and also for safety when redoing DNS and ident due to IP change,
we now:
ClearIdentLookupSent(client);
ClearIdentLookup(client);
ClearDNSLookup(client);
It is now possible to override some set settings per-security group by
having a set block with a name, like `set unknown-users { }`
* You could use this to set more limitations for unknown-users:
```
set unknown-users {
max-channels-per-user 5;
static-quit "Quit";
static-part yes;
}
```
* Or to set higher values (higher than the normal set block)
for trusted users:
```
security-group trusted-bots {
account { BotOne; BotTwo; }
}
set trusted-bots {
max-channels-per-user 25;
}
```
* Currently the following settings can be used in a set xxx { } block:
set::auto-join, set::modes-on-connect, set::restrict-usermodes,
set::max-channels-per-user, set::static-quit, set::static-part.
That file has such a clear warning in it but still people
manage to load old ones. That being said, usually it is not
deliberate, like an cp ../unrealircd.old/conf/* conf/
https://www.unrealircd.org/docs/Set_block#set%3A%3Ahandshake-boot-delay
which allows server linking autoconnects to kick in (and incoming
servers on serversonly ports), before allowing clients in. This
potentially avoids part of the mess when initially linking on-boot.
This option is not turned on by default, you have to set it explicitly.
* This is not a useful feature on hubs, as they don't have clients.
* It can be useful on client servers, if you `autoconnect` to your hub.
* If you connect services to a server with clients this can be useful
as well, especially in single-server setups. You would have to set
a low `retrywait` in your anope conf (or similar services package)
of like `5s` instead of the default `60s`.
Then after an IRCd restart, your services link in before your clients
and your IRC users have SASL available straight from the start.
conf/rpc.modules.default.conf. This because:
1) It matches the default in example.conf for ircd.log
2) It is a more privacy-friendly setting
3) The log entries are spammy / fill the memory log buffer quickly
other remote included files still being downloaded.
This issue exists both with and without cURL, so in both url interfaces.
Was finally able to reproduce this on my own machine. This bug exists
since at least 6.0.0 and perhaps even before that. Just doesn't get
triggered that often due to needing an error and a certain timing
condition (well, and ASan catches it, but on some systems it may
go unnoticed).
(so listen::file). This way you can override the IP address that users come
online with when they use the socket (default was and still is `127.0.0.1`).
Add a new guide https://www.unrealircd.org/docs/Running_Tor_hidden_service_with_UnrealIRCd
which uses the new listen::spoof-ip and optionally requires a services account.
* We now only exempt `127.0.0.1` and `::1` by default (hardcoded in the source).
Previously we exempted whole `127.*` but that gets in the way if you want
to allow Tor with a
[require authentication](https://www.unrealircd.org/docs/Require_authentication_block)
block or soft-ban. Now you can just tell Tor to bind to `127.0.0.2`
so its not affected by the default exemption.

This uses unrealircd.org/real-quit-reason internally, but is only
exposed to servers, never to users. It results in using that quit
reason for IRCOps, while using the regular quit reason for normal users.
For example: +e ~flood:*:~account:TrustedBot
Suggested by PeGaSuS in https://bugs.unrealircd.org/view.php?id=6204
Will refine the checking and perhaps sorting of floodtype(s) later...
can be used from +f/+F as an action. You need to specify for which
flood type your mode is, eg `cmode.flood_type_action = 'j';` for joinflood.
Currently a mode can only choose one flood type action due to +f/+F
timer fights that could otherwise occur, but that shouldn't be too
much of an issue since we can live with that in core as well.
These were already not counted for set::anti-flood::xx::nick-flood
and it makes sense.
Benefit of this is that limits for floodtype 'n' can be set tighter,
as now it is really only about manual (voluntarily) nick changes.
This so multiple parallel requests can be handled properly.
JSON-RPC over websockets is unchanged, as every JSON-RPC
requests goes into its own websocket frame there (easy).
This will communicate the original issuer of a command.
For example an "SAMODE #test +s" results in a SAMODE coming from
:maintest.test.net MODE ....etc....
And with this feature, we will communicate the IRCOp who did it:
@unrealircd.org/issued-by=OPER:Syzop..etc....
This tag is only sent to servers and to IRCOps, not to ordinary users.
The plan is to support the following variants:
Services: unrealircd.org/issued-by=SERVICES:NickServ@services.test.net
IRCOp: unrealircd.org/issued-by=OPER:Syzop@maintest.test.net:Operblock_name
JSON-RPC: unrealircd.org/issued-by=RPC:adminpanel@irc1.test.net:Adminpanel_Actual_User
This first commit only adds SERVICES and OPER in the handlers of the
SVSNICK and SAMODE commands. The JSON-RPC variant and all of the other
commands have not been done yet.
See release notes:
+* The RPC modules are enabled by default now. This so remote RPC works
+ from other IRC servers for calls like `modules.list`. The default
+ configuration does not enable the webserver nor does it cause
+ listening on any socket for RPC, for that you need to follow the
+ [JSON-RPC](https://www.unrealircd.org/docs/JSON-RPC) instructions.
