15 # The [Global] section of this file is used to define the main
16 # configuration of the server, like the server name and the ports
17 # on which the server should be listening.
19 # Server name in the IRC-network
22 # Info text of the server. This will be shown by WHOIS and
23 # LINKS requests for example.

28 ;AdminInfo1 = Description

36 # Text file with the "message of the day" (MOTD). This message will
37 # be shown to all users connecting to the server:
38 ;MotdFile = /usr/local/etc/ngircd.motd
40 # User ID under which the server should run; you can use the name
41 # of the user or the numerical ID. ATTENTION: For this to work the
42 # server must have been started with root privileges! In addition,
43 # the configuration and MOTD files must be readable by this user,
44 # otherwise RESTART and REHASH won't work!
47 # Group ID under which the ngircd should run; you can use the name
48 # of the group or the numerical ID. ATTENTION: For this to work the
49 # server must have been started with root privileges!
52 # After <PingTimeout> seconds of inactivity the server will send a
53 # PING to the peer to test whether it is alive or not.
56 # If a client fails to answer a PING with a PONG within <PongTimeout>
57 # seconds, it will be disconnected by the server.
60 # The server tries every <ConnectRetry> seconds to establish a link
61 # to not yet (or no longer) connected servers.
64 # Should IRC Operators be allowed to use the MODE command even if
65 # they are not(!) channel-operators?
68 # Maximum number of simultaneous connection the server is allowed
69 # to accept (<=0: unlimited):
72 # Maximum number of channels a user can be member of (<=0: no limit):
76 # [Operator] sections are used to define IRC Operators. There may be
77 # more than one [Operator] block, one for each local operator.
79 # ID of the operator (may be different of the nick name)
82 # Password of the IRC operator
86 # Other servers are configured in [Server] sections. If you
87 # configure a port for the connection, then this ngircd tries to
88 # connect to to the other server on the given port; if not it waits
89 # for the other server to connect.
90 # There may be more than one server block.
93 # The ngIRCd allows "server groups": You can assign an "ID" to every
94 # server with which you want this ngIRCd to link. If a server of a
95 # group won't answer, the ngIRCd tries to connect to the next server
96 # in the given group. But the ngircd never tries to connect to two
97 # servers with the same group ID.
99 # IRC name of the server
102 # Internet host name of the peer
103 ;Host = connect-to-host.the.net
105 # Port of the server to which the ngIRCd should connect. If you
106 # assign no port the ngIRCd waits for incoming connections.
109 # Own password for the connection. This password has to be configured
110 # as "PeerPassword" on the other server.

113 # Foreign password for this connection. This password has to be
114 # configured as "MyPassword" on the other server.

117 # Group of this server (optional)
121 # Pre-defined channels can be configured in [Channel] sections.
122 # Such channels are created by the server when starting up and even
123 # persist when there are no more members left.
124 # Persistent channels are marked with the mode 'P', which can be set
125 # and unset by IRC operators like other modes on the fly.
126 # There may be more than one [Channel] block.
128 # Name of the channel
131 # Topic for this channel
