11 71ae2b7d 2020-01-02 alex ngIRCd 26.1 (2021-01-02)
13 cbd8e5b5 2020-01-01 alex - Fix a "format string" compiler warning (detected on OpenBSD).
14 cbd8e5b5 2020-01-01 alex - No longer set "AI_ADDRCONFIG" when resolving host names, even when it
15 cbd8e5b5 2020-01-01 alex exists: with this option set, on an IPv6-only host, we prevent 127.0.0.1
16 cbd8e5b5 2020-01-01 alex to get translated properly, even when the loopback interface has this
17 cbd8e5b5 2020-01-01 alex address configured! And as the test suite uses 127.0.0.1, it was broken
18 cbd8e5b5 2020-01-01 alex on IPv6-only hosts.
19 cbd8e5b5 2020-01-01 alex The drawback is that the resolver possibly returns more addresses now,
20 cbd8e5b5 2020-01-01 alex even of an unsupported/not connected address family; but this shouldn't
21 cbd8e5b5 2020-01-01 alex do much harm in practice, as ngIRCd iterates over all returned addresses
22 cbd8e5b5 2020-01-01 alex while trying to establish an outgoing connection.
23 cbd8e5b5 2020-01-01 alex Closes #281.
24 cbd8e5b5 2020-01-01 alex - Revert "Show allowed channel types in ISUPPORT(005) numeric only", which
25 cbd8e5b5 2020-01-01 alex was introduced in 26~rc1: This lead to some IRC clients assuming "oh, no
26 cbd8e5b5 2020-01-01 alex channel prefix characters at all, so no channels at all, so no PRIVMSG can
27 cbd8e5b5 2020-01-01 alex go to any channel" when "AllowedChannelTypes" was set to the empty string
28 cbd8e5b5 2020-01-01 alex ("") -- which is not the case when there are pre-defined channel set up or
29 cbd8e5b5 2020-01-01 alex other servers still having channels!
30 cbd8e5b5 2020-01-01 alex So "allowed channel types" != "supported channel types", and we always have
31 cbd8e5b5 2020-01-01 alex to list all supported ones in the ISUPPORT(005) numeric!
32 cbd8e5b5 2020-01-01 alex Closes #285.
33 cbd8e5b5 2020-01-01 alex - Test suite: Wait 2 seconds after reloading the daemon, which is required
34 cbd8e5b5 2020-01-01 alex because on reload, all listening ports are closed, configuration updated,
35 cbd8e5b5 2020-01-01 alex and then opened again. This lead to subsequent tests running while the
36 cbd8e5b5 2020-01-01 alex daemon isn't listening on any ports, and that's why some tests could fail.
37 cbd8e5b5 2020-01-01 alex Closes #280.
38 cbd8e5b5 2020-01-01 alex - platformtest.sh: Try to mangle CLang name more intelligently.
39 cbd8e5b5 2020-01-01 alex - Documentation: Fixed URLs of Atheme IRC services, updated all mentions
40 cbd8e5b5 2020-01-01 alex from CVS to Git, and updated Platforms.txt -- Oh, and it is 2021 now! ;-)
42 0f717bfd 2020-06-20 alex ngIRCd 26 (2020-06-20)
44 4bcf4613 2020-06-11 alex ngIRCd 26~rc2 (2020-06-11)
45 c55a8328 2020-06-11 alex - Add AppStream metadata file (contrib/de.barton.ngircd.metainfo.xml).
46 c55a8328 2020-06-11 alex - Don't send invalid CHANINFO commands when a channel has mode +k set but no
47 c55a8328 2020-06-11 alex key is known to the server. This can happen with a misconfigured predefined
48 c55a8328 2020-06-11 alex channel, for example, and looked like this: "CHANINFO #test +Pk 0 :" --
49 c55a8328 2020-06-11 alex note the unset key represented by the two spaces. Fix this by sending a
50 c55a8328 2020-06-11 alex "*" in this case and update the CHANINFO documentation, too.
51 b003d469 2020-05-31 alex - ngircd.spec: Fix names of README.md and INSTALL.md, add ".md" extension.
52 b003d469 2020-05-31 alex - Update description texts in the README.md file, the RPM and Debian package
53 b003d469 2020-05-31 alex files and the manual page: bring them in line with the updated homepage.
54 b003d469 2020-05-31 alex - Server-Server protocol: Fix use-after-free when unregistering a directly
55 b003d469 2020-05-31 alex connected server sending a SQUIT for itself.
56 b003d469 2020-05-31 alex - Server-Server protocol: Detect bogus SERVER commands lacking a prefix.
57 b003d469 2020-05-31 alex Thanks Hilko Bengen (hillu) for finding & reporting this as well for the
58 b003d469 2020-05-31 alex patch & pull request (even if fixed differently).
59 b003d469 2020-05-31 alex Closes #275.
60 b003d469 2020-05-31 alex - Fix the PING-PONG logic: In ngIRCd 26~rc1 this was completely broken (while
61 b003d469 2020-05-31 alex trying to fix timeouts during server handshakes in bigger networks): the
62 b003d469 2020-05-31 alex daemon never disconnected any stale peers but kept sending out PINGs over
63 b003d469 2020-05-31 alex and over again ...
64 b003d469 2020-05-31 alex - Test suite: Add missing files needed to test SSL support to "EXTRA_DIST",
65 b003d469 2020-05-31 alex so that they are included in distribution archives: in rc1, "make check"
66 b003d469 2020-05-31 alex fails when using sources from an archive and enabling SSL support.
67 b003d469 2020-05-31 alex Thanks to Hilko Bengen <bengen@hilluzination.de> for the patch!
69 03aec7d0 2020-05-10 alex ngIRCd 26~rc1 (2020-05-10)
70 05261c02 2020-05-09 alex - Tweak & update doc/HowToRelease.txt, .mailmap and AUTHORS files.
71 05261c02 2020-05-09 alex - Allow up to 512 characters per line in MOTD and help text files (but keep
72 05261c02 2020-05-09 alex in mind that lines can't get that long, because they have to be prefixed
73 05261c02 2020-05-09 alex before being sent to the client). But this allows for more fancy MOTDs :-)
74 05261c02 2020-05-09 alex Closes #271.
75 05261c02 2020-05-09 alex - Show the actually allowed channel types in the ISUPPORT(005) numeric which
76 05261c02 2020-05-09 alex are configured by the "AllowedChannelTypes" configuration variable.
77 05261c02 2020-05-09 alex Closes #273.
78 05261c02 2020-05-09 alex - Handle commands in the read buffer before reading more data and don't wait
79 05261c02 2020-05-09 alex for the network in this case: If there are more bytes in the read buffer
80 05261c02 2020-05-09 alex already than a single valid IRC command can get long (513 bytes), wait for
81 05261c02 2020-05-09 alex this/those command(s) to be handled first and don't try to read even more
82 05261c02 2020-05-09 alex data from the network (which most probably would overflow the read buffer
83 05261c02 2020-05-09 alex of this connection soon).
84 b003d469 2020-05-31 alex - Update Travis-CI configuration, "sudo" is deprecated.
85 05261c02 2020-05-09 alex - Log G-/K-Line changes only when not initiated by a server: this prevents
86 b003d469 2020-05-31 alex the log from becoming spammed during "net bursts".
87 05261c02 2020-05-09 alex - Update test suite to include SSL tests, including checking for reloading
88 05261c02 2020-05-09 alex certificates during runtime.
89 05261c02 2020-05-09 alex - Makefile.am: Replace "make" with "${MAKE}". This fixes warnings like this:
90 05261c02 2020-05-09 alex "warning: jobserver unavailable: using -j1. Add `+' to parent make rule."
91 05261c02 2020-05-09 alex Thanks to Sam James (sam_c) <sam@cmpct.info>!
92 05261c02 2020-05-09 alex Closes #270.
93 05261c02 2020-05-09 alex - Add support for GnuTLS certificate reload, which is quite handy when using
94 05261c02 2020-05-09 alex Let's Encrypt, for example. Until now this was only supported when linked
95 05261c02 2020-05-09 alex with OpenSSL. Thanks a lot, Hilko Bengen <bengen@hilluzination.de>!
96 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex - Remove deprecated legacy configuration options and related functions that
97 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex have been marked for removal for quite some time:
98 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex - PredefChannelsOnly (v22)
99 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex - NoticeAuth (v24)
100 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex - NoXXX (v19)
101 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex - Old '[GLOBAL]' section handling (v19)
102 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex Thanks to Michi <michi+ngircd@dataswamp.org> for the patch!
103 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex - Fix recursion bug on write errors: Depending on the stack size, too many
104 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex clients on the same channel quitting at the same time would trigger a crash
105 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex due to too many recursive calls to Conn_Close(). Thanks to Michi
106 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex <michi+ngircd@dataswamp.org> for the patch!
107 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex - Fix builds using GCC option -fno-common, which is the default starting with
108 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex GCC 10. Thanks to Michi <michi+ngircd@dataswamp.org> for the patch!
109 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex Closes #266.
110 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex - Convert INSTALL and README files to Markdown.
111 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex - Allow setting arbitrary channel modes in the configuration file by handling
112 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex them like in MODE commands, and allow multiple "Modes =" lines per [Channel]
113 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex section. Thanks to Michi <michi+ngircd@dataswamp.org>!
114 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex Closes #55.
115 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex - Add "FNC" (forced nick changes) to ISUPPORT(005) numeric. Most probably
116 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex this doesn't make any difference to any client, but it seems correct.
117 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex See <http://www.irc.org/tech_docs/005.html> for details.
118 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex - Reuse old SSL key if loading a new one failed.
119 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex - Remove outdated OpenBSD/NetBSD systrace.policy.
120 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex - Enhance handling of command line errors, and return with exit code 0 ("no
121 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex error") when "--help" or "--version" is used (which resulted in exit code 1,
122 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex "error" before). Exit with code 2 ("command line error") for all other
123 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex invalid command line options, and show the error message itself on stderr
124 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex (instead of stdout and exit code 1, "generic error", as before).
125 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex This new behaviour is more in line with the GNU "coding standards",
126 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex see <https://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/html_node/_002d_002dhelp.html>.
127 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex - Fix and update Xcode project: Reference correct contrib/Makefile.am file,
128 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex correctly sort contrib/nglog.sh and add "ORGANIZATIONNAME" setting.
129 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex - contrib/ngindent.sh: Add more GNU indent options for better results, and
130 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex add the ".sh" suffix to bring this script in line with the others in the
131 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex contrib/ folder.
132 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex - Add ./contrib/nglog.sh: This script parses the log output of ngircd(8),
133 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex and colorizes the messages according to their log level. Example usage:
134 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex ngircd -f $PWD/doc/sample-ngircd.conf -np | ./contrib/nglog.sh
135 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex - Log received signals with their names using strsignal(3), when available.
136 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex - Make test suite compatible with Haiku OS.
137 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex - Fix host mask cloaking bug, don't cloak multiple times: Previously, each
138 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex server would cloak every user's host mask. The problem is that if a network
139 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex has more than one server, then a user's host mask would get cloaked twice.
140 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex This patch ensures that a server only cloaks the host mask if it has not yet
141 05324b23 2020-04-20 alex been cloaked (the period indicates it's still an IP address). Thanks to
142 05324b23 2020-04-20 alex JRMU <jrmu@lecturify.com> for the patch!
143 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex Closes #228.
144 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex - Enlarge buffers of info texts to 128 bytes. This includes:
145 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex - "Real name" of a client (4th filed of the USER command).
146 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex - Server info text ("Info" configuration option).
147 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex - Admin info texts and email address ("AdminInfo1", "AdminInfo2" and
148 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex "AdminEmail" configuration options).
149 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex - Network name ("Network" configuration option).
150 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex The limit was 64 bytes before ...
151 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex Closes #258.
152 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex - Streamline handling of invalid and unset server name: Don't exit during
153 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex runtime (REHASH command, HUP signal), because the server name can't be
154 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex changed in this case anyway and the new invalid name will be ignored.
155 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex - Fix and extend documentation: Fix some typos, fix syntax of LINKS and LIST
156 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex commands, whitespace and spelling fixes, update dependencies and add some
157 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex more information about IRCv3 support.
158 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex Thanks to Thanks Windree, Étienne Mollier <etienne.mollier@mailoo.org> and
159 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex Christoph Biedl <debian.axhn@manchmal.in-ulm.de>.
160 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex Closes #264.
161 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex - Slightly reorder startup steps, and enhance logging:
162 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex - Show name of configuration file at the beginning of start up.
163 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex - Add a message when ngIRCd is ready, including its host name.
164 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex - Show name of configuration file on REHASH (SIGHUP), too.
165 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex - Change level of "done message" to NOTICE, like "starting" & "ready".
166 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex - Initialize IO functions before channels, connections, clients, ...
167 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex - configure.ng: OpenSSL can depends on lz or latomic so use pkg-config to
168 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex find those dependencies and fallback to existing mechanism.
169 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex Closes #256.
170 ea120723 2020-04-20 alex - ngircd.conf.5: Fix wording as suggested by lintian.
172 74631fa7 2019-01-23 alex ngIRCd 25 (2019-01-23)
174 74631fa7 2019-01-23 alex - Fix documentation of MotdPhrase length, which actually is 126 characters:
175 74631fa7 2019-01-23 alex update sample configuration file as well as the man page. Thanks to
176 74631fa7 2019-01-23 alex shankari <shankari@eecs.berkeley.edu>.
177 74631fa7 2019-01-23 alex Closes #254.
178 74631fa7 2019-01-23 alex - Implement new configuration option "MaxPenaltyTime", which configures the
179 74631fa7 2019-01-23 alex maximum penalty time increase in seconds, per penalty event. Set to -1 for
180 74631fa7 2019-01-23 alex no limit (the default), 0 to disable penalties altogether. ngIRCd doesn't
181 74631fa7 2019-01-23 alex use penalty increases higher than 2 seconds during normal operation, so
182 74631fa7 2019-01-23 alex values higher than 1 rarely make sense.
183 74631fa7 2019-01-23 alex Disabling (or reducing) penalties can greatly speed up "make check" runs
184 74631fa7 2019-01-23 alex for example, see below, but are mostly a debugging feature and normally
185 74631fa7 2019-01-23 alex not meant to be used on production systems!
186 74631fa7 2019-01-23 alex Some example timings running "make check" from my macOS workstation:
187 74631fa7 2019-01-23 alex - MaxPenaltyTime not set: 4:41,79s
188 74631fa7 2019-01-23 alex - "MaxPenaltyTime = 1": 3:14,71s
189 74631fa7 2019-01-23 alex - "MaxPenaltyTime = 0": 25,46s
190 74631fa7 2019-01-23 alex Closes #249 and #251.
191 74631fa7 2019-01-23 alex - Fix compilation without deprecated OpenSSL APIs. Thanks to Rosen Penev
192 74631fa7 2019-01-23 alex <rosenp@gmail.com> for the patch!
193 74631fa7 2019-01-23 alex Closes #252.
194 74631fa7 2019-01-23 alex - Update Xcode project for latest Xcode version (10.0)
195 74631fa7 2019-01-23 alex - Fix some compiler warnings of Apple Xcode/Clang
196 74631fa7 2019-01-23 alex - Allow a 5th parameter in WEBIRC. Thanks to "ItsOnlyBinary".
197 74631fa7 2019-01-23 alex Closes #247.
198 74631fa7 2019-01-23 alex - Update some more documentation files and source code comments.
199 74631fa7 2019-01-23 alex - Platforms.txt: Add and update systems.
201 8bd88be8 2018-08-11 alex ngIRCd 25~rc1 (2018-08-11)
202 8bd88be8 2018-08-11 alex - Update config.guess (2018-03-08) and config.sub (2018-03-08) files.
203 263c5edb 2018-03-25 alex - Correctly retry to establish an outgoing connections when forking of the
204 263c5edb 2018-03-25 alex resolver sub-process failed (for example because of lack of free memory).
205 263c5edb 2018-03-25 alex Until now, such a connection was never retried once this error was hit.
206 263c5edb 2018-03-25 alex Thanks to Robert Obermeier for reporting this bug!
207 263c5edb 2018-03-25 alex Closes #243.
208 263c5edb 2018-03-25 alex - Fix a "use after free" bug which can be triggered on a newly established
209 263c5edb 2018-03-25 alex connection when the daemon handles an ERROR command received from the peer
210 263c5edb 2018-03-25 alex during client login. Thanks a lot to Joseph Bisch <joseph.bisch@gmail.com>
211 263c5edb 2018-03-25 alex for discovering and reporting this issue!
212 263c5edb 2018-03-25 alex - Only send TOPIC updates to a channel when the topic actually changed:
213 263c5edb 2018-03-25 alex This prevents the channel from becoming flooded by unnecessary TOPIC update
214 263c5edb 2018-03-25 alex messages, that can happen when IRC services try to enforce a certain topic
215 263c5edb 2018-03-25 alex but which is already set (at least on the local server), for example.
216 263c5edb 2018-03-25 alex Therefore still forward it to all servers, but don't inform local clients
217 263c5edb 2018-03-25 alex (still update setter and timestamp information, though).
218 263c5edb 2018-03-25 alex - Update Xcode project for latest Xcode version (9.2). This includes adding
219 263c5edb 2018-03-25 alex missing and deleting obsolete file references.
220 263c5edb 2018-03-25 alex - Handle user mode "C" ("Only users that share a channel are allowed to send
221 263c5edb 2018-03-25 alex messages") like user mode "b" ("block private messages and notices"): allow
222 263c5edb 2018-03-25 alex messages from servers, services, and IRC Operators, too. Change proposed by
223 263c5edb 2018-03-25 alex "wowaname" back in 2015 in #ngircd, thanks!
224 3559940e 2018-02-11 alex - Fix some compiler warnings.
225 8bd88be8 2018-08-11 alex - Add contrib/ngircd.logcheck: Some sample logcheck(8) rules.
226 3559940e 2018-02-11 alex - Allow IRC Ops and remote servers to KILL service clients: such clients
227 3559940e 2018-02-11 alex behave like regular users, therefore IRC operators and servers should be
228 3559940e 2018-02-11 alex able to KILL them: for example to resolve nick collisions.
229 3559940e 2018-02-11 alex Closes #242.
230 3559940e 2018-02-11 alex - Don't forward KILLs to other servers if they've been blocked locally:
231 3559940e 2018-02-11 alex This prevents clients from killing IRC services, for example.
232 3559940e 2018-02-11 alex Closes #238 and #239.
233 3559940e 2018-02-11 alex - Fix a cross-compiler issue related to the Get_Error() function.
234 3559940e 2018-02-11 alex Closes #240 and #241.
235 3559940e 2018-02-11 alex - Update ./doc/Services.txt, enhance configuration examples.
237 e17d4bde 2017-01-20 alex ngIRCd 24 (2017-01-20)
239 e17d4bde 2017-01-20 alex - Make sure that ./contrib/platformtest.sh aborts when ./autogen.sh fails.
240 e17d4bde 2017-01-20 alex - Update config.guess (2016-10-02) and config.sub (2016-11-04) files.
241 e17d4bde 2017-01-20 alex - Build Debian packages with OpenSSL instead of GnuTLS: OpenSSL allows
242 e17d4bde 2017-01-20 alex to reload used certificates on runtime for example (which is very
243 e17d4bde 2017-01-20 alex useful when using Let's Encrypt), and therefore is preferred. And
244 e17d4bde 2017-01-20 alex explicitly specify the "source format".
245 e17d4bde 2017-01-20 alex - Fix handling of connection pool allocation and enlargement: up to now,
246 e17d4bde 2017-01-20 alex the daemon only enlarged its connection pool when accepting new incoming
247 e17d4bde 2017-01-20 alex client or server connections, not when establishing new outgoing server
248 e17d4bde 2017-01-20 alex links, which could lead to problems when hitting the configured limit,
249 e17d4bde 2017-01-20 alex see "MaxConnections". Thanks to Lukas Braun (k00mi) for reporting this!
250 e17d4bde 2017-01-20 alex Closes #231.
252 479d7d99 2017-01-08 alex ngIRCd 24~rc1 (2017-01-07)
253 479d7d99 2017-01-08 alex - Enhance systemd service file, and install it in Debian package.
254 479d7d99 2017-01-08 alex - Update configuration of Debian package.
255 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex - Log privilege violations and failed OPER request with log level "error"
256 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex and send it to the "&SERVER" channel, too.
257 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex - Immediately shut down connection when receiving an "ERROR" command,
258 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex don't wait for the peer to close the connection. This allows the daemon
259 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex to forward the received "ERROR" message in the network, instead of the
260 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex very generic "client closed connection" message.
261 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex - Fix sending of entry duration (no negative values!) when synchronizing
262 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex "x-lines" (G-LINES).
263 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex - List expiration (G-LINES): use same log level as when setting, and log
264 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex this event to the &SERVER channel, too.
265 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex - Explicitly forbid remote servers to modify "x-lines" (G-LINES) when the
266 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex "AllowRemoteOper" configuration option isn't set, even when the command
267 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex seems to originate from the remote server itself: this prevents GLINE's
268 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex to become set during server handshake in this case (what wouldn't be
269 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex possible during regular runtime when a remote IRC Op sends the command)
270 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex and what can't be undone by IRC Ops later on (because of the missing
271 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex "AllowRemoteOper" option) ...
272 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex - Make scripts and init-files in ./contrib executable.
273 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex - Fix building ngIRCd with OpenSSL 1.1. Thanks to Christoph Biedl
274 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex <ngircd.anoy@manchmal.in-ulm.de> for the patch!
275 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex - Fix code indentation warnings of gcc 6.2.
276 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex - Update config.guess (2016-04-02) and config.sub (2016-03-30) files.
277 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex - Fix warnings of the "shellcheck" linter in autogen.sh, contrib/ngindent
278 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex and contrib/platformtest.sh.
279 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex - Update Xcode project for latest Xcode version (8.0), and fix "duplicate
280 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex symbols" error messages when building (linking) the binary.
281 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex - Add "Documentation" variables to systemd configuration files.
282 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex - Make sure that SYSCONFDIR is always set, which can be handy when
283 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex using source code linters when ./configure hasn't been run already.
284 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex - Add the new "PAMServiceName" configuration option to specify the name
285 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex used as PAM service name. This setting allows to run multiple ngIRCd
286 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex instances with different PAM configurations for each instance.
287 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex Thanks to Christian Aistleitner <christian@quelltextlich.at> for the
288 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex patch, closes #226.
289 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex - Add an ".editorconfig" file to the project.
290 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex - Travis-CI: use "container-based infrastructure".
291 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex - Limit the number of message targets, and suppress duplicates: This
292 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex prevents an user from flooding the server using commands like this:
293 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex "PRIVMSG nick1,nick1,nick1,...".
294 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex Duplicate targets are suppressed silently (channels and clients).
295 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex In addition, the maximum number of targets per PRIVMSG, NOTICE, ...
296 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex command are limited to MAX_HNDL_TARGETS (25). If there are more, the
297 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex daemon sends the new 407 (ERR_TOOMANYTARGETS_MSG) numeric, containing
298 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex the first target that hasn't been handled any more. Closes #187.
299 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex - Test suite: Add new test for server-server logins.
300 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex - contrib/ngindent: Fix shebang line.
301 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex - Make contrib/platformtest.sh script more portable, and only show
302 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex "runs=Y" when the test suite really has been passed successfully.
303 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex - Code cleanup in the NJON handler and the function killing clients as
304 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex well as the function sending messages to a "mask" (cleaner code, more
305 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex fault tolerant, better code comments).
306 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex - Update and enhance documentation: README file, doc/Platforms.txt,
307 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex doc/Modes.txt, doc/Commands.txt, doc/PAM.txt.
308 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex - Fix NJOIN not propagating "half ops" status: ngIRCd tested for the wrong
309 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex prefix of "half ops" when processing NJOIN commands and therefore never
310 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex classified a remote user as "half op".
311 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex Thanks to wowaname for pointing this out on #ngircd!
313 f2cef85f 2015-11-16 alex ngIRCd 23 (2015-11-16)
315 6ed59a85 2015-11-15 alex - Explicitly cast time_t to long when printing it out: this prevents
316 6ed59a85 2015-11-15 alex wrong sized data types on platforms where time_t doesn't equal a
317 6ed59a85 2015-11-15 alex long any more, for example on OpenBSD (which would result in garbled
318 6ed59a85 2015-11-15 alex output on those platforms).
319 6ed59a85 2015-11-15 alex - contrib/Debian/changelog: Fix email address.
320 6ed59a85 2015-11-15 alex - Documentation: Spelling fixes; update doc/Platforms.txt.
322 1e84b264 2015-09-06 alex ngIRCd 23~rc1 (2015-09-06)
323 4acf95ab 2015-09-03 alex - Add ".clang_complete" file, which is used by the "linter-clang" package
324 4acf95ab 2015-09-03 alex of the Atom editor, for example.
325 4acf95ab 2015-09-03 alex - Make server-to-server protocol more robust: ngIRCd now catches more
326 4acf95ab 2015-09-03 alex errors on the server-to-server (S2S) protocol that could crash the
327 4acf95ab 2015-09-03 alex daemon before. This hasn't been a real problem because the IRC S2S
328 4acf95ab 2015-09-03 alex protocol is "trusted" by design, but the behavior is much better now.
329 4acf95ab 2015-09-03 alex Thanks to wowaname on #ngircd for pointing this out!
330 4acf95ab 2015-09-03 alex - Make platformtest.sh, autogen.sh, and ngircd.init more portable.
331 4acf95ab 2015-09-03 alex - Enables "reproducible builds" for ngIRCd: Use the optional BIRTHTIME
332 4acf95ab 2015-09-03 alex constant while building ngIRCd, which contains a time stamp for the
333 4acf95ab 2015-09-03 alex "Birth Date" information, in seconds since the epoch.
334 4acf95ab 2015-09-03 alex See <https://wiki.debian.org/ReproducibleBuilds>.
