# Line 21 | Line 18 | Necessary Requirements:
18  
19   - A supported platform (look below)
20  
21 < - A working dynamic load library, unless
25 <  compiling statically, without module
26 <  support.
21 > - A working dynamic load library
22  
23   Feature Specific Requirements:
24  
25 < - For the SSL Challenge controlled OPER feature and encrypted server links,
26 <  a working OpenSSL library
27 <
33 < - For compressed server links,
34 <  a working zlib library and includes (zlib.h)
25 > - For the SSL Challenge controlled OPER feature, compressed and/or
26 >  SSL/TLS server links, as well as SSL/TLS client connections,
27 >  a working OpenSSL library is required
28  
29   - For encrypted oper and (optional) server passwords, a working DES and/or
30    MD5 library
31  
32 + - For regular expression based kline{} and gecos{} blocks, the
33 +  PCRE - Perl Compatible Regular Expressions library is required
34 +
35   *******************************************************************************
36  
37   - See the INSTALL document for info on configuring and compiling
# Line 43 | Line 39 | Feature Specific Requirements:
39  
40   - Please read doc/index.txt to get an overview of the current documentation.
41  
46 - A good place for general help, discussions, and suggestions for ircd-hybrid
47  can be found at http://www.forum.ircd-hybrid.org
48
42   - There is also a mailing list for general discussion of Hybrid.  To subscribe
43    to the Hybrid List, use this link:
44    https://lists.ircd-hybrid.org/mailman/listinfo/hybrid
# Line 54 | Line 47 | Feature Specific Requirements:
47  
48   - Known bugs are listed in the BUGS file
49  
57 - If you run in to a problem you think may be specific to your platform,
58  check README.PLATFORMS for some hints.
59
50   - SOLARIS USERS: this code appears to tickle a bug in older gcc and
51    egcs ONLY on 64-bit Solaris7.  gcc-2.95 and SunPro C on 64bit should
52    work fine, and any gcc or SunPro compiled on 32bit.
53  
64 - DARWIN AND MACOS X USERS: You must be using at least the December 2001
65  Development Tools from Apple to build ircd-hybrid with shared modules.
66  Before then you MUST disable shared modules, as we do not have the proper
67  flags for cc(1) prior to that point to produce shared modules.
68
54   - TESTED PLATFORMS:  The code has been tested on the following platforms, and
55    is known to run properly.
56 <  FreeBSD 3.x/4.x/5.x (gcc only, TenDRA will work but only with the latest
56 >  (FIXME: this list is out of date)
57 >  FreeBSD 3.x/4.x/5.x/7.x/8.0 (gcc only, TenDRA will work but only with the latest
58    cvs version from ten15.org)
59 <  Linux glibc 2.2/2.3
59 >  Linux glibc 2.2/2.3/2.10.1/2.12.1
60    Solaris 2.6/7/8
75  Cygwin 1.3.22 (no shared modules yet)
61    OpenBSD 2.8-3.2
62    HP-UX 11.00-11.22
63    IRIX64 6.5.19 (gcc only; MIPSpro is unconfirmed)
# Line 81 | Line 66 | Feature Specific Requirements:
66  
67    It probably does not compile on AIX or libc5 Linux.
68  
84 - Old Hybrid 5/6 configuration files are no longer supported.  All conf
85  files will have to be converted to the Hybrid 7 format.
86
69   - If you are wondering why config.h no longer exists, it's because most
70    things that were once in config.h are now specified in the 'general'
71 <  block of ircd.conf.  Look at example.conf for more information about
72 <  these options. Many, notably syslog support and EFnet tweaks, are now
91 <  configure options (see ./configure --help for details.)
71 >  block of ircd.conf. Look at example.conf for more information about
72 >  these options.
73  
74   - /etc/resolv.conf must exist for the resolver to work.
75  
76 < - Please read RELNOTES and doc/whats-new.txt for information about what is in
76 > - Please read NEWS for information about what is in
77    this release.
78  
79   - Other files recommended for reading: BUGS, INSTALL
