Ziggy

well, iS is more customizable than ircd-2.10+ and subsequent clones. Haven't tried to compare it to UnrealIRCD...

Which IRCX server would that be? IRCXpro? ignitionServer? Exchange? MooIRCD?

She means: "How do I add Auditorium (+x) to my (illegal) copy of PaperServer?" Answer: http://216.239.39.104/search?q=cache:83G0h.../+antimsn&hl=en http://216.239.39.104/search?q=cache:kC45S.../+antimsn&hl=en I don't know if either link works, since Airwalk's site and my site are currently unavaliable, and I'm at school, and the firewall blocks the Google cache >_<. So, I'll explain here, shortly: Using the MSN Chat Control to connect to your server violates the MSN TOU. The MSN Chat Control may only connect to Microsoft services. You are not Microsoft, or you wouldn't be using PaperServer. If you are in a country that acknowledges the DMCA, you cannot have a server that emulates the MSN authentication, because that's against the clause in the DMCA that prevents you from breaking authentication methods. This topic should be closed+moved to the MSN forum. Closing is up to you guys, but the IRCX forum definitely not the right forum for a MSN question (I can't type IRC, and my trick of putting a blank <b></b> using BBCode doesn't work on IPB).

http://www.ignition-project.com/antimsn/ http://www.airwalklogik.com/projects/antimsn/ If you want to know more reasons about why using the MSN Chat Control is illegal, and how The Ignition Project and Airwalklogik are trying to prevent it from happening. Before anyone asks, yes, we are exploiting a small hole in ignitionServer 0.1.0/0.1.1 (the MSN supporting versions) and all deriviatives (WavServ). If I wasn't exploiting the hole, I'd leave the file 404, and it would crash on startup.

Mr_S, he didn't really mean anything bad

Mr_S, you're right mostly. The server doesn't autostart unless you configure ignitionServer Monitor to do so. And it won't start with Windows unless you configure it to do so. Of course, there's UI for that. Also, ignitionServer can't magically create DNS entries, so whatever you enter in the config file won't work unless you make the appropriate change to your HOSTS file (comes with Windows). However, it looks like he's wanting to install it on his Linux box. Your English appears to be very, very, very poor, so I doubt I can help you, but ignitionServer is currently *only* a native Win32 application (when I rewrite it in C, it'll work on all platforms that support the GNU C Compiler), so you *can* run it under Wine. Well, you should be able to. Maybe not. Either way, you've downloaded the source and not the binaries -- you can't compile Visual Basic on a Linux box unless you're good at setting up Wine . Basically, follow the Wine tutorials and set up Wine, and then install ignitionServer in your ~/fake_windows/Program\ Files/ directory. Reid, a competent UNIX/Linux admin, couldn't get it to work at all for him, but YMMV (your mileage may vary). However, if you are looking for a Linux IRCX daemon, take a sniff at mooircd. I don't know if they're still developing it or not, but it's worth a try.

1) Huh? 2) Did you read README.TXT? If not, read it! 3) The question would be asked better on my forum, and not on TechGear's forum. If you're wanting to know how to set it up, see http://www.ignition-project.com/articles/s...ignitionserver/.

try access $comchan($nick,1) delete deny %kickedhost $+ *!*@* or, store the person's hostname somehow and try access $comchan($nick,1) delete deny *!*@* $+ %kickedhostname most scripts ban based on hostname, and therefore deleting the deny based on nickname won't work. the logic is this (at least, this is how the logic works on ignitionServer): Assume that the nick of the kicked host was Ziggy. This means that the full mask would be Ziggy!*@*. When this host was banned, the host that kickbanned the user banned their hostname. Let's assume Ziggy's hostname was a virtual host of ziggy.creator.of.ignitionserver. The access entry is set for *!*@ziggy.creator.of.ignitionserver. When ignitionServer scans the list of access entries, it cannot match Ziggy!*@* with *!*@ziggy.creator.of.ignitionserver, because Ziggy!*@* can match any hostname. It would be a bug if Ziggy!*@* matched that hostname, because Ziggy!*@* is looking for any mask with Ziggy as the nickname, not any mask with any nickname (which is what would happen if it matched the hostname). Vincula also uses similar logic, which is actually the correct logic. Hopefully that explains it.

Not legally.

IRCX is an extension to the protocol defined by RFC 1459 (the Internet Relay Chat protocol), not a server that also has a remote (you also say the converse is true -- a server without a remote is not IRCX -- this is in fact not true, because Exchange, ignitionServer, and Tes-X are all IRCX, but don't have a remote). IRCXpro != RFC 1459 Extensions

I answered this in the ignitionServer Readme. Scroll down to the part that says "What's the difference between IRCD and IRCX?".

well.. only +q them if they're in the admin list.

IRCX has ChanServ... IRCX = RFC 1459 (IRC) + extensions. So technically, anything IRC can have, IRCX can have. Just Exchange and ignitionServer don't have services (ignitionServices, coming soon, works with iS). IRCXpro is generally crap, and it does support what you want to do, but bad idea to use it. Here's what you do. When someone joins, you /whois $nick them. On raw 307, take $1 (their nickname), and +q it in whatever room.

Has anyone looked in dmoz.org? http://www.dmoz.org/, search for IRC. Find the "Servers" section. Then go and party there. I've never seen a closed source IRCD, ever, so chances are any IRCD you find will be free (open source and free-as-in-beer go hand in hand, usually). In fact, the only two IRC* servers that I've seen that aren't free are IRCXpro, Exchange, and ConferenceRoom. Basically, Windows servers. C@lum, thanks . If SVN would get up and running some time today, I'd get ready to release this puppy. It's really wanting to hurry up and get that way
