I have been running the ngircd for a while, now and it works fine. I have been using it as a user support system, and they way I have it confirmed is that I set up a server password, and was using cgi:irc. I could with that web client prevent the /join command from working. So in effect I did not have to worry about any connecting and using any channel than the one I had set up and monitored.
The server required a password, the only one that knew the password was the cgi:irc client, and only using that client was forced to my one channel, and could not issue a /join command.
I am not having troulbe with cgi:irc on a new server.
My question. Can I set ngircd up so that users CANNOT create channels? I want to set up a mibbit widget that wil allow people to join the server, and my one user help channel, but I want to prevent anyone from doing a /join #yaya and creating another channel. I can't find anything in the docs for the .conf file, but found this mailing list and thought I would ask.
I had been limiting channel access before by the one web client i allowed to access the system. Now I want to know if I can set the ngircd server itself to limit channels.
