12 e17d4bde 2017-01-20 alex ngIRCd 24 (2017-01-20)
14 e17d4bde 2017-01-20 alex - Make sure that ./contrib/platformtest.sh aborts when ./autogen.sh fails.
15 e17d4bde 2017-01-20 alex - Update config.guess (2016-10-02) and config.sub (2016-11-04) files.
16 e17d4bde 2017-01-20 alex - Build Debian packages with OpenSSL instead of GnuTLS: OpenSSL allows
17 e17d4bde 2017-01-20 alex to reload used certificates on runtime for example (which is very
18 e17d4bde 2017-01-20 alex useful when using Let's Encrypt), and therefore is preferred. And
19 e17d4bde 2017-01-20 alex explicitly specify the "source format".
20 e17d4bde 2017-01-20 alex - Fix handling of connection pool allocation and enlargement: up to now,
21 e17d4bde 2017-01-20 alex the daemon only enlarged its connection pool when accepting new incoming
22 e17d4bde 2017-01-20 alex client or server connections, not when establishing new outgoing server
23 e17d4bde 2017-01-20 alex links, which could lead to problems when hitting the configured limit,
24 e17d4bde 2017-01-20 alex see "MaxConnections". Thanks to Lukas Braun (k00mi) for reporting this!
25 e17d4bde 2017-01-20 alex Closes #231.
27 479d7d99 2017-01-08 alex ngIRCd 24~rc1 (2017-01-07)
28 479d7d99 2017-01-08 alex - Enhance systemd service file, and install it in Debian package.
29 479d7d99 2017-01-08 alex - Update configuration of Debian package.
30 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex - Log privilege violations and failed OPER request with log level "error"
31 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex and send it to the "&SERVER" channel, too.
32 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex - Immediately shut down connection when receiving an "ERROR" command,
33 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex don't wait for the peer to close the connection. This allows the daemon
34 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex to forward the received "ERROR" message in the network, instead of the
35 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex very generic "client closed connection" message.
36 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex - Fix sending of entry duration (no negative values!) when synchronizing
37 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex "x-lines" (G-LINES).
38 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex - List expiration (G-LINES): use same log level as when setting, and log
39 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex this event to the &SERVER channel, too.
40 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex - Explicitly forbid remote servers to modify "x-lines" (G-LINES) when the
41 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex "AllowRemoteOper" configuration option isn't set, even when the command
42 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex seems to originate from the remote server itself: this prevents GLINE's
43 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex to become set during server handshake in this case (what wouldn't be
44 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex possible during regular runtime when a remote IRC Op sends the command)
45 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex and what can't be undone by IRC Ops later on (because of the missing
46 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex "AllowRemoteOper" option) ...
47 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex - Make scripts and init-files in ./contrib executable.
48 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex - Fix building ngIRCd with OpenSSL 1.1. Thanks to Christoph Biedl
49 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex <ngircd.anoy@manchmal.in-ulm.de> for the patch!
50 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex - Fix code indentation warnings of gcc 6.2.
51 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex - Update config.guess (2016-04-02) and config.sub (2016-03-30) files.
52 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex - Fix warnings of the "shellcheck" linter in autogen.sh, contrib/ngindent
53 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex and contrib/platformtest.sh.
54 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex - Update Xcode project for latest Xcode version (8.0), and fix "duplicate
55 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex symbols" error messages when building (linking) the binary.
56 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex - Add "Documentation" variables to systemd configuration files.
57 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex - Make sure that SYSCONFDIR is always set, which can be handy when
58 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex using source code linters when ./configure hasn't been run already.
59 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex - Add the new "PAMServiceName" configuration option to specify the name
60 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex used as PAM service name. This setting allows to run multiple ngIRCd
61 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex instances with different PAM configurations for each instance.
62 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex Thanks to Christian Aistleitner <christian@quelltextlich.at> for the
63 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex patch, closes #226.
64 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex - Add an ".editorconfig" file to the project.
65 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex - Travis-CI: use "container-based infrastructure".
66 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex - Limit the number of message targets, and suppress duplicates: This
67 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex prevents an user from flooding the server using commands like this:
68 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex "PRIVMSG nick1,nick1,nick1,...".
69 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex Duplicate targets are suppressed silently (channels and clients).
70 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex In addition, the maximum number of targets per PRIVMSG, NOTICE, ...
71 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex command are limited to MAX_HNDL_TARGETS (25). If there are more, the
72 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex daemon sends the new 407 (ERR_TOOMANYTARGETS_MSG) numeric, containing
73 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex the first target that hasn't been handled any more. Closes #187.
74 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex - Test suite: Add new test for server-server logins.
75 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex - contrib/ngindent: Fix shebang line.
76 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex - Make contrib/platformtest.sh script more portable, and only show
77 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex "runs=Y" when the test suite really has been passed successfully.
78 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex - Code cleanup in the NJON handler and the function killing clients as
79 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex well as the function sending messages to a "mask" (cleaner code, more
80 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex fault tolerant, better code comments).
81 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex - Update and enhance documentation: README file, doc/Platforms.txt,
82 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex doc/Modes.txt, doc/Commands.txt, doc/PAM.txt.
83 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex - Fix NJOIN not propagating "half ops" status: ngIRCd tested for the wrong
84 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex prefix of "half ops" when processing NJOIN commands and therefore never
85 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex classified a remote user as "half op".
86 3e447384 2016-12-10 alex Thanks to wowaname for pointing this out on #ngircd!
88 f2cef85f 2015-11-16 alex ngIRCd 23 (2015-11-16)
90 6ed59a85 2015-11-15 alex - Explicitly cast time_t to long when printing it out: this prevents
91 6ed59a85 2015-11-15 alex wrong sized data types on platforms where time_t doesn't equal a
92 6ed59a85 2015-11-15 alex long any more, for example on OpenBSD (which would result in garbled
93 6ed59a85 2015-11-15 alex output on those platforms).
94 6ed59a85 2015-11-15 alex - contrib/Debian/changelog: Fix email address.
95 6ed59a85 2015-11-15 alex - Documentation: Spelling fixes; update doc/Platforms.txt.
97 1e84b264 2015-09-06 alex ngIRCd 23~rc1 (2015-09-06)
98 4acf95ab 2015-09-03 alex - Add ".clang_complete" file, which is used by the "linter-clang" package
99 4acf95ab 2015-09-03 alex of the Atom editor, for example.
100 4acf95ab 2015-09-03 alex - Make server-to-server protocol more robust: ngIRCd now catches more
101 4acf95ab 2015-09-03 alex errors on the server-to-server (S2S) protocol that could crash the
102 4acf95ab 2015-09-03 alex daemon before. This hasn't been a real problem because the IRC S2S
103 4acf95ab 2015-09-03 alex protocol is "trusted" by design, but the behavior is much better now.
104 4acf95ab 2015-09-03 alex Thanks to wowaname on #ngircd for pointing this out!
105 4acf95ab 2015-09-03 alex - Make platformtest.sh, autogen.sh, and ngircd.init more portable.
106 4acf95ab 2015-09-03 alex - Enables "reproducible builds" for ngIRCd: Use the optional BIRTHTIME
107 4acf95ab 2015-09-03 alex constant while building ngIRCd, which contains a time stamp for the
108 4acf95ab 2015-09-03 alex "Birth Date" information, in seconds since the epoch.
109 4acf95ab 2015-09-03 alex See <https://wiki.debian.org/ReproducibleBuilds>.
110 4acf95ab 2015-09-03 alex - Update "contrib/ngircd.service" file for systemd.
111 2c18e9a7 2015-08-07 alex - INSTALL: Add deprecation notice for "PredefChannelsOnly" variable.
112 2c18e9a7 2015-08-07 alex - Use "NOTICE *" before registration instead of "NOTICE AUTH". "AUTH" is
113 2c18e9a7 2015-08-07 alex a valid nickname so sending notices to it is probably not a good idea.
114 2c18e9a7 2015-08-07 alex Use "*" as the target instead as done with numerics when the nick is not
115 cb3a4321 2015-09-06 alex available. This mimics the behavior in Charybdis, IRCD-Hybrid, InspIRCd
116 2c18e9a7 2015-08-07 alex 2.2, Plexus 4, etc. Closes #217.
117 2c18e9a7 2015-08-07 alex The "NoticeAuth" configuration variable (ngircd.conf) has been renamed
118 2c18e9a7 2015-08-07 alex to "NoticeBeforeRegistration" accordingly, but the old name is still
119 2c18e9a7 2015-08-07 alex supported for compatibility reasons.
120 2c18e9a7 2015-08-07 alex - Implement new channel mode "N" (regular users can't change their nick
121 2c18e9a7 2015-08-07 alex name while on this channel). Closes #214.
122 2c18e9a7 2015-08-07 alex - README, AUTHORS: Update mailing list and issue tracker URLs.
123 2c18e9a7 2015-08-07 alex - Remove doc/GIT.txt (it is outdated), update doc/Contributing.txt:
124 2c18e9a7 2015-08-07 alex ngIRCd uses GitHub, and Git itself is quite common today. So don't
125 2c18e9a7 2015-08-07 alex include an own Git "mini HowTo" any longer.
126 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex - Specify session context for OpenSSL clients. This enables some OpenSSL
127 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex clients, including Pidgin and stunnel 5.06, to reuse a session.
128 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex Patch by Tom Ryder <tom@sanctum.geek.nz>, thanks! Closes #182.
129 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex - Keep track of who placed bans, invites, and excepts.
130 cb3a4321 2015-09-06 alex Idea and implementation by LucentW, Thanks! Closes #203.
131 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex - Make setgroups(3) function optional: For example, Interix is missing
132 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex this function, which prevented ngIRCd to build on this platform. When
133 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex setgroups(3) isn't available, a warning message is issued on startup.
134 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex - Implement numeric RPL_LISTSTART(321). lightIRC and other clients
135 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex expecting RPL_LISTSTART should now behave correctly.
136 cb3a4321 2015-09-06 alex Idea and implementation by LucentW, Thanks! Closes #207.
137 cb3a4321 2015-09-06 alex - Update ngircd.conf.5: "CloakUserToNick" hides user _and_ real name.
138 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex This closes #208.
139 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex - Fix case insensitive pattern matching: Up to now, only the the input
140 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex string became lowercased and was then compared to the pattern -- which
141 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex failed when the pattern itself wasn't all lowercase!
142 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex - Streamline the effect of "MorePrivacy" option: Update documentation
143 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex in ngircd.conf(5); don't hide channels for IRC Ops on LIST and don't
144 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex hide IP addresses/hostnames on WHOIS when "MorePrivacy" is in effect.
145 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex This closes #198.
146 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex - IRC operators now can kick anyone when "OperCanMode" is set.
147 cb3a4321 2015-09-06 alex Idea and implementation by LucentW, Thanks! Closes #202.
148 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex - Implement user mode "I": Hide channels on WHOIS: this mode prevents
149 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex ngIRCd from showing channels on WHOIS (IRC Operators can always see
150 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex the channel list).
151 cb3a4321 2015-09-06 alex Idea and implementation by LucentW, Thanks! Closes #197.
152 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex - INVITE command: Implement ERR_USERNOTONSERV(504) numeric and make sure
153 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex that the target user is on the same server when inviting other users
154 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex to local ("&") channels.
155 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex Idea by Cahata, thanks! Closes #183.
156 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex - INVITE command: Enforce 1 second penalty time, which prevents flooding
157 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex of the target client.
158 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex This closes #186. Reported by Cahata, thanks!
159 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex - MODE command: Always report channel creation time. Up to now when
160 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex receiving a MODE command, ngIRCd only reported the channel creation
161 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex time to clients that were members of the channel. This patch reports
162 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex the channel creation time to all clients, regardless if they are joined
163 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex to that channel or not. At least ircd-seven behaves like this.
164 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex This closes #188. Reported by Cahata, thanks!
165 c364d67f 2015-07-19 alex - Update Xcode project for latest Xcode version (6.3).
167 03e65680 2015-04-06 alex ngIRCd 22.1 (2015-04-06)
169 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex - Update doc/Platforms.txt and doc/FAQ.txt.
170 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex - Fix spelling of RPL_WHOISBOT message text.
171 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex - Don't send nick name as default PART reason: No other IRC daemon seems
172 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex to do this (today?). Closes #185.
173 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex Reported by Cahata in #ngircd, thanks!
174 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex - Fix "WHO #<chan>" showing invisible users and hiding all visible, the
175 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex logic was reversed! This bug has been introduced by commit c74115f2,
176 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex "Simplify mode checking on channels and users within a channel", ngIRCd
177 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex releases 21, 21.1, and 22 are affected :-( Problem reported by Cahata
178 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex in #ngircd, Thanks!
179 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex - Fix typo in src/testsuite/README
180 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex - Auth PING: Fix our information text for manual sending of "PONG". Up to
181 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex now, ngIRCd doesn't send a valid IRC command at all, oops!
182 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex - Auth PING: Fix internal time stamp conversion and don't send a prefix in
183 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex our PING command. The prefix confuses WeeChat, at least, which doesn't
184 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex send an appropriate PONG in the case ...
185 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex Debugging and patch by "wowaname" on #ngircd, thanks!
186 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex - Fix syntax of ERR_LISTFULL_MSG(478) numeric. Pointed out by "wowaname"
187 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex in #ngircd, thanks!
188 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex - Enhance debug messages while sending CHANINFO commands.
189 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex - Reset "last try" timer when enabling a passive server. This results in
190 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex a new connection attempt as soon as possible.
191 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex - Change log message for "Can't resolve address" and for IP address
193 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex - doc/HowToRelease.txt: Add note about the bug tracker.
194 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex - Update "CipherList" to not enable SSLv3 by default. Idea, initial patch,
195 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex and testing by Christoph Biedl <ngircd.anoy@manchmal.in-ulm.de>.
196 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex - Change ngIRCd test suite not to use DNS lookups: Different operating
197 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex systems do behave quite differently when doing DNS lookups, for example
198 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex "127.0.0.1" sometimes resolves to "localhost" and sometimes to
199 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex "localhost.localdomain" (for example OpenBSD). And other OS resolve
200 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex "localhost" to the real host name (for example Cygwin). So not using
201 7dacc314 2015-04-06 alex DNS at all makes the test site much more portable.
203 7b585380 2014-10-11 alex ngIRCd 22 (2014-10-11)
205 74262a40 2014-10-06 alex - Match all list patterns case-insensitive: this affects the invite-,
206 74262a40 2014-10-06 alex ban-, and except lists, as well as G-Lines an K-Lines.
207 74262a40 2014-10-06 alex Problem pointed out by "wowaname" on #ngircd, thanks!
209 7d7eb735 2014-09-29 alex ngIRCd 22~rc1 (2014-09-29)
210 fa7fac88 2014-09-22 alex - Sync "except lists" between servers: Up to now, ban, invite, and G-Line
211 fa7fac88 2014-09-22 alex lists have been synced between servers while linking -- but obviously
212 fa7fac88 2014-09-22 alex nobody noticed that except list have been missing ever since. Until now.
213 fa7fac88 2014-09-22 alex Thanks to "j4jackj", who reported this issue in #ngircd.
214 fa7fac88 2014-09-22 alex - Allow longer user names (up to 63 characters) for authentication.
215 fa7fac88 2014-09-22 alex - Correctly check that a server has a valid hostname and port, thanks to
216 fa7fac88 2014-09-22 alex David Binderman <dcb314@hotmail.com> who reported this bug.
217 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex - Fix the function which generates complete "IRC masks" from user input,
218 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex don't destroy the source buffer and use all provided parts (nick, user,
219 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex host name). This fixes GLINEs/KLINEs from not working in some situations.
220 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex - Increase MAX_SERVERS from 16 to 64: There are installations out there
221 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex that would like to configure more than 16 links per server, so increase
222 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex this limit. Best would be to get rid of MAX_SERVERS altogether and make
223 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex if fully dynamic, but start with this quick and dirty hack ...
224 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex - Debian: Don't adjust path names that are correct by default and correctly
225 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex set and use "docdir".
226 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex - Update config.guess and config.sub to recent versions.
227 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex - Test suite/platformtest.sh: Detect when tests have been skipped.
228 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex - doc/Bopm.txt: Update "connregex" and "kline" for current ngIRCd.
229 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex - Allow "DefaultUserModes" to set all possible modes, including modes only
230 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex settable by IRC Operators.
231 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex - Spoofed prefixes: Really kill connection on non-server links.
232 967deeba 2014-10-07 alex - Implement user mode "F": "relaxed flood protection". Clients with mode
233 967deeba 2014-10-07 alex "F" set are allowed to rapidly send data to the daemon. This mode is only
234 967deeba 2014-10-07 alex settable by IRC Operators and can cause problems in the network -- so be
235 967deeba 2014-10-07 alex careful and only set it on "trusted" clients!
236 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex User mode "F" is used by Bahamut for this purpose, for example.
237 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex - Handle "throttling" in a single function: ngIRCd implements "command
238 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex throttling" and "bps throttling" (bytes per second). The states are
239 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex detected in different functions, Conn_Handler() and Read_Request(), but
240 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex handle the actual "throttling" in a common function: this enables us to
241 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex guarantee consistent behavior and to disable throttling for special
242 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex connections in only one place
243 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex - Use server password when PAM is compiled in but disabled.
244 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex - Streamline punctuation of log messages.
245 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex - Return ISUPPORT(005) numerics on "VERSION". This is how ircd-seven,
246 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex Charybdis, Hybrid, and InspIRCd behave, for example.
247 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex - configure: Only link "contrib/Debian" if it exists, which isn't the case
248 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex on "VPATH builds", for example.
249 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex - Show the account name in WHOIS. This uses the same numeric as Charybdis
250 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex and ircu families: WHOISLOGGEDIN(330).
251 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex - Pattern matching: Remove "range matching" in our pattern matching code
252 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex using the "[...]" syntax, because [ and ] are valid characters in nick
253 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex names and one has to quote them currently using the "\" character, which
254 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex is quite unexpected for users.
255 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex - platformtest.sh: New option "-x", don't regenerate build system and
256 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex allow using separate source and build trees.
257 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex - Test suite: explicitly enable glibc memory checking.
258 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex - Make "MODE -k" handling more robust and compatible, send "fake '*' key"
259 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex in all replies.
260 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex - Update configure.ng: ngIRCd requires GNU autoconf 2.61 for generating its
261 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex build system, so update the build system accordingly and implement all
262 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex changes that autoupdate(1) suggests: Update AC_PREREQ and AC_INIT, use
263 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex AC_LINK_IFELSE, AC_RUN_IFELSE, and AC_COMPILE_IFELSE, and remove
264 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex AC_TYPE_SIGNAL (we don't use RETSIGTYPE).
265 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex - portabtest: Actually test the functions snprintf(), strlcpy(), strlcat(),
266 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex and vsnprintf() for correctness, not only existence (which was quite
267 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex useless, because if they weren't available, the program could not have
268 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex been linked at all ...).
269 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex - Implement new configuration option "Network": it is used to set the
270 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex (completely optional) "network name", to which this instance of the
271 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex daemon belongs. When set, this name is used in the ISUPPORT(005) numeric
272 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex which is sent to all clients connecting to the server after logging in.
273 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex - Update doc/Platforms.txt.
274 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex - Various code cleanups, remove unused code, streamline error handling.
275 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex Remove all imp.h and exp.h header files, support non-standard vsnprintf()
276 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex return codes, and fix some K&R C portability issues. Streamline
277 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex DEBUG_ARRAY, DEBUG_BUFFER, DEBUG_IO, DEBUG_ZIP definitions.
278 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex - Increase penalty time to 10 seconds when handling OPER commands with an
279 7893dc52 2014-09-04 alex invalid password.
281 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex ngIRCd 21.1 (2014-03-25)
283 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex - Don't ignore but use the server password when PAM is compiled in but
284 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex disabled. Thanks to Roy Sindre Norangshol <roy.sindre@norangshol.no>!
285 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex - doc/Platforms.txt: Update from master branch.
286 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex - Really kill connections that send "spoofed prefixes" on non-server links.
287 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex This fixes commit 6cbe1308 which only killed the connection when the
288 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex spoofed prefix itself belonged to a non-server client.
289 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex - CHARCONV command: Fix handling conversion errors, don't overwrite already
290 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex converted text!
291 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex - doc/Services.txt: Update information for Anope 2.x.
292 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex - Correctly use cloaked IRC masks on "INVITE nickname": The cloaked IRC mask
293 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex of a user is his visible mask, so the daemon has to use it for generating
