File Release Notes and Changelog
Release Name: Hybserv 1.4.6
Notes: Release Notes for HybServ 1.4.6 ======= ===== === ======= ===== Two optional directives were added to settings.conf so you can keep track of your jupes and glines more efficiently. "GlineFile" and "JupeFile" specify two separate files in which glines and jupes will be stored in. A new feature was also added to hybserv.conf - the .include directive. This allows you to organize your configuration lines more efficiently by including other files which may contain configuration lines. The example hybserv.conf explains more fully.

added NickServ's memo set options to NickServ "info" output - NickServ's set "nomemos", "nonotify", and "nosignon" have been changed to "memos", "notify", and "signon", because that way is easier to understand - unfortunately this is not backwards compatible, meaning whatever memo settings you had in prior versions will be reversed by this version, so you'll have to reset them :-) Sorry. - bug fix in ignore host matching - all NickServ and ChanServ "set" commands are now logged - NickServ's "access list" now supports hostmask matching (/msg NickServ help access list) - command abbreviation now works for sub-commands such as /msg NickServ set pass <password> instead of: /msg NickServ set password <password> -

If it cannot bind the port after so many tries (MAX_BINDS), it gives up - added option: MAX to OperServ's "htm" command so you can set the maximum htm rate on the fly - OperServ no longer joins C: lined channels unless there are users in them - no point guarding an empty channel, and this also fixes the bug where OperServ would join, part, and join again on startup - added SET SUCCESSOR to ChanServ (/msg ChanServ help set successor) - memory leak found and fixed in chanserv.c - added script "install.fast" to quickly compile and install HybServ - added #define LAST_SEEN_INFO to config.h to have NickServ keep track of users' last seen addresses and quit messages to display in an INFO - added options: EMAIL, URL and HIDE to NickServ's "set" command (/msg NickServ help set {EMAIL|URL|HIDE}) - added options: ENTRYMSG, EMAIL, URL, and FORGET to ChanServ's "set" command (/msg ChanServ help set {ENTRYMSG|EMAIL|URL|FORGET}) (FORGET option suggested by holobyte <holobyte@holobyte.org>) - RECORD_SPLIT_TS now works after a .jump - make install-help now chown's the help directory to the user who ran configure (found by holobyte <holobyte@holobyte.org>) - added #define ALLOW_ACCESS_IF_OPPED to make optional the feature where ChanServ doesn't deop anyone as long as a SuperOp is opped on the channel (requested by holobyte <holobyte@holobyte.org>) - bug fix where ChanServ would rejoin every channel regardless of it being empty when it was killed - also, no longer joins forgotten channels after being killed 1.1.9 12/30/1998 - when ChanServ now joins a channel, it no longer deops anyone as long as there is a SuperOp or higher opped on the channel - the SuperOp does NOT need to be identified with NickServ (requested by Cloud90 <Cloud90@earthlink.net>) - new feature: #define HIGHTRAFFIC_MODE to handle high traffic loads more efficiently - read config.h for more information - command "htm" added to OperServ accordingly - Now checks to make sure there is a '#' in the channel name in a C: line (found by NEPH|L|M <adel@cybercable.fr>) - uses of the ChanServ "clear" command are now logged - bug fix in ChanServ's "akick" command (found by Cloud90 <Cloud90@earthlink.net>) - now introduces all juped servers/nicks on connection to the hub, instead of waiting for the nick/server to show up, and then introducing the jupe (suggested by ^joey- <apryan@dimensional.org>) - new ChanServ command: forget (admins only) (/msg ChanServ help forget) (requested by holobyte <holobyte@holobyte.org>) - added #define SERVER_NOTICES to config.h, to have the server name issue NOTICES, instead of OperServ/StatServ (requested by ^joey- <apryan@dimensional.org>) - added #define RECORD_SPLIT_TS to config.h, so when services splits, users won't have to re-identify with NickServ or OperServ (suggested by holobyte <holobyte@holobyte.org>) - memory leak fixed in RemUserInfo() (introduced in 1.1.7) - added new memory handling routines (alloc.c) a) Now detects if we run out of memory on a malloc(), realloc() call etc. b) Block Allocation added (#define BLOCK_ALLOCATION) - read the section in config.h for more information - added HelpServ (#define HELPSERVICES) (/msg HelpServ help) %H now expands to HELPSERV_NICK in motd files as well - new ChanServ command: status (admins only) (/msg ChanServ help status) - recoded hashing algorithms - hashes use much less memory now for smaller nets 1.1.8p3 12/07/1998 - bug fix where StatServ wasn't resetting daily domain resolving/nonresolving counts - bug fix in ChanServ's "access list" command introduced in 1.1.7p1 (found by geniusj <geniusj@home.com>) - bug fix in StatServ that was causing a seg fault when services was /squit'd - redid paths in config.h a bit - you no longer have to specify the entire path name for hybserv.conf/hybserv.motd etc. - just give the name of the directory with all the files in HPATH;

