[Coder-Com] ircu2.10.xx

2001-06-10 Thread chris

Hi all,
  Just a beginner C/C++ programmer here, but I thought you might like to know, you're 
additions for making Opers Non-Deopable and Non-Kickable, as well as allowing them to 
set modes on a channel whether or not they have ops, and including the option for 
"walking through" modes, wasn't working. I found the resolution to all of these issues.

Resolving the "walking through" modes issue:
Remove the reference to IsOperOnLocalChannel(x, chan) and change it to 
IsAnOper(x).

Resolving the making Opers Non-Deopable/Kickable:
Same as first resolution.

Resolving the allowing them to set modes whether or not they have ops:
*Remove* the Global Variable completely, you *don't* need it, and change the 
if statements to just check whether or not they are an Oper, as above in the first 2 
resolutions.

Sincerely,
Chris Gatewood






[Coder-Com] ircu2.10.xx Features

2001-06-11 Thread chris

Hi all,
I know I sent y'all an email earlier pertaining to the new Oper features in 
ircu2.10.xx, I wanted to make it clear that I know now I misunderstood these features, 
due to lack of doc's etc, I have a question pertaining to it.. I've been told on a 1 
server network, it would work fine, what if you were to code it into every server 
compiled and connected to the network, would it be feasable that the servers would not 
reject eachother's mode set's, etc? I'm not sure, I'm thinking it would require a bit 
more coding that I've done. *LOL* Just thought I'd get some input.
I was also curious to know if anyone would be willing to give me some tips on 
TCP/IP programming, more or less, pertaining to coding my own Cservice bot (more like 
an Eggdrop rather than X). I have the old Uworld P9 code, I've been readin through it 
all, and from the looks of it, including some test Telnet sessions to my personal 
server, I have a good rough idea of how to code one now, but I'm still running into 
things, I have yet to get my test program past the registration process, I can't seem 
to get it to do a PONG back w/ the # that was given by the server, it's not copying 
into the array correctly or something, anyway, any help you would be willing to 
provide would be *much* appreciated.

Thanks,
Chris Gatewood

afaik the US relaxed a lot of its export laws to most (western)
countries.  Besides if the FBI wanted to spy on Undernet easily (or Scotland

them capture un-encrypted traffic - and I suspect there's not a jot you

servers it was being done...or even talk to a solictor about appealing the

So much for the free western world.

OK, I see what you're talking about now, but how would you go
about generating a fingerprint?  Baring in mind that we have no access to
their local system to use details such as CPU ID...and we likely never
will have either (I'm not sure I'd want that information from the users).

The only way I can see of doing it would involve a Client <->

(you could just generate a random fingerprint) that it would be

Well we have that with the channel service, with the +r mode we
could possibly also add the ability to ban by X username.  Although even
that can be gotten around by creating more than one X account, so the
truely persistant will still be able to get around the ban.

The weak point is essentialy stopping people registering more than
one account, or if they do, linking those multiple accounts so that
X/whatever knows they're the same person and the applies the ban to both;
but you can only really link them if they use the same e-mail adress for
both...do CSC allow the freebie e-mail addresses for registration nowdays
or are they still blacklisted?

The MAC address of the sending host is only available on the same
LAN (or VLAN) as the sending host.  Plus dialup nodes don't have MAC
addresses - not real ones anyway, the adapter might have a MAC address but
it's contrived; and probably always the same.  And if you're using a real

That's OS finger printing, which will only tell you which OS

doesn't identify a user.  What's worse is it's invansive and wouldn't make

The number of connections per IP is an Admin decision which the
coders have no say in.  If the Admins initiated a change then it would be
different, but I think it's unlikely to happen since most of them like
being able to restrict to 1 connection per host.  As with most things
Admins do it's like it or lump it (or try and convince them to give you a

Opers can't remove other opers...that's the admins job (unless of

And opers can see what server you're on...even if the other person
is an oper, head in sand only applies to users, and remote local opers -
their local server will still display the server someone is on if they
/whois .  But if they directly query the remote server after that to
see if the user is a local oper, they won't see the server name in the
reply, because the remote server can't see their oper status.