294 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex the "one time" entries for the invite list of the given channel, and not
295 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex the "real" mask which will never match while the target client is "+x", and
296 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex even worse, will disclose the real mask on "MODE #channel +I" commands :-/
297 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex Bug reported by Cahata on #ngircd, thanks!
298 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex - configure: Only link "contrib/Debian" if it exists. This isn't the case on
299 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex "VPATH builds", for example.
300 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex - Use $(MKDIR_P) instead of $(mkinstalldirs) in Makefile's and test for
301 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex "mkdir -p" using AC_PROG_MKDIR_P in "configure".
302 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex - Fix configure script and "make check" for TCP Wrappers (problems spotted on
303 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex OpenBSD): add missing #include's and static variables, and add libwrap at
304 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex the end of the configure run because if libwrap becomes added earlier,
305 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex other tests may fail.
306 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex - configure: add support for the LDFLAGS_END and LIBS_END variables to add
307 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex linker flags and libraries at the end of the configure run (CFLAGS_END has
308 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex been implemented already).
309 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex - platformtest.sh and Makefile.am: Don't use "test -e", it isn't portable.
310 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex - Update Copyright notices for 2014 :-)
311 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex - Fix permanent {G|K}LINES (with a timeout of 0 seconds).
312 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex - WEBIRC: Don't set the hostname received by the WEBIRC command when DNS
313 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex lookups are disabled, but use the IP address instead.
314 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex Reported by Toni Spets <toni.spets@iki.fi>, thanks!
315 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex - Check for working getaddrinfo() function: At least AIX 4.3.3 and 5.1 have a
316 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex broken implementation of getaddrinfo() which doesn't handle "0" as numeric
317 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex service correctly. This patch adds a configure check for this case and
318 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex changes all calling functions to only use getaddrinfo() if it "works".
319 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex See <http://www.stacken.kth.se/lists/heimdal-discuss/2004-05/msg00059.html>
320 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex - Only use the unsetenv() function when it is available (AIX 4.3 doesn't
321 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex support it, for example).
322 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex - Make sure that the source code is still compatible with the "ansi2knr" tool
323 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex and builds using non-ANSI K&R C compilers. Tested with Apple C on A/UX.
324 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex - Fix building ngIRCd without support for ZLIB compression. Reported by
325 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex "der_baer" on #ngircd, thanks!
327 94148c37 2013-10-30 alex ngIRCd 21 (2013-10-30)
329 94148c37 2013-10-30 alex - ./contrib/Debian/ngircd.init: Make sure no stale PID file is left over
330 94148c37 2013-10-30 alex when (re-)starting ngIRCd.
331 94148c37 2013-10-30 alex - Change ./contrib/platformtest.sh and update ./doc/Platforms.txt to
332 cdd6b961 2014-03-25 alex allow user names up to 8 characters.
333 94148c37 2013-10-30 alex - Call arc4random_stir() in forked subprocesses, when available. This
334 94148c37 2013-10-30 alex is required by FreeBSD <10 and current NetBSD at least to correctly
335 94148c37 2013-10-30 alex initialize the "arc4" random number generator on these platforms.
336 94148c37 2013-10-30 alex - Update our own Debian package configuration and fix the default path
337 94148c37 2013-10-30 alex of the "HelpFile" of the "full" package variants.
339 94148c37 2013-10-30 alex ngIRCd 21~rc2 (2013-10-20)
340 788b3002 2013-10-20 alex - Report the correct configuration file name on configuration errors,
341 788b3002 2013-10-20 alex support longer configuration lines, and warn when lines are truncated.
342 788b3002 2013-10-20 alex - Use arc4random() function to generate "random" numbers, when available.
343 788b3002 2013-10-20 alex - platformtest.sh: Detect clang compiler, and clean up GIT source tree
344 788b3002 2013-10-20 alex before building (when possible).
345 788b3002 2013-10-20 alex - Update (date of) manual pages.
346 788b3002 2013-10-20 alex - Update "Upgrade Information" in INSTALL file, add more systems to
347 788b3002 2013-10-20 alex doc/Platforms.txt, and fix spelling in NEWS and ChangeLog files =:)
348 788b3002 2013-10-20 alex - Fix remaining compiler warnings on OpenBSD.
350 788b3002 2013-10-20 alex ngIRCd 21~rc1 (2013-10-05)
351 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex - Actually KILL clients on GLINE/KLINE. (Closes bug #156)
352 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex - Adjust log messages for invalid and spoofed prefixes, which cleans up
353 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex logging of commands related to already KILL'ed clients. And don't
354 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex forward KILL commands for (already) unknown clients any more to prevent
355 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex unnecessary duplicates.
356 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex - Add support to show all user links using the "STATS L" (uppercase)
357 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex command (restricted to IRC Operators).
358 56da86b4 2013-10-07 alex - Fixed blocking of server reconnects in some error configurations.
359 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex - Don't ignore SSL-related errors during startup any more: abort startup
360 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex when SSL is requested by the configuration but can't be initialized and
361 56da86b4 2013-10-07 alex don't continue only listening on plain text communication ports.
362 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex (Closes bug #163)
363 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex - Implement configurable SSL cipher list selection for GnuTLS and OpenSSL
364 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex using the new configuration option "CipherList". In addition, this
365 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex changes the defaults to more secure values: "HIGH:!aNULL:@STRENGTH" for
366 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex OpenSSL, and "SECURE128" for GnuTLS.
367 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex - Fix "TRACE": Correctly return ERR_NEEDMOREPARAMS(461) (which basically
368 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex is "syntax error") when there are too many parameters.
369 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex - Clean up lots of permission and parameter checks in functions handling
370 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex IRC commands; and more consistently add penalty times on errors.
371 56da86b4 2013-10-07 alex - Fix error numeric of WHOIS when no nick name has been provided:
372 56da86b4 2013-10-07 alex as per RFC it should be ERR_NONICKNAMEGIVEN(431).
373 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex - Only log "IDENT ... no result" messages when an IDENT looked took place
374 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex and didn't return any data, not when IDENT has been disabled.
375 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex - Show connection flag "s" (SSL) in RPL_TRACE{LINK|SERVER} messages: now
376 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex you can check if a server-to-server link is SSL-encrypted or not using
377 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex the IRC "TRACE" command.
378 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex - Correctly discard supplementary groups on server startup.
379 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex - Save client IP address text for "WebIRC" users and correctly display
380 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex it on WHOIS, for example. (Closes bug #159)
381 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex - Implement the new configuration option "DefaultUserModes" which lists
382 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex user modes that become automatically set on new local clients right
383 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex after login. Please note that only modes can be set that the client
384 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex could set on itself, so you can't set "a" (away) or "o" (IRC Op),
385 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex for example! User modes "i" (invisible) or "x" (cloaked) etc. are
386 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex "interesting", though. (Closes bug #160)
387 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex - Add support for the new METADATA "account" property, which allows
388 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex services to automatically identify users after netsplits and across
389 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex service restarts.
390 212d9914 2013-08-20 alex - Enforce "penalty times" on error conditions more consistently and in
391 212d9914 2013-08-20 alex more places. Now most error codes sent back from the IRC server to the
392 212d9914 2013-08-20 alex client should result in a 2 second "penalty".
393 bd0de15d 2013-08-06 alex - Implement a new configuration option "AllowedChannelTypes" that lists
394 bd0de15d 2013-08-06 alex all allowed channel types (channel prefixes) for newly created channels
395 bd0de15d 2013-08-06 alex on the local server. By default, all supported channel types are allowed.
396 bd0de15d 2013-08-06 alex If set to the empty string, local clients can't create new channels at
397 bd0de15d 2013-08-06 alex all, which equals the old "PredefChannelsOnly = yes" setting.
398 bd0de15d 2013-08-06 alex This change deprecates the "PredefChannelsOnly" variable, too, but it is
399 1b349b05 2013-10-07 alex still supported and translated to the appropriate "AllowedChannelTypes"
400 bd0de15d 2013-08-06 alex setting. When the old "PredefChannelsOnly" variable is processed, a
401 bd0de15d 2013-08-06 alex warning message is logged. (Closes bug #152)
402 bd0de15d 2013-08-06 alex - Add support for "client certificate fingerprinting". When a client
403 bd0de15d 2013-08-06 alex passes an SSL certificate to the server, the "fingerprint" will be
404 bd0de15d 2013-08-06 alex forwarded in the network which enables IRC services to identify the
405 bd0de15d 2013-08-06 alex user using this certificate and not using passwords.
406 bd0de15d 2013-08-06 alex - IRC Operator names, as defined in ngircd.conf, are logged now when
407 bd0de15d 2013-08-06 alex handling successful OPER commands.
408 bd0de15d 2013-08-06 alex - Some error conditions while handling IRC commands, like "permission
409 bd0de15d 2013-08-06 alex denied" or "need more parameters", result in more penalty times.
410 11240376 2013-06-04 alex - The numeric replies of some commands became split too early which
411 11240376 2013-06-04 alex resulted in more numeric reply lines than necessary.
412 11240376 2013-06-04 alex - Implement a new configuration option "IncludeDir" in the "[Options]"
413 11240376 2013-06-04 alex section that can be used to specify a directory which can contain
414 11240376 2013-06-04 alex further configuration files and configuration file snippets matching
415 11240376 2013-06-04 alex the pattern "*.conf". These files are read in after the main server
416 11240376 2013-06-04 alex configuration file ("ngircd.conf" by default) has been read in and
417 11240376 2013-06-04 alex parsed. The default is "$SYSCONFDIR/ngircd.conf.d", so that it is
418 11240376 2013-06-04 alex possible to adjust the configuration only by placing additional files
419 11240376 2013-06-04 alex into this directory. (Closes bug #157)
420 11240376 2013-06-04 alex - Fix use-after-free in the Lists_CheckReason() function, which is used
421 11240376 2013-06-04 alex to check if a client is a member of a particular ban/invite/... list.
422 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex - Xcode: fix detection of host OS, vendor, and CPU type, and update
423 9b1fee89 2013-10-02 alex project settings for Xcode 5.
424 11240376 2013-06-04 alex - OS X PackageMaker: use relative path names in project files and package
425 11240376 2013-06-04 alex with correct file permissions (requires root privileges on "make").
426 11240376 2013-06-04 alex - Add Travis-CI configuration file (".travis.yml") to project.
427 56da86b4 2013-10-07 alex - Look for possible cloaked Masks in Lists. Users with +x user mode can
428 11240376 2013-06-04 alex be banned with their cloaked hostname now.
429 11240376 2013-06-04 alex - Don't read SSL client data before DNS resolver is finished which could
430 11240376 2013-06-04 alex have resulted in discarding the resolved client hostname and IDENT
431 11240376 2013-06-04 alex reply afterwards, because in some situations (timing dependent) the
432 11240376 2013-06-04 alex NICK and USER commands could have already been read in from the client,
433 11240376 2013-06-04 alex stored in the buffer, and been processed.
434 11240376 2013-06-04 alex Thanks to Julian Brost for reporting the issue and testing, and to
435 11240376 2013-06-04 alex Federico G. Schwindt <fgsch@lodoss.net> for helping to debug it!
436 11240376 2013-06-04 alex - Increase password length limit to 64 characters. (Closes bug #154)
437 11240376 2013-06-04 alex - doc/Services.txt: Update Anope status and URL.
438 11240376 2013-06-04 alex - Clean up Xcode project file, remove outdated files, add missing ones.
439 11240376 2013-06-04 alex - Update Doxygen configuration file.
440 11240376 2013-06-04 alex - configure: search for iconv_open as well as libiconv_open, because
441 11240376 2013-06-04 alex on some installations iconv_open() is actually libiconv_open().
442 11240376 2013-06-04 alex iconv_open() is the glibc version while libiconv_open() is the
443 11240376 2013-06-04 alex libiconv version, now both variants are supported. (Closes bug #151)
444 11240376 2013-06-04 alex - ngIRCd now accepts user names including "@" characters, saves the
445 11240376 2013-06-04 alex unmodified name for authentication but stores only the part in front
446 11240376 2013-06-04 alex of the "@" character as "IRC user name". And the latter is how
447 11240376 2013-06-04 alex ircd2.11, Bahamut, and irc-seven behave as well. (Closes bug #155)
448 11240376 2013-06-04 alex - Lots of IRC "information functions" like ADMIN, INFO, ... now accept
449 11240376 2013-06-04 alex server masks and names of connected users (in addition to server names)
450 11240376 2013-06-04 alex for specifying the target server of the command. (Closes bug #153)
451 11240376 2013-06-04 alex - Implement a new configuration option "IdleTimeout" in the "[Limits]"
452 11240376 2013-06-04 alex section of the configuration file which can be used to set a timeout
453 11240376 2013-06-04 alex in seconds after which the whole daemon will shutdown when no more
454 11240376 2013-06-04 alex connections are left active after handling at least one client.
455 11240376 2013-06-04 alex The default is 0, "never".
456 11240376 2013-06-04 alex This can be useful for testing or when ngIRCd is started using "socket
457 11240376 2013-06-04 alex activation" with systemd(8), for example.
458 11240376 2013-06-04 alex - Implement support for systemd(8) "socket activation".
459 11240376 2013-06-04 alex - contrib/README: add description for more files.
460 11240376 2013-06-04 alex - Enable WHOIS to display information about IRC Services using the new
461 11240376 2013-06-04 alex numeric 310(RPL_WHOISSERVICE) This numeric is used for this purpose by
462 11240376 2013-06-04 alex InspIRCd, for example -- but as usual, other numerics are in use, too,
463 11240376 2013-06-04 alex like 613 in UltimateIRCd ...
464 11240376 2013-06-04 alex Please note that neither the Operator (+o) not the "bot status" (+B)
465 1b349b05 2013-10-07 alex of an IRC service is displayed in the output.
466 11240376 2013-06-04 alex - Exit message: use singular & plural :-)
467 bd0de15d 2013-08-06 alex - autogen.sh: Check for autoconf/automake wrapper scripts
468 212d9914 2013-08-20 alex - Add missing punctuation marks in log messages, adjust some severity
469 212d9914 2013-08-20 alex levels, and make SSL-related messages more readable.
470 11240376 2013-06-04 alex - AUTHORS file: Update list of contributors.
471 11240376 2013-06-04 alex - Update systemd(8) example configuration files in ./contrib/ directory:
472 11240376 2013-06-04 alex the "ngircd.service" file now uses the "forking" service type which
473 11240376 2013-06-04 alex enhances the log messages shown by "systemctl status ngircd.service",
474 11240376 2013-06-04 alex and the new "ngircd.socket" file configures a systemd socket that
475 11240376 2013-06-04 alex configures a socket for ngIRCd and launches the daemon on demand.
476 11240376 2013-06-04 alex - Enhance help system and the HELP command: now a "help text file" can be
477 11240376 2013-06-04 alex set using the new configuration option "HelpFile" ("global" section),
478 11240376 2013-06-04 alex which is read in and parsed on server startup and configuration reload,
479 11240376 2013-06-04 alex and then is used to output individual help texts to specific topics.
480 11240376 2013-06-04 alex Please see the file ./doc/Commands.txt for details.
482 6dc5471a 2013-08-23 alex ngIRCd 20.3 (2013-08-23)
484 6dc5471a 2013-08-23 alex - Security: Fix a denial of service bug (server crash) which could happen
485 6dc5471a 2013-08-23 alex when the configuration option "NoticeAuth" is enabled (which is NOT the
486 6dc5471a 2013-08-23 alex default) and ngIRCd failed to send the "notice auth" messages to new
487 6dc5471a 2013-08-23 alex clients connecting to the server (CVE-2013-5580).
489 25b19e08 2013-02-15 alex ngIRCd 20.2 (2013-02-15)
491 25b19e08 2013-02-15 alex - Security: Fix a denial of service bug in the function handling KICK
492 11240376 2013-06-04 alex commands that could be used by arbitrary users to to crash the daemon
493 11240376 2013-06-04 alex (CVE-2013-1747).
494 25b19e08 2013-02-15 alex - WHO command: Use the currently "displayed hostname" (which can be cloaked!)
495 25b19e08 2013-02-15 alex for hostname matching, not the real one. In other words: don't display all
496 25b19e08 2013-02-15 alex the cloaked users on a specific real hostname!
497 25b19e08 2013-02-15 alex - configure: The header file "netinet/in_systm.h" already is optional in
498 25b19e08 2013-02-15 alex ngIRCd, so don't require it in the configure script. Now ngIRCd can be
499 25b19e08 2013-02-15 alex built on Minix 3 again :-)
500 25b19e08 2013-02-15 alex - Return better "Connection not registered as server link" errors: Now ngIRCd
501 25b19e08 2013-02-15 alex returns a more specific error message for numeric ERR_NOTREGISTERED(451)
502 25b19e08 2013-02-15 alex when a regular user tries to use a command that isn't allowed for users but
503 25b19e08 2013-02-15 alex for servers.
504 25b19e08 2013-02-15 alex - Don't report ERR_NEEDMOREPARAMS(461) when a MDOE command with more modes
505 25b19e08 2013-02-15 alex than nicknames is handled, as well as for channel limit and key changes
506 25b19e08 2013-02-15 alex without specifying the limit or key parameters.
507 25b19e08 2013-02-15 alex This is how a lot (all?) other IRC servers behave, including ircd2.11,
508 25b19e08 2013-02-15 alex InspIRCd, and ircd-seven. And because of clients (tested with Textual and
509 25b19e08 2013-02-15 alex mIRC) sending bogus MODE commands like "MODE -ooo nick", end-users got the
510 25b19e08 2013-02-15 alex expected result as well as correct but misleading error messages ...
511 25b19e08 2013-02-15 alex - Correctly detect when SSL subsystem must be initialized and take
512 25b19e08 2013-02-15 alex outgoing connections (server links!) into account, too.
513 25b19e08 2013-02-15 alex - autogen.sh: Enforce serial test harness on GNU automake >=1.13. The
514 25b19e08 2013-02-15 alex new parallel test harness which is enabled by default starting with
515 25b19e08 2013-02-15 alex automake 1.13 isn't compatible with our test suite.
516 11240376 2013-06-04 alex And don't use "egrep -o", instead use "sed", because it isn't portable
517 25b19e08 2013-02-15 alex and not available on OpenBSD, for example.
519 21493731 2013-01-02 alex ngIRCd 20.1 (2013-01-02)
521 21493731 2013-01-02 alex - Allow ERROR command on server and service links only, ignore them and
522 21493731 2013-01-02 alex add a penalty time on all other link types.
523 21493731 2013-01-02 alex - Enforced mode setting by IRC Operators: Only check the channel user
524 21493731 2013-01-02 alex modes of the initiator if he is joined to the channel and not an IRC
525 21493731 2013-01-02 alex operator enforcing modes (which requires the configuration option
526 21493731 2013-01-02 alex "OperCanUseMode" to be enabled), because trying to check channel user
527 21493731 2013-01-02 alex modes of a non-member results in an assertion when running with debug
528 21493731 2013-01-02 alex code or could crash the daemon otherwise. This closes bug #147, thanks
529 21493731 2013-01-02 alex to James Kirwill <james.kirwill@bk.ru> for tracking this down!
530 21493731 2013-01-02 alex - Fix build system to cope with spaces in path names.
531 21493731 2013-01-02 alex - Code cleanups, mostly to fix build warnings on Cygwin.
533 25d35dd6 2012-12-17 alex ngIRCd 20 (2012-12-17)
535 a445abc1 2012-12-12 alex - Allow user names ("INDENT") up to 20 characters when ngIRCd has not
536 a445abc1 2012-12-12 alex been configured for "strict RFC mode". This is useful if you are using
537 11240376 2013-06-04 alex external (PAM) authentication mechanisms that require longer user names.
538 a445abc1 2012-12-12 alex Patch suggested by Brett Smith <brett@w3.org>, see
539 a445abc1 2012-12-12 alex <http://arthur.barton.de/pipermail/ngircd-ml/2012-October/000579.html>.
541 c6ae3537 2012-12-02 alex ngIRCd 20~rc2 (2012-12-02)
542 c6ae3537 2012-12-02 alex - Rework cloaked hostname handling and implement the "METADATA cloakhost"
543 c6ae3537 2012-12-02 alex subcommand: Now ngIRCd uses two fields internally, one to store the
544 c6ae3537 2012-12-02 alex "real" hostname and one to save the "cloaked" hostname. This allows
545 c6ae3537 2012-12-02 alex "foreign servers" (aka "IRC services") to alter the real and cloaked
546 c6ae3537 2012-12-02 alex hostnames of clients without problems, even when the user itself issues
547 c6ae3537 2012-12-02 alex additional "MODE +x" and "MODE -x" commands.
548 c6ae3537 2012-12-02 alex - RPL_UMODEIS: send correct target name, even on server links.
549 c6ae3537 2012-12-02 alex - Update platformtest.sh to follow autoconf changes and only generate
550 c6ae3537 2012-12-02 alex the "configure" script when it is missing.
551 c6ae3537 2012-12-02 alex - Fix the test suite to correctly execute test scripts even when stdout
552 c6ae3537 2012-12-02 alex is redirected.
553 c6ae3537 2012-12-02 alex - Fix some compiler warnings on NetBSD and OpenBSD.
555 0a26079a 2012-11-11 alex ngIRCd 20~rc1 (2012-11-11)
556 4185c4a4 2012-11-10 alex - Update doc/Services.txt: describe the upcoming version of Anope 1.9.8,
557 4185c4a4 2012-11-10 alex then including a protocol module for ngIRCd. And remove our own patches
558 4185c4a4 2012-11-10 alex in ./contrib/Anope because they aren't supported any more ...
559 4185c4a4 2012-11-10 alex - Implement new "METADATA" command which can be used by remote servers
560 4185c4a4 2012-11-10 alex and IRC services to update client metadata like the client info text
561 4185c4a4 2012-11-10 alex ("real name"), user name, and hostname, and use this command to
562 4185c4a4 2012-11-10 alex configure an cloaked hostname (user mode "+x") on remote servers:
563 4185c4a4 2012-11-10 alex This prevents "double cloaking" of hostnames and even cloaked
564 4185c4a4 2012-11-10 alex hostnames are in sync on all servers supporting "METADATA" now.
565 4185c4a4 2012-11-10 alex - Fix error message when trying to join non-predefined channels and the
566 4185c4a4 2012-11-10 alex "PredefChannelsOnly" configuration option is set.
567 4185c4a4 2012-11-10 alex - Implement new IRC "SVSNICK" command to allow remote servers (and IRC
568 4185c4a4 2012-11-10 alex services) to change nicknames of already registered users. The SVSNICK
569 4185c4a4 2012-11-10 alex command itself doesn't change the nickname, but it becomes forwarded
570 4185c4a4 2012-11-10 alex to the server to which the user is connected to. And then this server
571 4185c4a4 2012-11-10 alex initiates the real nickname changing using regular NICK commands.
572 4185c4a4 2012-11-10 alex This allows to run mixed networks with old servers not supporting the
573 4185c4a4 2012-11-10 alex SVSNICK command, because SVSNICK commands for nicknames on such servers
574 4185c4a4 2012-11-10 alex are silently ignored and don't cause a desynchronization of the network.
575 4185c4a4 2012-11-10 alex - Make server reconnect time a little bit more random, so that two
576 4185c4a4 2012-11-10 alex servers trying to connect to each other asynchronously don't try this
577 4185c4a4 2012-11-10 alex in exactly the same time periods and kick each other off ...
578 4185c4a4 2012-11-10 alex - Don't accept connections for servers already being linked: there was a
579 4185c4a4 2012-11-10 alex time frame that could result in one connection overwriting the other,
580 4185c4a4 2012-11-10 alex e. g. the incoming connection overwriting the status of the outgoing
581 4185c4a4 2012-11-10 alex one. And this could lead to all kind of weirdness (even crashes!) later
582 4185c4a4 2012-11-10 alex on: now such incoming connections are dropped.
583 8ff153d7 2012-10-28 alex - New configuration option "MaxListSize" to configure the maximum number
584 8ff153d7 2012-10-28 alex of channels returned by a LIST command. The default is 100, as before.
585 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Implement user mode "b", "block messages": when a user has set mode "b",
586 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex all private messages and notices to this user are blocked if they don't
587 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex originate from a registered user, an IRC Op, server or service. The
588 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex originator gets an error numeric sent back in this case,
589 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex ERR_NONONREG_MSG (486), which is used by UnrealIRCd, too. (Closes #144)
590 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - WHOIS: Not only show RPL_WHOISHOST_MSG to local IRC operators, but show
591 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex it to all IRC operators in the network. And don't show it to anybody if
592 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex the "more privacy" configuration option is enabled. (Closes #134)
593 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Test suite: make expect scripts more verbose displaying dots for each
594 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex reply of the server that it is waiting for.
595 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - WHOIS: Implement numeric RPL_WHOISMODES_MSG (379) and show user modes in
596 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex the reply of the WHOIS command for the user himself or, if MorePrivacy
597 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex isn't set, for request initiated by an IRC operator. (Closes #129)
598 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Implement channel mode "V" (invite disallow): If the new channel mode
599 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex "V" is set, the INVITE command becomes invalid and all clients get the
600 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex new ERR_NOINVITE_MSG (518) reply. (Closes #143)
601 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - KICK-protect IRC services.
602 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Implement channel mode "Q" and user mode "q": Both modes protect users
603 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex from channel kicks: only IRC operators and servers can kick users having
