The available + API will be autodetected when you call "./configure --with-rendezvous". + - Made ngIRCd compile on HP/UX 10.20 with native HP pre-ANSI C compiler and + most probably other older C compilers on other systems. + - When the daemon should switch to another user ID (ServerID is defined in + the configuration file) and is not running in a chroot environment, it + changes it's working directory to the home directory of this user.

Now you can force the daemon to change + its root and working directory to something "safe". MotdPhrase is used + to define an "MOTD string" instead of a whole file, useful if the + "real" MOTD file would be outside the "jail". + - INVITE- and BAN-lists become synchronized between IRC+ servers when + establishing new connections, if the peer supports this as well. + - Reorganized autogen.sh and configure scripts. + - Fixed a wrong assert() which could cause the daemon to exit spuriously + when closing down connections. + - Better logging of decompression errors returned by zlib. + - Servers other than the destination server didn't clean up the invite + list of an "invite-only" channel properly when an INVITE'd user joined. + - Changed the reply of the MODE command to match the syntax of the + original ircd exactly: the unnecessary but missing ":" before the last + parameter has been added. + - Fixed TRACE: don't output "Serv" lines for ourself; display more info. + - Results of the resolver (hostnames and IDENT names) are discarded after + the client is successfully registered with the server. + - Better logging while establishing and shutting down connections. + - The type of service (TOS) of all sockets is set to "interactive" now. + - Added short command line option "-t" as alternative to "--configtest". + - Added optional support for "IDENT" lookups on incoming connections. You + have to enable this function with the ./configure switch "--with-ident". + The default is not to do IDENT lookups. + +ngIRCd 0.7.7 (2004-02-05) + + - The info text ("real name") of users is set to "-" if none has been + specified using the USER command (e. g. "USER user * * :"). Reason: + the original ircd doesn't like empty ones and would KILL such users. + - Fixed (optional) TCP Wrapper test which was broken and could result in + false results.
