with the same oper block. Suggested by kain.
- Made /dns oper-only (the ircd command, not your client /dns command :p).
- Various help.conf fixes. Reported by nukie (#0001373).
- 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.
this will currently produce a lot of warnings with -Wall.
- Fixed 159 of 184 warnings detected by the above, the other warnings are false.
Most warnings had to do with long vs int, and thus the format strings (%d->%ld)
or the vars (int->long) have been changed (many of these were time_t/TS vs int).
Only a few rare crashbugs were discovered.
- Module coders: for HOOKTYPE_LOCAL_CHANMODE the 'sendts' parameter was changed
from type 'int' to 'time_t', while in most circumstances (like on ia32)
you won't notice, I suggest you to update your callback functions anyway.
- Possibly fixed an issue with set::modes-on-join and mode +f, it could have
set random remove-chanmode times in the default chanmode line.
- 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..
- Changed some useless stuff.
- Enabled EXTCMODE by default, I presume it's stable but can't promise anything.
- Module coders: changed 'allowed' callback function for umodes&snomasks,
from 'aClient *sptr' to 'aClient *sptr, int what'.
'what' will be MODE_ADD if trying to add and MODE_DEL if trying to remove.
- Added checks for /sethost&/chghost to same host.
- Added remove-chanmode-after-X-minutes in +f.
The format is +f [30j#R5]:15, where 5 is the "do -R after 5 minutes". For a default
action like +i you would have to do the same: +f [30j#i5]:15 (remove 'i' after 5 minutes).
Additionally, 2 config items are added:
- set::modef-default-unsettime, if this is set to for example '5' then things like
+f [30j]:15 will be transormed into +f [30j#i5]:15. It's just a default, the user can still
override it. By default this feature is not used.
- set::modef-max-unsettime, specifies the maximum amount of time for the <time> parameter,
by default this is set to 60 (=1 hour), the value should be between 0 and 255.
I didn't do the extended tests I usually do but it seems stable, also the docs are updated
but are probably updated again later to make it a bit more readable.
Feel free to report any bugs as soon as you discover them.
The only thing I could think of is: _usually_ only 1 server will have the -i/-R/.. timer
running, so if that server splits (or even worse dies) it will only be -i/-R/.. at that server
and when they sync back they merge chanmodes so +i/+R is set again.
I don't consider this a huge problem but maybe it can be inconveniently, if people have
a lot of trouble with this I'll have to consider a 50% recode of the +f system :/.
==
- Allow o/a/q'd users to nickchange if banned (#0001150).
- Added badword all { }, this will add the badword to the badword channel, badword message
and badword quit lists... could be useful :p.
- Little config.h cleanup (removed obsolete non-working defines).
===
- Internal code cleanups: EOS var rename, got rid of old UnknownUser structs, moved
anti away flood to new flood struct.
- Changed away flood configuration to set::anti-flood::away-flood <count>:<period>.
- Added nickflood protection, can be set in set::anti-flood::away-flood <count>:<period>
to allow max 'count' nickchanges per 'period' seconds. The default is 3 per 60s.
As usual, the nickchange limiting does not apply to ircops.
- 005 CHANMODES= set back to original value before extcmode merge
- made some functions in channel.c non-static so module coders
can use them (they are not defined in the header files [yet] however).
- fixed 2 minor oob write issues