604 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex mode "q" or in channels with mode "Q". (Closes #141)
605 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Debian: require "telnet" or "telnet-ssl" for building and enable
606 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex CHARCONV in ngircd-full[-dbg] variants.
607 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Send RPL_REHASHING (382) numeric if a REHASH command was accepted.
608 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Fix spelling and variable names in some log messages.
609 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Allow users to "cloak" their hostname only when the configuration
610 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex variable "CloakHostModeX" (introduced in 19.2) is set. Otherwise, only
611 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex IRC operators, other servers, and services are allowed to set the user
612 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex mode "+x": this prevents regular users from changing their hostmask to
613 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex the name of the IRC server itself, which confused quite a few people ;-)
614 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex (Closes #133)
615 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - New configuration option "OperChanPAutoOp": If disabled, IRC operators
616 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex don't become channel operators in persistent channels when joining.
617 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex Enabled by default, which has been the behavior of ngIRCd up to this
618 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex patch. (Closes #135)
619 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Allow IRC operators to see secret (+s) channels in LIST command as long
620 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex as the "MorePrivacy" configuration option isn't enabled in the
621 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex configuration file. (Closes #136)
622 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Enhance build system: Support new (>=1.12) and old (<=1.11) GNU automake
623 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex versions, update checks for required and optional features, enable
624 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex colored test output of automake (if available), rename configure.in to
625 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex more modern configure.ac, include .mailmap and all build-system files in
626 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex distribution archives and no longer require a GIT tree to detect the
627 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex correct version string.
628 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Update documentation: add doc/Contributing.txt and include version
629 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex numbers in doc/Modes.txt.
630 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Free all listen ports on initialization: now listen ports can be
631 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex reconfigured on runtime using a configuration reload.
632 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Initialize SSL when needed only, and disable SSL on errors.
633 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Implement new (optional) IRC+ "CHARCONV" command to set a client
634 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex character set that the server translates all messages to/from UTF-8.
635 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex This feature requires the "libiconv" library and must be enabled using
636 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex the new "--with-iconv" option of the ./configure script. See
637 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex doc/Protocol.txt for details. (Closes #109)
638 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Allow limited punctuation in usernames, for better PAM integration.
639 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Correctly re-initialize signal handlers on RESTART commands.
640 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Show a warning on startup if the configuration file is not a full path:
641 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex ngIRCd is a long-running process and changes its working directory to
642 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex "/" to not block mounted filesystems and the like when running as daemon
643 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex ("not in the foreground"); therefore the path to the configuration file
644 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex must be relative to "/" (or the chroot() directory), which basically is
645 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex "not relative", to ensure that "kill -HUP" and the "REHASH" command work
646 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex as expected later on. (Closes #127)
647 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Make the "&SERVER" channel definable in a [Channel] configuration block,
648 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex which enables server operators to overwrite the built-in topic and
649 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex channel modes. (Closes #131)
650 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Don't limit list size of "WHO #channel" commands, because it makes no
651 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex sense to not return all the users in that channel, so I removed the
652 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex check. But if there are more than MAX_RPL_WHO(25) replies, the client
653 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex requesting the list will be "penalized" one second more, then 2 in
654 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex total. (Closes #125)
655 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Make ngIRCd buildable using the kqueue() IO interface on FreeBSD 4.x.
656 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Fix the "NoticeAuth" configuration option when using SSL connections and
657 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex enhance the message to show the hostname and IDENT reply of the client.
658 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Introduce numeric RPL_HOSTHIDDEN_MSG (396): This numeric is sent to the
659 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex client each time it changes its displayed hostname using "MODE +/-x",
660 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex and if "CloakHost" is set right after the MOTD has been sent.
661 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Fix USERHOST not displaying the correctly cloaked hostname.
662 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Implement user mode "B" ("Bot flag"): it is settable and unsettable by
663 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex every (non-restricted) client. This is how Unreal and InspIRCd do
664 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex behave, and so do we :-)
665 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Dynamically allocate memory for connection passwords: This a) saves
666 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex memory for clients not using passwords at all and b) allows for
667 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex "arbitrarily" long passwords.
668 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Implement channel mode "M": Only the server, identified users and IRC
669 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex operators are able to talk in such a channel.
670 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Block nicknames that are reserved for services and are defined using the
671 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex configuration variable "ServiceMask" in "Server" blocks; And this
672 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex variable now can handle more than one mask separated by commas.
673 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Now "make uninstall" removes the installed "ngircd.conf" file, if it is
674 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex still equal to our "sample-ngircd.conf" file and therefore hasn't been
675 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex modified by the user. If it has been modified, it isn't removed and a
676 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex notice is displayed to the user. And "make install" now displays a
677 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex message when no ngircd.conf file exists and the "sample-ngircd.conf"
678 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex file will be installed as a starting point.
679 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Add contrib/ngircd.service, a systemd service file for ngircd.
680 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Implemented XOP channel user modes: "Half Op" ("+h", prefix "%") can set
681 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex the channel modes +imntvIbek and kick all +v and normal users; "Admin"
682 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex ("+a", prefix "&") can set channel modes +imntvIbekoRsz and kick all +o,
683 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex +h, +v and normal users; and "Owner" ("+q", prefix "~") can set channel
684 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex modes +imntvIbekoRsz and kick all +a, +o, +h, +v and normal users.
685 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex - Implement hashed cloaked hostnames for both the "CloakHost" and
686 b53b12aa 2012-08-03 alex "CloakHostModeX" configuration options: now the admin can use the new
687 b53b12aa 2012-08-03 alex '%x' placeholder to insert a hashed version of the clients hostname,
688 b53b12aa 2012-08-03 alex and the new configuration option "CloakHostSalt" defines the salt for
689 b53b12aa 2012-08-03 alex the hash function. When "CloakHostSalt" is not set (the default), a
690 23572af9 2012-10-24 alex random salt will be generated after each server restart. (Closes #133)
692 2e931298 2013-10-31 alex ngIRCd 19.2 (2012-06-19)
694 b9e6cb3e 2012-06-19 alex - doc/Capabilities.txt: document "multi-prefix" capability
696 d7eb343e 2012-06-13 alex ngIRCd 19.2~rc1 (2012-06-13)
697 d7eb343e 2012-06-13 alex - New configuration option "CloakHostModeX" to configure the hostname
698 d7eb343e 2012-06-13 alex that gets used for IRC clients which have user mode "+x" enabled.
699 d7eb343e 2012-06-13 alex Up to now, the name of the IRC server itself has been used for this,
700 d7eb343e 2012-06-13 alex which still is the default when "CloakHostModeX" isn't set.
701 7bce6780 2012-06-09 alex - Correctly handle asynchronously re-established server links: a race
702 7bce6780 2012-06-09 alex condition could let the daemon loose track of an already re-established
703 7bce6780 2012-06-09 alex incoming server link while preparing its own outgoing connection.
704 7bce6780 2012-06-09 alex Peers that both try to connect each other could have been affected.
705 7bce6780 2012-06-09 alex - Log a debug message when SIGUSR2 is handled in debug mode.
706 7bce6780 2012-06-09 alex - Only allow alphanumeric characters in user-supplied user names of
707 7bce6780 2012-06-09 alex USER command and IDENT replies.
708 7bce6780 2012-06-09 alex - Change wording of "TLS initialized" message to make it more consistent.
709 7bce6780 2012-06-09 alex - Don't leak file descriptors on error path when creating "PID files".
710 7bce6780 2012-06-09 alex - Add missing mode "r" to CHANMODES in 005 "ISUPPORT" numeric.
711 7bce6780 2012-06-09 alex - Update doc/Modes.txt and doc/Platforms.txt documents.
712 7bce6780 2012-06-09 alex - contrib/platformtest.sh: correctly detect Open64 C compiler and handle
713 7bce6780 2012-06-09 alex "CC=xxx MAKE=yyy ./platformtest.sh" calling convention.
714 7bce6780 2012-06-09 alex - Add instructions for setting up Atheme IRC services.
715 7bce6780 2012-06-09 alex - Implement support for IRC capability handling, the new "CAP" command,
716 cb3a4321 2015-09-06 alex and capability "multi-prefix" which allows both the NAME and WHO command
717 7bce6780 2012-06-09 alex handlers to return more than one "class prefix" to the client.
718 7bce6780 2012-06-09 alex - Update Xcode project files: reference missing documentation files.
719 7bce6780 2012-06-09 alex - Fix: Don't ignore "permission denied" errors when enabling chroot.
720 7bce6780 2012-06-09 alex - FAQ: enhance description of chroot setup.
722 2e931298 2013-10-31 alex ngIRCd 19.1 (2012-03-19)
724 06b63278 2012-03-16 alex - Fix gcc warning (v4.6.3), initialize "list" variable to NULL.
725 06b63278 2012-03-16 alex - Fix typos: "recieved" -> "received", "Please not" -> "Please note",
726 06b63278 2012-03-16 alex and fix lintian(1) warning ""hyphen-used-as-minus-sign", too.
727 ae275714 2012-05-07 alex - Really include _all_ patches to build the Anope module into the
728 0de11ead 2012-03-05 alex distribution archive ... ooops!
729 ae275714 2012-05-07 alex - getpid.sh: Fix test case error for Debian using sbuild(1).
730 0de11ead 2012-03-05 alex - Don't log "ngIRCd hello message" two times when starting up.
732 2e931298 2013-10-31 alex ngIRCd 19 (2012-02-29)
734 9e7360e5 2012-02-29 alex - Update build system: bump config.guess and config.sub files used by
735 9e7360e5 2012-02-29 alex GNU autoconf/automake to recent versions.
736 9e7360e5 2012-02-29 alex - Fix configuration file parser: don't accept "[SSL]" blocks in the
737 9e7360e5 2012-02-29 alex configuration file when no SSL support is built in ngIRCd.
738 9e7360e5 2012-02-29 alex - Fix building ngIRCd with old gcc versions (e. g. 2.7.2).
739 9e7360e5 2012-02-29 alex - Correctly re-open syslog logging after reading of configuration
740 9e7360e5 2012-02-29 alex file: Syslog logging has been initialized before reading the
741 ae275714 2012-05-07 alex configuration, so ngIRCd always used the default facility and ignored
742 9e7360e5 2012-02-29 alex the "SyslogFacility" configuration option ...
743 9e7360e5 2012-02-29 alex Thanks to Patrik Schindler for reporting this issue!
745 8e3c56e5 2012-02-12 alex ngIRCd 19~rc1 (2012-02-12)
746 f7bdee5f 2012-02-12 alex - Enhance command limits for server links: the limit now is dependent
747 f7bdee5f 2012-02-12 alex on the number of users connected in the network and higher while
748 f7bdee5f 2012-02-12 alex servers are joining the network to make the login of servers faster.
749 f7bdee5f 2012-02-12 alex - Log more information about server synchronization.
750 f7bdee5f 2012-02-12 alex - Update preliminary ngIRCd protocol module for Anope 1.9.6, which now
751 f7bdee5f 2012-02-12 alex is the only supported version.
752 ae275714 2012-05-07 alex - New numeric RPL_WHOISHOST_MSG(378), which returns the DNS host name
753 8c46067b 2012-01-23 alex (if available) and the IP address of a client in the WHOIS reply.
754 8c46067b 2012-01-23 alex Only the user itself and local IRC operators get this numeric.
755 9882e578 2012-01-22 alex - Implement channel exception list (mode 'e'). This allows a channel
756 9882e578 2012-01-22 alex operator to define exception masks that allow users to join the
757 9882e578 2012-01-22 alex channel even when a "ban" would match and prevent them from joining:
758 9882e578 2012-01-22 alex the exception list (e) overrides the ban list (b).
759 9882e578 2012-01-22 alex - PRIVMSG and NOTICE: Handle nick!user@host masks case-insensitive.
760 9882e578 2012-01-22 alex - Implement user mode 'C': If the target user of a PRIVMSG or NOTICE
761 9882e578 2012-01-22 alex command has the user mode 'C' set, it is required that both sender
762 9882e578 2012-01-22 alex and receiver are on the same channel. This prevents private flooding
763 9882e578 2012-01-22 alex by completely unknown clients.
764 9882e578 2012-01-22 alex - New RPL_WHOISREGNICK_MSG(307) numeric in WHOIS command replies: it
765 48326e06 2012-11-02 alex indicates if a nickname is registered (if user mode 'R' set).
766 9882e578 2012-01-22 alex - Limit channel invite, ban, and exception lists to 50 entries and fix
767 9882e578 2012-01-22 alex duplicate check and error messages when adding already listed entries
768 9882e578 2012-01-22 alex or deleting no (longer) existing ones.
769 9882e578 2012-01-22 alex - Fix both ERR_SUMMONDISABLED(445) and ERR_USERSDISABLED(446) replies.
770 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex - MODE command: correctly return ERR_UNKNOWNMODE(472) numeric for
771 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex unknown channel modes, instead of ERR_UMODEUNKNOWNFLAG(501).
772 f7bdee5f 2012-02-12 alex - ISUPPORT(005) numeric: add "O", "R", and "z" modes to "CHANMODES",
773 f7bdee5f 2012-02-12 alex add "EXCEPTS=e" and "INVEX=I", add "MAXLIST=beI:50".
774 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex - Limit the number of list items in the reply of LIST (100), WHO (25),
775 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex WHOIS (10), and WHOWAS (25) commands.
776 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex - LIST command: compare pattern case insensitive.
777 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex - Limit the MODE command to handle a maximum number of 5 channel modes
778 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex that require an argument (+Ibkl) per call and report this number
779 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex in the ISUPPORT(005) numeric: "MODES=5".
780 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex - Fix handling of channel mode sequence with/without arguments.
781 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex For example, don't generate wrong error messages when handling
782 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex "MODE #chan +IIIIItn *!aa@b *!bb@c *!cc@d *!dd@e *!ee@f".
783 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex - When sending data on a connection, only try to get the type of
784 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex the client if there still is one assigned. This could trigger an
785 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex assertion and end the daemon in some error paths.
786 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex - Don't try to close already closed/invalid sockets to forked child
787 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex processes. This could potentially crash the daemon in some cases
788 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex with IDENT lookups enabled.
789 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex - WHOIS command: make sure that the reply ends with RPL_ENDOFWHOIS,
790 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex don't answer queries for IRC servers, make sure mask matching is
791 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex case-insensitive, and that RPL_ENDOFWHOIS numeric is sent with the
792 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex unmodified mask (like it has been received from the client).
793 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex - LINKS command: support <mask> parameter to limit the reply.
794 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex - Add 1 second penalty for every further target on PRIVMSG/NOTICE
795 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex commands: this reduces the possibility of flooding channels with
796 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex commands like "PRIVMSG/NOTICE #a,#n,#c,... :message" a little bit.
797 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex Problem noticed by Cahata, thanks!
798 ae275714 2012-05-07 alex - Display correct error message when "Server{UID|GID}" variable in the
799 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex configuration file is invalid (not a number and no existing user).
800 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex - Update Copyright notices for 2012 :-)
801 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex - JOIN command: don't stop handling of channel lists when a single
802 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex channel cannot be joined (because of bad name, wrong key or channel
803 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex limit reached), but report an error and continue. And don't check
804 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex the channel limit and don't report with "too many channels" when
805 4fe6b42c 2012-01-13 alex trying to join a channel that the client already is a member of.
806 48326e06 2012-11-02 alex - ISON command: reply with the correct upper-/lowercase nicknames.
807 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex - New configuration option "PAMIsOptional": when set, clients not
808 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex sending a password are still allowed to connect: they won't become
809 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex "identified" and keep the "~" character prepended to their supplied
810 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex user name. See "man 5 ngircd.conf" for details.
811 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex - Fixed handling of WHO commands. This fixes two bugs: "WHO <nick>"
812 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex returned nothing at all if the user was "+i" (reported by Cahata,
813 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex thanks) and "WHO <nick|nickmask>" returned channel names instead
814 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex of "*" when the user was member of a (visible) channel.
815 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex - Fixed some spelling errors in documentation and code comments
816 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex (Thanks to Christoph Biedl).
817 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex - contrib/Debian/control: Update and complete "Build-Depends" and
818 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex update our Debian package descriptions with "official" ones.
819 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex - Fixed typo in two error messages.
820 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex - LUSERS reply: only count channels that are visible to the requesting
821 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex client, so the existence of secret channels is no longer revealed by
822 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex using LUSERS. Reported by Cahata, thanks!
823 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex - Unknown user and channel modes no longer stop the mode parser, but
824 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex are simply ignored. Therefore modes after the unknown one are now
825 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex handled. This is how ircd2.10/ircd2.11/ircd-seven behave, at least.
826 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex Reported by Cahata, thanks!
827 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex - README: Update list of implemented commands.
828 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex - Log better error messages when rejecting clients.
829 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex - Implement IRC commands "GLINE" and "KLINE" to ban users. G-Lines are
830 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex synchronized between server on peering, K-Lines are local only.
831 8c46067b 2012-01-23 alex If you use "*!<user>@<host>" or "*!*@<host>" masks, these connections
832 8c46067b 2012-01-23 alex are blocked even before the user is fully logged in (before PASS,
833 8c46067b 2012-01-23 alex NICK, and USER commands have been processed) and before the child
834 8c46067b 2012-01-23 alex processes for authentication are forked, so resource usage is smaller.
835 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex - Xcode: update project file for Xcode 4.2 and define HAVE_GAI_STRERROR
836 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex for Mac OS X Xcode builds.
837 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex - ./configure: Fix logic and quoting of poll() detection code: only use
838 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex poll() when poll.h exists as well.
839 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex - Suppress 'Can't create pre-defined channel: invalid name: ""' message.
840 ae275714 2012-05-07 alex - whois-test: handle local host name = "localhost.localdomain" using the
841 ae275714 2012-05-07 alex pattern "localhost*" for valid local host names.
842 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex - sample-ngircd.conf: show correct default for "PAM" variable: The
843 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex default of "PAM" is "yes" when ngIRCd has been configured to use it,
844 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex so show the correct default value in the sample configuration file.
845 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex (Closes #119)
846 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex - Update GPL 2 license text to current version.
847 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex - Only close "unrelated" sockets in forked child processes: This fixes
848 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex the problem that ngIRCd can't do any IDENT lookups because of the
849 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex socket has already been closed in the child process.
850 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex The bug has been introduced starting with ngIRCd 17 ... :-(
851 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex (commit ID 6ebb31ab35e)
852 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex - Added doc/Modes.txt: document modes supported by ngIRCd.
853 48326e06 2012-11-02 alex - Implement user mode "R": indicates that the nickname of this user
854 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex is "registered". This mode isn't handled by ngIRCd itself, but must
855 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex be set and unset by IRC services like Anope.
856 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex - Implement channel mode "R": only registered users (having the user
857 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex mode "R" set) are allowed to join this channel.
858 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex - Test suite: bind to loopback (127.0.0.1) interface only.
859 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex - New 2nd message "Nickname too long" for error code 432.
860 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex - Xcode: Mac OS X config.h: support 10.5 as well as 10.6/10.7 SDK.
861 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex - Xcode: exclude more Xcode 4 specific directories in ".gitignore".
862 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex - Disconnect directly linked servers sending QUIT. Without this,
863 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex the server becomes removed from the network and the client list,
864 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex but the connection isn't shut down at all ...
865 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex - contrib/ngindent: detect "gindent" as GNU indent.
866 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex - Handle unknown user and channel modes: these modes are saved and
867 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex forwarded to other servers, but ignored otherwise.
868 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex - Handle channel user modes 'a', 'h', and 'q' from remote servers.
869 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex These channel user modes aren't used for anything at the moment,
870 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex but ngIRCd knows that these three modes are "channel user modes"
871 48326e06 2012-11-02 alex and not "channel modes", that is that these modes take an "nickname"
872 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex argument. Like unknown user and channel modes, these modes are saved
873 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex and forwarded to other servers, but ignored otherwise.
874 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex - Correctly inform clients when other servers change their user modes.
875 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex This is required for some services to work correctly.
876 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex - Test suite: make getpid.sh work even when run as root.
877 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex - Spoofed prefixes: close connection on non-server links only.
878 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex On server-links, spoofed prefixes can happen because of the
879 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex asynchronous nature of the IRC protocol. So don't break server-
880 70eb8219 2012-01-01 alex links, only log a message and ignore the command. (Closes #113)