335 4acf95ab 2015-09-03 alex - Update "contrib/ngircd.service" file for systemd.
336 2c18e9a7 2015-08-07 alex - INSTALL: Add deprecation notice for "PredefChannelsOnly" variable.
337 2c18e9a7 2015-08-07 alex - Use "NOTICE *" before registration instead of "NOTICE AUTH". "AUTH" is
338 2c18e9a7 2015-08-07 alex a valid nickname so sending notices to it is probably not a good idea.
339 2c18e9a7 2015-08-07 alex Use "*" as the target instead as done with numerics when the nick is not
340 cb3a4321 2015-09-06 alex available. This mimics the behavior in Charybdis, IRCD-Hybrid, InspIRCd
341 2c18e9a7 2015-08-07 alex 2.2, Plexus 4, etc. Closes #217.
342 2c18e9a7 2015-08-07 alex The "NoticeAuth" configuration variable (ngircd.conf) has been renamed
343 2c18e9a7 2015-08-07 alex to "NoticeBeforeRegistration" accordingly, but the old name is still
344 2c18e9a7 2015-08-07 alex supported for compatibility reasons.
345 2c18e9a7 2015-08-07 alex - Implement new channel mode "N" (regular users can't change their nick
346 2c18e9a7 2015-08-07 alex name while on this channel). Closes #214.
347 2c18e9a7 2015-08-07 alex - README, AUTHORS: Update mailing list and issue tracker URLs.
348 2c18e9a7 2015-08-07 alex - Remove doc/GIT.txt (it is outdated), update doc/Contributing.txt:
349 2c18e9a7 2015-08-07 alex ngIRCd uses GitHub, and Git itself is quite common today. So don't
350 2c18e9a7 2015-08-07 alex include an own Git "mini HowTo" any longer.
351 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex - Specify session context for OpenSSL clients. This enables some OpenSSL
352 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex clients, including Pidgin and stunnel 5.06, to reuse a session.
353 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex Patch by Tom Ryder <tom@sanctum.geek.nz>, thanks! Closes #182.
354 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex - Keep track of who placed bans, invites, and excepts.
355 cb3a4321 2015-09-06 alex Idea and implementation by LucentW, Thanks! Closes #203.
356 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex - Make setgroups(3) function optional: For example, Interix is missing
357 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex this function, which prevented ngIRCd to build on this platform. When
358 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex setgroups(3) isn't available, a warning message is issued on startup.
359 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex - Implement numeric RPL_LISTSTART(321). lightIRC and other clients
360 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex expecting RPL_LISTSTART should now behave correctly.
361 cb3a4321 2015-09-06 alex Idea and implementation by LucentW, Thanks! Closes #207.
362 cb3a4321 2015-09-06 alex - Update ngircd.conf.5: "CloakUserToNick" hides user _and_ real name.
363 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex This closes #208.
364 e954b59d 2019-07-21 alex - Fix case insensitive pattern matching: Up to now, only the input
365 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex string became lowercased and was then compared to the pattern -- which
366 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex failed when the pattern itself wasn't all lowercase!
367 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex - Streamline the effect of "MorePrivacy" option: Update documentation
368 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex in ngircd.conf(5); don't hide channels for IRC Ops on LIST and don't
369 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex hide IP addresses/hostnames on WHOIS when "MorePrivacy" is in effect.
370 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex This closes #198.
371 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex - IRC operators now can kick anyone when "OperCanMode" is set.
372 cb3a4321 2015-09-06 alex Idea and implementation by LucentW, Thanks! Closes #202.
373 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex - Implement user mode "I": Hide channels on WHOIS: this mode prevents
374 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex ngIRCd from showing channels on WHOIS (IRC Operators can always see
375 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex the channel list).
376 cb3a4321 2015-09-06 alex Idea and implementation by LucentW, Thanks! Closes #197.
377 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex - INVITE command: Implement ERR_USERNOTONSERV(504) numeric and make sure
378 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex that the target user is on the same server when inviting other users
379 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex to local ("&") channels.
380 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex Idea by Cahata, thanks! Closes #183.
381 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex - INVITE command: Enforce 1 second penalty time, which prevents flooding
382 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex of the target client.
383 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex This closes #186. Reported by Cahata, thanks!
384 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex - MODE command: Always report channel creation time. Up to now when
385 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex receiving a MODE command, ngIRCd only reported the channel creation
386 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex time to clients that were members of the channel. This patch reports
387 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex the channel creation time to all clients, regardless if they are joined
388 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex to that channel or not. At least ircd-seven behaves like this.
389 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex This closes #188. Reported by Cahata, thanks!
390 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex - Update Xcode project for latest Xcode version (6.3).
392 03e65680 2015-04-06 alex ngIRCd 22.1 (2015-04-06)
394 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex - Update doc/Platforms.txt and doc/FAQ.txt.
395 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex - Fix spelling of RPL_WHOISBOT message text.
396 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex - Don't send nick name as default PART reason: No other IRC daemon seems
397 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex to do this (today?). Closes #185.
398 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex Reported by Cahata in #ngircd, thanks!
399 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex - Fix "WHO #<chan>" showing invisible users and hiding all visible, the
400 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex logic was reversed! This bug has been introduced by commit c74115f2,
401 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex "Simplify mode checking on channels and users within a channel", ngIRCd
402 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex releases 21, 21.1, and 22 are affected :-( Problem reported by Cahata
403 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex in #ngircd, Thanks!
404 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex - Fix typo in src/testsuite/README
405 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex - Auth PING: Fix our information text for manual sending of "PONG". Up to
406 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex now, ngIRCd doesn't send a valid IRC command at all, oops!
407 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex - Auth PING: Fix internal time stamp conversion and don't send a prefix in
408 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex our PING command. The prefix confuses WeeChat, at least, which doesn't
409 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex send an appropriate PONG in the case ...
410 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex Debugging and patch by "wowaname" on #ngircd, thanks!
411 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex - Fix syntax of ERR_LISTFULL_MSG(478) numeric. Pointed out by "wowaname"
412 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex in #ngircd, thanks!
413 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex - Enhance debug messages while sending CHANINFO commands.
414 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex - Reset "last try" timer when enabling a passive server. This results in
415 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex a new connection attempt as soon as possible.
416 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex - Change log message for "Can't resolve address" and for IP address
418 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex - doc/HowToRelease.txt: Add note about the bug tracker.
419 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex - Update "CipherList" to not enable SSLv3 by default. Idea, initial patch,
420 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex and testing by Christoph Biedl <ngircd.anoy@manchmal.in-ulm.de>.
421 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex - Change ngIRCd test suite not to use DNS lookups: Different operating
422 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex systems do behave quite differently when doing DNS lookups, for example
423 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex "127.0.0.1" sometimes resolves to "localhost" and sometimes to
424 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex "localhost.localdomain" (for example OpenBSD). And other OS resolve
425 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex "localhost" to the real host name (for example Cygwin). So not using
426 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex DNS at all makes the test site much more portable.
428 7b585380 2014-10-11 alex ngIRCd 22 (2014-10-11)
430 74262a40 2014-10-06 alex - Match all list patterns case-insensitive: this affects the invite-,
431 74262a40 2014-10-06 alex ban-, and except lists, as well as G-Lines an K-Lines.
432 74262a40 2014-10-06 alex Problem pointed out by "wowaname" on #ngircd, thanks!
434 7d7eb735 2014-09-29 alex ngIRCd 22~rc1 (2014-09-29)
435 fa7fac88 2014-09-22 alex - Sync "except lists" between servers: Up to now, ban, invite, and G-Line
436 fa7fac88 2014-09-22 alex lists have been synced between servers while linking -- but obviously
437 fa7fac88 2014-09-22 alex nobody noticed that except list have been missing ever since. Until now.
438 fa7fac88 2014-09-22 alex Thanks to "j4jackj", who reported this issue in #ngircd.
439 fa7fac88 2014-09-22 alex - Allow longer user names (up to 63 characters) for authentication.
440 fa7fac88 2014-09-22 alex - Correctly check that a server has a valid hostname and port, thanks to
441 fa7fac88 2014-09-22 alex David Binderman <dcb314@hotmail.com> who reported this bug.
442 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex - Fix the function which generates complete "IRC masks" from user input,
443 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex don't destroy the source buffer and use all provided parts (nick, user,
444 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex host name). This fixes GLINEs/KLINEs from not working in some situations.
445 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex - Increase MAX_SERVERS from 16 to 64: There are installations out there
446 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex that would like to configure more than 16 links per server, so increase
447 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex this limit. Best would be to get rid of MAX_SERVERS altogether and make
448 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex if fully dynamic, but start with this quick and dirty hack ...
449 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex - Debian: Don't adjust path names that are correct by default and correctly
450 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex set and use "docdir".
451 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex - Update config.guess and config.sub to recent versions.
452 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex - Test suite/platformtest.sh: Detect when tests have been skipped.
453 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex - doc/Bopm.txt: Update "connregex" and "kline" for current ngIRCd.
454 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex - Allow "DefaultUserModes" to set all possible modes, including modes only
455 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex settable by IRC Operators.
456 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex - Spoofed prefixes: Really kill connection on non-server links.
457 967deeba 2014-10-07 alex - Implement user mode "F": "relaxed flood protection". Clients with mode
458 967deeba 2014-10-07 alex "F" set are allowed to rapidly send data to the daemon. This mode is only
459 967deeba 2014-10-07 alex settable by IRC Operators and can cause problems in the network -- so be
460 967deeba 2014-10-07 alex careful and only set it on "trusted" clients!
461 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex User mode "F" is used by Bahamut for this purpose, for example.
462 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex - Handle "throttling" in a single function: ngIRCd implements "command
463 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex throttling" and "bps throttling" (bytes per second). The states are
464 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex detected in different functions, Conn_Handler() and Read_Request(), but
465 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex handle the actual "throttling" in a common function: this enables us to
466 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex guarantee consistent behavior and to disable throttling for special
467 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex connections in only one place
468 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex - Use server password when PAM is compiled in but disabled.
469 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex - Streamline punctuation of log messages.
470 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex - Return ISUPPORT(005) numerics on "VERSION". This is how ircd-seven,
471 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex Charybdis, Hybrid, and InspIRCd behave, for example.
472 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex - configure: Only link "contrib/Debian" if it exists, which isn't the case
473 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex on "VPATH builds", for example.
474 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex - Show the account name in WHOIS. This uses the same numeric as Charybdis
475 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex and ircu families: WHOISLOGGEDIN(330).
476 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex - Pattern matching: Remove "range matching" in our pattern matching code
477 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex using the "[...]" syntax, because [ and ] are valid characters in nick
478 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex names and one has to quote them currently using the "\" character, which
479 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex is quite unexpected for users.
480 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex - platformtest.sh: New option "-x", don't regenerate build system and
481 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex allow using separate source and build trees.
482 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex - Test suite: explicitly enable glibc memory checking.
483 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex - Make "MODE -k" handling more robust and compatible, send "fake '*' key"
484 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex in all replies.
485 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex - Update configure.ng: ngIRCd requires GNU autoconf 2.61 for generating its
486 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex build system, so update the build system accordingly and implement all
487 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex changes that autoupdate(1) suggests: Update AC_PREREQ and AC_INIT, use
488 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex AC_LINK_IFELSE, AC_RUN_IFELSE, and AC_COMPILE_IFELSE, and remove
489 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex AC_TYPE_SIGNAL (we don't use RETSIGTYPE).
490 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex - portabtest: Actually test the functions snprintf(), strlcpy(), strlcat(),
491 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex and vsnprintf() for correctness, not only existence (which was quite
492 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex useless, because if they weren't available, the program could not have
493 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex been linked at all ...).
494 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex - Implement new configuration option "Network": it is used to set the
495 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex (completely optional) "network name", to which this instance of the
496 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex daemon belongs. When set, this name is used in the ISUPPORT(005) numeric
497 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex which is sent to all clients connecting to the server after logging in.
498 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex - Update doc/Platforms.txt.
499 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex - Various code cleanups, remove unused code, streamline error handling.
500 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex Remove all imp.h and exp.h header files, support non-standard vsnprintf()
501 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex return codes, and fix some K&R C portability issues. Streamline
502 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex DEBUG_ARRAY, DEBUG_BUFFER, DEBUG_IO, DEBUG_ZIP definitions.
503 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex - Increase penalty time to 10 seconds when handling OPER commands with an
504 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex invalid password.
506 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex ngIRCd 21.1 (2014-03-25)
508 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex - Don't ignore but use the server password when PAM is compiled in but
509 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex disabled. Thanks to Roy Sindre Norangshol <roy.sindre@norangshol.no>!
510 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex - doc/Platforms.txt: Update from master branch.
511 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex - Really kill connections that send "spoofed prefixes" on non-server links.
512 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex This fixes commit 6cbe1308 which only killed the connection when the
513 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex spoofed prefix itself belonged to a non-server client.
514 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex - CHARCONV command: Fix handling conversion errors, don't overwrite already
515 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex converted text!
516 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex - doc/Services.txt: Update information for Anope 2.x.
517 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex - Correctly use cloaked IRC masks on "INVITE nickname": The cloaked IRC mask
518 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex of a user is his visible mask, so the daemon has to use it for generating
519 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex the "one time" entries for the invite list of the given channel, and not
520 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex the "real" mask which will never match while the target client is "+x", and
521 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex even worse, will disclose the real mask on "MODE #channel +I" commands :-/
522 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex Bug reported by Cahata on #ngircd, thanks!
523 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex - configure: Only link "contrib/Debian" if it exists. This isn't the case on
524 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex "VPATH builds", for example.
525 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex - Use $(MKDIR_P) instead of $(mkinstalldirs) in Makefile's and test for
526 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex "mkdir -p" using AC_PROG_MKDIR_P in "configure".
527 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex - Fix configure script and "make check" for TCP Wrappers (problems spotted on
528 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex OpenBSD): add missing #include's and static variables, and add libwrap at
529 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex the end of the configure run because if libwrap becomes added earlier,
530 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex other tests may fail.
531 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex - configure: add support for the LDFLAGS_END and LIBS_END variables to add
532 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex linker flags and libraries at the end of the configure run (CFLAGS_END has
533 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex been implemented already).
534 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex - platformtest.sh and Makefile.am: Don't use "test -e", it isn't portable.
535 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex - Update Copyright notices for 2014 :-)
536 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex - Fix permanent {G|K}LINES (with a timeout of 0 seconds).
537 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex - WEBIRC: Don't set the hostname received by the WEBIRC command when DNS
538 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex lookups are disabled, but use the IP address instead.
539 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex Reported by Toni Spets <toni.spets@iki.fi>, thanks!
540 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex - Check for working getaddrinfo() function: At least AIX 4.3.3 and 5.1 have a
541 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex broken implementation of getaddrinfo() which doesn't handle "0" as numeric
542 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex service correctly. This patch adds a configure check for this case and
543 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex changes all calling functions to only use getaddrinfo() if it "works".
544 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex See <http://www.stacken.kth.se/lists/heimdal-discuss/2004-05/msg00059.html>
545 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex - Only use the unsetenv() function when it is available (AIX 4.3 doesn't
546 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex support it, for example).
547 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex - Make sure that the source code is still compatible with the "ansi2knr" tool
548 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex and builds using non-ANSI K&R C compilers. Tested with Apple C on A/UX.
549 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex - Fix building ngIRCd without support for ZLIB compression. Reported by
550 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex "der_baer" on #ngircd, thanks!
552 94148c37 2013-10-30 alex ngIRCd 21 (2013-10-30)
554 94148c37 2013-10-30 alex - ./contrib/Debian/ngircd.init: Make sure no stale PID file is left over
555 94148c37 2013-10-30 alex when (re-)starting ngIRCd.
556 94148c37 2013-10-30 alex - Change ./contrib/platformtest.sh and update ./doc/Platforms.txt to
557 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex allow user names up to 8 characters.
558 94148c37 2013-10-30 alex - Call arc4random_stir() in forked subprocesses, when available. This
559 94148c37 2013-10-30 alex is required by FreeBSD <10 and current NetBSD at least to correctly
560 94148c37 2013-10-30 alex initialize the "arc4" random number generator on these platforms.
561 94148c37 2013-10-30 alex - Update our own Debian package configuration and fix the default path
562 94148c37 2013-10-30 alex of the "HelpFile" of the "full" package variants.
564 94148c37 2013-10-30 alex ngIRCd 21~rc2 (2013-10-20)
565 788b3002 2013-10-20 alex - Report the correct configuration file name on configuration errors,
566 788b3002 2013-10-20 alex support longer configuration lines, and warn when lines are truncated.
567 788b3002 2013-10-20 alex - Use arc4random() function to generate "random" numbers, when available.
568 788b3002 2013-10-20 alex - platformtest.sh: Detect clang compiler, and clean up GIT source tree
569 788b3002 2013-10-20 alex before building (when possible).
570 788b3002 2013-10-20 alex - Update (date of) manual pages.
571 788b3002 2013-10-20 alex - Update "Upgrade Information" in INSTALL file, add more systems to
572 788b3002 2013-10-20 alex doc/Platforms.txt, and fix spelling in NEWS and ChangeLog files =:)
573 788b3002 2013-10-20 alex - Fix remaining compiler warnings on OpenBSD.
575 788b3002 2013-10-20 alex ngIRCd 21~rc1 (2013-10-05)
576 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex - Actually KILL clients on GLINE/KLINE. (Closes bug #156)
577 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex - Adjust log messages for invalid and spoofed prefixes, which cleans up
578 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex logging of commands related to already KILL'ed clients. And don't
579 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex forward KILL commands for (already) unknown clients any more to prevent
580 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex unnecessary duplicates.
581 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex - Add support to show all user links using the "STATS L" (uppercase)
582 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex command (restricted to IRC Operators).
583 56da86b4 2013-10-07 alex - Fixed blocking of server reconnects in some error configurations.
584 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex - Don't ignore SSL-related errors during startup any more: abort startup
585 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex when SSL is requested by the configuration but can't be initialized and
586 56da86b4 2013-10-07 alex don't continue only listening on plain text communication ports.
587 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex (Closes bug #163)
588 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex - Implement configurable SSL cipher list selection for GnuTLS and OpenSSL
589 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex using the new configuration option "CipherList". In addition, this
590 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex changes the defaults to more secure values: "HIGH:!aNULL:@STRENGTH" for
591 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex OpenSSL, and "SECURE128" for GnuTLS.
592 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex - Fix "TRACE": Correctly return ERR_NEEDMOREPARAMS(461) (which basically
593 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex is "syntax error") when there are too many parameters.
594 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex - Clean up lots of permission and parameter checks in functions handling
595 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex IRC commands; and more consistently add penalty times on errors.
596 56da86b4 2013-10-07 alex - Fix error numeric of WHOIS when no nick name has been provided:
597 56da86b4 2013-10-07 alex as per RFC it should be ERR_NONICKNAMEGIVEN(431).
598 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex - Only log "IDENT ... no result" messages when an IDENT looked took place
599 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex and didn't return any data, not when IDENT has been disabled.
600 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex - Show connection flag "s" (SSL) in RPL_TRACE{LINK|SERVER} messages: now
601 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex you can check if a server-to-server link is SSL-encrypted or not using
602 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex the IRC "TRACE" command.
603 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex - Correctly discard supplementary groups on server startup.
604 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex - Save client IP address text for "WebIRC" users and correctly display
605 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex it on WHOIS, for example. (Closes bug #159)
606 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex - Implement the new configuration option "DefaultUserModes" which lists
607 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex user modes that become automatically set on new local clients right
608 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex after login. Please note that only modes can be set that the client
609 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex could set on itself, so you can't set "a" (away) or "o" (IRC Op),
610 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex for example! User modes "i" (invisible) or "x" (cloaked) etc. are
611 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex "interesting", though. (Closes bug #160)
612 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex - Add support for the new METADATA "account" property, which allows
613 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex services to automatically identify users after netsplits and across
614 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex service restarts.
615 212d9914 2013-08-20 alex - Enforce "penalty times" on error conditions more consistently and in
616 212d9914 2013-08-20 alex more places. Now most error codes sent back from the IRC server to the
617 212d9914 2013-08-20 alex client should result in a 2 second "penalty".
618 bd0de15d 2013-08-06 alex - Implement a new configuration option "AllowedChannelTypes" that lists
619 bd0de15d 2013-08-06 alex all allowed channel types (channel prefixes) for newly created channels
620 bd0de15d 2013-08-06 alex on the local server. By default, all supported channel types are allowed.
621 bd0de15d 2013-08-06 alex If set to the empty string, local clients can't create new channels at
622 bd0de15d 2013-08-06 alex all, which equals the old "PredefChannelsOnly = yes" setting.
623 bd0de15d 2013-08-06 alex This change deprecates the "PredefChannelsOnly" variable, too, but it is
624 1b349b05 2013-10-07 alex still supported and translated to the appropriate "AllowedChannelTypes"
625 bd0de15d 2013-08-06 alex setting. When the old "PredefChannelsOnly" variable is processed, a
