Make all channels permanent, by default?
by Duncan Bayne 25 Mär '18

25 Mär '18

Hi All, I'm trying to use ngircd in such a manner that all channels are: (a) persisted by default, even if created by non-privileged users, and (b) persisted between restarts of the daemon >From reading the docs I gather (b) 'just happens' with +P, but I have no idea how to achieve (a). Could someone please point me at the relevant documentation? Thanks :) -- Duncan Bayne +61 420 817 082 | https://duncan.bayne.id.au/ I usually check my mail every 24 - 48 hours. If there's something urgent going on, please send me an SMS or call me.

ngircd 24 for VoCore2 - mipsel/OpenWRT/uclibc
by Götz Hoffart 28 Jan '18

28 Jan '18

Hi, ngircd 24 runs on the VoCore2 mini computer (mipsel/OpenWRT/uclibc): http://vocore.io/v2.html <http://vocore.io/v2.html> Build system is Ubuntu 14.04 LTS x86_64 for cross-compiling, with the VoCore2/OpenWRT tools installed from <http://vocore.io/v2u.html <http://vocore.io/v2u.html>> -> Downloads -> Toolchain: Download (Ubuntu 14.04 x64). 1) Unpack the toolchain I unpacked these to ~/vocore2 and removed the "outer-shell" directories. 2) Prepare cross-build $ PATH=$PATH:/home/goetz/vocore2/bin $ export PATH $ STAGING_DIR=/home/goetz/vocore2/ $ export STAGING_DIR 3) Fix "resolve.c" Otherwise we’ll run into [1]: $ diff ngircd-24/src/ngircd/resolve-orig.c ngircd-24/src/ngircd/resolve.c 112,113d111 < #if !defined(HAVE_GETADDRINFO) || !defined(HAVE_GETNAMEINFO) < #if !defined(WANT_IPV6) && defined(h_errno) 130,131d127 < #endif < #endif Basically, we need to “enforce” the definition of Get_Error. Without removing the conditionals, it will be missing and the cross-build will fail. 3) Configure for cross-build $ ./configure --build=mipsel-unknown-linux-gnu --host=mipsel-openwrt-linux-uclibc --build=x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu Check that the line checking whether we are cross compiling... yes is there. The summary should look similar to: ngIRCd 24 has been configured with the following options: Host: mipsel-openwrt-linux-uclibc Compiler: mipsel-openwrt-linux-uclibc-gcc -std=gnu99 Compiler flags: -g -O2 -pipe -W -Wall -Wpointer-arith -Wstrict-prototypes -DSYSCONFDIR='"$(sysconfdir)"' -DDOCDIR='"$(docdir)"' 'ngircd' binary: /usr/local/sbin Configuration file: /usr/local/etc Manual pages: /usr/local/share/man Documentation: /usr/local/share/doc/ngircd Syslog support: yes Enable debug code: no zlib compression: no IRC sniffer: no Use TCP Wrappers: no Strict RFC mode: no IDENT support: no IRC+ protocol: yes IPv6 protocol: no I/O backend: epoll(), select() PAM support: no SSL support: no libiconv support: no 4) Build ngircd from source $ make CC=mipsel-openwrt-linux-uclibc-gcc LD=mipsel-openwrt-linux-uclibc-ld 5) Check correct binary type $ file src/ngircd/ngircd src/ngircd/ngircd: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, MIPS, MIPS32 rel2 version 1, dynamically linked (uses shared libs), not stripped Looking good! Now you can copy over the binary to your VoCore2 and run it.

