ngIRCd release 13 (tags/rel-13)
don't print pid_t type with %ld format specifier
Reported by Christoph Biedl: ngircd[21581]: Running as user irc(39), group irc(39), with PID 140733193409613. cast pid_t to long to avoid this. While we are there, cast uid_t and gid_t, too.
Testsuite start-server.sh: return correct exit code.
src/testsuite/start-server.sh returns 0 when no errors occurred and the daemon has been startet and 1 on errors. Always returning 0 is wrong ...

Fix double minus signs in manual pages
This patch fixes the following lintian(1) warning: "Manual page seems to contain a hyphen where a minus sign was intended. '-' chars are interpreted as hyphens (U+2010) by groff, not as minus signs (U+002D). Since options to programs use minus signs (U+002D), this means for example in UTF-8 locales that you cannot cut&paste options, nor search for them easily. '-' must be escaped ('\-') to be interpreted as minus."
Change formatting of some log messages
- Fix formatting of some log messages, mostly punctuation. - cb_Connect_to_Server(): don't use string concatenation, because it is not supported by pre-ANSI C compilers ...
Fix pem_passwd_cb(): unused variable "rwflag" (OpenSSL)
This patch fixes the following warning of GCC (version 4.3.2) in function pem_passwd_cb() when compiling with OpenSSL support and without debug code: conn-ssl.c: In function 'pem_passwd_cb': conn-ssl.c:122: warning: unused parameter 'rwflag'
New configuration option "NoIdent" to disable IDENT lookups
The new configuration option "NoIdent" in ngircd.conf can be used to disable IDENT lookups even when the ngIRCd daemon is compiled with IDENT lookups enabled.
Implement the IRC command "SERVLIST"
The IRC command "SERVLIST" lists all the registered services, see RFC 2811, section 3.5.1. The syntax is "SERVLIST [<mask> [<type>]]". The parameter <type> is not used by ngIRCd at the moment, all registered services are of type 0 (which is the default when omitted).
Create local &SERVER channel and log server messages to it
ngIRCd now creates a server-local channel &SERVER with channel modes +mnPt (moderated, no messages from outside the channel, persistent and with the topic locked) and logs all the messages to it that a user with mode +s ("server messages") receives. If an IRC operator withdraws the +P ("persistent") mode and the &SERVER channel is freed because of no members, nothing special happens. The channel can be recerated any time later and ngIRCd would begin logging to it again.
Implement local channels (prefix "&")
This patch implements server-local channels, prefix "&", that are only visible to users of the same local server and not in the network. Patch written by Scott Perry (2008-06-04), see: - http://arthur.barton.de/cgi-bin/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=87 - http://arthur.barton.de/cgi-bin/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=24&action=view
Added some missing files of GIT tree to distribution archives
The following bits and bytes were not included in distribution archives: - contrib: ngindent, ngircd.sh - contrib/Debian: ngircd.postinst - contrib/MacOSX: preinstall.sh, postinstall.sh - doc/src: Doxyfile, header.inc.html, footer.inc.html, ngircd-doc.css - src/portab: splint.h
Test suite: start two servers and test server-server links
I changed the test suite to start two test servers (on port 6789 and 6790), so server-server links can be tested as well for which I included the new test script "server-link-test.e". In addition the documentation of the test suite (src/testsuite/README) has been updated and is more complete now.
Add conf-ssl.h to "noinst_HEADERS"
conf-ssl.h must be listed in "noinst_HEADERS" so that it becomes included in distribution archives generated by "make dist" and "make distcheck".
Re-add CVE identifiers to ChangeLog.
I'm lame. My last commit removed all the CVE numbers recently added in commit 598df0758 to the ChangeLog ... shame on me! See all the CVE entries of ngIRCd at: <http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvekey.cgi?keyword=ngircd>
