21	<	You should run ./configure with the option '--enable-efnet' to tweak
24	<	some options to be EFNet based. You must also use the example.efnet.conf
25	<	instead of example.conf.

56		currently only available on 2.5.44 Linux kernel versions or
57		later.
58
63	–	* --enable-rtsigio - Enable the superior Linux RealTime Signal I/O
64	–	system. This is currently only available on 2.4 Linux kernel
65	–	versions or later.

59		* --enable-poll - Use POSIX poll(2).
60
61		* --enable-select - Use POSIX select(2).
#	Line 73 | Line 65
65		enable select(2) instead (bad idea), you must use --enable-select.
66
67		* --enable-openssl - Enable the openssl dependent crypto functions.
68	<	This will allow CHALLENGE to work and encrypted links. On systems
69	<	where the configure script can automatically detect OpenSSL, this
70	<	option is not necessary. If configure cannot find OpenSSL, you
71	<	must specify a path with this option
68	>	Required for the SSL Challenge controlled OPER feature, compressed
69	>	and/or SSL/TLS server links, as well as SSL/TLS client connections.

80		should not be used on any production servers for maximum speed
81		so as to prevent cores from things that shouldn't normally happen.
82
83	+	* --enable-debugging - Prepares Makefiles to compile the ircd sources
84	+	with proper settings that are required for debugging purposes.
85	+	This switch basically sets CFLAGS to "-g -O0".
86	+
87		* --enable-halfops - Enable halfops (%, mode +h) usage. Halfops
88		are similar to plain ops, but can't kick/deop plain ops. Halfops
89		may or may not kick/deop other halfops depending on if (+p) is
90		set. Halfops may not set (+/-p).
91
94	–	* --enable-small-net - Tunes the server for smaller networks by
95	–	reducing the startup memory footprint. This should really only be
96	–	used for *small* networks, as this tends to be a performance hit
97	–	on larger networks.
98	–
99	–	* --with-nicklen,
100	–	--with-topiclen - Respectively, sets the maximum NICK length and
101	–	maximum TOPIC length. Note that this must be consistent across your
102	–	entire network. Defaults are 9 and 120, respectively.

93		3.  Run 'make'; this should build the ircd.
94
95		4.  Run 'make install'; this will install the server, modules, and tools
96		in the path with the prefix specified when configure was ran.
97
111	–	5.  If you wish to install the contrib modules, run 'make install' in the
112	–	contrib/ folder to compile and install the modules and help pages.
113	–
114	–	6.  If you are upgrading from Hybrid 5 or Hybrid 6, the config files
115	–	have changed drastically.
116	–
117	–	By default, the kline file is named kline.conf, the dline file is
118	–	named dline.conf, and the xline file is called xline.conf.
119	–
120	–	The nick resv file is named nresv.conf, channel resv file is named
121	–	cresv.conf.
122	–
123	–	The oper motd file is named opers.motd.
