7 ngIRCd is free software and published under the
8 terms of the GNU General Public License.
13 At the moment, ngIRCd doesn't implement a "special IRC services interface".
14 But services acting as a "regular server" are supported, either using the IRC
15 protocol defined in RFC 1459 or RFC 2812.
17 Services have been tested using "IRC Services" version 5.x of Andrew Church,
18 homepage: <http://www.ircservices.za.net/>. This document describes setting up
19 ngIRCd and these services.
25 The "pseudo server" handling the IRC services is configured as a regular
26 remote server in the ngircd.conf(5). In addition the variable "ServiceMask"
27 should be set, enabling this ngIRCd to recognize the "pseudo users" as IRC
28 services insted of regular IRC users.
33 Name = services.irc.net
39 Setting up IRC Services 5.1.x
40 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
42 IRC Services 5.1.x can be used with ngIRCd using the "rfc1459" protocol
43 module. At least the following settings have to be tweaked, in addition to all
44 the settings marked as required by IRC Services:
48 Variable Example value