626 bd0de15d 2013-08-06 alex warning message is logged. (Closes bug #152)
627 bd0de15d 2013-08-06 alex - Add support for "client certificate fingerprinting". When a client
628 bd0de15d 2013-08-06 alex passes an SSL certificate to the server, the "fingerprint" will be
629 bd0de15d 2013-08-06 alex forwarded in the network which enables IRC services to identify the
630 bd0de15d 2013-08-06 alex user using this certificate and not using passwords.
631 bd0de15d 2013-08-06 alex - IRC Operator names, as defined in ngircd.conf, are logged now when
632 bd0de15d 2013-08-06 alex handling successful OPER commands.
633 bd0de15d 2013-08-06 alex - Some error conditions while handling IRC commands, like "permission
634 bd0de15d 2013-08-06 alex denied" or "need more parameters", result in more penalty times.
635 11240376 2013-06-04 alex - The numeric replies of some commands became split too early which
636 11240376 2013-06-04 alex resulted in more numeric reply lines than necessary.
637 11240376 2013-06-04 alex - Implement a new configuration option "IncludeDir" in the "[Options]"
638 11240376 2013-06-04 alex section that can be used to specify a directory which can contain
639 11240376 2013-06-04 alex further configuration files and configuration file snippets matching
640 11240376 2013-06-04 alex the pattern "*.conf". These files are read in after the main server
641 11240376 2013-06-04 alex configuration file ("ngircd.conf" by default) has been read in and
642 11240376 2013-06-04 alex parsed. The default is "$SYSCONFDIR/ngircd.conf.d", so that it is
643 11240376 2013-06-04 alex possible to adjust the configuration only by placing additional files
644 11240376 2013-06-04 alex into this directory. (Closes bug #157)
645 11240376 2013-06-04 alex - Fix use-after-free in the Lists_CheckReason() function, which is used
646 11240376 2013-06-04 alex to check if a client is a member of a particular ban/invite/... list.
647 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex - Xcode: fix detection of host OS, vendor, and CPU type, and update
648 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex project settings for Xcode 5.
649 11240376 2013-06-04 alex - OS X PackageMaker: use relative path names in project files and package
650 11240376 2013-06-04 alex with correct file permissions (requires root privileges on "make").
651 11240376 2013-06-04 alex - Add Travis-CI configuration file (".travis.yml") to project.
652 56da86b4 2013-10-07 alex - Look for possible cloaked Masks in Lists. Users with +x user mode can
653 11240376 2013-06-04 alex be banned with their cloaked hostname now.
654 11240376 2013-06-04 alex - Don't read SSL client data before DNS resolver is finished which could
655 11240376 2013-06-04 alex have resulted in discarding the resolved client hostname and IDENT
656 11240376 2013-06-04 alex reply afterwards, because in some situations (timing dependent) the
657 11240376 2013-06-04 alex NICK and USER commands could have already been read in from the client,
658 11240376 2013-06-04 alex stored in the buffer, and been processed.
659 11240376 2013-06-04 alex Thanks to Julian Brost for reporting the issue and testing, and to
660 11240376 2013-06-04 alex Federico G. Schwindt <fgsch@lodoss.net> for helping to debug it!
661 11240376 2013-06-04 alex - Increase password length limit to 64 characters. (Closes bug #154)
662 11240376 2013-06-04 alex - doc/Services.txt: Update Anope status and URL.
663 11240376 2013-06-04 alex - Clean up Xcode project file, remove outdated files, add missing ones.
664 11240376 2013-06-04 alex - Update Doxygen configuration file.
665 11240376 2013-06-04 alex - configure: search for iconv_open as well as libiconv_open, because
666 11240376 2013-06-04 alex on some installations iconv_open() is actually libiconv_open().
667 11240376 2013-06-04 alex iconv_open() is the glibc version while libiconv_open() is the
668 11240376 2013-06-04 alex libiconv version, now both variants are supported. (Closes bug #151)
669 11240376 2013-06-04 alex - ngIRCd now accepts user names including "@" characters, saves the
670 11240376 2013-06-04 alex unmodified name for authentication but stores only the part in front
671 11240376 2013-06-04 alex of the "@" character as "IRC user name". And the latter is how
672 11240376 2013-06-04 alex ircd2.11, Bahamut, and irc-seven behave as well. (Closes bug #155)
673 11240376 2013-06-04 alex - Lots of IRC "information functions" like ADMIN, INFO, ... now accept
674 11240376 2013-06-04 alex server masks and names of connected users (in addition to server names)
675 11240376 2013-06-04 alex for specifying the target server of the command. (Closes bug #153)
676 11240376 2013-06-04 alex - Implement a new configuration option "IdleTimeout" in the "[Limits]"
677 11240376 2013-06-04 alex section of the configuration file which can be used to set a timeout
678 11240376 2013-06-04 alex in seconds after which the whole daemon will shutdown when no more
679 11240376 2013-06-04 alex connections are left active after handling at least one client.
680 11240376 2013-06-04 alex The default is 0, "never".
681 11240376 2013-06-04 alex This can be useful for testing or when ngIRCd is started using "socket
682 11240376 2013-06-04 alex activation" with systemd(8), for example.
683 11240376 2013-06-04 alex - Implement support for systemd(8) "socket activation".
684 11240376 2013-06-04 alex - contrib/README: add description for more files.
685 11240376 2013-06-04 alex - Enable WHOIS to display information about IRC Services using the new
686 11240376 2013-06-04 alex numeric 310(RPL_WHOISSERVICE) This numeric is used for this purpose by
687 11240376 2013-06-04 alex InspIRCd, for example -- but as usual, other numerics are in use, too,
688 11240376 2013-06-04 alex like 613 in UltimateIRCd ...
689 11240376 2013-06-04 alex Please note that neither the Operator (+o) not the "bot status" (+B)
690 1b349b05 2013-10-07 alex of an IRC service is displayed in the output.
691 11240376 2013-06-04 alex - Exit message: use singular & plural :-)
692 bd0de15d 2013-08-06 alex - autogen.sh: Check for autoconf/automake wrapper scripts
693 212d9914 2013-08-20 alex - Add missing punctuation marks in log messages, adjust some severity
694 212d9914 2013-08-20 alex levels, and make SSL-related messages more readable.
695 11240376 2013-06-04 alex - AUTHORS file: Update list of contributors.
696 11240376 2013-06-04 alex - Update systemd(8) example configuration files in ./contrib/ directory:
697 11240376 2013-06-04 alex the "ngircd.service" file now uses the "forking" service type which
698 11240376 2013-06-04 alex enhances the log messages shown by "systemctl status ngircd.service",
699 11240376 2013-06-04 alex and the new "ngircd.socket" file configures a systemd socket that
700 11240376 2013-06-04 alex configures a socket for ngIRCd and launches the daemon on demand.
701 11240376 2013-06-04 alex - Enhance help system and the HELP command: now a "help text file" can be
702 11240376 2013-06-04 alex set using the new configuration option "HelpFile" ("global" section),
703 11240376 2013-06-04 alex which is read in and parsed on server startup and configuration reload,
704 11240376 2013-06-04 alex and then is used to output individual help texts to specific topics.
705 11240376 2013-06-04 alex Please see the file ./doc/Commands.txt for details.
707 6dc5471a 2013-08-23 alex ngIRCd 20.3 (2013-08-23)
709 6dc5471a 2013-08-23 alex - Security: Fix a denial of service bug (server crash) which could happen
710 6dc5471a 2013-08-23 alex when the configuration option "NoticeAuth" is enabled (which is NOT the
711 6dc5471a 2013-08-23 alex default) and ngIRCd failed to send the "notice auth" messages to new
712 6dc5471a 2013-08-23 alex clients connecting to the server (CVE-2013-5580).
714 25b19e08 2013-02-15 alex ngIRCd 20.2 (2013-02-15)
716 25b19e08 2013-02-15 alex - Security: Fix a denial of service bug in the function handling KICK
717 e954b59d 2019-07-21 alex commands that could be used by arbitrary users to crash the daemon
718 11240376 2013-06-04 alex (CVE-2013-1747).
719 25b19e08 2013-02-15 alex - WHO command: Use the currently "displayed hostname" (which can be cloaked!)
720 25b19e08 2013-02-15 alex for hostname matching, not the real one. In other words: don't display all
721 25b19e08 2013-02-15 alex the cloaked users on a specific real hostname!
722 25b19e08 2013-02-15 alex - configure: The header file "netinet/in_systm.h" already is optional in
723 25b19e08 2013-02-15 alex ngIRCd, so don't require it in the configure script. Now ngIRCd can be
724 25b19e08 2013-02-15 alex built on Minix 3 again :-)
725 25b19e08 2013-02-15 alex - Return better "Connection not registered as server link" errors: Now ngIRCd
726 25b19e08 2013-02-15 alex returns a more specific error message for numeric ERR_NOTREGISTERED(451)
727 25b19e08 2013-02-15 alex when a regular user tries to use a command that isn't allowed for users but
728 25b19e08 2013-02-15 alex for servers.
729 25b19e08 2013-02-15 alex - Don't report ERR_NEEDMOREPARAMS(461) when a MDOE command with more modes
730 25b19e08 2013-02-15 alex than nicknames is handled, as well as for channel limit and key changes
731 25b19e08 2013-02-15 alex without specifying the limit or key parameters.
732 25b19e08 2013-02-15 alex This is how a lot (all?) other IRC servers behave, including ircd2.11,
733 25b19e08 2013-02-15 alex InspIRCd, and ircd-seven. And because of clients (tested with Textual and
734 25b19e08 2013-02-15 alex mIRC) sending bogus MODE commands like "MODE -ooo nick", end-users got the
735 25b19e08 2013-02-15 alex expected result as well as correct but misleading error messages ...
736 25b19e08 2013-02-15 alex - Correctly detect when SSL subsystem must be initialized and take
737 25b19e08 2013-02-15 alex outgoing connections (server links!) into account, too.
738 25b19e08 2013-02-15 alex - autogen.sh: Enforce serial test harness on GNU automake >=1.13. The
739 25b19e08 2013-02-15 alex new parallel test harness which is enabled by default starting with
740 25b19e08 2013-02-15 alex automake 1.13 isn't compatible with our test suite.
741 11240376 2013-06-04 alex And don't use "egrep -o", instead use "sed", because it isn't portable
742 25b19e08 2013-02-15 alex and not available on OpenBSD, for example.
744 21493731 2013-01-02 alex ngIRCd 20.1 (2013-01-02)
746 21493731 2013-01-02 alex - Allow ERROR command on server and service links only, ignore them and
747 21493731 2013-01-02 alex add a penalty time on all other link types.
748 21493731 2013-01-02 alex - Enforced mode setting by IRC Operators: Only check the channel user
749 21493731 2013-01-02 alex modes of the initiator if he is joined to the channel and not an IRC
750 21493731 2013-01-02 alex operator enforcing modes (which requires the configuration option
751 21493731 2013-01-02 alex "OperCanUseMode" to be enabled), because trying to check channel user
752 21493731 2013-01-02 alex modes of a non-member results in an assertion when running with debug
753 21493731 2013-01-02 alex code or could crash the daemon otherwise. This closes bug #147, thanks
754 21493731 2013-01-02 alex to James Kirwill <james.kirwill@bk.ru> for tracking this down!
755 21493731 2013-01-02 alex - Fix build system to cope with spaces in path names.
756 21493731 2013-01-02 alex - Code cleanups, mostly to fix build warnings on Cygwin.
758 25d35dd6 2012-12-17 alex ngIRCd 20 (2012-12-17)
760 a445abc1 2012-12-12 alex - Allow user names ("INDENT") up to 20 characters when ngIRCd has not
761 a445abc1 2012-12-12 alex been configured for "strict RFC mode". This is useful if you are using
762 11240376 2013-06-04 alex external (PAM) authentication mechanisms that require longer user names.
763 a445abc1 2012-12-12 alex Patch suggested by Brett Smith <brett@w3.org>, see
764 a445abc1 2012-12-12 alex <http://arthur.barton.de/pipermail/ngircd-ml/2012-October/000579.html>.
766 c6ae3537 2012-12-02 alex ngIRCd 20~rc2 (2012-12-02)
767 c6ae3537 2012-12-02 alex - Rework cloaked hostname handling and implement the "METADATA cloakhost"
768 c6ae3537 2012-12-02 alex subcommand: Now ngIRCd uses two fields internally, one to store the
769 c6ae3537 2012-12-02 alex "real" hostname and one to save the "cloaked" hostname. This allows
770 c6ae3537 2012-12-02 alex "foreign servers" (aka "IRC services") to alter the real and cloaked
771 c6ae3537 2012-12-02 alex hostnames of clients without problems, even when the user itself issues
772 c6ae3537 2012-12-02 alex additional "MODE +x" and "MODE -x" commands.
773 c6ae3537 2012-12-02 alex - RPL_UMODEIS: send correct target name, even on server links.
774 c6ae3537 2012-12-02 alex - Update platformtest.sh to follow autoconf changes and only generate
775 c6ae3537 2012-12-02 alex the "configure" script when it is missing.
776 c6ae3537 2012-12-02 alex - Fix the test suite to correctly execute test scripts even when stdout
777 c6ae3537 2012-12-02 alex is redirected.
778 c6ae3537 2012-12-02 alex - Fix some compiler warnings on NetBSD and OpenBSD.
780 0a26079a 2012-11-11 alex ngIRCd 20~rc1 (2012-11-11)
781 4185c4a4 2012-11-10 alex - Update doc/Services.txt: describe the upcoming version of Anope 1.9.8,
782 4185c4a4 2012-11-10 alex then including a protocol module for ngIRCd. And remove our own patches
783 4185c4a4 2012-11-10 alex in ./contrib/Anope because they aren't supported any more ...
784 4185c4a4 2012-11-10 alex - Implement new "METADATA" command which can be used by remote servers
785 4185c4a4 2012-11-10 alex and IRC services to update client metadata like the client info text
786 4185c4a4 2012-11-10 alex ("real name"), user name, and hostname, and use this command to
787 4185c4a4 2012-11-10 alex configure an cloaked hostname (user mode "+x") on remote servers:
788 4185c4a4 2012-11-10 alex This prevents "double cloaking" of hostnames and even cloaked
789 4185c4a4 2012-11-10 alex hostnames are in sync on all servers supporting "METADATA" now.
790 4185c4a4 2012-11-10 alex - Fix error message when trying to join non-predefined channels and the
791 4185c4a4 2012-11-10 alex "PredefChannelsOnly" configuration option is set.
792 4185c4a4 2012-11-10 alex - Implement new IRC "SVSNICK" command to allow remote servers (and IRC
793 4185c4a4 2012-11-10 alex services) to change nicknames of already registered users. The SVSNICK
794 4185c4a4 2012-11-10 alex command itself doesn't change the nickname, but it becomes forwarded
795 4185c4a4 2012-11-10 alex to the server to which the user is connected to. And then this server
796 4185c4a4 2012-11-10 alex initiates the real nickname changing using regular NICK commands.
797 4185c4a4 2012-11-10 alex This allows to run mixed networks with old servers not supporting the
798 4185c4a4 2012-11-10 alex SVSNICK command, because SVSNICK commands for nicknames on such servers
799 4185c4a4 2012-11-10 alex are silently ignored and don't cause a desynchronization of the network.
800 4185c4a4 2012-11-10 alex - Make server reconnect time a little bit more random, so that two
801 4185c4a4 2012-11-10 alex servers trying to connect to each other asynchronously don't try this
802 4185c4a4 2012-11-10 alex in exactly the same time periods and kick each other off ...
803 4185c4a4 2012-11-10 alex - Don't accept connections for servers already being linked: there was a
804 4185c4a4 2012-11-10 alex time frame that could result in one connection overwriting the other,
805 4185c4a4 2012-11-10 alex e. g. the incoming connection overwriting the status of the outgoing
806 4185c4a4 2012-11-10 alex one. And this could lead to all kind of weirdness (even crashes!) later
807 4185c4a4 2012-11-10 alex on: now such incoming connections are dropped.
808 8ff153d7 2012-10-28 alex - New configuration option "MaxListSize" to configure the maximum number
809 8ff153d7 2012-10-28 alex of channels returned by a LIST command. The default is 100, as before.
810 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Implement user mode "b", "block messages": when a user has set mode "b",
811 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex all private messages and notices to this user are blocked if they don't
812 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex originate from a registered user, an IRC Op, server or service. The
813 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex originator gets an error numeric sent back in this case,
814 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex ERR_NONONREG_MSG (486), which is used by UnrealIRCd, too. (Closes #144)
815 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - WHOIS: Not only show RPL_WHOISHOST_MSG to local IRC operators, but show
816 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex it to all IRC operators in the network. And don't show it to anybody if
817 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex the "more privacy" configuration option is enabled. (Closes #134)
818 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Test suite: make expect scripts more verbose displaying dots for each
819 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex reply of the server that it is waiting for.
820 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - WHOIS: Implement numeric RPL_WHOISMODES_MSG (379) and show user modes in
821 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex the reply of the WHOIS command for the user himself or, if MorePrivacy
822 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex isn't set, for request initiated by an IRC operator. (Closes #129)
823 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Implement channel mode "V" (invite disallow): If the new channel mode
824 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex "V" is set, the INVITE command becomes invalid and all clients get the
825 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex new ERR_NOINVITE_MSG (518) reply. (Closes #143)
826 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - KICK-protect IRC services.
827 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Implement channel mode "Q" and user mode "q": Both modes protect users
828 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex from channel kicks: only IRC operators and servers can kick users having
829 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex mode "q" or in channels with mode "Q". (Closes #141)
830 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Debian: require "telnet" or "telnet-ssl" for building and enable
831 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex CHARCONV in ngircd-full[-dbg] variants.
832 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Send RPL_REHASHING (382) numeric if a REHASH command was accepted.
833 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Fix spelling and variable names in some log messages.
834 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Allow users to "cloak" their hostname only when the configuration
835 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex variable "CloakHostModeX" (introduced in 19.2) is set. Otherwise, only
836 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex IRC operators, other servers, and services are allowed to set the user
837 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex mode "+x": this prevents regular users from changing their hostmask to
838 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex the name of the IRC server itself, which confused quite a few people ;-)
839 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex (Closes #133)
840 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - New configuration option "OperChanPAutoOp": If disabled, IRC operators
841 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex don't become channel operators in persistent channels when joining.
842 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex Enabled by default, which has been the behavior of ngIRCd up to this
843 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex patch. (Closes #135)
844 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Allow IRC operators to see secret (+s) channels in LIST command as long
845 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex as the "MorePrivacy" configuration option isn't enabled in the
846 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex configuration file. (Closes #136)
847 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Enhance build system: Support new (>=1.12) and old (<=1.11) GNU automake
848 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex versions, update checks for required and optional features, enable
849 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex colored test output of automake (if available), rename configure.in to
850 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex more modern configure.ac, include .mailmap and all build-system files in
851 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex distribution archives and no longer require a GIT tree to detect the
852 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex correct version string.
853 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Update documentation: add doc/Contributing.txt and include version
854 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex numbers in doc/Modes.txt.
855 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Free all listen ports on initialization: now listen ports can be
856 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex reconfigured on runtime using a configuration reload.
857 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Initialize SSL when needed only, and disable SSL on errors.
858 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Implement new (optional) IRC+ "CHARCONV" command to set a client
859 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex character set that the server translates all messages to/from UTF-8.
860 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex This feature requires the "libiconv" library and must be enabled using
861 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex the new "--with-iconv" option of the ./configure script. See
862 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex doc/Protocol.txt for details. (Closes #109)
863 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Allow limited punctuation in usernames, for better PAM integration.
864 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Correctly re-initialize signal handlers on RESTART commands.
865 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Show a warning on startup if the configuration file is not a full path:
866 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex ngIRCd is a long-running process and changes its working directory to
867 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex "/" to not block mounted filesystems and the like when running as daemon
868 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex ("not in the foreground"); therefore the path to the configuration file
869 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex must be relative to "/" (or the chroot() directory), which basically is
870 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex "not relative", to ensure that "kill -HUP" and the "REHASH" command work
871 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex as expected later on. (Closes #127)
872 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Make the "&SERVER" channel definable in a [Channel] configuration block,
873 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex which enables server operators to overwrite the built-in topic and
874 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex channel modes. (Closes #131)
875 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Don't limit list size of "WHO #channel" commands, because it makes no
876 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex sense to not return all the users in that channel, so I removed the
877 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex check. But if there are more than MAX_RPL_WHO(25) replies, the client
878 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex requesting the list will be "penalized" one second more, then 2 in
879 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex total. (Closes #125)
880 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Make ngIRCd buildable using the kqueue() IO interface on FreeBSD 4.x.
881 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Fix the "NoticeAuth" configuration option when using SSL connections and
882 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex enhance the message to show the hostname and IDENT reply of the client.
883 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Introduce numeric RPL_HOSTHIDDEN_MSG (396): This numeric is sent to the
884 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex client each time it changes its displayed hostname using "MODE +/-x",
885 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex and if "CloakHost" is set right after the MOTD has been sent.
886 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Fix USERHOST not displaying the correctly cloaked hostname.
887 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Implement user mode "B" ("Bot flag"): it is settable and unsettable by
888 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex every (non-restricted) client. This is how Unreal and InspIRCd do
889 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex behave, and so do we :-)
890 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Dynamically allocate memory for connection passwords: This a) saves
891 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex memory for clients not using passwords at all and b) allows for
892 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex "arbitrarily" long passwords.
893 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Implement channel mode "M": Only the server, identified users and IRC
894 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex operators are able to talk in such a channel.
895 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Block nicknames that are reserved for services and are defined using the
896 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex configuration variable "ServiceMask" in "Server" blocks; And this
897 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex variable now can handle more than one mask separated by commas.
898 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Now "make uninstall" removes the installed "ngircd.conf" file, if it is
899 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex still equal to our "sample-ngircd.conf" file and therefore hasn't been
900 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex modified by the user. If it has been modified, it isn't removed and a
901 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex notice is displayed to the user. And "make install" now displays a
902 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex message when no ngircd.conf file exists and the "sample-ngircd.conf"
903 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex file will be installed as a starting point.
904 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Add contrib/ngircd.service, a systemd service file for ngircd.
905 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Implemented XOP channel user modes: "Half Op" ("+h", prefix "%") can set
906 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex the channel modes +imntvIbek and kick all +v and normal users; "Admin"
907 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex ("+a", prefix "&") can set channel modes +imntvIbekoRsz and kick all +o,
908 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex +h, +v and normal users; and "Owner" ("+q", prefix "~") can set channel
909 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex modes +imntvIbekoRsz and kick all +a, +o, +h, +v and normal users.
910 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Implement hashed cloaked hostnames for both the "CloakHost" and
911 b53b12aa 2012-08-03 alex "CloakHostModeX" configuration options: now the admin can use the new
912 b53b12aa 2012-08-03 alex '%x' placeholder to insert a hashed version of the clients hostname,
913 b53b12aa 2012-08-03 alex and the new configuration option "CloakHostSalt" defines the salt for
914 b53b12aa 2012-08-03 alex the hash function. When "CloakHostSalt" is not set (the default), a
915 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex random salt will be generated after each server restart. (Closes #133)
917 2e931298 2013-10-31 alex ngIRCd 19.2 (2012-06-19)
919 b9e6cb3e 2012-06-19 alex - doc/Capabilities.txt: document "multi-prefix" capability
921 d7eb343e 2012-06-13 alex ngIRCd 19.2~rc1 (2012-06-13)
922 d7eb343e 2012-06-13 alex - New configuration option "CloakHostModeX" to configure the hostname
923 d7eb343e 2012-06-13 alex that gets used for IRC clients which have user mode "+x" enabled.
924 d7eb343e 2012-06-13 alex Up to now, the name of the IRC server itself has been used for this,
925 d7eb343e 2012-06-13 alex which still is the default when "CloakHostModeX" isn't set.
926 7bce6780 2012-06-09 alex - Correctly handle asynchronously re-established server links: a race
927 7bce6780 2012-06-09 alex condition could let the daemon loose track of an already re-established
928 7bce6780 2012-06-09 alex incoming server link while preparing its own outgoing connection.
929 7bce6780 2012-06-09 alex Peers that both try to connect each other could have been affected.
930 7bce6780 2012-06-09 alex - Log a debug message when SIGUSR2 is handled in debug mode.
931 7bce6780 2012-06-09 alex - Only allow alphanumeric characters in user-supplied user names of
932 7bce6780 2012-06-09 alex USER command and IDENT replies.
933 7bce6780 2012-06-09 alex - Change wording of "TLS initialized" message to make it more consistent.
934 7bce6780 2012-06-09 alex - Don't leak file descriptors on error path when creating "PID files".
935 7bce6780 2012-06-09 alex - Add missing mode "r" to CHANMODES in 005 "ISUPPORT" numeric.
936 7bce6780 2012-06-09 alex - Update doc/Modes.txt and doc/Platforms.txt documents.
937 7bce6780 2012-06-09 alex - contrib/platformtest.sh: correctly detect Open64 C compiler and handle
938 7bce6780 2012-06-09 alex "CC=xxx MAKE=yyy ./platformtest.sh" calling convention.
939 7bce6780 2012-06-09 alex - Add instructions for setting up Atheme IRC services.
940 7bce6780 2012-06-09 alex - Implement support for IRC capability handling, the new "CAP" command,
941 cb3a4321 2015-09-06 alex and capability "multi-prefix" which allows both the NAME and WHO command
942 7bce6780 2012-06-09 alex handlers to return more than one "class prefix" to the client.
943 7bce6780 2012-06-09 alex - Update Xcode project files: reference missing documentation files.
944 7bce6780 2012-06-09 alex - Fix: Don't ignore "permission denied" errors when enabling chroot.
