- Old Hybrid 5/6 configuration files are no longer supported. All conf

files will have to be converted to the new format. A convertconf
|

utility is provided and installed into bin/.
|

|

- If you are wondering why config.h is practically empty, its because many
|
||||
things that were once in config.h are now specified in the 'general'
|
||||
block of ircd.conf. Look at example.conf for more information about
|
||||
these options.

|

- The files, /etc/services, /etc/protocols, and /etc/resolv.conf, MUST be
|

readable by the user running the server in order for ircd to start.
|
||||
Errors from adns causing the ircd to refuse to start up are often related
|
||||
to permission problems on these files.

- FREEBSD USERS: if you are compiling with ipv6 you may experience
|
||||
problems with ipv4 due to the way the socket code is written. To

fix this you must: "sysctl net.inet6.ip6.v6only=0"
