conf: move 'run-time-feature-disable' options to new FEATURE section
2011-01-09 19:42:42 +01:00

config: deprecate NoXX-Options
...
ngircd unfortunately uses several options using double-negation, e.g.
NoIdent = No, NoPam = No, etc.
This renames all options by dropping the "No" prefix, e.g.
"NoIdent = no" becomes "Ident = yes".
The old options will continue to work, but will cause a warning
message.
Also update man pages and default config.
To prevent silly
'Ident = yes' from appearing in --configtest output in the
'ident support not compiled in and Ident Option not used' case,
make default value depend on feature availability.
If feature is available, enable by default, otherwise disable.
We might consider moving these options to a new
[Feature]
section, or something like that, because none of these options are
essential.
Another possible improvement:
'Ident = yes' option in ngircd.conf causes a warning if ngircd was
built without ident support.
This does not happen with e.g. zeroconf....

Default is "local5" for historical reasons.

ngircd: change MOTD file handling
...
previously, the given MotdFile file was read whenever a client
requested it.
Change handling to read the MotdFile contents into memory once
during config file parsing.
Two side effects:
- changes to the MOTD file do not have any effect until ngircds
configuration is reloaded
- MOTD file does no longer have to reside in the chroot directory
(the MOTD contents will then not be re-read on reload in that case)

New configuration option "NoPAM" to disable PAM
...
When the "NoPAM" configuration option is set and ngIRCd is compiled
with support for PAM, ngIRCd will not call any PAM functions: all
connection attemps without password will succeed instead and all
connection attemps with password will fail.
If ngIRCd is compiled without PAM support, this option is a dummy
option and nothing changes: the global server password will still be
in effect.

Implement WEBIRC command
...
The WEBIRC command is used by some Web-to-IRC gateways to set the correct
user name and host name of users instead of their own.
Syntax: WEBIRC <password> <username> <hostname> <ip-address>
The <password> must be set using the new configuration variable "WebircPassword" in the [Global] section of ngircd.conf.
Please note that the <ip-address> is currently not used by ngIRCd (we don't store it in the CLIENT structure, only the resolved hostname).

This patch introduces the new configuration variable "KeyFile" for
[Channel] sections in ngircd.conf. Here a file can be configured for each
pre-defined channel which contains individual channel keys for different
users. This file is line-based and must have the following syntax:
<user>:<nick>:<key>
<user> and <nick> can contain the wildcard character "*".
Please not that these channel keys are only in effect, when the channel
has a regular key set using channel mode "k"!

Connection counter: count outgoing connections as well.
...
This patch lets ngIRCd count outgoing connections as well as incoming
connections (up to now only outgoing connections have been counted). This
change is required because the Conn_Close() function doesn't know whether
it closes an outgoing connection or not and therefore would decrement the
counter below zero when an outgoing connection existed -- which would
trigger an assert() call ...
Please note that this patch changes the (so far undocumented but now fixed)
behaviour of the "MaxConnections" configuration option to account the sum
of the in- and outbound connections!