945 7bce6780 2012-06-09 alex - FAQ: enhance description of chroot setup.
947 2e931298 2013-10-31 alex ngIRCd 19.1 (2012-03-19)
949 06b63278 2012-03-16 alex - Fix gcc warning (v4.6.3), initialize "list" variable to NULL.
950 06b63278 2012-03-16 alex - Fix typos: "recieved" -> "received", "Please not" -> "Please note",
951 06b63278 2012-03-16 alex and fix lintian(1) warning ""hyphen-used-as-minus-sign", too.
952 ae275714 2012-05-07 alex - Really include _all_ patches to build the Anope module into the
953 0de11ead 2012-03-05 alex distribution archive ... ooops!
954 ae275714 2012-05-07 alex - getpid.sh: Fix test case error for Debian using sbuild(1).
955 0de11ead 2012-03-05 alex - Don't log "ngIRCd hello message" two times when starting up.
957 2e931298 2013-10-31 alex ngIRCd 19 (2012-02-29)
959 9e7360e5 2012-02-29 alex - Update build system: bump config.guess and config.sub files used by
960 9e7360e5 2012-02-29 alex GNU autoconf/automake to recent versions.
961 9e7360e5 2012-02-29 alex - Fix configuration file parser: don't accept "[SSL]" blocks in the
962 9e7360e5 2012-02-29 alex configuration file when no SSL support is built in ngIRCd.
963 9e7360e5 2012-02-29 alex - Fix building ngIRCd with old gcc versions (e. g. 2.7.2).
964 9e7360e5 2012-02-29 alex - Correctly re-open syslog logging after reading of configuration
965 9e7360e5 2012-02-29 alex file: Syslog logging has been initialized before reading the
966 ae275714 2012-05-07 alex configuration, so ngIRCd always used the default facility and ignored
967 9e7360e5 2012-02-29 alex the "SyslogFacility" configuration option ...
968 9e7360e5 2012-02-29 alex Thanks to Patrik Schindler for reporting this issue!
970 8e3c56e5 2012-02-12 alex ngIRCd 19~rc1 (2012-02-12)
971 f7bdee5f 2012-02-12 alex - Enhance command limits for server links: the limit now is dependent
972 f7bdee5f 2012-02-12 alex on the number of users connected in the network and higher while
973 f7bdee5f 2012-02-12 alex servers are joining the network to make the login of servers faster.
974 f7bdee5f 2012-02-12 alex - Log more information about server synchronization.
975 f7bdee5f 2012-02-12 alex - Update preliminary ngIRCd protocol module for Anope 1.9.6, which now
976 f7bdee5f 2012-02-12 alex is the only supported version.
977 ae275714 2012-05-07 alex - New numeric RPL_WHOISHOST_MSG(378), which returns the DNS host name
978 8c46067b 2012-01-23 alex (if available) and the IP address of a client in the WHOIS reply.
979 8c46067b 2012-01-23 alex Only the user itself and local IRC operators get this numeric.
980 9882e578 2012-01-22 alex - Implement channel exception list (mode 'e'). This allows a channel
981 9882e578 2012-01-22 alex operator to define exception masks that allow users to join the
982 9882e578 2012-01-22 alex channel even when a "ban" would match and prevent them from joining:
983 9882e578 2012-01-22 alex the exception list (e) overrides the ban list (b).
984 9882e578 2012-01-22 alex - PRIVMSG and NOTICE: Handle nick!user@host masks case-insensitive.
985 9882e578 2012-01-22 alex - Implement user mode 'C': If the target user of a PRIVMSG or NOTICE
986 9882e578 2012-01-22 alex command has the user mode 'C' set, it is required that both sender
987 9882e578 2012-01-22 alex and receiver are on the same channel. This prevents private flooding
988 9882e578 2012-01-22 alex by completely unknown clients.
989 9882e578 2012-01-22 alex - New RPL_WHOISREGNICK_MSG(307) numeric in WHOIS command replies: it
990 48326e06 2012-11-02 alex indicates if a nickname is registered (if user mode 'R' set).
991 9882e578 2012-01-22 alex - Limit channel invite, ban, and exception lists to 50 entries and fix
992 9882e578 2012-01-22 alex duplicate check and error messages when adding already listed entries
993 9882e578 2012-01-22 alex or deleting no (longer) existing ones.
994 9882e578 2012-01-22 alex - Fix both ERR_SUMMONDISABLED(445) and ERR_USERSDISABLED(446) replies.
995 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex - MODE command: correctly return ERR_UNKNOWNMODE(472) numeric for
996 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex unknown channel modes, instead of ERR_UMODEUNKNOWNFLAG(501).
997 f7bdee5f 2012-02-12 alex - ISUPPORT(005) numeric: add "O", "R", and "z" modes to "CHANMODES",
998 f7bdee5f 2012-02-12 alex add "EXCEPTS=e" and "INVEX=I", add "MAXLIST=beI:50".
999 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex - Limit the number of list items in the reply of LIST (100), WHO (25),
1000 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex WHOIS (10), and WHOWAS (25) commands.
1001 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex - LIST command: compare pattern case insensitive.
1002 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex - Limit the MODE command to handle a maximum number of 5 channel modes
1003 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex that require an argument (+Ibkl) per call and report this number
1004 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex in the ISUPPORT(005) numeric: "MODES=5".
1005 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex - Fix handling of channel mode sequence with/without arguments.
1006 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex For example, don't generate wrong error messages when handling
1007 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex "MODE #chan +IIIIItn *!aa@b *!bb@c *!cc@d *!dd@e *!ee@f".
1008 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex - When sending data on a connection, only try to get the type of
1009 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex the client if there still is one assigned. This could trigger an
1010 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex assertion and end the daemon in some error paths.
1011 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex - Don't try to close already closed/invalid sockets to forked child
1012 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex processes. This could potentially crash the daemon in some cases
1013 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex with IDENT lookups enabled.
1014 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex - WHOIS command: make sure that the reply ends with RPL_ENDOFWHOIS,
1015 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex don't answer queries for IRC servers, make sure mask matching is
1016 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex case-insensitive, and that RPL_ENDOFWHOIS numeric is sent with the
1017 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex unmodified mask (like it has been received from the client).
1018 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex - LINKS command: support <mask> parameter to limit the reply.
1019 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex - Add 1 second penalty for every further target on PRIVMSG/NOTICE
1020 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex commands: this reduces the possibility of flooding channels with
1021 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex commands like "PRIVMSG/NOTICE #a,#n,#c,... :message" a little bit.
1022 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex Problem noticed by Cahata, thanks!
1023 ae275714 2012-05-07 alex - Display correct error message when "Server{UID|GID}" variable in the
1024 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex configuration file is invalid (not a number and no existing user).
1025 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex - Update Copyright notices for 2012 :-)
1026 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex - JOIN command: don't stop handling of channel lists when a single
1027 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex channel cannot be joined (because of bad name, wrong key or channel
1028 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex limit reached), but report an error and continue. And don't check
1029 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex the channel limit and don't report with "too many channels" when
1030 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex trying to join a channel that the client already is a member of.
1031 48326e06 2012-11-02 alex - ISON command: reply with the correct upper-/lowercase nicknames.
1032 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex - New configuration option "PAMIsOptional": when set, clients not
1033 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex sending a password are still allowed to connect: they won't become
1034 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex "identified" and keep the "~" character prepended to their supplied
1035 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex user name. See "man 5 ngircd.conf" for details.
1036 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex - Fixed handling of WHO commands. This fixes two bugs: "WHO <nick>"
1037 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex returned nothing at all if the user was "+i" (reported by Cahata,
1038 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex thanks) and "WHO <nick|nickmask>" returned channel names instead
1039 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex of "*" when the user was member of a (visible) channel.
1040 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex - Fixed some spelling errors in documentation and code comments
1041 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex (Thanks to Christoph Biedl).
1042 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex - contrib/Debian/control: Update and complete "Build-Depends" and
1043 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex update our Debian package descriptions with "official" ones.
1044 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex - Fixed typo in two error messages.
1045 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex - LUSERS reply: only count channels that are visible to the requesting
1046 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex client, so the existence of secret channels is no longer revealed by
1047 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex using LUSERS. Reported by Cahata, thanks!
1048 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex - Unknown user and channel modes no longer stop the mode parser, but
1049 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex are simply ignored. Therefore modes after the unknown one are now
1050 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex handled. This is how ircd2.10/ircd2.11/ircd-seven behave, at least.
1051 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex Reported by Cahata, thanks!
1052 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex - README: Update list of implemented commands.
1053 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex - Log better error messages when rejecting clients.
1054 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex - Implement IRC commands "GLINE" and "KLINE" to ban users. G-Lines are
1055 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex synchronized between server on peering, K-Lines are local only.
1056 8c46067b 2012-01-23 alex If you use "*!<user>@<host>" or "*!*@<host>" masks, these connections
1057 8c46067b 2012-01-23 alex are blocked even before the user is fully logged in (before PASS,
1058 8c46067b 2012-01-23 alex NICK, and USER commands have been processed) and before the child
1059 8c46067b 2012-01-23 alex processes for authentication are forked, so resource usage is smaller.
1060 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex - Xcode: update project file for Xcode 4.2 and define HAVE_GAI_STRERROR
1061 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex for Mac OS X Xcode builds.
1062 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex - ./configure: Fix logic and quoting of poll() detection code: only use
1063 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex poll() when poll.h exists as well.
1064 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex - Suppress 'Can't create pre-defined channel: invalid name: ""' message.
1065 ae275714 2012-05-07 alex - whois-test: handle local host name = "localhost.localdomain" using the
1066 ae275714 2012-05-07 alex pattern "localhost*" for valid local host names.
1067 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex - sample-ngircd.conf: show correct default for "PAM" variable: The
1068 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex default of "PAM" is "yes" when ngIRCd has been configured to use it,
1069 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex so show the correct default value in the sample configuration file.
1070 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex (Closes #119)
1071 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex - Update GPL 2 license text to current version.
1072 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex - Only close "unrelated" sockets in forked child processes: This fixes
1073 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex the problem that ngIRCd can't do any IDENT lookups because of the
1074 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex socket has already been closed in the child process.
1075 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex The bug has been introduced starting with ngIRCd 17 ... :-(
1076 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex (commit ID 6ebb31ab35e)
1077 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex - Added doc/Modes.txt: document modes supported by ngIRCd.
1078 48326e06 2012-11-02 alex - Implement user mode "R": indicates that the nickname of this user
1079 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex is "registered". This mode isn't handled by ngIRCd itself, but must
1080 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex be set and unset by IRC services like Anope.
1081 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex - Implement channel mode "R": only registered users (having the user
1082 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex mode "R" set) are allowed to join this channel.
1083 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex - Test suite: bind to loopback (127.0.0.1) interface only.
1084 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex - New 2nd message "Nickname too long" for error code 432.
1085 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex - Xcode: Mac OS X config.h: support 10.5 as well as 10.6/10.7 SDK.
1086 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex - Xcode: exclude more Xcode 4 specific directories in ".gitignore".
1087 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex - Disconnect directly linked servers sending QUIT. Without this,
1088 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex the server becomes removed from the network and the client list,
1089 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex but the connection isn't shut down at all ...
1090 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex - contrib/ngindent: detect "gindent" as GNU indent.
1091 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex - Handle unknown user and channel modes: these modes are saved and
1092 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex forwarded to other servers, but ignored otherwise.
1093 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex - Handle channel user modes 'a', 'h', and 'q' from remote servers.
1094 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex These channel user modes aren't used for anything at the moment,
1095 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex but ngIRCd knows that these three modes are "channel user modes"
1096 48326e06 2012-11-02 alex and not "channel modes", that is that these modes take an "nickname"
1097 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex argument. Like unknown user and channel modes, these modes are saved
1098 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex and forwarded to other servers, but ignored otherwise.
1099 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex - Correctly inform clients when other servers change their user modes.
1100 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex This is required for some services to work correctly.
1101 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex - Test suite: make getpid.sh work even when run as root.
1102 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex - Spoofed prefixes: close connection on non-server links only.
1103 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex On server-links, spoofed prefixes can happen because of the
1104 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex asynchronous nature of the IRC protocol. So don't break server-
1105 70eb8219 2011-01-01 alex links, only log a message and ignore the command. (Closes #113)
1107 2e931298 2013-10-31 alex ngIRCd 18 (2011-07-10)
1109 54f04f81 2011-07-10 alex - Update timestamp of ngircd(8) manual page.
1110 54f04f81 2011-07-10 alex - Add preliminary ngIRCd protocol module for Anope 1.9 to contrib/Anope/.
1111 54f04f81 2011-07-10 alex - Don't register WHOWAS information when "MorePrivacy" option is in effect.
1113 af60f04f 2011-06-29 alex ngIRCd 18~rc2 (2011-06-29)
1114 af60f04f 2011-06-29 alex - Update documentation, fix some wording, and use a spellchecker :-)
1115 af60f04f 2011-06-29 alex - ngircd.conf.5: strip "SSL" prefix from variables in [SSL] section.
1116 af60f04f 2011-06-29 alex - ngircd.8: document debugging options.
1117 af60f04f 2011-06-29 alex - GnuTLS: use 1024 bits as minimum size of the DH prime. This enables
1118 af60f04f 2011-06-29 alex ngIRCd to accept incoming connections from other servers and clients
1119 af60f04f 2011-06-29 alex that "only" use at least 1024 bits again, like ngIRCd 17 did (and no
1120 af60f04f 2011-06-29 alex longer requires 2048 bits for incoming connections).
1122 b6185b1a 2011-06-27 alex ngIRCd 18~rc1 (2011-06-27)
1123 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - PAM warning message: make clear which "Password" config option is ignored.
1124 bd118c65 2011-06-28 alex - New configuration option "MorePrivacy" to "censor" some user information.
1125 bd118c65 2011-06-28 alex When enabled, signon time and idle time is left out. Part and quit
1126 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex messages are made to look the same. WHOWAS requests are silently dropped.
1127 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex All of this is useful if one wish to conceal users that access the ngircd
1128 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex servers from TOR or I2P.
1129 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - New configuration option "ScrubCTCP" to scrub incoming CTCP commands. If
1130 bd118c65 2011-06-28 alex activated, the server silently drops incoming CTCP requests from both
1131 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex other servers and from users. The server that scrubs CTCP will not forward
1132 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex the CTCP requests to other servers in the network either, which can spell
1133 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex trouble if not every oper knows about the CTCP-scrubbing. Scrubbing CTCP
1134 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex commands also means that it is not possible to send files between users.
1135 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex There is one exception to the CTCP scrubbing performed: ACTION ("/me
1136 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex commands") requests are not scrubbed.
1137 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - Display configuration errors more prominent on "--configtest".
1138 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - Restructure ngIRCd configuration file: introduce new [Limits], [Options],
1139 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex and [SSL] sections. The intention of this restructuring is to make the
1140 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex [Global] section much cleaner, so that it only contains variables that
1141 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex most installations must adjust to the local requirements. All the optional
1142 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex variables are moved to [Limits], for configurable limits and timers of
1143 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex ngIRCd, and [Options], for optional features. All SSL-related variables
1144 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex are moved to [SSL] and the "SSL"-prefix is stripped. The old variables in
1145 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex the [Global] section are deprecated now, but are still recognized.
1146 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex => Don't forget to check your configuration, use "ngircd --configtest"!
1147 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - New documentation "how to contribute": doc/Contributing.txt.
1148 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - Slightly fix error handling when connecting to remote servers.
1149 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - GnuTLS: bump DH-bitsize to 2048: this solves the problem that some clients
1150 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex refuse to connect to severs that only offer 1024. For interoperability it
1151 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex would be best to just use 4096 bits, but that takes minutes, even on
1152 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex current hardware ...
1153 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - contrib/platformtest.sh: fix gcc version detection.
1154 bd118c65 2011-06-28 alex - Avoid needlessly scary 'buffer overflow' messages: When the write buffer
1155 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex space grows too large, ngIRCd has to disconnect the client to avoid
1156 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex wasting too much memory, which is logged with a scary 'write buffer
1157 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex overflow' message. Change this to a more descriptive wording.
1158 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - Require server prefixes for most commands on RFC2812 links. RFC1459 links
1159 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex (often used by services, for example) are not affected.
1160 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - Mac OS X: update installer functionality, texts, and add our logo :-)
1161 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - New configuration option "RequireAuthPing": PING-PONG on login. When
1162 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex enabled, this configuration option lets ngIRCd send a PING with an numeric
1163 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex "token" to clients logging in; and it will not become registered in the
1164 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex network until the client responds with the correct PONG.
1165 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - New configuration option "NoticeAuth": send NOTICE AUTH on connect. When
1166 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex active, ngircd will send "NOTICE AUTH" messages on client connect time
1167 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex like e.g. snircd (QuakeNet) does.
1168 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - Generate WALLOPS message on SQUIT from IRC operators; so SQUIT now behaves
1169 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex like CONNECT and DISCONNECT commands, when called by an IRC operator.
1170 bd118c65 2011-06-28 alex - Allow servers to send more commands in the first 10 seconds ("burst"). This
1171 bd118c65 2011-06-28 alex helps to speed up server login and network synchronization.
1172 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - Add support for up to 3 targets in WHOIS queries, also allow up to one
1173 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex wildcard query from local hosts. Follows ircd 2.10 implementation rather
1174 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex than RFC 2812. At most 10 entries are returned per wildcard expansion.
1175 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - ngircd.conf(5) manual page: describe types of configuration variables
1176 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex (booleans, text strings, integer numbers) and add type information to each
1177 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex variable description.
1178 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - Don't use "the.net" in sample-ngircd.conf, use "example.net".
1179 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - Terminate incoming connections on HTTP commands "GET" and "POST".
1180 ae275714 2012-05-07 alex - New configuration option "CloakHost": when set, this host name is used for
1181 ae275714 2012-05-07 alex every client instead of the real DNS host name (or IP address).
1182 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - New configuration option "CloakUserToNick": when enabled, ngIRCd sets
1183 48326e06 2012-11-02 alex every clients' user name to their nickname and hides the user name
1184 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex supplied by the IRC client.
1185 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - doc/Protocol.txt: Update description of the CHANINFO and WEBIRC commands.
1186 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - Doxygen'ify (document) much more source files; code cleanup ...
1187 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - Make write buffers bigger, but flush early. Before this change, a client
1188 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex got disconnected if the buffer flushing at 4k failed, now regular clients
1189 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex can store up to 32k and servers up 64k even if flushing is not possible at
1190 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex the moment. This enhances reliability on slow links.
1191 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - Don't access possibly free'd CLIENT structure. Ooops.
1192 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - Allow "Port = 0" in [Server] blocks. Port number 0 marks remote servers
1193 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex that try to connect to this daemon, but where this daemon never tries to
1194 bd118c65 2011-06-28 alex establish a connection on its own: only incoming connections are allowed.
1195 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - Configuration: fix 'Value of "..." is not a number!' for negative values.
1196 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - Enable WHOIS command to return information about services.
1197 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - Implement channel mode 'O': "IRC operators only". This channel mode is
1198 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex used on DALnet (bahamut), for example.
1199 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - Remove support for ZeroConf/Bonjour/Rendezvous service registration
1200 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex including the "[No]ZeroConf" configuration option.
1201 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - TOPIC command: test for channel admin rights correctly: this enables other
1202 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex servers, services and IRC operators to change channel topics, even when
1203 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex the client is not joined to this channel.
1204 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - Deprecate NoXX-Options in ngircd.conf and move new variants into our new
1205 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex [Options] section: 'NoDNS=no' => 'DNS=yes', 'NoIdent=no' => 'Ident=yes',
1206 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex 'NoPAM=no' => 'PAM=yes', and 'NoZeroConf=no' => 'ZeroConf=yes' (and
1207 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex vice-versa). The defaults are adjusted accordingly and the old variables
1208 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex in [Global] are still accepted, so there is no functional change.
1209 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - Fix confusing "adding to invite list" debug messages: adding entries to
1210 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex ban list produced 'invite list' debug output ...
1211 bd118c65 2011-06-28 alex - Don't throttle services and servers being registered.
1212 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - Xcode: correctly sort files :-)
1213 bd118c65 2011-06-28 alex - Don't assert() when searching a client for an invalid server token (this is
1214 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex only relevant when a trusted server on a server-server link sends invalid
1215 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex commands).
1217 2e931298 2013-10-31 alex ngIRCd 17.1 (2010-12-19)
1219 186b14f3 2010-12-19 alex - --configtest: remember if MOTD is configured by file or phrase
1220 186b14f3 2010-12-19 alex - Enhance log messages when establishing server links a little bit
1221 186b14f3 2010-12-19 alex - Reset ID of outgoing server link on DNS error correctly
1222 186b14f3 2010-12-19 alex - Don't log critical (or worse) messages to stderr
1223 186b14f3 2010-12-19 alex - Manual page ngircd(8): add SIGNALS section
1224 bd118c65 2011-06-28 alex - Manual pages: update and simplify AUTHORS section
1225 186b14f3 2010-12-19 alex - Remove "error file" when compiled with debug code enabled
1226 186b14f3 2010-12-19 alex - README: Updated list of implemented commands
1227 186b14f3 2010-12-19 alex - add doc/README-Interix.txt and doc/Bopm.txt to distribution tarball
1228 186b14f3 2010-12-19 alex - Merge branch 'numeric-329'
1229 186b14f3 2010-12-19 alex - add doc/PAM.txt to distribution tarball
1230 186b14f3 2010-12-19 alex - New numeric 329: get channel creation time on "MODE #chan" commands
1231 186b14f3 2010-12-19 alex - Save channel creation time; new function Channel_CreationTime()
1233 2e931298 2013-10-31 alex ngIRCd 17 (2010-11-07)
1235 0d19f2b4 2010-11-07 alex - doc: change path names in sample-ngircd.conf depending on sysconfdir
1236 0d19f2b4 2010-11-07 alex - Fix up generation and distribution of sample-ngircd.conf
1237 0d19f2b4 2010-11-07 alex - contrib/ngircd-redhat.init: updated email address of Naoya Nakazawa
1238 0d19f2b4 2010-11-07 alex - contrib/platformtest.sh: make command name quoting consistent
1240 bdcf3f0e 2010-10-27 alex ngIRCd 17~rc3 (2010-10-27)
1241 cb3a4321 2015-09-06 alex - Xcode builds: detect version number correctly, updated project file

