Configuration variables "MotdFile" and "MotdPhrase" are mutually
exclusive; so don't display content in both of them when running
"ngircd --configtest": instead remember which one is beeing used.
The information written to the "error file" (/tmp/ngircd-<PID>.err) when
ngIRCd is compiled with debug code enabled isn't that usefule, so don't
create this file at all.
- Add generated sample-ngircd.conf to new .gitignore file,
- refactor Makefile.am to generate sample-ngircd.conf on "make all",
to clean it up on "make clean", and to install it to the correct place.
- Make sure path names in sample-ngircd.conf are separated by "/".
If a hostname resolves to more than one IP address (round-robin DNS,
IPv4 and IPv6) and an attempt to connect to the first address fails,
ngIRCd should try to connect to the 2nd address, 3rd address etc.
But because of a wrong variable used in the call to New_Server(),
the wrong server structure has been used in further connection attemps
which possibly lead to connection attempts to already connected servers.
This is required for backwards compatibility when installing the -full
or -full-dbg package variant: PAM is enabled now but no configuration
present, so all login attempts would be denied ...
Creating /etc/pam.d/ngircd including "auth required pam_permit.so"
restores the old behaviour of allowing all connections.
disable pam_fail_delay() only is available starting with Mac
OS X 10.6; but we use the 10.5 SDK for campatibility, so don't use
this function at all when building using Xcode.
Now the ngIRCd release/version number is deduced from the "current"
annotated GIT tag; see "git describe --help" for details. This is the
same scheme the Linux kernel uses and gives much more details version
numbers for interim releases and inofficial source archives generated
using "make dist".
Please note: the version number is only updated it the autogen.sh
script is run; so after pulling in and pushing out new commits, you
should run ./autogen.sh!
This allows to compile ngIRCd using a pre-ANSI K&R C compiler again:
all source files are automatically converted by the included ansi2knr
program (of GNU automake/autoconf) before compiling them with the
K&R C compiler, but a few coding standards must be met.
Tested on Apple A/UX 3.x.
Regression testing on Linux and Mac OS X.
If ngIRCd is compiled to register its services using ZeroConf (e.g. using
Howl, Avahi or on Mac OS X) this parameter can be used to disable service
registration at runtime.
This fixes the following gcc compiler warning:
tool.c: In function 'ngt_SyslogFacilityName':
tool.c:195: warning: return discards qualifiers from pointer target type
