[edit] Installing
How to install ngircd.
[edit] Simple
apt-get install ngircd, or similiar :)
[edit] From source
0: get the software from developer git
git clone git://ngircd.barton.de/ngircd.git
1: optional: make changes to source code
Notice: This patch only works in standalone mode atm!!! no networking is possible between servers. If you want to, you can enable anonymous<->pseudonymous coexistance mode by applying the XorPatch. Either you do it by hand (like shown just below) or you just download the source code with patches already applied and goto step 2 with it.
XorPatches.diff contains the diff file for the above changes. since the latest updates of ngircd this file has been deprecated!
git clone git://ngircd.barton.de/ngircd.git cd ngircd wget http://kaos.cryptoanarchy.org/XorPatches.diff patch -p1 < XorPatches.diff
then goto next step:
2: generate config program
cd ngircd ./autogen
3: optional: read about config options
./configure --help
4: you probably want SSL encryption
./configure --with-openssl
or if that does not work
./configure --with-gnutls
5: compile ngircd
make
6: optional: install ngircd automagically (also installs man files)
make install
to uninstall it later:
make uninstall
7: optional: install ngircd manually
- the ngircd binary is named ./src/ngircd/ngircd after compile is successful. move it somewhere.
- type ./ngircd --help to get info on what it requires to run (not much)
[edit] ngircd.conf
locate the file, open it and read it. then make those changes you like to make :d
its probably at /etc/ngircd or /usr/local/etc/ngircd
man ngircd.conf has more info :)
[edit] Enable anon channels
If you are using XorPatches, in the config file, add this to [FEATURES].
[FEATURES]
DNS = no
Ident = no
pam = no
ScrubCTCP = yes # silent drop CTCP commands (no ctcp version or file sharing, no ip leak)
MorePrivacy = yes # remove logon time, idle time and some other
AllowAnon = yes # allow anon channels + pseudo/anon coexistance mode ("/mode +a" in #example)
[edit] make SSL ciphers
...um? i forgot how.
