From: xor Date: Sun, 19 Jun 2011 04:08:33 +0000 (+0200) Subject: New configuration opion "MorePrivacy" to "censor" some user information X-Git-Tag: rel-18-rc1~5^2 X-Git-Url: https://arthur.barton.de/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=ngircd-alex.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=b80e115f3947eae39aba39d1647f0a81f3d95fa3 New configuration opion "MorePrivacy" to "censor" some user information this patch contains: * Fix for Conf_CloakUserToNick to make it conceal user details * Adds MorePrivacy-feature MorePrivacy censors some user information from being reported by the server. Signon time and idle time is censored. Part and quit messages are made to look the same. WHOWAS requests are silently dropped. All of this is useful if one wish to conceal users that access the ngircd servers from TOR or I2P. --- diff --git a/doc/sample-ngircd.conf.tmpl b/doc/sample-ngircd.conf.tmpl index b4a498d4..f5d7c8a6 100644 --- a/doc/sample-ngircd.conf.tmpl +++ b/doc/sample-ngircd.conf.tmpl @@ -141,6 +141,10 @@ # Do IDENT lookups if ngIRCd has been compiled with support for it. ;Ident = yes + # Enhance user privacy slightly (useful for IRC server on TOR or I2P) + # by censoring some information like idle time, logon time, etc. + ;MorePrivacy = no + # Normally ngIRCd doesn't send any messages to a client until it is # registered.
