+ngIRCd 23
+
+ - Specify session context for OpenSSL clients. This enables some OpenSSL
+ clients, including Pidgin and stunnel 5.06, to reuse a session.
+ Patch by Tom Ryder <tom@sanctum.geek.nz>, thanks! Closes #182.
+ - Keep track of who placed bans, invites, and excepts.
+ Idee and implementation by LucentW, Thanks! Closes #203.
+ - Make setgroups(3) function optional: For example, Interix is missing
+ this function, which prevented ngIRCd to build on this platform. When
+ setgroups(3) isn't available, a warning message is issued on startup.
+ - Implement numeric RPL_LISTSTART(321). lightIRC and other clients
+ expecting RPL_LISTSTART should now behave correctly.
+ Idee and implementation by LucentW, Thanks! Closes #207.
+ - Update ngircd.conf.5: "CloadUserToNick" hides user _and_ real name.
+ This closes #208.
+ - Fix case insensitive pattern matching: Up to now, only the the input
+ string became lowercased and was then compared to the pattern -- which
+ failed when the pattern itself wasn't all lowercase!
+ - Streamline the effect of "MorePrivacy" option: Update documentation
+ in ngircd.conf(5); don't hide channels for IRC Ops on LIST and don't
+ hide IP addresses/hostnames on WHOIS when "MorePrivacy" is in effect.
+ This closes #198.
+ - IRC operators now can kick anyone when "OperCanMode" is set.
+ Idee and implementation by LucentW, Thanks! Closes #202.
+ - Implement user mode "I": Hide channels on WHOIS: this mode prevents
+ ngIRCd from showing channels on WHOIS (IRC Operators can always see
+ the channel list).
+ Idee and implementation by LucentW, Thanks! Closes #197.
+ - INVITE command: Implement ERR_USERNOTONSERV(504) numeric and make sure
+ that the target user is on the same server when inviting other users
+ to local ("&") channels.
+ Idea by Cahata, thanks! Closes #183.
+ - INVITE command: Enforce 1 second penalty time, which prevents flooding
+ of the target client.
+ This closes #186. Reported by Cahata, thanks!
+ - MODE command: Always report channel creation time. Up to now when
+ receiving a MODE command, ngIRCd only reported the channel creation
+ time to clients that were members of the channel. This patch reports
+ the channel creation time to all clients, regardless if they are joined
+ to that channel or not. At least ircd-seven behaves like this.
+ This closes #188. Reported by Cahata, thanks!
+ - Update Xcode project for latest Xcode version (6.3).
+
+ngIRCd 22.1 (2015-04-06)
+
+ - Update doc/Platforms.txt and doc/FAQ.txt.
+ - Fix spelling of RPL_WHOISBOT message text.
+ - Don't send nick name as default PART reason: No other IRC daemon seems
+ to do this (today?). Closes #185.
+ Reported by Cahata in #ngircd, thanks!
+ - Fix "WHO #<chan>" showing invisible users and hiding all visible, the
+ logic was reversed! This bug has been introduced by commit c74115f2,
+ "Simplify mode checking on channels and users within a channel", ngIRCd
+ releases 21, 21.1, and 22 are affected :-( Problem reported by Cahata
+ in #ngircd, Thanks!
+ - Fix typo in src/testsuite/README
+ - Auth PING: Fix our information text for manual sending of "PONG". Up to
+ now, ngIRCd doesn't send a valid IRC command at all, oops!
+ - Auth PING: Fix internal time stamp conversion and don't send a prefix in
+ our PING command. The prefix confuses WeeChat, at least, which doesn't
+ send an appropriate PONG in the case ...
+ Debugging and patch by "wowaname" on #ngircd, thanks!
+ - Fix syntax of ERR_LISTFULL_MSG(478) numeric. Pointed out by "wowaname"
+ in #ngircd, thanks!
+ - Enhance debug messages while sending CHANINFO commands.
+ - Reset "last try" timer when enabling a passive server. This results in
+ a new connection attempt as soon as possible.
+ - Change log message for "Can't resolve address" and for IP address
+ forgeries.
+ - doc/HowToRelease.txt: Add note about the bug tracker.
+ - Update "CipherList" to not enable SSLv3 by default. Idea, initial patch,
+ and testing by Christoph Biedl <ngircd.anoy@manchmal.in-ulm.de>.