I've thought long and hard about this, and I know many people like the command, so if you have any questions/comments/suggestions, email wnder@underworld.net - now idents incoming telnet connections so the clients username is no longer *@hostname (if an ident request fails, the client will be known as "unknown@host"); IDENT_TIMEOUT added to config.h accordingly - now saves channel/nickname databases before shutting down after a SIGTERM - no longer logs connections to dcc chat clients - no longer displays blank lines sent by telnet clients to partyline - added #define TELNET_TIMEOUT to config.h so telnet clients who haven't entered their password within a certain number of seconds will be disconnected 1.1.6p2 10/16/1998 - added #define CONNECTFREQ to config.h to specify the delay between reconnect attempts (if the hubs are down etc) - removed modes field from C: lines in hybserv.conf (it did nothing) - .stats o now displays nicknames - several bug fixes in telnet interface - .rehash now reloads P: lines - .stats m now accounts for dcc/telnet memory usage and P: line memory usage - optimized memory usage a bit more in the user structures - bug fix where HybServ wouldn't detect if the hub closed the connection properly (introduced in 1.1.6p1) - bug fix in OperServ's "restart" command - bug fix where if the socket descriptor used for the hub server happened to be 0, hybserv wouldn't connect properly 1.1.6p1 10/10/1998 - added a telnet DCC CHAT interface, so you can telnet to a port on the box hybserv is running on to give commands to hybserv - added P: lines to hybserv.conf to specify which ports to listen on for users (tcm ports are now specified this way also, instead of in config.h) - read the example hybserv.conf for more information. This code is very experimental, and probably contains all sorts of bugs :-), so I'd appreciate anyone who can use the telnet feature frequently to test it out. Any bug reports can be sent to wnder@pheared.underworld.net - deop flood protection added - if OperServ or ChanServ is deoped from a channel 5 times in <= 20 seconds, everyone on the channel is deoped, so the *Serv can regain ops - bug fix where commands that were previously dcc only, were not being displayed correctly to opers/admins on the partyline, if given through /msg - bug fix where HybServ would crash when someone /oper'd if the N: line for services had a hostmask stripping field (found by DevilM <devilm@r337.com>) -

kick flood protection added - if OperServ or ChanServ is kicked from a channel 5 times in <= 20 seconds, everyone on the channel is deoped, so the *Serv can regain ops - bug fix involving MLOCKs for +l/+k modes - added command "clear" to ChanServ (/msg ChanServ help clear) - Makefile modified so 'make install' no longer installs the help files - use 'make install-help' now - added "stats ?" to OperServ (/msg OperServ help stats) -

bug fix where dcc messages meant for "o" flag users were being sent to other tcm bots if the tcm's hostmask matched an "o" user - make install now chown's the install directory to the user who ran configure - so hybserv doesn't automatically run as root - you can change the user by editing Makefile 1.1.4p3 08/12/1998 - there is no longer a limit as to how many O: or S: lines you can have in hybserv.conf -

several bug fixes in .fuckover: a) users with an exception (e) flag can no longer be fuckover'd b) if a user was killed while they were being flooded, the flood process was not removed from the fprocs table c) psuedo nicks like SERVICENICK and any juped nicknames can no no longer be fuckover'd -
