ngIRCd 19.2~rc1
by Alexander Barton 13 Jun '12

13 Jun '12

Hello World! The next release of ngIRCd, release 19.2, is on the horizon – and in preparation to this maintenance release, here is the first release candidate. Changes and new features: - New configuration option "CloakHostModeX" to configure the hostname that gets used for IRC clients which have user mode "+x" enabled. Up to now, the name of the IRC server itself has been used for this, which still is the default when "CloakHostModeX" isn't set. - Correctly handle asynchronously re-established server links: a race condition could let the daemon loose track of an already re-established incoming server link while preparing its own outgoing connection. Peers that both try to connect each other could have been affected. - Log a debug message when SIGUSR2 is handled in debug mode. - Only allow alphanumeric characters in user-supplied user names of USER command and IDENT replies. - Change wording of "TLS initialized" message to make it more consistent. - Don't leak file descriptors on error path when creating "PID files". - Add missing mode "r" to CHANMODES in 005 "ISUPPORT" numeric. - Update doc/Modes.txt and doc/Platforms.txt documents. - contrib/platformtest.sh: correctly detect Open64 C compiler and handle "CC=xxx MAKE=yyy ./platformtest.sh" calling convention. - Add instructions for setting up Atheme IRC services. - Implement support for IRC capability handling, the new "CAP" command, and capablity "multi-prefix" which allows both the NAME and WHO command handlers to return more than one "class prefix" to the client. - Update Xcode project files: reference missing documentation files. - Fix: Don't ignore "permission denied" errors when enabling chroot. - FAQ: enhance description of chroot setup.

The primary download locations are: - <ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/ngircd/> - <http://ngircd.barton.de/pub/ngircd/> Please report any bugs and regressions to this mailing list or directly using the bug tracker – thanks!

Channel Management
by Alessandro Alessio 08 Mai '12

08 Mai '12

Arthur, i solved my login problems. It was an SDL socket problem. So, i created a brand new socket management on my own and now everything works fine. I am actually enjoying checking the various client commands and relative server responds, and i have two questions for you, i believe you can help. On Channel_Create you actually create one channel (&Server) in your server. Then you have another method Channel_InitPredefined(), which created a list of 'predefined' channels contained into a GLOBAL array Conf_Channels. I actually don't understand where (and if) this array is populated. Second question regards messages in chan. Actually the IRC protocol talks about PRVMSG but not about messages that client sends to chan. Is there a prefix or is a server feature, which broadcasts the message to all the clients belonging to the same chan? Tnx again for your help, and congrats for the IRC Server developed. Cheers alex

User Registration
by Alessandro Alessio 26 Apr '12

26 Apr '12

Hi all, I am a new user of the ngircd. I created an IRC client in C++ and i am now interested in testing it with your ngircd server. i am having some troubles during the registration phase and i don't understand where i am wrong. I wonder if any of you can help. The IRC protocol states that client has to register the user following these steps: 1. Pass message 2. Nick message 2. Service message 3. User message Actually, i create first a socket to the ngicrd (run win -n) which responds "Accepted connection from <IP> on socket <id>" then i send the following messages: PASS NOPASS\n\r NICK giggio\n\r USER guest 0 * :Ronald Reagan\n\r And after a while i get the following answers: Shutting down connection <id> (Timeout) with <IP:port> Client unregistered (<id>) : Timeout I tried to use /PASS or to erase \n\r but i always get a Timeout error. I don't get what i'm doing wrong since i am respecting the IRC Protocol cheers, alex

Re: [ngIRCd-ML] NGIRCD installation
by Alessandro Alessio 24 Apr '12

24 Apr '12

Well, that is the problem :) No ngircd installed in the directories. And if i run ./ngircd -n i get: Can't read configuration "/usr/local/etc/ngircd.conf": No such file or directory. So, i miss the conf file and i believe that something went wrong in the make install phase, since i got no problems during the ./configure and make phases Tnx Am 24.04.2012 um 14:58 schrieb Alessandro Alessio: > after running 'make install' i do not get any error, but actually i am not sure the install went fine. If you don’t get error messages most probably there haven’t been any errors. So what’s your problem? After running „make install“ you’ll find ngIRCd installed in the default location (usr/local/sbin, /usr/local/etc/ngircd, …) or in the location(s) you passed to the ./configure script. Regards Alex