884 54f04f81 2011-07-10 alex - Update timestamp of ngircd(8) manual page.
885 54f04f81 2011-07-10 alex - Add preliminary ngIRCd protocol module for Anope 1.9 to contrib/Anope/.
886 54f04f81 2011-07-10 alex - Don't register WHOWAS information when "MorePrivacy" option is in effect.
888 af60f04f 2011-06-29 alex ngIRCd 18~rc2 (2011-06-29)
889 af60f04f 2011-06-29 alex - Update documentation, fix some wording, and use a spellchecker :-)
890 af60f04f 2011-06-29 alex - ngircd.conf.5: strip "SSL" prefix from variables in [SSL] section.
891 af60f04f 2011-06-29 alex - ngircd.8: document debugging options.
892 af60f04f 2011-06-29 alex - GnuTLS: use 1024 bits as minimum size of the DH prime. This enables
893 af60f04f 2011-06-29 alex ngIRCd to accept incoming connections from other servers and clients
894 af60f04f 2011-06-29 alex that "only" use at least 1024 bits again, like ngIRCd 17 did (and no
895 af60f04f 2011-06-29 alex longer requires 2048 bits for incoming connections).
897 b6185b1a 2011-06-27 alex ngIRCd 18~rc1 (2011-06-27)
898 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - PAM warning message: make clear which "Password" config option is ignored.
899 bd118c65 2011-06-28 alex - New configuration option "MorePrivacy" to "censor" some user information.
900 bd118c65 2011-06-28 alex When enabled, signon time and idle time is left out. Part and quit
901 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex messages are made to look the same. WHOWAS requests are silently dropped.
902 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex All of this is useful if one wish to conceal users that access the ngircd
903 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex servers from TOR or I2P.
904 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - New configuration option "ScrubCTCP" to scrub incoming CTCP commands. If
905 bd118c65 2011-06-28 alex activated, the server silently drops incoming CTCP requests from both
906 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex other servers and from users. The server that scrubs CTCP will not forward
907 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex the CTCP requests to other servers in the network either, which can spell
908 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex trouble if not every oper knows about the CTCP-scrubbing. Scrubbing CTCP
909 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex commands also means that it is not possible to send files between users.
910 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex There is one exception to the CTCP scrubbing performed: ACTION ("/me
911 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex commands") requests are not scrubbed.
912 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - Display configuration errors more prominent on "--configtest".
913 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - Restructure ngIRCd configuration file: introduce new [Limits], [Options],
914 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex and [SSL] sections. The intention of this restructuring is to make the
915 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex [Global] section much cleaner, so that it only contains variables that
916 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex most installations must adjust to the local requirements. All the optional
917 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex variables are moved to [Limits], for configurable limits and timers of
918 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex ngIRCd, and [Options], for optional features. All SSL-related variables
919 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex are moved to [SSL] and the "SSL"-prefix is stripped. The old variables in
920 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex the [Global] section are deprecated now, but are still recognized.
921 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex => Don't forget to check your configuration, use "ngircd --configtest"!
922 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - New documentation "how to contribute": doc/Contributing.txt.
923 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - Slightly fix error handling when connecting to remote servers.
924 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - GnuTLS: bump DH-bitsize to 2048: this solves the problem that some clients
925 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex refuse to connect to severs that only offer 1024. For interoperability it
926 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex would be best to just use 4096 bits, but that takes minutes, even on
927 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex current hardware ...
928 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - contrib/platformtest.sh: fix gcc version detection.
929 bd118c65 2011-06-28 alex - Avoid needlessly scary 'buffer overflow' messages: When the write buffer
930 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex space grows too large, ngIRCd has to disconnect the client to avoid
931 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex wasting too much memory, which is logged with a scary 'write buffer
932 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex overflow' message. Change this to a more descriptive wording.
933 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - Require server prefixes for most commands on RFC2812 links. RFC1459 links
934 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex (often used by services, for example) are not affected.
935 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - Mac OS X: update installer functionality, texts, and add our logo :-)
936 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - New configuration option "RequireAuthPing": PING-PONG on login. When
937 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex enabled, this configuration option lets ngIRCd send a PING with an numeric
938 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex "token" to clients logging in; and it will not become registered in the
939 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex network until the client responds with the correct PONG.
940 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - New configuration option "NoticeAuth": send NOTICE AUTH on connect. When
941 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex active, ngircd will send "NOTICE AUTH" messages on client connect time
942 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex like e.g. snircd (QuakeNet) does.
943 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - Generate WALLOPS message on SQUIT from IRC operators; so SQUIT now behaves
944 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex like CONNECT and DISCONNECT commands, when called by an IRC operator.
945 bd118c65 2011-06-28 alex - Allow servers to send more commands in the first 10 seconds ("burst"). This
946 bd118c65 2011-06-28 alex helps to speed up server login and network synchronization.
947 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - Add support for up to 3 targets in WHOIS queries, also allow up to one
948 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex wildcard query from local hosts. Follows ircd 2.10 implementation rather
949 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex than RFC 2812. At most 10 entries are returned per wildcard expansion.
950 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - ngircd.conf(5) manual page: describe types of configuration variables
951 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex (booleans, text strings, integer numbers) and add type information to each
952 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex variable description.
953 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - Don't use "the.net" in sample-ngircd.conf, use "example.net".
954 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - Terminate incoming connections on HTTP commands "GET" and "POST".
955 ae275714 2012-05-07 alex - New configuration option "CloakHost": when set, this host name is used for
956 ae275714 2012-05-07 alex every client instead of the real DNS host name (or IP address).
957 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - New configuration option "CloakUserToNick": when enabled, ngIRCd sets
958 48326e06 2012-11-02 alex every clients' user name to their nickname and hides the user name
959 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex supplied by the IRC client.
960 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - doc/Protocol.txt: Update description of the CHANINFO and WEBIRC commands.
961 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - Doxygen'ify (document) much more source files; code cleanup ...
962 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - Make write buffers bigger, but flush early. Before this change, a client
963 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex got disconnected if the buffer flushing at 4k failed, now regular clients
964 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex can store up to 32k and servers up 64k even if flushing is not possible at
965 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex the moment. This enhances reliability on slow links.
966 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - Don't access possibly free'd CLIENT structure. Ooops.
967 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - Allow "Port = 0" in [Server] blocks. Port number 0 marks remote servers
968 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex that try to connect to this daemon, but where this daemon never tries to
969 bd118c65 2011-06-28 alex establish a connection on its own: only incoming connections are allowed.
970 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - Configuration: fix 'Value of "..." is not a number!' for negative values.
971 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - Enable WHOIS command to return information about services.
972 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - Implement channel mode 'O': "IRC operators only". This channel mode is
973 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex used on DALnet (bahamut), for example.
974 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - Remove support for ZeroConf/Bonjour/Rendezvous service registration
975 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex including the "[No]ZeroConf" configuration option.
976 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - TOPIC command: test for channel admin rights correctly: this enables other
977 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex servers, services and IRC operators to change channel topics, even when
978 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex the client is not joined to this channel.
979 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - Deprecate NoXX-Options in ngircd.conf and move new variants into our new
980 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex [Options] section: 'NoDNS=no' => 'DNS=yes', 'NoIdent=no' => 'Ident=yes',
981 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex 'NoPAM=no' => 'PAM=yes', and 'NoZeroConf=no' => 'ZeroConf=yes' (and
982 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex vice-versa). The defaults are adjusted accordingly and the old variables
983 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex in [Global] are still accepted, so there is no functional change.
984 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - Fix confusing "adding to invite list" debug messages: adding entries to
985 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex ban list produced 'invite list' debug output ...
986 bd118c65 2011-06-28 alex - Don't throttle services and servers being registered.
987 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex - Xcode: correctly sort files :-)
988 bd118c65 2011-06-28 alex - Don't assert() when searching a client for an invalid server token (this is
989 949c8ea7 2011-06-26 alex only relevant when a trusted server on a server-server link sends invalid
992 2e931298 2013-10-31 alex ngIRCd 17.1 (2010-12-19)
994 186b14f3 2010-12-19 alex - --configtest: remember if MOTD is configured by file or phrase
995 186b14f3 2010-12-19 alex - Enhance log messages when establishing server links a little bit
996 186b14f3 2010-12-19 alex - Reset ID of outgoing server link on DNS error correctly
997 186b14f3 2010-12-19 alex - Don't log critical (or worse) messages to stderr
998 186b14f3 2010-12-19 alex - Manual page ngircd(8): add SIGNALS section
999 bd118c65 2011-06-28 alex - Manual pages: update and simplify AUTHORS section
1000 186b14f3 2010-12-19 alex - Remove "error file" when compiled with debug code enabled
1001 186b14f3 2010-12-19 alex - README: Updated list of implemented commands
1002 186b14f3 2010-12-19 alex - add doc/README-Interix.txt and doc/Bopm.txt to distribution tarball
1003 186b14f3 2010-12-19 alex - Merge branch 'numeric-329'
1004 186b14f3 2010-12-19 alex - add doc/PAM.txt to distribution tarball
1005 186b14f3 2010-12-19 alex - New numeric 329: get channel creation time on "MODE #chan" commands
1006 186b14f3 2010-12-19 alex - Save channel creation time; new function Channel_CreationTime()
1008 2e931298 2013-10-31 alex ngIRCd 17 (2010-11-07)
1010 0d19f2b4 2010-11-07 alex - doc: change path names in sample-ngircd.conf depending on sysconfdir
1011 0d19f2b4 2010-11-07 alex - Fix up generation and distribution of sample-ngircd.conf
1012 0d19f2b4 2010-11-07 alex - contrib/ngircd-redhat.init: updated email address of Naoya Nakazawa
1013 0d19f2b4 2010-11-07 alex - contrib/platformtest.sh: make command name quoting consistent
1015 bdcf3f0e 2010-10-27 alex ngIRCd 17~rc3 (2010-10-27)
1016 cb3a4321 2015-09-06 alex - Xcode builds: detect version number correctly, updated project file
1017 bdcf3f0e 2010-10-27 alex to use the Mac OS X 10.5.x SDK, disable pam_fail_delay() because it
1018 bdcf3f0e 2010-10-27 alex is only available starting with Mac OS X 10.6, and generate a default
1019 bdcf3f0e 2010-10-27 alex PAM configuration for the Mac OS X Installer.app package of ngIRCd.
1020 bdcf3f0e 2010-10-27 alex - Debian: updated standards version to 3.9.1, added libpam0g-dev to the
1021 bdcf3f0e 2010-10-27 alex dependencies, and install a default /etc/pam.d/ngircd allowing all logins.
1022 bdcf3f0e 2010-10-27 alex - Make contrib/platformtest.sh more portable.
1023 bdcf3f0e 2010-10-27 alex - Fix connect attempts to further IP addresses of outgoing server links.
1025 8449e082 2010-10-25 alex ngIRCd 17~rc2 (2010-10-25)
1026 8449e082 2010-10-25 alex - ZeroConf: include header files missing since commit a988bbc86a.
1027 8449e082 2010-10-25 alex - Generate ngIRCd version number from GIT tag.
1028 cb3a4321 2015-09-06 alex - Make source code compatible with ansi2knr again. This allows to compile
1029 8449e082 2010-10-25 alex ngIRCd using a pre-ANSI K&R C compiler again.
1030 8449e082 2010-10-25 alex - ./configure: check if C compiler can compile ISO Standard C.
1031 8449e082 2010-10-25 alex - ./configure: check support for C prototypes again.
1032 8449e082 2010-10-25 alex - Don't use PARAMS() macro for function implementations.
1033 8449e082 2010-10-25 alex - Added m68k/apple/aux3.0.1 (gcc 2.7.2) to doc/Platforms.txt.
1034 8449e082 2010-10-25 alex - Only try to set FD_CLOEXEC if this flag is defined.
1035 8449e082 2010-10-25 alex - Only use "__attribute__ ((unused))" if GCC >=2.8 is used.
1036 8449e082 2010-10-25 alex - doc/Makefile.am: don't set docdir, automake handles it already.
1038 d00a0f1e 2010-10-11 alex ngIRCd 17~rc1 (2010-10-11)
1039 a988bbc8 2010-10-11 alex - New configuration option "NoZeroConf" to disable service registration at

