ngIRCd Release 19
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- New configuration option "PAMIsOptional": when set, clients not
|
||||||
|
sending a password are still allowed to connect: they won't become
|
||||||
|
"identified" and keep the "~" character prepended to their supplied
|
||||||
|
user name. See "man 5 ngircd.conf" for details.
|
||||||
|
- Fixed handling of WHO commands. This fixes two bugs: "WHO <nick>"
|
||||||
|
returned nothing at all if the user was "+i" (reported by Cahata,
|
||||||
|
thanks) and "WHO <nick|nickmask>" returned channel names instead
|
||||||
|
of "*" when the user was member of a (visible) channel.
|
||||||
|
- Fixed some spelling errors in documentation and code comments
|
||||||
|
(Thanks to Christoph Biedl).
|
||||||
|
- contrib/Debian/control: Update and complete "Build-Depends" and
|
||||||
|
update our Debian package descriptions with "official" ones.
|
||||||
|
- Fixed typo in two error messages.
|
||||||
|
- LUSERS reply: only count channels that are visible to the requesting
|
||||||
|
client, so the existence of secret channels is no longer revealed by
|
||||||
|
using LUSERS. Reported by Cahata, thanks!
|
||||||
|
- Unknown user and channel modes no longer stop the mode parser, but
|
||||||
|
are simply ignored. Therefore modes after the unknown one are now
|
||||||
|
handled. This is how ircd2.10/ircd2.11/ircd-seven behave, at least.
|
||||||
|
Reported by Cahata, thanks!
|
||||||
|
- README: Update list of implemented commands.
|
||||||
|
- Log better error messages when rejecting clients.
|
||||||
|
- Implement IRC commands "GLINE" and "KLINE" to ban users. G-Lines are
|
||||||
|
synchronized between server on peering, K-Lines are local only.
|
||||||
|
- Xcode: update project file for Xcode 4.2 and define HAVE_GAI_STRERROR
|
||||||
|
for Mac OS X Xcode builds.
|
||||||
|
- ./configure: Fix logic and quoting of poll() detection code: only use
|
||||||
|
poll() when poll.h exists as well.
|
||||||
|
- Suppress 'Can't create pre-defined channel: invalid name: ""' message.
|
||||||
|
- whois-test: handle local hostname = "localhost.localdomain" using the
|
||||||
|
pattern "localhost*" for valid local hostnames.
|
||||||
|
- sample-ngircd.conf: show correct default for "PAM" variable: The
|
||||||
|
default of "PAM" is "yes" when ngIRCd has been configured to use it,
|
||||||
|
so show the correct default value in the sample configuration file.
|
||||||
|
(Closes #119)
|
||||||
|
- Update GPL 2 license text to current version.
|
||||||
|
- Only close "unrelated" sockets in forked child processes: This fixes
|
||||||
|
the problem that ngIRCd can't do any IDENT lookups because of the
|
||||||
|
socket has already been closed in the child process.
|
||||||
|
The bug has been introduced starting with ngIRCd 17 ... :-(
|
||||||
|
(commit ID 6ebb31ab35e)
|
||||||
|
- Added doc/Modes.txt: document modes supported by ngIRCd.
|
||||||
|
- Implement user mode "R": indicates that the nick name of this user
|
||||||
|
is "registered". This mode isn't handled by ngIRCd itself, but must
|
||||||
|
be set and unset by IRC services like Anope.
|
||||||
|
- Implement channel mode "R": only registered users (having the user
|
||||||
|
mode "R" set) are allowed to join this channel.
|
||||||
|
- Test suite: bind to loopback (127.0.0.1) interface only.
|
||||||
|
- New 2nd message "Nickname too long" for error code 432.
|
||||||
|
- Xcode: Mac OS X config.h: support 10.5 as well as 10.6/10.7 SDK.
|
||||||
|
- Xcode: exclude more Xcode 4 specific directories in ".gitignore".
|
||||||
|
- Disconnect directly linked servers sending QUIT. Without this,
|
||||||
|
the server becomes removed from the network and the client list,
|
||||||
|
but the connection isn't shut down at all ...
|
||||||
|
- contrib/ngindent: detect "gindent" as GNU indent.
|
||||||
|
- Handle unknown user and channel modes: these modes are saved and
|
||||||
|
forwarded to other servers, but ignored otherwise.
|
||||||
|
- Handle channel user modes 'a', 'h', and 'q' from remote servers.
|
||||||
|
These channel user modes aren't used for anything at the moment,
|
||||||
|
but ngIRCd knows that these three modes are "channel user modes"
|
||||||
|
and not "channel modes", that is that these modes take an "nick name"
|
||||||
|
argument. Like unknown user and channel modes, these modes are saved
|
||||||
|
and forwarded to other servers, but ignored otherwise.
|
||||||
|
- Correctly inform clients when other servers change their user modes.
|
||||||
|
This is required for some services to work correctly.
|
||||||
|
- Test suite: make getpid.sh work even when run as root.
|
||||||
|
- Spoofed prefixes: close connection on non-server links only.
|
||||||
|
On server-links, spoofed prefixes can happen because of the
|
||||||
|
asynchronous nature of the IRC protocol. So don't break server-
|
||||||
|
links, only log a message and ignore the command. (Closes #113)
