link::password-receive::auth-type. (#3133)
- A little bit more of interlinking and using id="" instead of <a name="" />
redundant and confusing. Also removed an old statement saying k-lines would
be erased on rehash which is not true. Documented '/rehash -dns'.
Reported by ohnobinki (#0003881).
having to use a special SSL-only port, they can simply switch to SSL on
any port. This is currently only supported by few clients (such as KVIrc 4).
This functionality can be disabled by setting set::ssl::options::no-starttls,
for example if you don't want to offer SSL to your users and only want it
to be used for server to server links.
Naturally, the IRCd must be compiled with SSL support for STARTTLS to work.
- Fixed SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ in IRCd_ssl_write()
set::spamfilter::slowdetect-fatal, set::ssl::server-cipher-list,
set::ssl::renegotiate-bytes, set::ssl::renegotiate-timeout,
set::watch-away-notification and ./unreal gencloak. Reported by Bock
(#0003764).
- set::ssl::renegotiate-bytes: fix when specifying a value such as 10m.
- './unreal gencloak' now actually works
- Fix typo in user mode q notice, reported by Strawberry_Kittens and others
(#0003761).
- Possible fix for MAC OS X compile problem - UNCONFIRMED.
- Improved description of link::hub/leaf/leafdepth in unreal32docs.html reported by Bugz (#2623),
also fixed typo (leafdepth, not leaf-depth), reported by monas (#3083).
- Fixed set::dns::bind-ip directive seen as duplicate, reported by aegis (#0003074).
- set::dns::* block is now no longer mandatory. All info has always been read from
/etc/resolv.conf (*NIX) or the registry (Win32), and the set::dns block is ignored
(except for set::dns::bind-ip, but that's a special case). Suggested by many including
djGrrr to make things slightly more logical (#0003019).
- As a consequence of the above, set::dns blocks were removed from doc/example*conf.
- Added two more characters to Catalan charset, reported by rmh (#0002995).
- Added set::pingpong-warning [yes|no] which decides whether to send the "** If you are
having problems connecting due to ping timeouts, please type /quote pong .." message
to each client when NOSPOOF is enabled (usually on Win32). The default is NO.
Previously this message was always sent if NOSPOOF was on, which often caused
confusion among users. The message was intended for non-confirming clients, but these
should be fixed by now, and those that were not fixed (self-made bots/etc) did often
not understand the message anyway. Anyway, you can still turn it on ;). (#2680).
though it always acted like it did in the MODE line sent to the channel. This bug caused
desynchs in some cases. Bug reported by Korfio (#0003048).
- Fixes to SVSNICK: case-change no longer causes a collision, don't return the value from
exit_client (which would be FLUSH_BUFFER), fix QUIT not being sent back on collision.
- Fix for above so it doesn't -r the client.
- Renamed unreal32docs.tk.html to unreal32docs.tr.html
- Module coders: Added HOOKTYPE_POST_SERVER_CONNECT (1 param: cptr) which is called when
a server connects, just like HOOTYPE_SERVER_CONNECT but this is actually called *after*
all clients and channels are synched. Obviously needed for some modules which must synch
data that refers to clients/channels that would otherwise not exist yet on the other side.
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.
