Ports that listen on 127.0.0.1 or ::1 are ignored (useful for e.g. services)
Looks like this:
[info] You have at least one IRC plaintext port open (such as 5668). Nowadays, everyone should be using SSL/TLS (on port 6697). See https://www.unrealircd.org/docs/Use_TLS.
See that https://www.unrealircd.org/docs/Use_TLS for more info (feedback welcome)
All this is in addition to somewhat related 29ce0ce29a:
[info] Your SSL/TLS certificate is not issued by a trusted Certificate Authority.
[info] It is highly recommended to use a 'real certificate'. To get a free one, see: https://www.unrealircd.org/docs/Using_Let's_Encrypt_with_UnrealIRCd
If applicable, that message is printed first, the 6667 one comes after ;)
Suggested in https://bugs.unrealircd.org/view.php?id=6500
and numerous times / discussions on IRC over the past years
It's finally time.. no.. it's overdue..