+ - Change ngIRCd test suite not to use DNS lookups: Different operating
+ systems do behave quite differently when doing DNS lookups, for example
+ "127.0.0.1" sometimes resolves to "localhost" and sometimes to
+ "localhost.localdomain" (for example OpenBSD). And other OS resolve
+ "localhost" to the real host name (for example Cygwin). So not using
+ DNS at all makes the test site much more portable.
+
+ngIRCd 22 (2014-10-11)
+
+ - Match all list patterns case-insensitive: this affects the invite-,
+ ban-, and except lists, as well as G-Lines an K-Lines.
+ Problem pointed out by "wowaname" on #ngircd, thanks!
+
+ ngIRCd 22~rc1 (2014-09-29)
+ - Sync "except lists" between servers: Up to now, ban, invite, and G-Line
+ lists have been synced between servers while linking -- but obviously
+ nobody noticed that except list have been missing ever since. Until now.
+ Thanks to "j4jackj", who reported this issue in #ngircd.
+ - Allow longer user names (up to 63 characters) for authentication.
+ - Correctly check that a server has a valid hostname and port, thanks to
+ David Binderman <dcb314@hotmail.com> who reported this bug.
+ - Fix the function which generates complete "IRC masks" from user input,
+ don't destroy the source buffer and use all provided parts (nick, user,
+ host name). This fixes GLINEs/KLINEs from not working in some situations.
+ - Increase MAX_SERVERS from 16 to 64: There are installations out there
+ that would like to configure more than 16 links per server, so increase
+ this limit. Best would be to get rid of MAX_SERVERS altogether and make
+ if fully dynamic, but start with this quick and dirty hack ...
+ - Debian: Don't adjust path names that are correct by default and correctly
+ set and use "docdir".
+ - Update config.guess and config.sub to recent versions.
+ - Test suite/platformtest.sh: Detect when tests have been skipped.
+ - doc/Bopm.txt: Update "connregex" and "kline" for current ngIRCd.
+ - Allow "DefaultUserModes" to set all possible modes, including modes only
+ settable by IRC Operators.
+ - Spoofed prefixes: Really kill connection on non-server links.
+ - Implement user mode "F": "relaxed flood protection". Clients with mode
+ "F" set are allowed to rapidly send data to the daemon. This mode is only
+ settable by IRC Operators and can cause problems in the network -- so be
+ careful and only set it on "trusted" clients!
+ User mode "F" is used by Bahamut for this purpose, for example.
+ - Handle "throttling" in a single function: ngIRCd implements "command
+ throttling" and "bps throttling" (bytes per second). The states are
+ detected in different functions, Conn_Handler() and Read_Request(), but
+ handle the actual "throttling" in a common function: this enables us to
+ guarantee consistent behavior and to disable throttling for special
+ connections in only one place
+ - Use server password when PAM is compiled in but disabled.
+ - Streamline punctuation of log messages.
+ - Return ISUPPORT(005) numerics on "VERSION". This is how ircd-seven,
+ Charybdis, Hybrid, and InspIRCd behave, for example.
+ - configure: Only link "contrib/Debian" if it exists, which isn't the case
+ on "VPATH builds", for example.
+ - Show the account name in WHOIS. This uses the same numeric as Charybdis
+ and ircu families: WHOISLOGGEDIN(330).
+ - Pattern matching: Remove "range matching" in our pattern matching code
+ using the "[...]" syntax, because [ and ] are valid characters in nick
+ names and one has to quote them currently using the "\" character, which
+ is quite unexpected for users.
+ - platformtest.sh: New option "-x", don't regenerate build system and
+ allow using separate source and build trees.
+ - Test suite: explicitly enable glibc memory checking.
+ - Make "MODE -k" handling more robust and compatible, send "fake '*' key"
+ in all replies.
+ - Update configure.ng: ngIRCd requires GNU autoconf 2.61 for generating its
+ build system, so update the build system accordingly and implement all
+ changes that autoupdate(1) suggests: Update AC_PREREQ and AC_INIT, use
+ AC_LINK_IFELSE, AC_RUN_IFELSE, and AC_COMPILE_IFELSE, and remove
+ AC_TYPE_SIGNAL (we don't use RETSIGTYPE).
