re; PredefChannelsOnly = yes
Hey there, Thanks for the; PredefChannelsOnly = yes advice. I tried putting it in the global and then the channel section, and it is not doing the job I put it in my /usr/local/etc/ngircd.conf and then stopped and started the ngirdc is there a trick I am missing? Cheers! RichGriese@gmail.com

Does ngircd --configtest output the PredefChannelsOnly correctly? What version are you using?
I put it in my /usr/local/etc/ngircd.conf and then stopped and started the ngirdc
/RELOAD or pkill -HUP ngircd should be sufficient for this option to take effect.
stupid question.... how can i determine what version I am running? Cheers! RichGriese@gmail.com On Aug 13, 2010, at 5:30 PM, Florian Westphal wrote:

then the ngircd binary is not in PATH. Try "locate ngircd" to find it. Alternatively, ngircd outputs the version when new clients connect: 00:02 -!- Irssi: Connection to localhost established 00:02 -!- Welcome to the Internet Relay Network fw!~fw@127.0.0.1 00:02 -!- Your host is irc.local.strlen.de, running version ngircd-16 (i686/pc/linux-gnu) There is also a /VERSION command that should work from the irc client.
I think I am running 0.7.6 I know these two command; sudo /Library/StartupItems/ngIRCd/ngIRCd stop sudo /Library/StartupItems/ngIRCd/ngIRCd start But for the life of me... I have no idea where the actual code is running from. I got the version from the folder that I installed it from. Sorry to be such a nob. BTW.... I am running on a mac... if you happen to know where the mac install puts the actual sortware would be great if you let me know. remember the original question I have PredefChannelsOnly = yes in my /usr/local/etc/ngircd.conf but people are still about to join non predefined channels. I have a single #webulite channel set up, and that is working fine Cheers! RichGriese@gmail.com On Aug 13, 2010, at 5:36 PM, Florian Westphal wrote:

gIRCd Release 16 was done on 2010-05-02, you're actually quite out of date, circa 2003-12-05, and missing some critical or important security updates.
I know these two command; sudo /Library/StartupItems/ngIRCd/ngIRCd stop
sudo /Library/StartupItems/ngIRCd/ngIRCd start
But for the life of me... I have no idea where the actual code is running from. I got the version from the folder that I installed it from.

No worries, we all have to start some place.
BTW.... I am running on a mac... if you happen to know where the mac install puts the actual sortware would be great if you let me know.
I have no idea, I'm a GNU/Linux guy, but I assume in may be in /usr/local/sbin. I might would inspect the startup script in /Library/StartupItems/ngIRCd/ngIRCd.
remember the original question
I have
PredefChannelsOnly = yes
in my
/usr/local/etc/ngircd.conf
but people are still about to join non predefined channels. I have a single #webulite channel set up, and that is working fine

You need to update to at least ngIRCd 0.10.1 (2006-12-17) which according the changelog adds 'New configuration option "PredefChannelsOnly": if set, clients can only join predefined channels.' So, my opinion, upgrade. You'll get the security updates and the configuration settings you need to handle your behavioral needs. This also explains why the PredefChannelsOnly directive has no effect. - -evilghost -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux) iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJMZcEZAAoJENgimYXu6xOHWksP/3pI7/DbCIpz+NNxhUhXHydq GYQSKyOEc/E9ztm9T45gHsHyGdaF0FsvtO7OSyh/nn+kPIpoHPpgSF3TF0GmYIDp +omLih/xGYRMs+De8+ztnmRpgDtHuZZwiw7BVjn1OUdACHj2i1pc5/ihX1J2fLLe i6gaHEaCi3F4on6CVX22PWeJZmHkdHP2EwvGvW/RLNgH15Ng9bZJ74papaPKk7eJ FkZWAP7bJksRnavKjCacEoTQiHSpuwIyXcIbmAPnt+DlQS0QSqwf4wXBMML2LDTo qaydWjgP/HOSEfGeYNclRmHDJmX8CZkdsXIFe1mkwN/olqxiP/anpfthiYBj2tTZ OJmWMiSxWDwHk/cQnfzoI0hVRNtdnQHuIl5BKlvpVJa8RJv1TzcjeifA8+sSlG5i GfOb/XpwfnP5yy3Oh3ZXHiM3NrydA7v+pNuHIk2N/VEVKgN5fwFs8FoqoYAE8e2B 7ezqQ61SR3mdVb7I3/gL89Z71qyDN36A6gGOs+s+HknDaFC6WAXHwU2445ayA371 XhI30EUkGhRxalBu5/OJsoqke6tW8QQGlinMxEHs26BzX/E5v8h3fypN7s7uLqP6 KqMMFFN/mlXXTzbMh8mz9BsLbXf5vi1fvC1DR1Na7MzxjMDN8VtWNy1kwI1Lk5bK Wnhd93R9+po3YByigAW9 =z6NS -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

if you used darwinports/macports to install it it will be here: /opt/local/var/macports/sources/rsync.macports.org/release/ports/irc/ngircd
