General -~~~~~~~~~~ -Q: Is it possible to link the ngIRCd with non-ngIRCd servers? -A: Yes. ngIRCd is compatible to the original ircd used by IRCNet. Actually - this is being tested with version 2.10.3p3. - -Q: Is there a homepage with further information and downloads? -A: Yes. Please visit . - -Q: Why should I use ngIRCd instead of the original one? -A: ngIRCd offers several benefits: no problems with dynamic IPs, easy to - configure, open source (GPL), under active development. - - - -II. Compilation -~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Q: I did a "CVS checkout" but can't execute ./configure because the script - is missing in the generated directory!? -A: When using development versions via CVS, the configure script as well as - the Makefile.in templates must be generated using GNU automake and GNU - autoconf. To simplify this task run the ./autogen.sh script which will - execute the required tools for you; then continue with executing the - ./configure script as usual. - -Q: The ./autogen.sh script complains "aclocal: command not found". -A: GNU automake is missing on your system but required for building CVS - versions of ngIRCd. Install GNU automake 1.6 or later and try again. - -Q: The ./autogen.sh script stops with "autoheader: command not found". -A: GNU autoconf is missing on your system but required for building CVS - versions of ngIRCd. Install GNU autoconf 2.52 or later and try again. - -Q: The ./autogen.sh script fails and the message "automake: configure.in: - AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE must be used" is displayed. -A: Most probably you are using version 1.5 of GNU automake which seems to be - incompatible to the build system of ngIRCd. Solution: upgrade to at least - version 1.6 of GNU automake. - (If you are using Debian 3.0 "Woody" you can try to downgrade to version - 1.4 of GNU automake shipped with this distribution; it should work, too.) - - -III. Bugs!? -~~~~~~~~~~~ -Q: Is there a list of known bugs and desired feature enhancements? -A: Yes. Have a look at the bug tracking system (Bugzilla) for ngIRCd located - at . There you can file bug reports - and feature requests as well as search the bug database. - -Q: What should I do if I found a bug? -A: Please file a bug report at ! - The author of the particular component will be notified automagically :-) - - --- -$Id: FAQ.txt,v 1.6 2003/04/29 13:36:55 goetz Exp $
