method to authenticate users with SSL client certificates based on SHA256 fingerprints. This can be used instead of the already existing 'sslclientcert' so you don't have to use an external file. One way to get the SHA256 fingerprint would be: openssl x509 -in name-of-pem-file.pem -sha256 -noout -fingerprint Suggested and patch supplied by Jobe (#4019). - Added documentation on the new sslclientcertfp - Moved documentation on authentication types to one place and refer to it from each section (oper::password, vhost::password, link::password-receive, etc).
==[ COMPILING ]== To build the ircd, run: ./Config make If you specified an alternative location during ./Config you also need to run "make install". ==[ MAKING A CONFIG FILE ]== If you are new, then you need to create your own configfile: copy doc/example.conf to your main UnrealIRCd directory and call it unrealircd.conf . Then open it in an editor and carefully modify it, consult the docs (doc/unreal32docs.html, or online: www.unrealircd.com/unreal32docs.html) for more information about every block/setting. Common problems are explained in the FAQ, which is located at: http://www.vulnscan.org/UnrealIrcd/faq/ . ==[ BOOTING YOUR IRCD ]== Just type: ./unreal start Note that after booting the errors are usually logged to ircd.log, so check that file if you have any problems. Again, check the FAQ (and docs) if you have any boot problems.
