| Note for those who dont bother reading docs |
| |
| Reading INSTALL is now a must, as the old DPATH is now specified when |
| configure is run. |
| |
| - You now need to ./configure --prefix="/path/to/install/it" |
| |
| Important: The old config format WILL NOT WORK. Please see point 6! |
| |
| The old kline format WILL NOT WORK. Please see point 7! |

Look over the "include/config.h" file. This allows you to change the
few remaining hard coded options of how the ircd will operate. Most
admins will only have to change a few settings. USE_SYSLOG is the only
one that most admins will need to edit.
Note: Note that you must have permission by the sysadmin to send
messages to the system log files.
All other settings in config.h are not necessary to edit.
