"--with-ident=/opt/ident". + - Removed typedefs for the native C datatypes. + Use stdbool.h / inttypes.h if available. + - New configuration option "OperServerMode" to enable a workaround needed + when running an network with ircd2 servers and "OperCanUseMode" enabled + to prevent the ircd2 daemon to drop mode changes of IRC operators. + Patch by Florian Westphal, . + - Implemented support for "secret channels" (channel mode "s"). + - New configuration option "Mask" for [Operator] sections to limit OPER + commands to users with a specific IRC mask. Patch from Florian Westphal. + - Write "error file" (/tmp/ngircd-XXX.err) only if compiled with debug + code ("--enable-debug") and running as daemon process. + - Don't create version information string each time a client connects + but instead on server startup. By Florian Westphal. + - New configuration variable "PidFile", section "[Global]": if defined, + the server writes its process ID (PID) to this file. Default: off. + Idea of Florian Westphal, . + - Code cleanups from Florian Westphal, . + - Raised the maximum length of passwords to 20 characters. + - Fixed a memory leak when resizing the connection pool and realloc() + failed. Now we don't fall back to malloc(), which should be sane anyway. + Patch from Florian Westphal, . + - Added support for the Howl (http://www.porchdogsoft.com/products/howl/) + Rendezvous API, in addition to the API of Apple (Mac OS X). 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. This + should enable the system to write proper core files when not running with + root privileges ... + +ngIRCd 0.8.3 (2005-02-03) + + - Fixed a bug that could case a root exploit when the daemon is compiled + to do IDENT lookups and is logging to syslog.

Bug found + by Florian Westphal, . + - Fixed a possible buffer underrun when reading the MOTD file. Thanks + to Florian Westphal, . + - Fixed detection of IRC lines which are too long to send. Detected by + Florian Westphal, . + - Fixed return values of our own implementation of strlcpy(). The code has + been taken from rsync and they fixed it, but we didn't until today :-/ + It has only been used when the system didn't implement strlcpy by itself, + not on "modern" systems.

And do the test if the binary is executable after + reading this file. + - Enhanced the "test suite": please have a look at src/testsuite/README! + +ngIRCd 0.8.0 (2004-06-26) + + - Fixed wrong buffer size calculation for results of the resolver. + + ngircd 0.8.0-pre2 (2004-05-16) + - Enhanced logging to console when running in "no-detached mode": added + PID and log messages of resolver sub-processes. + - Fixed host name lookups when using IDENT user lookups. + - "make clean" and "make maintainer-clean" remove more files now. + + ngIRCd 0.8.0-pre1 (2004-05-07) + - Two new configuration options: "ChrootDir" and "MotdPhrase", thanks to + Benjamin Pineau . 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.
