ngircd will exit if the config file cannot be opened. While
thats okay if ngircd starts up for the first time, it isn't
when we are re-reading the config file after a /REHASH or SIGHUP.
all references to struct sockaddr/in_addr have been
removed from src/ngircd.
libngipaddr (in src/ipaddr/) hides all the gory details.
See src/ipaddr/ng_ipaddr.h for API description.
This does hit only operators that join a channel with at least 2 servers active in the net
the server the oper connects to sends "channel^Go" to the other servers
the other server first searches for the channel and then strips the modes from the channel name
he has to do the other way round: first strip and then check the channel name.
RPL_WHOREPLY messages generated by IRC_WHO don't include flags (*,@,+)
that should appear according to this description:
http://www.mishscript.de/reference/rawhelp3.htm#raw352
Other IRC servers do include the flags.
Modify who-test.e to expose missing flags,
modify ngircd-test.conf to accommodate who-test.e, and fix
irc-info.c to correct these problems.
Under some circumstances ngIRCd currently issues a channel MODE message
with a trailing space after the last parameter, which isn't permitted by
the grammar in RFC 2812 section 2.3.1:
http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2812#section-2.3.1
The following patch modifies mode-test.e to expose this, and modifies
irc-mode.c to correct it.
- put sending of mode and forwarding of JOIN to other clients
into seperate function.
- put sending of topic/channel names into seperate function.
- put access check into seperate function.
- translate/remove remaining german comments.
- stop if JOIN to a channel in a list (JOIN #a,#,b,#c...) fails
(This doesn't change the behaviour: skip-to-next-channel-on-error
did never work as intended)
Dana Dahlstrom reported that IRC_WHO did not follow
RFC 2812, Section 3.6.1. Specifically:
- IRC_WHO did not send "G" flag instead if "H" if client was away
- did not search username/servername/hostname etc. if argument
was not a channel.
Fix all of the above and tidy things up a bit.
Also add IRC_WHO test script contributed by Dana.
The students in my software-engineering class are writing IRC clients in
Java, and I'm running ngIRCd as a sandbox for them to play in. We
noticed ngIRCd doesn't obey the "JOIN 0" command specified in RFC 2812:
JOIN 0 ; Leave all currently joined
channels.

I believe the following patch addresses this. Cheers!
[fw@strlen.de: put it into a seperate function]
parse.c:56:9: warning: symbol 'My_Commands' was not declared. Should it be static?
parse.c:107:9: warning: symbol 'My_Numerics' was not declared. Should it be static?
Also move handling of numerics into a seperate helper function.
struct Conf_Server stored the ip address to connect to
in dotted-decimal notation; but we only need this for connect()
so long-time storage isn't necessary.
- New configuration option "MaxNickLength" to specify the allowed maximum
length of user nick names. Note: must be unique in an IRC network!
- Enhanced the IRC+ protocol to support an enhanced "server handshake" and
enable server to recognice numeric 005 (ISUPPORT) and 376 (ENDOFMOTD).
See doc/Protocol.txt for details.