1067 4833f9e5 2010-08-29 alex re-read the MOTD file when its content changed.
1068 4833f9e5 2010-08-29 alex - Startup: open /dev/null before chroot'ing the daemon.

1479 dcb9e2a0 2004-12-25 alex ngircd-full packages. And do the test if the binary is executable after
1480 dcb9e2a0 2004-12-25 alex reading this file.
1481 e07cc4bb 2004-09-04 alex - Enhanced the "test suite": please have a look at src/testsuite/README!
1483 beb4edd3 2004-07-03 alex ngIRCd 0.8.0 (2004-06-26)
1485 0b3ee07a 2004-05-30 alex - Fixed wrong buffer size calculation for results of the resolver.
1487 0b3ee07a 2004-05-30 alex ngircd 0.8.0-pre2 (2004-05-16)
1488 d8f47ed1 2004-05-11 alex - Enhanced logging to console when running in "no-detached mode": added

1494 7281b8dd 2004-05-07 alex - Two new configuration options: "ChrootDir" and "MotdPhrase", thanks to
1495 7281b8dd 2004-05-07 alex Benjamin Pineau <ben@zouh.org>. Now you can force the daemon to change
1496 7281b8dd 2004-05-07 alex its root and working directory to something "safe". MotdPhrase is used
1497 7281b8dd 2004-05-07 alex to define an "MOTD string" instead of a whole file, useful if the
1498 7281b8dd 2004-05-07 alex "real" MOTD file would be outside the "jail".
1499 59b903f3 2004-04-25 alex - INVITE- and BAN-lists become synchronized between IRC+ servers when
1500 59b903f3 2004-04-25 alex establishing new connections, if the peer supports this as well.
1501 59b903f3 2004-04-25 alex - Reorganized autogen.sh and configure scripts.
1502 1d8da4b5 2004-04-25 alex - Fixed a wrong assert() which could cause the daemon to exit spuriously
1503 1d8da4b5 2004-04-25 alex when closing down connections.
1504 292c7bd4 2004-04-25 alex - Better logging of decompression errors returned by zlib.
1505 233210b9 2004-04-09 alex - Servers other than the destination server didn't clean up the invite
1506 233210b9 2004-04-09 alex list of an "invite-only" channel properly when an INVITE'd user joined.
1507 56227abc 2004-02-29 alex - Changed the reply of the MODE command to match the syntax of the
1508 56227abc 2004-02-29 alex original ircd exactly: the unnecessary but missing ":" before the last
1509 56227abc 2004-02-29 alex parameter has been added.
1510 bdaf53e7 2004-02-28 alex - Fixed TRACE: don't output "Serv" lines for ourself; display more info.
1511 ae275714 2012-05-07 alex - Results of the resolver (host names and IDENT names) are discarded after
1512 33f4e676 2004-02-28 alex the client is successfully registered with the server.
1513 33f4e676 2004-02-28 alex - Better logging while establishing and shutting down connections.
1514 bb98fd8c 2004-01-25 alex - The type of service (TOS) of all sockets is set to "interactive" now.
1515 c9ccb669 2003-12-29 alex - Added short command line option "-t" as alternative to "--configtest".
1516 b79b315d 2003-12-27 alex - Added optional support for "IDENT" lookups on incoming connections. You
1517 b79b315d 2003-12-27 alex have to enable this function with the ./configure switch "--with-ident".
1518 b79b315d 2003-12-27 alex The default is not to do IDENT lookups.
1520 1e3363d2 2004-02-05 alex ngIRCd 0.7.7 (2004-02-05)
1522 1e3363d2 2004-02-05 alex - The info text ("real name") of users is set to "-" if none has been
1523 1e3363d2 2004-02-05 alex specified using the USER command (e. g. "USER user * * :"). Reason:
1524 1e3363d2 2004-02-05 alex the original ircd doesn't like empty ones and would KILL such users.
1525 1e3363d2 2004-02-05 alex - Fixed (optional) TCP Wrapper test which was broken and could result in
1526 1e3363d2 2004-02-05 alex false results. Thanks to Fuminori Tanizaki <tany@mcnet.ad.jp>!
1527 c40592d2 2003-12-26 alex - Removed "USE_" prefixes of configuration #defines.

