******************************* IMPORTANT *************************************
|
|
|
|
*********** 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" *
|
|
* will be installed with your ircd! *
|
|
*************************************************************************
|
|
|
|
ALSO, IF YOU ARE UPGRADING YOUR CURRENT SOURCE TREE, AND YOU TRY TO BUILD
|
|
IN IT WITHOUT PERFORMING AT LEAST 'make clean', THINGS _WILL_ BREAK. IT IS
|
|
RECOMMENDED THAT YOU RUN 'make distclean' AND THEN RERUN './configure'!
|
|
|
|
******************************* REQUIREMENTS **********************************
|
|
|
|
New Features - A short introduction:
|
|
- Please see NEWS for more detailed changes.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Necessary Requirements:
|
|
|
|
- A supported platform (look below)
|
|
|
|
- A working dynamic load library, unless
|
|
compiling as static, without module
|
|
support.
|
|
|
|
- A working lex. Solaris /usr/ccs/bin/lex
|
|
appears to be broken, on this system flex
|
|
should be used.
|
|
|
|
- A working parser/generator. bison is
|
|
recommended on most platforms.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Feature Specific Requirements:
|
|
|
|
- For SSL Clients, SSL Challenge controlled OPER feature, and encrypted server links,
|
|
a working OpenSSL library
|
|
|
|
- For encrypted oper and (optional) server passwords, a working DES, MD5, or SHA library.
|
|
|
|

|
- To report bugs in ShadowIRCd, visit us at irc.thinstack.net #shadowircd
|
|
|
|
- See the INSTALL document for info on configuring and compiling
|
|
ShadowIRCd.
|
|
|
|
- Please read doc/index.txt to get an overview of the current documentation.
|
|
|
|
- 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"
|
|
|
|
- SOLARIS USERS: this code appears to tickle a bug in older gcc and
|
|
egcs ONLY on 64-bit Solaris7. gcc-2.95 and SunPro C on 64bit should
|
|
work fine, and any gcc or SunPro compiled on 32bit.
|
|
|
|
- DARWIN AND MACOS X USERS: You must be using at least the December 2001
|
|
Development Tools from Apple to build charybdis with shared modules.
|
|
Before then you MUST disable shared modules, as we do not have the proper
|
|
flags for cc(1) prior to that point to produce shared modules.
|
|
|
|
- SUPPORTED PLATFORMS: this code should compile without any warnings on:
|
|
FreeBSD 6.x/7.x/8.x,
|
|
Gentoo & Gentoo Hardened ~x86/~amd64/~fbsd
|
|
Fedora 8/9 / CentOS 4/5 / Redhat Enterprise 5
|
|
Debian Etch/Lenny/Squeeze,
|
|
OpenSuSE 10/11,
|
|
ArchLinux,
|
|
OpenSolaris 2008.x?
|
|
Solaris 10 sparc.
|
|
|
|
Please let us know if you find otherwise.
|
|
It probably does not compile on AIX, IRIX or libc5 Linux.
|
|
|
|
- TESTED PLATFORMS: The code has been tested on the following platforms, and
|
|
is known to run properly.
|
|
FreeBSD 6.x/7.x/8.x
|
|
Linux glibc-2.6, glibc-2.7, glibc-2.8, glibc-2.10, glibc-2.11
|
|
Solaris 2.6/7/8
|
|
OpenBSD 2.8
|
|
NetBSD 1.4
|
|
OpenVMS/Alpha 7.2 (static modules, no ssld)
|