1270 5e82a91d 2010-09-24 alex "user" and "local1" through "local7" are possible values; see syslog(3).
1271 5e82a91d 2010-09-24 alex Default is "local5" for historical reasons.

1292 4833f9e5 2010-08-29 alex re-read the MOTD file when its content changed.
1293 4833f9e5 2010-08-29 alex - Startup: open /dev/null before chroot'ing the daemon.

1677 ae63ed04 2005-02-04 alex ngIRCd 0.8.3 (2005-02-03)
1679 ae63ed04 2005-02-04 alex - Fixed a bug that could case a root exploit when the daemon is compiled
1680 ae63ed04 2005-02-04 alex to do IDENT lookups and is logging to syslog. Bug discovered by CoKi,
1681 ae63ed04 2005-02-04 alex <coki@nosystem.com.ar>, thanks a lot!
1682 54e6a2dc 2008-11-12 alex (CVE-2005-0226; http://www.nosystem.com.ar/advisories/advisory-11.txt)

1692 07fe1988 2005-02-03 alex Florian Westphal, <westphal@foo.fh-furtwangen.de>.
1693 07fe1988 2005-02-03 alex - Fixed return values of our own implementation of strlcpy(). The code has
1694 07fe1988 2005-02-03 alex been taken from rsync and they fixed it, but we didn't until today :-/
1695 07fe1988 2005-02-03 alex It has only been used when the system didn't implement strlcpy by itself,
1696 07fe1988 2005-02-03 alex not on "modern" systems. Florian Westphal, <westphal@foo.fh-furtwangen.de>.
1698 dcb9e2a0 2004-12-25 alex ngIRCd 0.8.1 (2004-12-25)
1700 dcb9e2a0 2004-12-25 alex - Autoconf: Updated config.guess and config.sub

