Closes #185. + Reported by Cahata in #ngircd, thanks! + - Fix "WHO #" 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 . + - 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 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 ! + - 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 , 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 + - 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.
