Incidentally, the order of listing above is the order of auto- |

| 77 |
|
|
| 78 |
|
* --enable-openssl - Enable the openssl dependent crypto functions. |
| 79 |
|
This will allow CHALLENGE to work and encrypted links. On systems |
| 80 |
|
where the configure script can automatically detect OpenSSL, this |
| 81 |

These are optional or have default values that may be overridden: |

|
This may need to be used on some systems without a working |
| 90 |
|
dlopen/dlsym. |

* --enable-assert - Enable use of numerous debugging checks. This |
| 93 |
|
should not be used on any production servers for maximum speed |
| 94 |
|
so as to prevent cores from things that shouldn't normally happen. |
| 95 |
|
|
| 94 |
– |
* --enable-efence - Enable ElectricFence which is a memory debugger. |
| 95 |
– |
|
| 96 |
– |
* --enable-profile - Enable profiling support in ircd-hybrid. |
| 97 |
– |
|
| 98 |
– |
* --disable-block-alloc - Disable block allocations (only works with |
| 99 |
– |
ElectricFence). |
| 100 |
– |
|
| 96 |
|
* --enable-halfops - Enable halfops (%, mode +h) usage. Halfops |
| 97 |
|
are similar to plain ops, but can't kick/deop plain ops. Halfops |
| 98 |
|
may or may not kick/deop other halfops depending on if (+p) is |
| 116 |
|
maximum TOPIC length. Note that this must be consistent across your |
| 117 |
|
entire network. Defaults are 9 and 120, respectively. |
| 118 |
|
|
| 124 |
– |
* --with-maxconn - Sets the maximum number of connections the ircd |
| 125 |
– |
can support. Note that this also twiddles the HARD_FDLIMIT. |
| 126 |
– |
If HARD_FDLIMIT ends up being larger that FD_SETSIZE when using |
| 127 |
– |
select() for your I/O loop, s_bsd_select.c will refuse to compile |
| 128 |
– |
(and tell you to use poll instead). Take this error's advice and |
| 129 |
– |
use --enable-poll or something a bit more efficient. You'll be |
| 130 |
– |
happier at the end of the day for it. |
| 131 |
– |
|
| 119 |
|
* --disable-zlib - Build the ircd without ziplinks support. |
| 120 |
|
|
| 121 |
|
* --disable-gline-voting - This is good for small networks or where |