1702 dcb9e2a0 2004-12-25 alex - Fixed wrong variable names in output of "ngircd --configtest".
1703 dcb9e2a0 2004-12-25 alex - Debian: Fixed the name of the "default file" in the init script for
1704 dcb9e2a0 2004-12-25 alex ngircd-full packages. And do the test if the binary is executable after

1706 e07cc4bb 2004-09-04 alex - Enhanced the "test suite": please have a look at src/testsuite/README!
1708 beb4edd3 2004-07-03 alex ngIRCd 0.8.0 (2004-06-26)
1710 0b3ee07a 2004-05-30 alex - Fixed wrong buffer size calculation for results of the resolver.
1712 0b3ee07a 2004-05-30 alex ngircd 0.8.0-pre2 (2004-05-16)
1713 d8f47ed1 2004-05-11 alex - Enhanced logging to console when running in "no-detached mode": added

1719 7281b8dd 2004-05-07 alex - Two new configuration options: "ChrootDir" and "MotdPhrase", thanks to
1720 7281b8dd 2004-05-07 alex Benjamin Pineau <ben@zouh.org>. Now you can force the daemon to change
1721 7281b8dd 2004-05-07 alex its root and working directory to something "safe". MotdPhrase is used
1722 7281b8dd 2004-05-07 alex to define an "MOTD string" instead of a whole file, useful if the
1723 7281b8dd 2004-05-07 alex "real" MOTD file would be outside the "jail".
1724 59b903f3 2004-04-25 alex - INVITE- and BAN-lists become synchronized between IRC+ servers when
1725 59b903f3 2004-04-25 alex establishing new connections, if the peer supports this as well.
1726 59b903f3 2004-04-25 alex - Reorganized autogen.sh and configure scripts.
1727 1d8da4b5 2004-04-25 alex - Fixed a wrong assert() which could cause the daemon to exit spuriously
1728 1d8da4b5 2004-04-25 alex when closing down connections.
1729 292c7bd4 2004-04-25 alex - Better logging of decompression errors returned by zlib.
1730 233210b9 2004-04-09 alex - Servers other than the destination server didn't clean up the invite
1731 233210b9 2004-04-09 alex list of an "invite-only" channel properly when an INVITE'd user joined.
1732 56227abc 2004-02-29 alex - Changed the reply of the MODE command to match the syntax of the
1733 56227abc 2004-02-29 alex original ircd exactly: the unnecessary but missing ":" before the last
1734 56227abc 2004-02-29 alex parameter has been added.
1735 bdaf53e7 2004-02-28 alex - Fixed TRACE: don't output "Serv" lines for ourself; display more info.
1736 ae275714 2012-05-07 alex - Results of the resolver (host names and IDENT names) are discarded after
1737 33f4e676 2004-02-28 alex the client is successfully registered with the server.
1738 33f4e676 2004-02-28 alex - Better logging while establishing and shutting down connections.
1739 bb98fd8c 2004-01-25 alex - The type of service (TOS) of all sockets is set to "interactive" now.
1740 c9ccb669 2004-12-29 alex - Added short command line option "-t" as alternative to "--configtest".
1741 b79b315d 2003-12-27 alex - Added optional support for "IDENT" lookups on incoming connections. You
1742 b79b315d 2003-12-27 alex have to enable this function with the ./configure switch "--with-ident".
1743 b79b315d 2003-12-27 alex The default is not to do IDENT lookups.
1745 1e3363d2 2004-02-05 alex ngIRCd 0.7.7 (2004-02-05)
1747 1e3363d2 2004-02-05 alex - The info text ("real name") of users is set to "-" if none has been
1748 1e3363d2 2004-02-05 alex specified using the USER command (e. g. "USER user * * :"). Reason:
1749 1e3363d2 2004-02-05 alex the original ircd doesn't like empty ones and would KILL such users.
1750 1e3363d2 2004-02-05 alex - Fixed (optional) TCP Wrapper test which was broken and could result in
1751 1e3363d2 2004-02-05 alex false results. Thanks to Fuminori Tanizaki <tany@mcnet.ad.jp>!
1752 c40592d2 2003-12-26 alex - Removed "USE_" prefixes of configuration #defines.

