FQIRCD
The Story
Bahamut was nice, but we wanted a bit more than the standard Bahamut offered. In the very beginning we only had small optimizations for FreeQuest, like default hostmasking for Opers and other default settings. After a while we started to use the bahamut-inet6 project and started to do some additions to it.
The new FreeQuest IRCd
An entire new version of our ircd is currently being actively developed. It’s based on the Bahamut 1.8.x tree and clientside SSL from the bahamut-inet6 project. For a brief explanation of what improvements fqircd-2.x has that fqircd-1.x didn’t, please read below.
Features
- SSL support for clients
- OpenSSL encryption for server< ->server connections
- +q for clients (Hostmangling, ie. hide your real host to other users) , encodes the host with MD5 sum.
- +W mode for opers (Notice on WHOIS)
- +S channel mode (Only SSL enabled clients)
- +I channel mode (Invite Excempts)
- +e channel mode (Ban Excempts)