1533 07ad774f 2003-12-05 alex - Extended version numbering of CVS versions (added date).
1534 07ad774f 2003-12-05 alex - Enhanced/fixed doc/Protocol.txt;
1536 2978b5ed 2003-11-07 alex ngIRCd 0.7.5 (2003-11-07)
1538 be79fabc 2003-11-06 alex - Fixed ban behavior: users which are banned from a channel can't no
1539 be79fabc 2003-11-06 alex longer send PRIVMSG's to this channel (fixes Bug #47).
1540 7b6e2662 2003-11-05 alex - Fixed and enhanced the "penalty handling" of the server: commands that
1541 7b6e2662 2003-11-05 alex require more resources block the client for a short time.
1542 7b6e2662 2003-11-05 alex - Changed the internal time resolution to one second.
1543 2981fe9e 2003-11-05 alex - New configuration variable "MaxConnectionsIP" to limit the number of
1544 2981fe9e 2003-11-05 alex simultaneous connections from a single IP that the server will accept.
1545 2981fe9e 2003-11-05 alex This configuration options lowers the risk of denial of service attacks
1546 2981fe9e 2003-11-05 alex (DoS), the default is 5 connections per client IP.
1547 20d002e1 2003-11-04 alex - Fixed build problems under Mac OS X 10.3.
1548 cfe63565 2003-10-19 alex - Use "-pipe" when compiling with gcc, speeds things up a little :-)
1549 e33ab903 2003-09-11 alex - Added new configuration variable "Listen" to bind all listening
1550 e33ab903 2003-09-11 alex sockets of the server to a single IP address.