1759 07ad774f 2003-12-05 alex - Enhanced/fixed doc/Protocol.txt;
1761 2978b5ed 2003-11-07 alex ngIRCd 0.7.5 (2003-11-07)
1763 be79fabc 2003-11-06 alex - Fixed ban behavior: users which are banned from a channel can't no

1765 7b6e2662 2003-11-05 alex - Fixed and enhanced the "penalty handling" of the server: commands that
1766 7b6e2662 2003-11-05 alex require more resources block the client for a short time.
1767 7b6e2662 2003-11-05 alex - Changed the internal time resolution to one second.
1768 2981fe9e 2003-11-05 alex - New configuration variable "MaxConnectionsIP" to limit the number of
1769 2981fe9e 2003-11-05 alex simultaneous connections from a single IP that the server will accept.
1770 2981fe9e 2003-11-05 alex This configuration options lowers the risk of denial of service attacks
1771 2981fe9e 2003-11-05 alex (DoS), the default is 5 connections per client IP.
1772 20d002e1 2003-11-04 alex - Fixed build problems under Mac OS X 10.3.
1773 cfe63565 2003-10-19 alex - Use "-pipe" when compiling with gcc, speeds things up a little :-)
1774 e33ab903 2003-09-11 alex - Added new configuration variable "Listen" to bind all listening
1775 e33ab903 2003-09-11 alex sockets of the server to a single IP address.
1776 d8f3c2b4 2003-09-09 alex - Suppress misleading error message of diff during make run.

1790 27cd1e0d 2003-05-01 alex ngIRCd 0.7.0 (2003-05-01)
1792 e541da2a 2003-04-29 alex - "ServerName" is checked better now: a dot (".") is required.
1793 da9456db 2003-07-09 alex - The KILL command verifies and logs more parameters.

1801 a1ff081b 2003-04-25 alex - Disable "-ansi" on Cygwin: system headers are incompatible.
1802 dd0b3769 2003-04-25 alex - The server tried to connect to other servers only once when DNS or
1803 da9456db 2003-07-09 alex socket failures occurred.
1804 32f8eb46 2003-04-27 alex - Fixed --configtest: There is no variable "ServerPwd", it's "Password".

1807 371fc259 2002-12-26 alex - New signal handler (more secure, actions are executed outside).
1808 371fc259 2002-12-26 alex - GCC: the compiler is now called with more warning options enabled.
1809 371fc259 2002-12-26 alex - Replaced a lot of str[n]cpy(), str[n]cat() and sprintf() calls with the
1810 371fc259 2002-12-26 alex more secure functions strlcpy(), strlcat() and snprintf(). On systems
1811 371fc259 2002-12-26 alex that don't support strlcpy() and strlcat(), these functions are included
1812 371fc259 2002-12-26 alex in the libngportab now (with prototypes in portab.h).
1813 c9ee3ae4 2002-12-27 alex - If the server can't close a socket, it panics now. This is an error that
1814 a84b9d99 2003-03-09 alex can't occur during normal operation so there is something broken.
1815 c9ee3ae4 2002-12-27 alex - The order of log messages during disconnects is more "natural" now ;-)
1816 a2544e49 2003-12-30 alex - Cleaned up handling of server configuration structures: modifying and

1818 4953c15b 2003-12-30 alex - Compression code from "conn.[ch]" is now found in new "conn-zip.[ch]"
1819 f83ea4b1 2003-12-30 alex - Moved some connection functions from "conn.[ch]" to "conn-func.[ch]".
1820 717a26e3 2003-12-31 alex - New command CONNECT to enable and add server links. The syntax is not
1821 717a26e3 2003-12-31 alex RFC-compatible: use "CONNECT <name> <port>" to enable and connect an
1822 717a26e3 2003-12-31 alex configured server and "CONNECT <name> <port> <host> <mypwd> <peerpwd>"
1823 717a26e3 2003-12-31 alex to add a new server (ngIRCd tries to connect new servers only once!).

1825 1a1ff404 2003-03-15 alex - Restructured the documentation: Now the main language is English. The
1826 cb3a4321 2015-09-06 alex German documentation has been removed (until there is a maintainer).

1828 6a0bd57e 2003-01-12 alex - Better error detection for status code ("numerics") forwarding.
1829 f9cb4a42 2003-01-13 alex - Moved tool functions to own library: "libngtool".
1830 947c5124 2003-01-13 alex - New command TRACE (you can trace only servers at the moment).
1831 28cd2c11 2003-01-15 alex - New command HELP that lists all understood commands.
1832 fd4a6b5d 2003-03-04 alex - There should no longer remain "unknown connections" (see e.g. LUSERS)
1833 155f26ee 2003-01-15 alex if an outgoing server link can't be established.
1834 560c7961 2003-01-31 alex - Added AC_PREREQ(2.50) to configure.in for better autoconf compatibility.
1835 a84b9d99 2003-03-09 alex - Conn_Close() now handles recursive calls for the same link correctly.
1836 f349b189 2003-02-23 alex - ngIRCd can register itself with Rendezvous: to enable support pass the
1837 7640aa51 2003-03-07 alex new switch "--with-rendezvous" to configure.
1838 7640aa51 2003-03-07 alex - Added support for TCP Wrappers library: pass "--with-tcp-wrappers" to
1839 7640aa51 2003-03-07 alex configure to enable it.
1840 7640aa51 2003-03-07 alex - Changed some configure options to use "--with"/"--without" as prefix
1841 a84b9d99 2003-03-09 alex instead of "--enable"/"--disable": "--without-syslog", "--without-zlib",
1842 7640aa51 2003-03-07 alex "--with-tcp-wrappers", and "--with-rendezvous".
1843 ade2fdc9 2003-03-07 alex - Better error reporting to clients on connect.
1844 8fc69bb6 2003-03-10 alex - Enhanced manual pages ngircd(8) and ngircd.conf(5).
1845 4ef6dae1 2003-04-20 alex - Documentation is now installed in $(datadir)/doc/ngircd.
1846 fd9266df 2009-01-01 alex - Enhanced handling of NJOIN in case of nick collisions.

1850 9d8f425a 2003-01-21 alex - Fixed KILL: you can't crash the server by killing yourself any more,
1851 9d8f425a 2003-01-21 alex ngIRCd no longer sends a QUIT to other servers after the KILL, and you
1852 9d8f425a 2003-01-21 alex can kill only valid users now.
1853 9d8f425a 2003-01-21 alex - The server no longer forwards commands to ordinary users, instead it

1855 9d8f425a 2003-01-21 alex - WHOIS commands weren't always forwarded as requested.
1856 9d8f425a 2003-01-21 alex - The server sets a correct default AWAY message now when propagating
1857 9d8f425a 2003-01-21 alex between servers (bug introduced in 0.6.0).
1858 9d8f425a 2003-01-21 alex - Fixed up and enhanced CHANINFO command: channel keys and user limits
1859 a93b4d97 2003-04-05 alex are synchronized between servers now, too.
1860 9d8f425a 2003-01-21 alex - MODE returns the key and user limit for channel members correctly now.
1861 d978d8dd 2003-01-17 alex - Non-members of a channel could crash the server when trying to change
1862 d978d8dd 2003-01-17 alex its modes or modes of its members.
1863 9d8f425a 2003-01-21 alex - The server didn't validate weather a target user is a valid channel
1864 9d8f425a 2003-01-21 alex member when changing his channel user modes which could crash ngIRCd.
1867 cb3a4321 2015-09-06 alex Older changes (sorry, only available in German language):
1869 2e931298 2013-10-31 alex ngIRCd 0.6.0, 24.12.2002
1871 2e931298 2013-10-31 alex ngIRCd 0.6.0-pre2, 23.12.2002

1873 2f903412 2002-12-22 alex - LUSERS erweitert: nun wird die maximale Anzahl der lokalen und globalen
1874 2f903412 2002-12-22 alex Clients, die dem Server bzw. im Netzwerk seit dem letzten (Re-)Start
1875 2f903412 2002-12-22 alex dem Server gleichzeitig bekannt waren, angezeigt.
1877 2e931298 2013-10-31 alex ngIRCd 0.6.0-pre1, 18.12.2002
1878 b7593369 2002-10-09 alex - beim Schliessen einer Verbindung zeigt der Server nun vor dem ERROR
1879 5e70a131 2002-10-09 alex noch eine Statistik ueber die empfangene und gesendete Datenmenge an.
1880 51dd80c4 2002-11-04 alex - der Server wartet bei einer eingehenden Verbindung nun laenger auf den
1881 51dd80c4 2002-11-04 alex Resolver (4 Sekunden), wenn das Ergebnis eintrifft setzt er aber den
1882 51dd80c4 2002-11-04 alex Login sofort fort (bisher wurde immer mind. 1 Sekunde gewartet).
1883 51dd80c4 2002-11-04 alex - Connection-Strukturen werden nun "pool-weise" verwaltet; der Pool wird
1884 51dd80c4 2002-11-04 alex bei Bedarf bis zu einem konfigurierten Limit vergroessert.
1885 865c4308 2002-12-15 alex - Mit der neuen Konfigurationsvariable "MaxConnections" (Sektion "Global")

1888 47c8bcc8 2002-11-05 alex - der Server erkennt nun, ob bereits eine eingehende Verbindung von einem
1889 47c8bcc8 2002-11-05 alex Peer-Server besteht und versucht dann nicht mehr, selber eine eigene
1890 47c8bcc8 2002-11-05 alex ausgehende Verbindung zu diesem auufzubauen. Dadurch kann nun auf beiden
1891 47c8bcc8 2002-11-05 alex Servern in der Konfiguration ein Port fuer den Connect konfiguriert
1892 47c8bcc8 2002-11-05 alex werden (beide Server versuchen sich dann gegenseitig zu connectieren).
1893 8457fca5 2002-11-11 alex - Test-Suite und Dokumentation an A/UX angepasst.
1894 f80a5ae1 2002-11-15 alex - unter HP-UX definiert das configure-Script nun _XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED.

1896 caa7049e 2002-11-19 alex Passwort, welches A an B schickt, kann ein anderes sein als das, welches
1897 caa7049e 2002-11-19 alex B als Antwort an A sendet. In der Konfig.-Datei, Abschnitt "Server",
1898 caa7049e 2002-11-19 alex wurde "Password" dazu durch "MyPassword" und "PeerPassword" ersetzt.
1899 ab788a2e 2002-11-22 alex - Der Server kann nun zur Laufzeit die Konfiguration neu einlesen: dies
1900 413fed98 2002-11-22 alex macht er nach dem Befehl REHASH oder wenn ein HUP-Signal empfangen wird.
1901 b8cf379f 2002-11-22 alex - Channel-Mode "P" ("persistent") kann nur noch von IRC-Operatoren gesetzt
1902 b8cf379f 2002-11-22 alex werden. Grund: User koennen den Server sonst leicht "Channel-Flooden".
1903 ae128734 2002-11-24 alex - MOTD kann nun an andere Server geforwarded werden.
1904 ae128734 2002-11-24 alex - IRC-Befehl "TIME" implementiert.
1905 2625ce78 2002-11-26 alex - Server-Server-Links koennen nun komprimiert werden, dazu wird die zlib
1906 2625ce78 2002-11-26 alex (www.zlib.org) benoetigt. Unterstuetzt die Gegenseite die Komprimierung
1907 2625ce78 2002-11-26 alex nicht, wird automatisch unkomprimiert kommuniziert. Das Verfahren ist
1908 2625ce78 2002-11-26 alex kompatibel mit dem Original-ircd 2.10.3, d.h. beide Server koennen
1909 2625ce78 2002-11-26 alex miteinander ueber komprimiert Links kommunizieren.
1910 2de5b5cf 2002-11-26 alex - Handling der Schreibpuffer umgestellt: Server sollte schneller arbeiten.
1911 7a6f99a6 2002-11-29 alex - Prefix-Fehler werden besser protokolliert (mit verursachendem Befehl).
1912 a1dff152 2002-11-28 alex - SQUIT wird nicht mehr doppelt an andere Server weitergeleitet.
1913 93a39e87 2002-11-28 alex - Der Server versucht nun vor dem Schliessen einer Verbindung Daten, die
1914 93a39e87 2002-11-28 alex noch im Schreibpuffer stehen, zu senden.
1915 0efec7c0 2002-12-01 alex - Source in weiteres Modul "irc-info" aufgespalten.
1916 c3a892e1 2002-11-30 alex - Konfigurationsvariablen werden besser validiert: Laengen, Zahlen, ...
1917 b9d6a03e 2002-12-18 alex - neuen Befehl STATS begonnen: bisher unterstuetzt wird "l" und "m".
1918 4807c4e6 2002-12-02 alex - bei ISON und USERHOST fehlte im Ergebnis-String der korrekte Absender.
1919 b55915c1 2002-12-14 alex - IRC Operatoren koennen nun mit KILL User toeten. Achtung: ein Grund muss
1920 11c4e786 2002-12-06 alex zwingend als zweiter Parameter angegeben werden!
1921 f7fe170a 2002-12-14 alex - neue Konfigurations-Variable "MaxJoins": Hiermit kann die maximale Zahl
1922 f7fe170a 2002-12-14 alex der Channels, in denen ein User Mitglied sein kann, begrent werden.
1923 3c7909cc 2002-12-15 alex - neuer, deutlich flexiblerer Parser fuer den MODE Befehl.
1924 ca584143 2002-12-16 alex - neue Channel-Modes l (User-Limit) und k (Channel-Key) implementiert.
1926 a7eb18db 2002-11-24 alex ngIRCd 0.5.4, 24.11.2002
1928 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex - Fehler-Handling von connect() gefixed: der Server kann sich nun auch
1929 a7eb18db 2002-11-24 alex unter A/UX wieder zu anderen verbinden.
1930 a7eb18db 2002-11-24 alex - in den Konfigurationsvariablen ServerUID und ServerGID kann nun nicht
1931 a7eb18db 2002-11-24 alex nur die numerische ID, sondern auch der Name des Users bzw. der Gruppe
1932 a7eb18db 2002-11-24 alex verwendet werden. Beim Start des Daemons wird nun beides angezeigt.
1933 a7eb18db 2002-11-24 alex - Besseres Logging von Prefix-Fehlern.
1934 a7eb18db 2002-11-24 alex - angenommene Sockets werden nun korrekt auf "non-blocking" konfiguriert,
1935 a7eb18db 2002-11-24 alex beim Senden und Empfangen werden Blockierungen besser abgefangen.
1936 4f54760c 2002-11-22 alex - RPL_UMODEIS hat Code 221, nicht 211 ... *argl*
1937 5e89b0c8 2002-11-23 alex - select() in Try_Write() hat falschen (keinen!) Timeout verwendet;
1938 5e89b0c8 2002-11-23 alex die "Zeit-Aufloesung" des Servers sind zudem nun 2 Sekunden (TIME_RES).
1939 5e89b0c8 2002-11-23 alex Insgesamt sollte die Reaktionszeit des Server nun besser sein.
1941 8da254ea 2002-11-08 alex ngIRCd 0.5.3, 08.11.2002
1943 51dd80c4 2002-11-04 alex - NOTICE liefert nun wirklich nie mehr einen Fehler, auch dann nicht,
1944 51dd80c4 2002-11-04 alex wenn der sendende Client noch gar nicht registriert ist.
1945 ef407ea5 2002-10-09 alex - ein "schneller Server-Reconnect" wird nur noch dann versucht, wenn die
1946 ef407ea5 2002-10-09 alex Verbindung zuvor ordentlich (="lange genug") in Ordnung war; somit also
1947 ef407ea5 2002-10-09 alex nicht meht, wenn der Peer-Server gleich beim Connect ein ERROR liefert.
1948 b7593369 2002-10-09 alex Das vermeidet "Connect-Orgien".
1949 ef407ea5 2002-10-09 alex - einige Datentypen aufgeraumt: z.B. sind viele INT32s nun LONGs. Das ist
1950 ef407ea5 2002-10-09 alex auf Platformen mit 8-Byte-Integern kompatibler.
1951 0dfb7716 2002-10-11 alex - RPL_YOURHOST_MSG ist nun ircII- und RFC-kompatibel ;-)
1952 863daa29 2002-10-14 alex - Segfault unter hoher Netzaktivitaet behoben: in Conn_Close() wird die
1953 863daa29 2002-10-14 alex Connection-Struktur nun frueher als "ungueltig" markiert.
1955 5eaf1557 2002-10-04 alex ngIRCd 0.5.2, 04.10.2002
1957 25530fff 2002-10-03 alex - Buffer Overflow in Read_Resolver_Result() behoben.
1958 63bda7de 2002-10-04 alex - Format-String-Bugs, die zum Abbruch des Servers fuehrten, behoben.