ngIRCd Release 24
by Alexander Barton 20 Jan '17

20 Jan '17

Hello All! Here it is, the next stable version of ngIRCd, the free, portable and lightweight Internet Relay Chat server for small or private networks: ngIRCd Release 24! You can download ngIRCd from the download section on our homepage <https://ngircd.barton.de> (<https://ngircd.mirror.3rz.org>), the primary download locations are: • https://ngircd.barton.de/pub/ngircd/ • https://ngircd.mirror.3rz.org/pub/ngircd/ The NEWS file (<https://ngircd.barton.de/doc/NEWS>) lists the following changes since the last release: • Log privilege violations and failed OPER request with log level "error" and send it to the "&SERVER" channel, too. • Immediately shut down connection when receiving an "ERROR" command, don't wait for the peer to close the connection. This allows the daemon to forward the received "ERROR" message in the network, instead of the very generic "client closed connection" message. • Explicitly forbid remote servers to modify "x-lines" (G-LINES) when the "AllowRemoteOper" configuration option isn't set, even when the command seems to originate from the remote server itself: this prevents GLINE's to become set during server handshake in this case (what wouldn't be possible during regular runtime when a remote IRC Op sends the command) and what can't be undone by IRC Ops later on (because of the missing "AllowRemoteOper" option) ... • Update Xcode project for latest Xcode version (8.0), and fix "duplicate symbols" error messages when building (linking) the binary. • Add "Documentation" variables to systemd configuration files. • Make sure that SYSCONFDIR is always set, which can be handy when using source code linters when ./configure hasn't been run already. • Add the new "PAMServiceName" configuration option to specify the name used as PAM service name. This setting allows to run multiple ngIRCd instances with different PAM configurations for each instance. Thanks to Christian Aistleitner <christian(a)quelltextlich.at> for the patch, closes #226. • Add an ".editorconfig" file to the project. • Limit the number of message target, and suppress duplicates: This prevents an user from flooding the server using commands like this: "PRIVMSG nick1,nick1,nick1,...". Duplicate targets are suppressed silently (channels and clients). In addition, the maximum number of targets per PRIVMSG, NOTICE, ... command are limited to MAX_HNDL_TARGETS (25). If there are more, the daemon sends the new 407 (ERR_TOOMANYTARGETS_MSG) numeric, containing the first target that hasn't been handled any more. Closes #187. • Make contrib/platformtest.sh script more portable, and only show "runs=Y" when the test suite really has been passed successfully. Please see the ChangeLog (<https://ngircd.barton.de/doc/ChangeLog>) for a complete list of all changes, or even read the Git commit history at GitHub (<https://github.com/ngircd/ngircd>) -- there you can find our issue tracker as well. THANK YOU to all users, bug reporters, contributors, packagers, testers, and supporters: this release wouldn't have been possible without your work and support! Have fun! Alex

