o) Implemented full services support, including but not limited to the |
48 |
|
|
following changes: |
49 |
michael |
1244 |
- Added SVSNICK, and SVSMODE command handlers |
50 |
|
|
- Added service stamps to NICK/UID messages |
51 |
michael |
1409 |
- Added SVS to server capabilities (CAPAB). SVS capable servers can |
52 |
michael |
1420 |
deal with extended NICK/UID messages that contain service IDs/stamps. |
53 |
lusky |
1580 |
- Changed rejected client notices to go to new usermode +j. These |
54 |
|
|
previously used usermode +r. |
55 |
|
|
- Added usermode +r (registered nick) and channelmode +r (registered channel) |
56 |
|
|
- Added usermode +R (only registered clients may send a private message) |
57 |
|
|
- Added channelmode +R (only registered clients may join that channel) |
58 |
michael |
1244 |
- Various services shortcuts have been added (/NS, /CS, /NICKSERV, /CHANSERV, etc.) |
59 |
|
|
- Added services{} block to ircd.conf |
60 |
|
|
- Added services_name directive to general{} block |
61 |
michael |
1421 |
- Added GLOBOPS mainly for services compatibility, but can be used by operators, too |
62 |
lusky |
1580 |
o) Removed RKLINE and RXLINE commands. Regular expression based bans should |
63 |
|
|
only be added via ircd.conf |
64 |
|
|
o) Added 'globops', 'restart', 'dline', 'undline' and 'module' operator |
65 |
|
|
privilege flags. Read doc/example.conf for further explanation of what |
66 |
|
|
these flags control |
67 |
|
|
o) Removed Idle-time klines |
68 |
michael |
1244 |
o) Cleaned up modules API. Old modules won't work anymore |
69 |
lusky |
1580 |
o) Removed general::burst_away configuration directive. AWAY bursts are now |
70 |
michael |
1274 |
controlled via connect::flags explicitly |
71 |
|
|
o) Introduced new logging subsystem including log rotation based on |
72 |
michael |
1418 |
file sizes. Log timestamp format is ISO8601 now |
73 |
michael |
1315 |
o) Added support for remote D-lines |
74 |
|
|
o) Added usermode +H which is basically a replacement for the hidden_admin and |
75 |
|
|
hidden_oper operator flags. With usermode +H, irc operator status can now |
76 |
|
|
be hidden even on remote servers |
77 |
michael |
1418 |
o) Added CIDR support for operator{} blocks |
78 |
lusky |
1580 |
o) Removed the servlink program. ircd-hybrid can now make use of |
79 |
|
|
SSL/TLS for inter-server communication. |
80 |
michael |
1315 |
NOTE: compressed server links are of course still available, but a SSL/TLS |
81 |
lusky |
1580 |
connection is required, as compression is now handled via OpenSSL |
82 |
michael |
1418 |
o) Removed 'ssl_server_protocol' configuration directive and |
83 |
|
|
added 'ssl_client_method' and 'ssl_server_method' instead. |
84 |
|
|
Both of these options can now be changed at runtime |
85 |
michael |
1382 |
o) Oper login IDs are no longer limited to NICKLEN*2 |
86 |
michael |
1401 |
o) Removed channel::burst_topicwho configuration option. Topicsetters are |
87 |
|
|
now sent by default |
88 |
michael |
1418 |
o) "STATS Y|y" now reports CIDR limits as well |
89 |
|
|
o) Added m_webirc.c to contrib/ |
90 |
michael |
1409 |