Multiple LAN Servers.....
by Damon Talbot 20 Apr '12

20 Apr '12

Hello, I am trying to configure several servers that all connect over a LAN/MESH (AD-HOC) network. I thought I had edited the ngircd.conf right but cannot get it to work. How can I go about doing this? all of the servers would share the same IP since they are on a AD-HOC MESH system KC7NEC Damon

ngIRCd 19.1
by Alexander Barton 19 Mär '12

19 Mär '12

Hello! I just released the first „bug fix release“ for ngIRCd 19, named „19.1“. You can grab it on the usual locations, see below. All changes are cosmetic (fixed typos in comments and log messages) or fix our build system, there have been no functional changes – so if you built and installed ngIRCd 19 successfully, there is no big reason to update. But feel free to do so anyway :-) Please see the NEWS and ChangeLog files for all the glory details: - <http://ngircd.barton.de/doc/NEWS> - <http://ngircd.barton.de/doc/ChangeLog> You can find more information on our homepage at <http://ngircd.barton.de/> and its mirror <http://ngircd.berlios.de/>.

ngIRCd 19
by Alexander Barton 05 Mär '12

05 Mär '12

Hi List Readers! „We proudly present ngIRCd 19!“ – so here it is, the next stable release of ngIRCd! There have been a few last fixes since the release candidate, for example the „SyslogFacility“ configuration variable should really work now and you can use GCC 2.7.2 again to build it [yeah, I know, who cares – but indeed a few do, including me ;-)]. Besides these fixes, ngIRCd 19 is the most usable release in combination with Anope IRC services ever: lots of enhancements and fixes went in, in addition to an updated Anope protocol module that works with Anope 1.9.6 released in early February (see included ./doc/Services.txt and ./contrib/Anope/README files for details). The flood protection and „abuse prevention behavior“ has been greatly enhanced, for example by introducing new limits for channel ban and invite lists (MODE +b/+I) and other list replies (LIST, WHO, WHOIS, WHOWAS). And there are new commands (like GLINE and KLINE), new user modes (R, C) and channel modes (r, R), and channel exception lists (e) have been implemented as well. Lots of commands have been enhanced to better follow the RFC-specified and/or well known syntax and behavior (MODE, LINKS, WHO, LUSERS, …). Please read the NEWS and ChangeLog files for the whole story: - <http://ngircd.barton.de/doc/NEWS> - <http://ngircd.barton.de/doc/ChangeLog> You can find more information on our homepage at <http://ngircd.barton.de/> and its mirror <http://ngircd.berlios.de/>. The primary download locations are: - <ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/ngircd/> - <http://ngircd.barton.de/pub/ngircd/> And as usual: send questions to this list, file bug reports (for bugs and enhancements), send patches, join <irc://irc.barton.de/ngircd>, and have fun! ;-) Regards Alex

[PATCH] Fix testcase error for Debian using sbuild
by Christoph Biedl 03 Mär '12

03 Mär '12

Hello, for reasons beyond my understanding, when * building the ngircd Debian package (on Linux at least) and * using the sbuild build system, the command "ps -af" does not include the commands running inside the sbuild system. Therefore, start-server.sh will report a fail as getpid.sh cannot not find the ./T-ngircd1 just started although it's actually running. This results in a funny build log ... starting server 1 ... failure! FAIL: start-server1 running connect-test ... ok. PASS: connect-test The self-test of getpid.sh however will likely succeed as it's happy if it sees any process with "sh" somewhere in the name. Things go downhill from there. The confusing things are: * The alternative cowbuilder/pbuilder does not have this problem. * The alternative usage "ps ax" does fine. This took a few days to track down. So, as a quick hack, the patch attached adds another switch to getpid.sh. It's already included in the Debian package ngircd-19-1 uploaded a few hours ago. As briefly discussed in IRC, the whole start-server/getpid thingie is very fragile and needs a cleanup. Unfortunately, any solution has to keep in mind ngircd aims to be portable so we cannot use advanced solutions for the problem of sane daemon starting/stopping like start-stop-daemon. Cheers, Christoph diff --git a/src/testsuite/getpid.sh b/src/testsuite/getpid.sh index fd3b342..19ced76 100755 --- a/src/testsuite/getpid.sh +++ b/src/testsuite/getpid.sh @@ -13,6 +13,8 @@ elif [ $UNAME = "A/UX" ]; then PS_FLAGS="-ae"; PS_PIDCOL="1"; HEAD_FLAGS="-1" elif [ $UNAME = "GNU" ]; then PS_FLAGS="-ax"; PS_PIDCOL="2"; HEAD_FLAGS="-n 1" +elif [ $UNAME = "Linux" ]; then + PS_FLAGS="ax"; PS_PIDCOL="1"; HEAD_FLAGS="-n 1" elif [ $UNAME = "SunOS" ]; then PS_FLAGS="-af"; PS_PIDCOL=2; HEAD_FLAGS="-n 1" else
