The following is a list of major changes between ircd-ratbox-1.x and
|
|
||||||
ircd-ratbox-2.0
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Config File
|
|
||||||
-----------
|
|
||||||
- name="foo"; is no longer supported in connect {}; operator {}; and
|
|
||||||
class {};. You must now use connect "irc.foo.com" { ... }; etc.
|
|
||||||
- operator {}; no longer contains a class
|
|
||||||
- kline_with_connection_closed is gone, replaced with
|
|
||||||
kline_reason = "Connection closed";
|
|
||||||
- logging {}; is gone, replaced with more advanced log system - see
|
|
||||||
example.conf log {}; for more info. Note, by default only very basic
|
|
||||||
information will be logged.
|
|
||||||
- support for a specific opers initial umodes on /oper, by umodes = ...;
|
|
||||||
in operator {};
|
|
||||||
- added stats_e_disabled = yes|no; to general {};, controlling whether stats
|
|
||||||
e (which can contain server ips) is never shown to anyone
|
|
||||||
- support for compressed|encrypted|topicburst|autoconn = yes|no; is gone,
|
|
||||||
replaced with flags = compressed, encrypted, topicburst, autoconn;
|
|
||||||
- support for individual auth flags "kline_exempt = yes"; etc removed, now
|
|
||||||
must use flags = ...; method
|
|
||||||
- support for individual oper flags "kline = yes;" etc removed, now must use
|
|
||||||
flags = ...; method.
|
|
||||||
- extended flags = ...; method to allow negation, so you may prefix a flag
|
|
||||||
with '~' to negate it. Default oper flags are operwall, remoteban and
|
|
||||||
encrypted (indicates password is encrypted with mkpasswd)
|
|
||||||
- new flags in shared {};, tkline, txline and tresv, allowing temp only of
|
|
||||||
kline, xline and resv respectively.
|
|
||||||
- new flags in cluster {}; tkline, txline and tresv which will cluster
|
|
||||||
only the temp of each type. kline, xline and resv will now only
|
|
||||||
cluster the permanent ones of each type.
|
|
||||||
- cluster {}; no longer allows a server to place klines etc locally, it
|
|
||||||
simply dictates who we send to.
|
|
||||||
- shared {}; is now ordered top-down and the first one that matches the
|
|
||||||
user@host and server will be used, and the flags taken from this. This
|
|
||||||
means if a remote oper matches a shared block without kline privs, even
|
|
||||||
though there is a shared {}; block they match under it with kline privs
|
|
||||||
they will not be able to place klines.
|
|
||||||
- added invite_ops_only to channel {}; which will restrict the use of INVITE
|
|
||||||
to chanops on that channel always, rather than just to +i chans.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Client
|
|
||||||
------
|
|
||||||
- /help is now available for all users, as its now cached in memory.
|
|
||||||
removes config option use_help from general {};
|
|
||||||
- default CHANNELLEN for local clients is now 50
|
|
||||||
- AWAYLEN added to 005, default is 90
|
|
||||||
- kick/part/quit now use REASONLEN (120) rather than TOPICLEN
|
|
||||||
- umode +g now exempts users messaging themselves
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Oper
|
|
||||||
----
|
|
||||||
- kline/dline <nick> is no longer supported
|
|
||||||
- oper reasons are now more fully supported
|
|
||||||
- opers can now be hidden from stats p, by flag "invisible"
|
|
||||||
- XLINEs no longer contain a type field, theyll now all just silently reject
|
|
||||||
- xlines are now 'tracked' - stats X shows how many times each xline has
|
|
||||||
rejected a client
|
|
||||||
- temp xlines and resvs
|
|
||||||
- klines set against spoofed users will now take effect when the user
|
|
||||||
connects as well, if the user is not kline_exempt
|
|
||||||
- trace spy now contains target param if its against a single user
|
|
||||||
- the old "you need xline=yes;" notices have been replaced by ERR_NOPRIVS
|
|
||||||
(numeric 723)
|
|
||||||
- umode +C, machine parsable client connect/exit notices which includes the
|
|
||||||
two unused fields sent in the USER command
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Channels
|
|
||||||
--------
|
|
||||||
- persistent channels have been removed
|
|
||||||
- quiet_on_ban now uses a cache, which should speed it up
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Server <-> Server Protocol
|
|
||||||
--------------------------
|
|
||||||
- support for bursting away messages on connect, controlled by
|
|
||||||
burst_away = yes|no; in general {};
|
|
||||||
- TS6, the new server <-> server protocol. As part of this you *must*
|
|
||||||
specify a "sid" in serverinfo {}; that is three alphanumeric characters,
|
|
||||||
and must start with a digit. use_ts6 = yes|no; in general controls
|
|
||||||
whether it is actually used or not. For more information, see:
|
|
||||||
http://www.ircd-ratbox.org/TS6.txt
|
|
||||||
- fakename in connect {}; is gone, you can no longer mask servers.
|
|
||||||
- support for encrypted links are gone
|
|
||||||
- global capabilities. The server will now inform the rest of the network
|
|
||||||
over ENCAP about the capabilities of other servers.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Misc
|
|
||||||
----
|
|
||||||
- support for message translation has been removed. If you want these,
|
|
||||||
modify messages.tab and distribute that.
|
|
||||||
- most of server hiding is gone, only thing that is left is flattened links
|
|
||||||
- flattened links cache is now stored in memory instead of a file
|
|
||||||
- nick delay. any client which splits will have their nick 'locked', until
|
|
||||||
a remote client uses this nick, or until it expires after the time nick_delay
|
|
||||||
in general {}. This prevents the masses of kills from clients 'regaining'
|
|
||||||
nicknames on a short split.
|
|
||||||
- support for disabling bold chars etc in channel names for local users, to
|
|
||||||
prevent faking channels. disable_fake_channels = <yes|no>; in general {};
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Code cleanups
|
|
||||||
-------------
|
|
||||||
- remove mapped ipv4 in ipv6 sockets, the correct native socket will now be
|
|
||||||
used for each.
|
|
||||||
- module API has been rewritten, 1.x modules will no longer work.
|
|
||||||
- hook API has been rewritten
|
|
||||||
- proper handlers for ENCAP commands
|
|
||||||
- support for vms ast i/o
|
|
||||||
- connect {}; and operator {}; are now in their own structs, saving memory
|
|
||||||
in ConfItem
|
|
||||||
- shared/cluster now use the same struct and flags
|
|
||||||
- various other code cleanups thatd take all year to list ;)

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
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.
