Let IRC_MODE() detect that the "fake" MODE command originated on the local
sever, which enables all modes to be settable using "DefaultUserModes"
that can be set by regular MODE commands, including modes only settable by
IRC Operators.
ngIRCd relaxes its flood protection for users having the user mode "F" set
and allows them to rapidly send data to the daemon. This mode is only
settable by IRC Operators and can cause problems in the network -- so be
careful and only set it on "trusted" clients!
User mode "F" is used by Bahamut for this purpose, for example, see
<http://docs.dal.net/docs/modes.html#4.9>.
The new configuration variable "Network" is used to set the (completely
optional) "network name", to which this instance of the daemon belongs.
When set, this name is used in the ISUPPORT(005) numeric which is sent to
all clients connecting to the server after logging in.
Closes bug #165.
This patch introduces the possibility to arbitrarily select ciphers which
should be promoted resp. declined when establishing a SSL connection
with a client by implementing the new configuration option "CipherList".
By default, OpenSSL would accept low and medium strength and RC-4 ciphers,
which nowadays are known to be broken.
This patch only implements the feature for OpenSSL. A GnuTLS counterpart
has to be implemented in another patch ...
Original patch by Bastian <bastian-ngircd@t6l.de>.
Closes bug #162.
The new configuration option "DefaultUserModes" lists user modes that
become automatically set on new local clients right after login.
Please note that only modes can be set that the client could set on
itself, you can't set "a" (away) or "o" (IRC Op), for example! User
modes "i" (invisible) or "x" (cloaked) etc. are "interesting", though.
Default: set no modes (like without this patch).
Closes bug #160.
The new configuration variable "AllowedChannelTypes" lists all allowed
channel types (channel prefixes) for newly created channels on the local
server. By default, all supported channel types are allowed.
If set to the empty string, local clients can't create new channels at
all, which equals the old "PredefChannelsOnly = yes" setting.
This patch deprecates the "PredefChannelsOnly" variable, too, but it is
still supported and translated to the apropriate "AllowedChannelTypes"
setting. When "PredefChannelsOnly" is processed, a warning message is
logged.
Closes bug #152.
The option "IncludeDir" in the [Options] section can be used
to specify a directory which can contain further configuration
files and configuration file snippets matching the pattern
"*.conf" that should be read in after the main configuration
file ("ngircd.conf" by default) has been parsed.
Closes bug #157.