+ - portabtest: Actually test the functions snprintf(), strlcpy(), strlcat(),
+ and vsnprintf() for correctness, not only existence (which was quite
+ useless, because if they weren't available, the program could not have
+ been linked at all ...).
+ - Implement new configuration option "Network": it is used to set the
+ (completely optional) "network name", to which this instance of the
+ daemon belongs. When set, this name is used in the ISUPPORT(005) numeric
+ which is sent to all clients connecting to the server after logging in.
+ - Update doc/Platforms.txt.
+ - Various code cleanups, remove unused code, streamline error handling.
+ Remove all imp.h and exp.h header files, support non-standard vsnprintf()
+ return codes, and fix some K&R C portability issues. Streamline
+ DEBUG_ARRAY, DEBUG_BUFFER, DEBUG_IO, DEBUG_ZIP definitions.
+ - Increase penalty time to 10 seconds when handling OPER commands with an
+ invalid password.
+
+ngIRCd 21.1 (2014-03-25)
+
+ - Don't ignore but use the server password when PAM is compiled in but
+ disabled. Thanks to Roy Sindre Norangshol <roy.sindre@norangshol.no>!
+ - doc/Platforms.txt: Update from master branch.
+ - Really kill connections that send "spoofed prefixes" on non-server links.
+ This fixes commit 6cbe1308 which only killed the connection when the
+ spoofed prefix itself belonged to a non-server client.
+ - CHARCONV command: Fix handling conversion errors, don't overwrite already
+ converted text!
+ - doc/Services.txt: Update information for Anope 2.x.
+ - Correctly use cloaked IRC masks on "INVITE nickname": The cloaked IRC mask
+ of a user is his visible mask, so the daemon has to use it for generating
+ the "one time" entries for the invite list of the given channel, and not
+ the "real" mask which will never match while the target client is "+x", and
+ even worse, will disclose the real mask on "MODE #channel +I" commands :-/
+ Bug reported by Cahata on #ngircd, thanks!
+ - configure: Only link "contrib/Debian" if it exists. This isn't the case on
+ "VPATH builds", for example.
+ - Use $(MKDIR_P) instead of $(mkinstalldirs) in Makefile's and test for
+ "mkdir -p" using AC_PROG_MKDIR_P in "configure".
+ - Fix configure script and "make check" for TCP Wrappers (problems spotted on
+ OpenBSD): add missing #include's and static variables, and add libwrap at
+ the end of the configure run because if libwrap becomes added earlier,
+ other tests may fail.
+ - configure: add support for the LDFLAGS_END and LIBS_END variables to add
+ linker flags and libraries at the end of the configure run (CFLAGS_END has
+ been implemented already).
+ - platformtest.sh and Makefile.am: Don't use "test -e", it isn't portable.
+ - Update Copyright notices for 2014 :-)
+ - Fix permanent {G|K}LINES (with a timeout of 0 seconds).
+ - WEBIRC: Don't set the hostname received by the WEBIRC command when DNS
+ lookups are disabled, but use the IP address instead.
+ Reported by Toni Spets <toni.spets@iki.fi>, thanks!
+ - Check for working getaddrinfo() function: At least AIX 4.3.3 and 5.1 have a
+ broken implementation of getaddrinfo() which doesn't handle "0" as numeric
+ service correctly. This patch adds a configure check for this case and
+ changes all calling functions to only use getaddrinfo() if it "works".
+ See <http://www.stacken.kth.se/lists/heimdal-discuss/2004-05/msg00059.html>
+ - Only use the unsetenv() function when it is available (AIX 4.3 doesn't
+ support it, for example).
+ - Make sure that the source code is still compatible with the "ansi2knr" tool
+ and builds using non-ANSI K&R C compilers. Tested with Apple C on A/UX.
+ - Fix building ngIRCd without support for ZLIB compression. Reported by
+ "der_baer" on #ngircd, thanks!
+
ngIRCd 21 (2013-10-30)
- ./contrib/Debian/ngircd.init: Make sure no stale PID file is left over
when (re-)starting ngIRCd.
- Change ./contrib/platformtest.sh and update ./doc/Platforms.txt to
- allow usernames up to 8 characters.
+ allow user names up to 8 characters.
- Call arc4random_stir() in forked subprocesses, when available. This
is required by FreeBSD <10 and current NetBSD at least to correctly
initialize the "arc4" random number generator on these platforms.
