it will just accept it if it's from a remote server, and also ops/etc will be allowed
to REMOVE any unknown extbans (but not add new unknown ones).
- Added extended ban type ~n (nickchange ban), if a user matches this (s)he can not
change nicks (eg: +b ~n:*!*@*.aol.com) unless (s)he has voice or higher.
This can be useful as an overall measure for some +m chans (+b ~n:!*@*) or against
specific 'good' people that are just nickflooding due to a wrongly configured script.
- Added set::restrict-extendedbans by which you can disallow normal users to use
any extendedbans ("*") or disallow only certain ones (eg: "qc").
- Made the negative TS message a bit more annoying if time is off more than 10 seconds.
- Module coders: if CmdoverrideAdd() is called for an override that is already in place, it
now sets MODERR_EXISTS as errorcode and returns NULL (previously it added duplicates).
In the past module coders had many issues with PERM mods... you had to use weird tricks,
but now you can (and should!) just override on INIT and on HOOKTYPE_REHASH_COMPLETE.
- Moved register_user declaration to h.h, updated call in m_pingpong.c (due new 'ip' field).
- Usermode +v ('receive dcc send rejection notices') is oper-only now for privacy reasons.
- Added dcc allow { }, which allows one to make exceptions over deny dcc { }.
- Added deny dcc::soft and allow dcc::soft item, if set to 'yes' it allows someone
to explicitly override it per-person via /DCCALLOW (see next).
- Added DCCALLOW system, taken directly from bahamut.
With this system you can block certain (or all) DCC SENDs and then allow the user to
'override' this limit for every user he/she trusts via '/DCCALLOW +User'.
This is an attempt to stop (or at least limit) the spreading of viruses/etc.
See '/DCCALLOW HELP' for more info.
- Added example dccallow.conf which filters everything except some known
'safe types' (jpg, jpeg, png, gif, etc). Note that the purpose of this file
is NOT to get a complete list, rather to limit it to a few 'known safe' entries.
- Added set::maxdccallow: max number of entries of the DCCALLOW list (default: 10).
- Added release notes (no, we won't release 3.2.1 anytime soon.. just updating ;p).
- Added various extra messages to make it a bit more easier for people who are
upgrading (win32 commands.dll, cloaking mod).
- Made win32 ssl<->non-ssl modules binary compatible.
- Added ssl/non-ssl check in Mod_Version on *NIX.
- Added set::options::flat-map: This makes all servers look like they are linked
directly to the server you are on (/map, /links), thus you cannot see which server
is linked to which ("hopcount"). This can make it a bit harder for kiddies to find
any 'weak spots' (which server to attack/[D]DoS). Obviously opers will always
see the real map.
normal joins to the virus-help-channel. This way you could prevent users into
accidental (or tricked) joining of the virus-help-channel and becomming infected.
This feature is disabled by default. Requested by bleepy (#0001811).
- It now goes to <prefix> and higher, so '/notice +#chan hi!' goes to +vhoaq
- You need at least voice in order to be able to msg/notice +#chan, %#chan or @#chan
- You need at least ops in order to be able to msg/notice &#chan or ~#chan
- Any multi-prefix targets will be converted automatically (eg: ~&@#chan to @#chan).
- internal: use of the CHANOPPFX macro is now deprecated.
All of this was done to make it a bit more 'safe' and userfriendly (#0001812).
in a netjoin when there was no need to (nothing to synch).
- Added spamfilter::except which allows you to specify targets
(eg: channels) where spamfilter should not take action. Requested by Fury
(#0001586). Ex: set { spamfilter { except "#spamreport,#help"; }; };
- 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 ;).
- Fixed a few wrong macro's (ircstrdup/ircfree) in s_conf.c causing
very weird behavior... This also fixes a bug where set::spamfilter::ban-reason
would have the value of ban-time.
- Improved spamfilter again.
- The new syntax is:
/spamfilter [what] [type] [action] [tkltime] [reason] [regex]
[tkltime] specifies the duration of any *lines placed by this rule.
[reason] specifies the *line, kill and/or block reason.. no spaces
allowed, but '_' will be escaped to a space.
In both cases you can simply use '-' to skip and use the default.
Ex: /spamfilter add p block - - Come watch me on my webcam
/spamfilter add p gline 3h Please_go_to_www.viruscan.xx/
nicepage/virus=blah Come watch me on my webcam
- A message is now shown if the msg/notice/dcc is blocked.
- There are 2 new spamfilter action types:
'dccblock' will mark the user so (s)he's unable to send any files by DCC.
'viruschan' will part the user from all channels and join
set::spamfilter::virus-help-channel (default: #help).
this action might be improved to do more later.
- Internal: added EXTTKL PROTOCTL, this determinates if 10 parameters
instead of 8 are supported for m_tkl (used by spamfilter add).
This new system needs some testing... :)