1961 1ed0c692 2002-10-03 alex ngIRCd 0.5.1, 03.10.2002
1963 7caf3f84 2002-09-22 alex - in RPL_YOURHOST_MSG wurde ein fehlerhafter Versionsstring geliefert.
1964 9d928b24 2002-09-23 alex - Test-Suite: start-server.sh, stop-server.sh und stress-server.sh koennen
1965 9d928b24 2002-09-23 alex nun "manuell" von der Kommandozeile gestartet werden, stress-server.sh
1966 9d928b24 2002-09-23 alex startet per Default nur noch 5 Sessions, eine andere Zahl kann auf der
1967 9d928b24 2002-09-23 alex Kommandozeile uebergeben werden (Syntax: "stress-server.sh <count>").
1968 9ba956ca 2002-09-26 alex - In bestimmten Faellen hat der Server versucht auf einen bereits wieder
1969 9ba956ca 2002-09-26 alex geschlossenen Socket Daten zu schreiben; das fuehrte zu einem Abbruch des
1970 9ba956ca 2002-09-26 alex Servers durch ein assert(). Nun wird geprueft, ob der Socket noch ok ist.
1971 c6e936d6 2002-10-01 alex - im "contrib"-Verzeichnis befindet sich nun eine RPM-Spec-Datei, aus den
1972 c6e936d6 2002-10-01 alex .tar.gz's koennen nun mit "rpm -ta <archiv>" RPM's erzeugt werden. Danke
1973 c6e936d6 2002-10-01 alex an Sean Reifschneider <jafo@tummy.com>!
1974 7a2b49a6 2002-10-03 alex - Syntax von RPL_MYINFO_MSG korrigiert: liefert nun vier Parameter.

1980 1a6f88f2 2002-09-20 alex - Test der Flags fuer "ps" in der Testsuite verbessert, ist nun zu mehr
1981 1a6f88f2 2002-09-20 alex Plattformen kompatibler.
1983 1ed0c692 2002-10-03 alex ngIRCd 0.5.0-pre2, 17.09.2002

1990 72670833 2002-07-08 alex - auf Systemen, die inet_aton() nicht kennen (wie z.B. A/UX), kann der
1991 72670833 2002-07-08 alex ngIRCd nun dennoch auch aktiv Server-Links aufbauen.
1992 c11e5501 2002-05-18 alex - h_errno wird auf Systemen, die das nicht kennen (wie z.B. HP-UX 10.20)
1993 c11e5501 2002-05-18 alex nicht mehr verwendet. Somit compiliert der ngIRCd nun auch dort :-)
1994 75f1c5ec 2002-05-19 alex - um auf dem Ziel-System nicht vorhandene Funktionen nachzubilden wird nun
1995 75f1c5ec 2002-05-19 alex die "libngportab" erzeugt; genutzt wird dies bisher fuer vsnprintf().

1997 c3aac8dd 2002-05-21 alex - "persistente Channels" (Mode 'P') implementiert: diese koennen in der
1998 c3aac8dd 2002-05-21 alex Konfigurationsdatei definiert werden (Sektion "Channel", vgl. Beispiel-
1999 c3aac8dd 2002-05-21 alex Konfiguration "sample-ngircd.conf") und bleiben auch dann bestehen,
2000 c3aac8dd 2002-05-21 alex wenn kein User mehr im Channel ist. Zu Channel-Operatoren werden bisher
2001 c3aac8dd 2002-05-21 alex nur IRC-Operatoren, die den Channel betreten. Die persistenten Channels
2002 c3aac8dd 2002-05-21 alex werden durch das Flag "P" gelennzeichnet, welches normal durch Channel-
2003 c3aac8dd 2002-05-21 alex Op's gesetzt und geloescht werden kann.
2004 3862949a 2002-05-22 alex - bei "--configtest" werden keine leere Abschnitte mehr ausgegeben.

2008 35507ce9 2002-06-01 alex werden, Listen, wir im RFC vorgesehen, werden bisher nicht unterstuetzt).
2009 922b7dbd 2002-09-08 alex - INVITE, den Channel-Mode "i" sowie Invite-Lists ueber den MODE-Befehl
2010 922b7dbd 2002-09-08 alex (setzen, erfragen und loeschen) implementiert.

2013 124e28b1 2002-05-30 alex nun z.B. unter A/UX mit dem nativen Compiler von Apple.
2014 35507ce9 2002-06-01 alex - TOPIC lieferte bei unbekanntem Channel einen falschen Fehlercode.
2015 a9d44b95 2002-09-16 alex - LIST versteht nun Wildcards und kann an andere Server geforwarded werden.
2016 3b6c3d6d 2002-07-25 alex - wurde ein KILL fuer nicht-lokale Clients empfangen, so wurden die

2019 71ae4731 2002-09-02 alex - neue Konfigurationsoption "OperCanUseMode" (Sektion "Global"):
2020 5e6c713d 2002-09-02 alex ist sie aktiv, koennen IRC-Operatoren immer Channel-Modes setzen.
2021 62d57688 2002-09-03 alex - Dokumentation des neuen IRC+-Protokolls begonnen: doc/Protocol.txt
2022 bfa5fd3a 2002-09-02 alex - Protokoll- und Server-ID bei PASS-Befehlen auf neues Format umgestellt;

2030 eb817807 2002-09-09 alex - wird der Server mit "-n"/"--nodaemon" gestartet, so werden keine Mel-

2032 eb817807 2002-09-09 alex - "Test-Suite" begonnen (in "make check" integriert): Dabei wird ein
2033 eb817807 2002-09-09 alex speziell konfigurierter Server auf Port 6789 gestartet, mit dem dann
2034 eb817807 2002-09-09 alex einige Tests durchgefuehrt werden (u.a. "Stress-Test" mit 50 Clients).
2035 a9d44b95 2002-09-16 alex - zu lange Operator-Namen in der Konfiguration wurden falsch gekuerzt.
2036 a9d44b95 2002-09-16 alex - kleine Anpassung an AIX 3.2.5: nun laeuft der ngIRCd auch dort :-)

2038 a9d44b95 2002-09-16 alex im [Global]-Abschnitt mit den Variablen "AdminInfo1", "AdminInfo2" und
2039 a9d44b95 2002-09-16 alex "AdminEMail" konfiguriert.
2041 e1ef0bd4 2002-06-11 alex ngIRCd 0.4.3, 11.06.2002
2043 e1ef0bd4 2002-06-11 alex - Bei PRIVMSG und NOTICE hat der ngIRCd nicht ueberpruft, ob das Ziel
2044 e1ef0bd4 2002-06-11 alex ueberhaupt ein User ist. War es keiner, so fuehrte dies zu einem
2045 e1ef0bd4 2002-06-11 alex Abbruch des Servers [es wurde assert() aufgerufen].
2047 9cdf8772 2002-05-31 alex ngIRCd 0.4.2, 29.04.2002
2049 f0ebf6c1 2002-04-14 alex - LUSERS verzaehlt sich bei eigenen Server-Links nicht mehr.

2056 b8c153df 2002-04-08 alex - Bei Server-Links wird nicht mehr an Hand der Anzahl der Parameter
2057 b8c153df 2002-04-08 alex eines empfangenen SERVER-Befehls, sondern "intern" erkannt, ob es
2058 b8c153df 2002-04-08 alex sich um eine ein- oder ausgehende Verbindung handelt und somit das
2059 49a57354 2002-04-08 alex eigene PASS-SERVER-Paar gesendet werden muss oder nicht. Da sich
2060 49a57354 2002-04-08 alex verschiedene Versionen des Original-ircd's anders verhalten, schlug
2061 49a57354 2002-04-08 alex die Anmeldung je nach Gehenseite evtl. fehl.
2062 49a57354 2002-04-08 alex - Bei einem NICK-Befehl eines lokalen Client konnte der Server ab-

2067 360bddd6 2002-03-03 alex - IRC-Befehle nochmal auf weitere Source-Dateien aufgespalten.
2068 284a0afb 2002-03-31 alex - WHO implementiert (bisher ohne komplette Unterstuetzung von Masks).

2070 284a0afb 2002-03-31 alex - stderr wird nun in eine Datei umgelenkt (/tmp/ngircd-<PID>.err).
2071 89f9522e 2002-03-10 alex Laeuft der Server nicht im Debug-Modus, so wird diese bei Programm-
2072 89f9522e 2002-03-10 alex ende geloescht. Sollte der Server abstuerzen, finden sich hier evtl.
2073 89f9522e 2002-03-10 alex zusaetzliche Informationen.
2074 89f9522e 2002-03-10 alex - In Nicknames wird das Zeichen "-" nun als zulaessig erkannt.

2078 2464556a 2002-03-10 alex - bei WHO, WHOIS und NAMES wird nun nur noch der Status "Operator" oder
2079 2464556a 2002-03-10 alex "voiced" geliefert -- nicht mehr beides.
2080 2464556a 2002-03-10 alex - Server-Gruppen implementiert: es wird immer nur zu einem Server in
2081 2464556a 2002-03-10 alex einer Gruppe eine Verbindung aufgebaut, klappt es beim ersten Server
2082 2464556a 2002-03-10 alex nicht, so wird der naechste probiert (Variable "Group" in der Kon-
2083 2464556a 2002-03-10 alex figurationsdatei, Sektion [Server]).
2084 22105800 2002-03-10 alex - IRC_PING() ist, wenn nicht im "strict RFC"-Mode, toleranter und ak-
2085 284a0afb 2002-03-31 alex zeptiert beliebig viele Parameter (z.B. BitchX sendet soetwas).
2086 27d131a1 2002-03-12 alex - die "Portab-Header" werden nicht mehr benoetigt, die System-Erkennung
2087 27d131a1 2002-03-12 alex wird nun ausschliesslich vom configure-Script durchgefuehrt. System-
2088 27d131a1 2002-03-12 alex abhaengige Definitionen finden sich nun unter src/portrab/.
2089 c0ef9842 2002-03-25 alex - Clients und Channels werden nicht mehr ueber ihren Namen, sondern
2090 c0ef9842 2002-03-25 alex einen Hash-Wert gesucht: sollte deutlich schneller sein.
2091 95be386e 2002-03-27 alex - neuer Kommandozeilen-Parameter "--configtest": die Konfiguration wird
2092 284a0afb 2002-03-31 alex gelesen und dann die verwendeten Werte angezeigt.
2093 e9b98fef 2002-03-27 alex - Client-Mode "s" (Server Notices) implementiert.
2094 d7ecb848 2002-03-28 alex - mit dem neuen Kommandozeilen-Parameter "--config"/"-f" kann eine
2095 d7ecb848 2002-03-28 alex alternative Konfigurationsdatei angegeben werden.
2096 7efefd30 2002-03-29 alex - nach dem Start kann der ngIRCd, wenn er mit root-Rechten laeuft,
2097 7efefd30 2002-03-29 alex zu einer anderen User-ID und Group-ID wechseln.
2098 60e76ed4 2002-04-01 alex - URL der Homepage wird u.a. bei "--version" mit angezeigt.
2100 e7214c15 2002-03-03 alex ngIRCd 0.3.0, 02.03.2002
2102 00529c8f 2002-02-17 alex - bekommt der Server ein HUP-Signal, so startet er neu -- genau so, wie
2103 00529c8f 2002-02-17 alex er auf den IRC-Befehl RESTART reagiert.
2104 c66702c6 2002-02-19 alex - FAQ um Hinweise auf den Bugtracker erweitert.
2105 c66702c6 2002-02-19 alex - neuer Kommandozeilen-Schalter "--passive" (-p): wird er angegeben, so

2107 c66702c6 2002-02-19 alex Zum Debuggen manchmal ganz praktisch :-)

2109 c66702c6 2002-02-19 alex zeilenschalter in's Logfile (Passive, Debug, Sniffer ...).

2116 aaa682fb 2002-02-23 alex - Durch einen Ueberlauf konnte die Idle-Time bei WHOIS negativ werden ...

2121 8c956d59 2002-02-25 alex schickt, Server bekommen nach wie vor kurze: das "Original" hat bei
2122 8c956d59 2002-02-25 alex bestimmten Befehlen (PRIVMSG) ansonsten evtl. Probleme ...
2123 e4754c34 2002-02-27 alex - NAMES korrigiert und vollstaendig implementiert.

2130 e19ce437 2011-12-29 alex - ausgehende Server-Verbindungen werden nun asynchron connectiert und
2131 02f394f0 2002-03-02 alex blockieren nicht mehr den ganzen Server, wenn die Gegenseite nicht
2132 02f394f0 2002-03-02 alex erreicht werden kann (bis zum Timeout konnten Minuten vergehen!).
2133 5facc989 2002-03-02 alex - Wert der Konfigurations-Variable "ConnectRetry" wird besser beachtet.

2142 25e1e8b6 2002-02-17 alex an den Client geliefert.

2147 4da8fc54 2002-02-11 alex prueft; ist aber nach wie vor noch nicht ausreichend.

2161 6debfc31 2002-01-18 alex wurden falsch uebernommen. Zudem wurden die Modes falsch gekuerzt.
2162 6debfc31 2002-01-18 alex - Server-Verbindungen werden nun nach dem Start erst nach einer kurzen

2175 408793c2 2002-01-29 alex - Signal-Hander geaendert: die Fehlermeldung "interrupted system call"

2185 6600c908 2002-01-16 alex "Sub-Server" haben, also sowohl als Leaf-Node als auch Hub in einem

2187 6600c908 2002-01-16 alex - MODE und NICK melden nun die Aenderungen an andere Server, ebenso

2194 6600c908 2002-01-16 alex - ngIRCd wandelt sich nun in einen Daemon (Hintergrundprozess) um.

2203 64218c16 2002-01-02 alex d.h. sie besteht aus Abschnitten (siehe "doc/sample-ngircd.conf").
2204 adcf68be 2002-01-05 alex - Es koennen mehrere IRC-Server-Opertatoren konfiguriert werden.
2205 64218c16 2002-01-02 alex - Zombies der Resolver-Prozesse werden nun ordentlich "getoetet".

2212 adcf68be 2002-01-05 alex Befehle sind auch noch nicht (optimal) angepasst: PRIVMSG funktioniert
2213 018cffbb 2002-01-06 alex aber bereits, ebenso wie WHOIS (letzterer wird immer an den Server,
