ngIRCd 0.11.0
by Alexander Barton 16 Jan '08

16 Jan '08

Hello! After releasing ngIRCd 0.10.4, which is "only" a bug-fix release, we are going to release our new "major release" 0.11.0 containing new features: the most prominent is the introduction of the "MaxNickLength" configuration option, which enables administrators to define the maxmimum nick name length dynamically. As usual, ngIRCd 0.11.0 can be downloaded from: <ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/ngircd/ngircd-0.11.0.tar.gz> <ftp://ngircd.barton.de/pub/ngircd/ngircd-0.11.0.tar.gz> GnuPG signatures and a patch from 0.10.4 are available and can be downloaded from here: <ftp://ngircd.berlios.de/pub/ngircd/> <ftp://ngircd.barton.de/pub/ngircd/> The 0.11.x branch is tagged as "branch-0-11-x" in CVS, and this release is tagged as "rel-0-11-0". The NEWS file of ngIRCd 0.11.0 lists the following enhancements: - Add support for /STAT u (server uptime) command. - New [Server] configuration Option "Bind" allows to specify the source ip adress to use when connecting to remote server. - New configuration option "MaxNickLength" to specify the allowed length of user nick names. Note: must be unique in an IRC network! - Numeric 317: implemented "signon time" (displayed in WHOIS result). - Added new server configuration option "Passive" for "Server" blocks to disable automatic outgoing connections (similar to -p option to ngircd, but only for the specified server). (Tassilo Schweyer) - Added support for the WALLOPS command. Usage is restricted to IRC operators. You can view the complete NEWS and ChangeLog files online here: <http://ngircd.barton.de/doc/NEWS> <http://ngircd.barton.de/doc/ChangeLog> There have been no changes since ngIRCd 0.11.0-pre2. Have fun! Regards Alex

Bug 70 NOTICE doesn't take channels as targets
by Fabian Schlager 16 Jan '08

16 Jan '08

Hello, crawling through the sources and the bug tracker, I tried to solve BUG 70. As this is my first patch (and I'm not that good in programming C) I hope I did not make too many mistakes. The patch was tested on a local ngircd instance (MacOS X 10.4.11) and is attached to this mail. I haven't found any specific conditions for a user to be able to NOTICE a channel in the RFC's, so I assumed that they are the same as used for PRIVMSG, is this correct? Regards, Fabian

Authentified users

Hi ! I am trying ngircd because I love its simple configuration file :) However I have a little problem with "Operator". I define the following : [Operator] # Password of the IRC operator Password = test # Optional Mask from which /OPER will be accepted Mask = Milipili!*@* When I try to do the following : /oper Milipili test I have "bad password" In fact at the begining I would like to autoconnect a irssi client using its -w option. Where am I wrong ? -- Damien Gerard milipili(a)shikami.org People who used magic without knowing what they were doing usually came to a sticky end.

Yeah, hardcoded in one of the files, I can't remember which, but a quick grep should throw light on the matter; I couldn't be bothered re-compiling, and currently tollerate it as it as (on the principle that imo, the daemon's still a lot better than hybrid/dancer.) a

Hi, I can't figure out how to leave an away message that's longer than one word. The server complains, saying "away Syntax Error" What do I need to do? Thanks.
