The following is a list of the major changes between ircd-ratbox-2.0 and
|
||
|
|
ircd-ratbox-2.1.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Config file
|
||
|
|
-----------
|
||
|
|
- IP entries within exempt {}; can now be stacked, eg:
|
||
|
|
exempt { ip = "127.0.0.1"; ip = "192.168.0.0/24"; };
|
||
|
|
- shared {}; has been completely reworked so that it allows stacking.
|
||
|
|
shared {}; blocks for 2.0 and earlier will no longer work.
|
||
|
|
See example.conf for the new format.
|
||
|
|
- cluster {}; has been reworked to allow stacking.
|
||
|
|
cluster {}; blocks for 2.0 and earlier will no longer work.
|
||
|
|
See example.conf for the new format.
|
||
|
|
- New auth flag, jupe_exempt. When set on a client, that client will not
|
||
|
|
generate jupe warning notices when they try to join juped channels.
|
||
|
|
- You may no longer specify klines, dlines, xlines and resvs in ircd.conf.
|
||
|
|
Instead, there is no support for banconfigs with a ".perm" extension,
|
||
|
|
eg kline.conf.perm. Anything within a .perm file will be read, but
|
||
|
|
cannot be removed via the ircd. The format of these files is the same
|
||
|
|
format as their normal non-permanent counterpart. So kline.conf.perm
|
||
|
|
takes the same format as kline.conf, and so on.
|
||
|
|
- rehash and kill -HUP no longer reread the ban configs kline.conf etc.
|
||
|
|
You must now use /rehash bans, or kill -USR2
|
||
|
|
- New config option to general {};, dline_with_reason = yes|no;. Default no.
|
||
|
|
Traditionally, when a client connects and is dlined, the reason is never
|
||
|
|
shown. Enabling this will output the reason to clients.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Client
|
||
|
|
------
|
||
|
|
- Support for "deaf", umode +D. When a client is 'deaf', they will not
|
||
|
|
receive any messages sent towards channels. They will still receive joins
|
||
|
|
etc, but normal channel chat will not be sent. Any private messages
|
||
|
|
will still be sent.
|
||
|
|
- Target change anti-spam system. Restrictions are now placed upon how many
|
||
|
|
different clients (not channels) can be messaged within a specific time
|
||
|
|
period.
|
||
|
|
- Server-side notify lists. These allow a client to request a server
|
||
|
|
notifies them when a nickname comes online or goesoffline. See
|
||
|
|
doc/monitor.txt for more information.
|
||
|
|
- Client capabilities. These allow clients to negotiate capabilities with
|
||
|
|
the server. Currently supports:
|
||
|
|
- multi-prefix: A +ov client will have "@+" shown in names/who replies.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Oper
|
||
|
|
----
|
||
|
|
- RESVs are now tracked. Stats q/Q have been modified so that the first
|
||
|
|
field of the output is now a number indicating how many times the RESV
|
||
|
|
has been hit.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
ratbox-services support (non-efnet)
|
||
|
|
-----------------------------------
|
||
|
|
- For those of you using ratbox-services, there is now compatibility code
|
||
|
|
within ircd, enabled by passing '--enable-services' to configure.
|
||
|
|
See doc/services.txt for more information.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Code cleanups
|
||
|
|
-------------
|
||
|
|
- Removed the custom file implementation, use the system one instead.
|
||
|
|
- The hook system has been redesigned, theres now a more thorough set of
|
||
|
|
hooks that may be used. See docs/hooks.txt
|
||
|
|
- Removed support for VMS. It hasnt worked for a long time.
|
||
|
|
- Cleanups to the expiry of temp klines/dlines.
|
||
|
|
- Various other things ;-).
|
||
|
|
- Better splitcode, it now works on how many servers have notified
|
||
|
|
us of burst finishing, rather than how many servers are linked to the
|
||
|
|
network.