1561 34ede2a9 2003-05-05 alex - Added support for GNU/Hurd.
1562 9a009b24 2003-06-05 alex - Fixed a compiler warning related to an unnecessary assert().

1565 27cd1e0d 2003-05-01 alex ngIRCd 0.7.0 (2003-05-01)
1567 e541da2a 2003-04-29 alex - "ServerName" is checked better now: a dot (".") is required.
1568 da9456db 2003-07-09 alex - The KILL command verifies and logs more parameters.
1570 27cd1e0d 2003-05-01 alex ngIRCd 0.7.0-pre2 (2003-04-27)
1571 e2968dd9 2003-04-22 alex - CVS build system fixes (made autogen.sh more portable).

1576 a1ff081b 2003-04-25 alex - Disable "-ansi" on Cygwin: system headers are incompatible.
1577 dd0b3769 2003-04-25 alex - The server tried to connect to other servers only once when DNS or
1578 da9456db 2003-07-09 alex socket failures occurred.
1579 32f8eb46 2003-04-27 alex - Fixed --configtest: There is no variable "ServerPwd", it's "Password".
1581 e2968dd9 2003-04-22 alex ngIRCd 0.7.0-pre1 (2003-04-22)
1582 371fc259 2002-12-26 alex - New signal handler (more secure, actions are executed outside).
1583 371fc259 2002-12-26 alex - GCC: the compiler is now called with more warning options enabled.
1584 371fc259 2002-12-26 alex - Replaced a lot of str[n]cpy(), str[n]cat() and sprintf() calls with the
1585 371fc259 2002-12-26 alex more secure functions strlcpy(), strlcat() and snprintf(). On systems
1586 371fc259 2002-12-26 alex that don't support strlcpy() and strlcat(), these functions are included
1587 371fc259 2002-12-26 alex in the libngportab now (with prototypes in portab.h).
1588 c9ee3ae4 2002-12-27 alex - If the server can't close a socket, it panics now. This is an error that
1589 a84b9d99 2003-03-09 alex can't occur during normal operation so there is something broken.
1590 c9ee3ae4 2002-12-27 alex - The order of log messages during disconnects is more "natural" now ;-)
1591 a2544e49 2002-12-30 alex - Cleaned up handling of server configuration structures: modifying and
1592 a2544e49 2002-12-30 alex removing servers during runtime works more reliable now.
1593 4953c15b 2002-12-30 alex - Compression code from "conn.[ch]" is now found in new "conn-zip.[ch]"
1594 f83ea4b1 2002-12-30 alex - Moved some connection functions from "conn.[ch]" to "conn-func.[ch]".
1595 717a26e3 2002-12-31 alex - New command CONNECT to enable and add server links. The syntax is not
1596 717a26e3 2002-12-31 alex RFC-compatible: use "CONNECT <name> <port>" to enable and connect an
1597 717a26e3 2002-12-31 alex configured server and "CONNECT <name> <port> <host> <mypwd> <peerpwd>"
1598 717a26e3 2002-12-31 alex to add a new server (ngIRCd tries to connect new servers only once!).
1599 717a26e3 2002-12-31 alex - Added DISCONNECT command ("DISCONNECT <name>") to disable servers.
1600 1a1ff404 2003-03-15 alex - Restructured the documentation: Now the main language is English. The
1601 cb3a4321 2015-09-06 alex German documentation has been removed (until there is a maintainer).
1602 aca6310d 2003-01-08 alex - Enhanced killing of users caused by a nickname collision.
1603 6a0bd57e 2003-01-12 alex - Better error detection for status code ("numerics") forwarding.
1604 f9cb4a42 2003-01-13 alex - Moved tool functions to own library: "libngtool".
1605 947c5124 2003-01-13 alex - New command TRACE (you can trace only servers at the moment).
1606 28cd2c11 2003-01-15 alex - New command HELP that lists all understood commands.
1607 fd4a6b5d 2003-03-04 alex - There should no longer remain "unknown connections" (see e.g. LUSERS)
1608 155f26ee 2003-01-15 alex if an outgoing server link can't be established.
1609 560c7961 2003-01-31 alex - Added AC_PREREQ(2.50) to configure.in for better autoconf compatibility.
1610 a84b9d99 2003-03-09 alex - Conn_Close() now handles recursive calls for the same link correctly.
1611 f349b189 2003-02-23 alex - ngIRCd can register itself with Rendezvous: to enable support pass the
1612 7640aa51 2003-03-07 alex new switch "--with-rendezvous" to configure.
1613 7640aa51 2003-03-07 alex - Added support for TCP Wrappers library: pass "--with-tcp-wrappers" to
1614 7640aa51 2003-03-07 alex configure to enable it.
1615 7640aa51 2003-03-07 alex - Changed some configure options to use "--with"/"--without" as prefix
1616 a84b9d99 2003-03-09 alex instead of "--enable"/"--disable": "--without-syslog", "--without-zlib",
1617 7640aa51 2003-03-07 alex "--with-tcp-wrappers", and "--with-rendezvous".
1618 ade2fdc9 2003-03-07 alex - Better error reporting to clients on connect.
1619 8fc69bb6 2003-03-10 alex - Enhanced manual pages ngircd(8) and ngircd.conf(5).
1620 4ef6dae1 2003-04-20 alex - Documentation is now installed in $(datadir)/doc/ngircd.
1621 fd9266df 2009-01-01 alex - Enhanced handling of NJOIN in case of nick collisions.
1623 2e931298 2013-10-31 alex ngIRCd 0.6.1 (2003-01-21)
1625 9d8f425a 2003-01-21 alex - Fixed KILL: you can't crash the server by killing yourself any more,
1626 9d8f425a 2003-01-21 alex ngIRCd no longer sends a QUIT to other servers after the KILL, and you
1627 9d8f425a 2003-01-21 alex can kill only valid users now.
1628 9d8f425a 2003-01-21 alex - The server no longer forwards commands to ordinary users, instead it
1629 9d8f425a 2003-01-21 alex answers with the correct error message ("no such server") now.
1630 9d8f425a 2003-01-21 alex - WHOIS commands weren't always forwarded as requested.
1631 9d8f425a 2003-01-21 alex - The server sets a correct default AWAY message now when propagating
1632 9d8f425a 2003-01-21 alex between servers (bug introduced in 0.6.0).
1633 9d8f425a 2003-01-21 alex - Fixed up and enhanced CHANINFO command: channel keys and user limits
1634 a93b4d97 2003-04-05 alex are synchronized between servers now, too.
1635 9d8f425a 2003-01-21 alex - MODE returns the key and user limit for channel members correctly now.
1636 d978d8dd 2003-01-17 alex - Non-members of a channel could crash the server when trying to change
1637 d978d8dd 2003-01-17 alex its modes or modes of its members.
1638 9d8f425a 2003-01-21 alex - The server didn't validate weather a target user is a valid channel
1639 9d8f425a 2003-01-21 alex member when changing his channel user modes which could crash ngIRCd.
1642 cb3a4321 2015-09-06 alex Older changes (sorry, only available in German language):
1644 2e931298 2013-10-31 alex ngIRCd 0.6.0, 24.12.2002
1646 2e931298 2013-10-31 alex ngIRCd 0.6.0-pre2, 23.12.2002
1647 2f903412 2002-12-22 alex - neuer Numeric 005 ("Features") beim Connect.
1648 2f903412 2002-12-22 alex - LUSERS erweitert: nun wird die maximale Anzahl der lokalen und globalen
1649 2f903412 2002-12-22 alex Clients, die dem Server bzw. im Netzwerk seit dem letzten (Re-)Start
1650 2f903412 2002-12-22 alex dem Server gleichzeitig bekannt waren, angezeigt.
1652 2e931298 2013-10-31 alex ngIRCd 0.6.0-pre1, 18.12.2002
1653 b7593369 2002-10-09 alex - beim Schliessen einer Verbindung zeigt der Server nun vor dem ERROR
1654 5e70a131 2002-10-09 alex noch eine Statistik ueber die empfangene und gesendete Datenmenge an.
1655 51dd80c4 2002-11-04 alex - der Server wartet bei einer eingehenden Verbindung nun laenger auf den
1656 51dd80c4 2002-11-04 alex Resolver (4 Sekunden), wenn das Ergebnis eintrifft setzt er aber den
1657 51dd80c4 2002-11-04 alex Login sofort fort (bisher wurde immer mind. 1 Sekunde gewartet).
1658 51dd80c4 2002-11-04 alex - Connection-Strukturen werden nun "pool-weise" verwaltet; der Pool wird
1659 51dd80c4 2002-11-04 alex bei Bedarf bis zu einem konfigurierten Limit vergroessert.
1660 865c4308 2002-12-15 alex - Mit der neuen Konfigurationsvariable "MaxConnections" (Sektion "Global")
1661 51dd80c4 2002-11-04 alex kann die maximale Anzahl gleichzeitiger Verbindungen begrenzt werden.
1662 51dd80c4 2002-11-04 alex Der Default ist -1, "unlimitiert".
1663 47c8bcc8 2002-11-05 alex - der Server erkennt nun, ob bereits eine eingehende Verbindung von einem
1664 47c8bcc8 2002-11-05 alex Peer-Server besteht und versucht dann nicht mehr, selber eine eigene
1665 47c8bcc8 2002-11-05 alex ausgehende Verbindung zu diesem auufzubauen. Dadurch kann nun auf beiden
1666 47c8bcc8 2002-11-05 alex Servern in der Konfiguration ein Port fuer den Connect konfiguriert
1667 47c8bcc8 2002-11-05 alex werden (beide Server versuchen sich dann gegenseitig zu connectieren).
1668 8457fca5 2002-11-11 alex - Test-Suite und Dokumentation an A/UX angepasst.
1669 f80a5ae1 2002-11-15 alex - unter HP-UX definiert das configure-Script nun _XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED.
1670 e19ce437 2011-12-29 alex - Server identifizieren sich nun mit asynchronen Passwoertern, d.h. das
1671 caa7049e 2002-11-19 alex Passwort, welches A an B schickt, kann ein anderes sein als das, welches
1672 caa7049e 2002-11-19 alex B als Antwort an A sendet. In der Konfig.-Datei, Abschnitt "Server",
1673 caa7049e 2002-11-19 alex wurde "Password" dazu durch "MyPassword" und "PeerPassword" ersetzt.
1674 ab788a2e 2002-11-22 alex - Der Server kann nun zur Laufzeit die Konfiguration neu einlesen: dies
1675 413fed98 2002-11-22 alex macht er nach dem Befehl REHASH oder wenn ein HUP-Signal empfangen wird.
1676 b8cf379f 2002-11-22 alex - Channel-Mode "P" ("persistent") kann nur noch von IRC-Operatoren gesetzt
1677 b8cf379f 2002-11-22 alex werden. Grund: User koennen den Server sonst leicht "Channel-Flooden".
1678 ae128734 2002-11-24 alex - MOTD kann nun an andere Server geforwarded werden.
1679 ae128734 2002-11-24 alex - IRC-Befehl "TIME" implementiert.