.12 uses a C-style config file, with a bison parser - it was taken
from Hybrid ircd.  Essential, a .11 O line might look like this:

O:*@*.shad0w.org.uk::_Shad0w_::10

A .12 one looks like this:

operator {
 local = no;
 host = "*@*.shad0w.org.uk";
 password = "";
 name = "_Shad0w_";
 class = "local";
};

As you can see, the classes are also named rather than
numbered...makes visual identifcation a lot easier.  There's also a huge
set of privileges in .12 to replace the flat local or global concept.

If you want to see the new conf files in action, just check out
the HEAD of the CVS, which will give you the .12 development code,
including the new conf file parser.  Although be warned the term Alpha
might be a little generous ;)

There are only a few opers who deal with routing the

get recognised as the authorities on the matter...there's also a lot of
politics to do with routing, like US opers don't like to touch the routing

opers about willing/able to re-route the network when there's lag, it

I would suspect you need to look at cygwin documentation to do
with porting...the modules will need to be built as DLLs, the dlopen()
code may not work on cygwin.

Other than that, you're on your own.  ircu is only coded to work
on a few platforms.  And Windows isn't one of them.

It says it can't find the shared library libpq++.so.4, at a guess
I'd say it's a Postgres SQL library.  Make sure you have it and if you do,
make sure it's in the runtime library search path...if it's a Linux box
look at /etc/ld.so.conf.

I think he wants to know if you can log in ircu2.10.12 (I'm assuming he's

I can see that one being unpopular, not to mention possibly exploitable for

drones to the server to fill it up and make it start dumping bots.  Possibly 
hard to achieve, but it would be possible.  They wouldn't even have to taget

No one is talking about removing the ability to login via privmsg, just 
supplementing it with the ability to login on connect, so that mode +x can be 
set on your client before it's even announced to the network.  That way your

Last time I checked, registrations were manualy checked by services, they can 
also ban entire IP ranges from registering accounts.  Multiple regitrations 
from the same e-mail sub-domain would likely be queried.

MS Chat was never very IRC friendly.  It was really designed to be used with

personaly thought about using it for Server <> Server connections - but there 
are still crypto issues in some countries we have servers in.

It got broken in .03 and fixed in .04 as soon as someone noticed, ie about 30

Too much overhead for the IRC servers and not really needed - if people don't 
like the colours most clients will allow them to be stripped off.  And 
reducing the number of bans for using colours isn't really someting we're 
concerned with - people should just learn to respect the rules of channels 
they go in.

Increadibly limited use not to mention esoteric.  I can't see it being 
accepted on Undernet.  Adding a new channel mode which will get used on one 
channel on the whole network doesn't make any real sense.  In general if we 
want to make a channel oper only, we just set it +i like anyone else would 
when they want to control who gets in.

There's been discussion about adding something like an /x command to the IRCu 
code.  But it's something which has to be thought about carefuly, since it 
would have to take into account the possiblilty of future expansion of the 
CSC services, ie atm we only have a single service online, in future we may 
have more again.

I don't see why an oper would need to be able to add their own commands.  If 
other networks want to use ircu as a base and have their own commands, they 
can maintain their own tree based on ircu...which some networks already do.

If you WHOIS yourself and you're +x you'll be shown your U@H the same way as 
an oper would see it, namely:

   :Actual user@host, Actual IP

The numeric is 338.

A lot of these problems were caused by the fact that RFC1459 was actually 
written after the IRC protocol was in use...it doesn't exactly match up with 
what the daemon was doing at a lot points.  Some stuff is missing entirely 
iirc.

Skrewed up standards are not the sole preserve of MS ;)

WHOIS, unless the client using the command is in the channel anyway.  Secret

I can't see a constructive difference between showing the channel names as 
Prv and hiding them completly.  The only way it would make sense is the way I 
stated, otherwise +p and +s become analegous and +p is just there for 
historical reasons.