ngIRCd Release 24~rc1
by Alexander Barton 08 Jan '17

08 Jan '17

Hello all! More than a year after our last stable release, quite a few patches and bug fixes found their way into our source tree. So here it is: the first release candidate for ngIRCd 24, the lightweight and portable Internet Relay Chat server for small and private networks. You can download this release candidate from the download section on our homepage <https://ngircd.barton.de> (<https://ngircd.mirror.3rz.org>), the primary download locations are: • https://ngircd.barton.de/pub/ngircd/ • https://ngircd.mirror.3rz.org/pub/ngircd/ Please help test this release candidate, and report any issues you find to this mailing list or on IRC: <irc://irc.barton.de/ngircd>. Enhancements to the documentation and the homepage are welcome as well! The easiest way to test ngIRCd is to run the ./contrib/platformtest.sh script: $ curl -#LO "https://ngircd.barton.de/pub/ngircd/ngircd-24~rc1.tar.gz" $ tar xzf "ngircd-24~rc1.tar.gz" $ cd "ngircd-24~rc1" $ ./contrib/platformtest.sh This script runs quire some time, which is normal, but please report all problems! The result should look something like this: > the executable works ("runs") as expected --+ > tests run successfully ("make check") --+ | > ngIRCd compiles ("make") --+ | | > ./configure works --+ | | | > | | | | > Platform Compiler ngIRCd Date Tester C M T R * > --------------------------- ------------ ---------- -------- -------- - - - - - > x86_64/pc/linux-gnu gcc 4.9.2 24~rc1 17-01-08 alex Y Y Y Y 1 In addition I'm curious to add and update systems to the list of tested platforms (doc/Platforms.txt); so please send updates for this file when you are on some "exotic" OS and/or compiler which is lacking or outdated there (I can test Linux and OS X myself, no need to report this). Please feel free to use the issue tracker on GitHub and/or create "pull requests" there, so we can easily keep track of them: • https://github.com/ngircd/ngircd • https://github.com/ngircd/ngircd/issues The ChangeLog lists the following items since release 23: • Log privilege violations and failed OPER request with log level "error" and send it to the "&SERVER" channel, too. • Immediately shut down connection when receiving an "ERROR" command, don't wait for the peer to close the connection. This allows the daemon to forward the received "ERROR" message in the network, instead of the very generic "client closed connection" message. • Fix sending of entry duration (no negative values!) when synchronizing "x-lines" (G-LINES). • List expiration (G-LINES): use same log level as when setting, and log this event to the &SERVER channel, too. • Explicitly forbid remote servers to modify "x-lines" (G-LINES) when the "AllowRemoteOper" configuration option isn't set, even when the command seems to originate from the remote server itself: this prevents GLINE's to become set during server handshake in this case (what wouldn't be possible during regular runtime when a remote IRC Op sends the command) and what can't be undone by IRC Ops later on (because of the missing "AllowRemoteOper" option) ... • Make scripts and init-files in ./contrib executable. • Fix building ngIRCd with OpenSSL 1.1. Thanks to Christoph Biedl <ngircd.anoy(a)manchmal.in-ulm.de> for the patch! • Fix code indentation warnings of gcc 6.2. • Update config.guess (2016-04-02) and config.sub (2016-03-30) files. • Fix warnings of the "shellcheck" linter in autogen.sh, contrib/ngindent and contrib/platformtest.sh. • Update Xcode project for latest Xcode version (8.0), and fix "duplicate symbols" error messages when building (linking) the binary. • Add "Documentation" variables to systemd configuration files. • Make sure that SYSCONFDIR is always set, which can be handy when using source code linters when ./configure hasn't been run already. • Add the new "PAMServiceName" configuration option to specify the name used as PAM service name. This setting allows to run multiple ngIRCd instances with different PAM configurations for each instance. Thanks to Christian Aistleitner <christian(a)quelltextlich.at> for the patch, closes #226. • Add an ".editorconfig" file to the project. • Travis-CI: use "container-based infrastructure". • Limit the number of message targets, and suppress duplicates: This prevents an user from flooding the server using commands like this: "PRIVMSG nick1,nick1,nick1,...". Duplicate targets are suppressed silently (channels and clients). In addition, the maximum number of targets per PRIVMSG, NOTICE, ... command are limited to MAX_HNDL_TARGETS (25). If there are more, the daemon sends the new 407 (ERR_TOOMANYTARGETS_MSG) numeric, containing the first target that hasn't been handled any more. Closes #187. • Test suite: Add new test for server-server logins. • contrib/ngindent: Fix shebang line. • Make contrib/platformtest.sh script more portable, and only show "runs=Y" when the test suite really has been passed successfully. • Code cleanup in the NJON handler and the function killing clients as well as the function sending messages to a "mask" (cleaner code, more fault tolerant, better code comments). • Update and enhance documentation: README file, doc/Platforms.txt, doc/Modes.txt, doc/Commands.txt, doc/PAM.txt. • Fix NJOIN not propagating "half ops" status: ngIRCd tested for the wrong prefix of "half ops" when processing NJOIN commands and therefore never classified a remote user as "half op". Thanks to wowaname for pointing this out on #ngircd! Thanks a lot to all contributors! Alex

Building against openssl 1.1
by Christoph Biedl 05 Dez '16

05 Dez '16

Hello, at the moment, ngircd fails to build against openssl 1.1 since the configure check probes for the SSL_library_init symbol which was removed. Since however ngircd does not use that symbol (and appearently this did not break execution), probing for a different function availabe in both version solves that problem. Was tested (./autogen.sh && ./configure --with-openssl && make) on both Debian jessie (openssl 1.0.2) and stretch with openssl 1.1 installed. Cheers, Christoph