1682 2625ce78 2002-11-26 alex nicht, wird automatisch unkomprimiert kommuniziert. Das Verfahren ist
1683 2625ce78 2002-11-26 alex kompatibel mit dem Original-ircd 2.10.3, d.h. beide Server koennen
1684 2625ce78 2002-11-26 alex miteinander ueber komprimiert Links kommunizieren.
1685 2de5b5cf 2002-11-26 alex - Handling der Schreibpuffer umgestellt: Server sollte schneller arbeiten.
1686 7a6f99a6 2002-11-29 alex - Prefix-Fehler werden besser protokolliert (mit verursachendem Befehl).
1687 a1dff152 2002-11-28 alex - SQUIT wird nicht mehr doppelt an andere Server weitergeleitet.
1688 93a39e87 2002-11-28 alex - Der Server versucht nun vor dem Schliessen einer Verbindung Daten, die
1689 93a39e87 2002-11-28 alex noch im Schreibpuffer stehen, zu senden.
1690 0efec7c0 2002-12-01 alex - Source in weiteres Modul "irc-info" aufgespalten.
1691 c3a892e1 2002-11-30 alex - Konfigurationsvariablen werden besser validiert: Laengen, Zahlen, ...
1692 b9d6a03e 2002-12-18 alex - neuen Befehl STATS begonnen: bisher unterstuetzt wird "l" und "m".
1693 4807c4e6 2002-12-02 alex - bei ISON und USERHOST fehlte im Ergebnis-String der korrekte Absender.
1694 b55915c1 2002-12-14 alex - IRC Operatoren koennen nun mit KILL User toeten. Achtung: ein Grund muss
1695 11c4e786 2002-12-06 alex zwingend als zweiter Parameter angegeben werden!
1696 f7fe170a 2002-12-14 alex - neue Konfigurations-Variable "MaxJoins": Hiermit kann die maximale Zahl
1697 f7fe170a 2002-12-14 alex der Channels, in denen ein User Mitglied sein kann, begrent werden.

1704 a7eb18db 2002-11-24 alex unter A/UX wieder zu anderen verbinden.
1705 a7eb18db 2002-11-24 alex - in den Konfigurationsvariablen ServerUID und ServerGID kann nun nicht
1706 a7eb18db 2002-11-24 alex nur die numerische ID, sondern auch der Name des Users bzw. der Gruppe
1707 a7eb18db 2002-11-24 alex verwendet werden. Beim Start des Daemons wird nun beides angezeigt.
1708 a7eb18db 2002-11-24 alex - Besseres Logging von Prefix-Fehlern.
1709 a7eb18db 2002-11-24 alex - angenommene Sockets werden nun korrekt auf "non-blocking" konfiguriert,

1712 5e89b0c8 2002-11-23 alex - select() in Try_Write() hat falschen (keinen!) Timeout verwendet;
1713 5e89b0c8 2002-11-23 alex die "Zeit-Aufloesung" des Servers sind zudem nun 2 Sekunden (TIME_RES).
1714 5e89b0c8 2002-11-23 alex Insgesamt sollte die Reaktionszeit des Server nun besser sein.

1718 51dd80c4 2002-11-04 alex - NOTICE liefert nun wirklich nie mehr einen Fehler, auch dann nicht,
1719 51dd80c4 2002-11-04 alex wenn der sendende Client noch gar nicht registriert ist.

1721 ef407ea5 2002-10-09 alex Verbindung zuvor ordentlich (="lange genug") in Ordnung war; somit also
1722 ef407ea5 2002-10-09 alex nicht meht, wenn der Peer-Server gleich beim Connect ein ERROR liefert.
1723 b7593369 2002-10-09 alex Das vermeidet "Connect-Orgien".
1724 ef407ea5 2002-10-09 alex - einige Datentypen aufgeraumt: z.B. sind viele INT32s nun LONGs. Das ist
1725 ef407ea5 2002-10-09 alex auf Platformen mit 8-Byte-Integern kompatibler.
1726 0dfb7716 2002-10-11 alex - RPL_YOURHOST_MSG ist nun ircII- und RFC-kompatibel ;-)
1727 863daa29 2002-10-14 alex - Segfault unter hoher Netzaktivitaet behoben: in Conn_Close() wird die

1740 9d928b24 2002-09-23 alex nun "manuell" von der Kommandozeile gestartet werden, stress-server.sh
1741 9d928b24 2002-09-23 alex startet per Default nur noch 5 Sessions, eine andere Zahl kann auf der
1742 9d928b24 2002-09-23 alex Kommandozeile uebergeben werden (Syntax: "stress-server.sh <count>").
1743 9ba956ca 2002-09-26 alex - In bestimmten Faellen hat der Server versucht auf einen bereits wieder
1744 9ba956ca 2002-09-26 alex geschlossenen Socket Daten zu schreiben; das fuehrte zu einem Abbruch des
1745 9ba956ca 2002-09-26 alex Servers durch ein assert(). Nun wird geprueft, ob der Socket noch ok ist.
1746 c6e936d6 2002-10-01 alex - im "contrib"-Verzeichnis befindet sich nun eine RPM-Spec-Datei, aus den
1747 c6e936d6 2002-10-01 alex .tar.gz's koennen nun mit "rpm -ta <archiv>" RPM's erzeugt werden. Danke
1748 c6e936d6 2002-10-01 alex an Sean Reifschneider <jafo@tummy.com>!

1765 72670833 2002-07-08 alex - auf Systemen, die inet_aton() nicht kennen (wie z.B. A/UX), kann der
1766 72670833 2002-07-08 alex ngIRCd nun dennoch auch aktiv Server-Links aufbauen.
1767 c11e5501 2002-05-18 alex - h_errno wird auf Systemen, die das nicht kennen (wie z.B. HP-UX 10.20)
1768 c11e5501 2002-05-18 alex nicht mehr verwendet. Somit compiliert der ngIRCd nun auch dort :-)
1769 75f1c5ec 2002-05-19 alex - um auf dem Ziel-System nicht vorhandene Funktionen nachzubilden wird nun
1770 75f1c5ec 2002-05-19 alex die "libngportab" erzeugt; genutzt wird dies bisher fuer vsnprintf().

1772 c3aac8dd 2002-05-21 alex - "persistente Channels" (Mode 'P') implementiert: diese koennen in der
1773 c3aac8dd 2002-05-21 alex Konfigurationsdatei definiert werden (Sektion "Channel", vgl. Beispiel-

1775 c3aac8dd 2002-05-21 alex wenn kein User mehr im Channel ist. Zu Channel-Operatoren werden bisher
1776 c3aac8dd 2002-05-21 alex nur IRC-Operatoren, die den Channel betreten. Die persistenten Channels
1777 c3aac8dd 2002-05-21 alex werden durch das Flag "P" gelennzeichnet, welches normal durch Channel-
1778 c3aac8dd 2002-05-21 alex Op's gesetzt und geloescht werden kann.
1779 3862949a 2002-05-22 alex - bei "--configtest" werden keine leere Abschnitte mehr ausgegeben.

1783 35507ce9 2002-06-01 alex werden, Listen, wir im RFC vorgesehen, werden bisher nicht unterstuetzt).
1784 922b7dbd 2002-09-08 alex - INVITE, den Channel-Mode "i" sowie Invite-Lists ueber den MODE-Befehl

1789 35507ce9 2002-06-01 alex - TOPIC lieferte bei unbekanntem Channel einen falschen Fehlercode.
1790 a9d44b95 2002-09-16 alex - LIST versteht nun Wildcards und kann an andere Server geforwarded werden.
1791 3b6c3d6d 2002-07-25 alex - wurde ein KILL fuer nicht-lokale Clients empfangen, so wurden die

1794 71ae4731 2002-09-02 alex - neue Konfigurationsoption "OperCanUseMode" (Sektion "Global"):
1795 5e6c713d 2002-09-02 alex ist sie aktiv, koennen IRC-Operatoren immer Channel-Modes setzen.
1796 62d57688 2002-09-03 alex - Dokumentation des neuen IRC+-Protokolls begonnen: doc/Protocol.txt
1797 bfa5fd3a 2002-09-02 alex - Protokoll- und Server-ID bei PASS-Befehlen auf neues Format umgestellt;

1805 eb817807 2002-09-09 alex - wird der Server mit "-n"/"--nodaemon" gestartet, so werden keine Mel-

1807 eb817807 2002-09-09 alex - "Test-Suite" begonnen (in "make check" integriert): Dabei wird ein
1808 eb817807 2002-09-09 alex speziell konfigurierter Server auf Port 6789 gestartet, mit dem dann
1809 eb817807 2002-09-09 alex einige Tests durchgefuehrt werden (u.a. "Stress-Test" mit 50 Clients).
1810 a9d44b95 2002-09-16 alex - zu lange Operator-Namen in der Konfiguration wurden falsch gekuerzt.
1811 a9d44b95 2002-09-16 alex - kleine Anpassung an AIX 3.2.5: nun laeuft der ngIRCd auch dort :-)

1813 a9d44b95 2002-09-16 alex im [Global]-Abschnitt mit den Variablen "AdminInfo1", "AdminInfo2" und
1814 a9d44b95 2002-09-16 alex "AdminEMail" konfiguriert.
1816 e1ef0bd4 2002-06-11 alex ngIRCd 0.4.3, 11.06.2002
1818 e1ef0bd4 2002-06-11 alex - Bei PRIVMSG und NOTICE hat der ngIRCd nicht ueberpruft, ob das Ziel
1819 e1ef0bd4 2002-06-11 alex ueberhaupt ein User ist. War es keiner, so fuehrte dies zu einem
1820 e1ef0bd4 2002-06-11 alex Abbruch des Servers [es wurde assert() aufgerufen].
1822 9cdf8772 2002-05-31 alex ngIRCd 0.4.2, 29.04.2002
1824 f0ebf6c1 2002-04-14 alex - LUSERS verzaehlt sich bei eigenen Server-Links nicht mehr.

1831 b8c153df 2002-04-08 alex - Bei Server-Links wird nicht mehr an Hand der Anzahl der Parameter
1832 b8c153df 2002-04-08 alex eines empfangenen SERVER-Befehls, sondern "intern" erkannt, ob es
1833 b8c153df 2002-04-08 alex sich um eine ein- oder ausgehende Verbindung handelt und somit das
1834 49a57354 2002-04-08 alex eigene PASS-SERVER-Paar gesendet werden muss oder nicht. Da sich
1835 49a57354 2002-04-08 alex verschiedene Versionen des Original-ircd's anders verhalten, schlug
1836 49a57354 2002-04-08 alex die Anmeldung je nach Gehenseite evtl. fehl.

1846 89f9522e 2002-03-10 alex Laeuft der Server nicht im Debug-Modus, so wird diese bei Programm-
1847 89f9522e 2002-03-10 alex ende geloescht. Sollte der Server abstuerzen, finden sich hier evtl.
1848 89f9522e 2002-03-10 alex zusaetzliche Informationen.

1856 2464556a 2002-03-10 alex einer Gruppe eine Verbindung aufgebaut, klappt es beim ersten Server
1857 2464556a 2002-03-10 alex nicht, so wird der naechste probiert (Variable "Group" in der Kon-
1858 2464556a 2002-03-10 alex figurationsdatei, Sektion [Server]).
1859 22105800 2002-03-10 alex - IRC_PING() ist, wenn nicht im "strict RFC"-Mode, toleranter und ak-
1860 284a0afb 2002-03-31 alex zeptiert beliebig viele Parameter (z.B. BitchX sendet soetwas).
1861 27d131a1 2002-03-12 alex - die "Portab-Header" werden nicht mehr benoetigt, die System-Erkennung
1862 27d131a1 2002-03-12 alex wird nun ausschliesslich vom configure-Script durchgefuehrt. System-

1877 00529c8f 2002-02-17 alex - bekommt der Server ein HUP-Signal, so startet er neu -- genau so, wie
1878 00529c8f 2002-02-17 alex er auf den IRC-Befehl RESTART reagiert.

1880 c66702c6 2002-02-19 alex - neuer Kommandozeilen-Schalter "--passive" (-p): wird er angegeben, so
1881 c66702c6 2002-02-19 alex verbindet sich der ngIRCd nicht mehr automatisch zu anderen Servern.
1882 c66702c6 2002-02-19 alex Zum Debuggen manchmal ganz praktisch :-)
1883 c66702c6 2002-02-19 alex - direkt nach dem Start schreibt der ngIRCd nun die aktiven Kommando-
1884 c66702c6 2002-02-19 alex zeilenschalter in's Logfile (Passive, Debug, Sniffer ...).
1885 367657fd 2002-02-19 alex - das Signal-Flag SA_RESTART wird nur noch gesetzt, wenn es auf dem

1896 8c956d59 2002-02-25 alex schickt, Server bekommen nach wie vor kurze: das "Original" hat bei
1897 8c956d59 2002-02-25 alex bestimmten Befehlen (PRIVMSG) ansonsten evtl. Probleme ...
1898 e4754c34 2002-02-27 alex - NAMES korrigiert und vollstaendig implementiert.
