Also seeing "Connection throttling" messages after restarting webircgateway (https://github.com/kiwiirc/webircgateway).

is not enough.

It reports:

modules.optional.conf:218: unknown directive set::connthrottle

I confirm it works fine with raised settings, many thanks!

So data/reputation.db is not cleared/deleted after the server restart?

Running single server on UnrealIRCd 4.2.4.1. Throttling just happened and there are really 20 new legit IP addresses within 60 seconds. I assume IP reputation data is not preserved after IRCd restart so that could be one of the reasons? I've raised allowed connections to: local-throttle 40:60; globa...

Many thanks for reply.

I find it very odd, too. Is it possible to have more details in log about connthrottle activities? To see what IP addresses are rejected/accepted?

Wondering how to disable connthrottle module without changing modules.optional.conf? Tried changing local-throttle and global-throttle numbers without success: set { connthrottle { new-users { local-throttle 20:60; global-throttle 30:60; }; }; }; Also noticed in connthrottle.c that reputation-gather...

Did anybody manage to make Kiwi IRC web client work directly with UnrealIRCd (without gateway)?

Is it possible to use https://github.com/kiwiirc/kiwiirc without https://github.com/kiwiirc/webircgateway

We are already using proxy detector, DNSBL and have captcha when connecting. It is easy to change IP addresses when using mobile broadband modem or mobile phone. Just restart it or turn airplane mode on, wait 2 minutes, then turn it off. With the new module, spammers wouldn't pass thorough without r...

We are having trouble fighting spammers and often using KLINE/ZLINE/GLINE to ban IP addresses. This is not ideal solution, since many users are using dynamic IP addresses. Wondering how to implement this scenario: When user connects to IRC server to receive message: "Access from your IP address is f...

But why such crond hangs? It needs kill -9.

Of course we are using: ./unrealircd start

Also using ~/unrealircd croncheck in crontab and found that after the crash there is crond process hanging with postdrop trying to send some email.

Anyway, not sure how does UnrealIRCd "offers me" to send anything, since I am not always logged on

Many thanks Gottem, got it now with "unrealircd backtrace". Is such report different than the one gdb would create directly?

I've opened the bug report, hopefully Syszop will solve this issue.

Right, but the crash happens every 2 days, so I need to launch it in background and log off somehow?

"unrealircd backtrace" doesn't seem to work, it just prints out "Usage: unrealircd [-f <config>] [-h <servername>] [-p <port>] [-x <loglevel>] [-t] [-F]"

The server was full, I wasn't around. Now it happened again when I was there, nobody did anything special: kernel: unrealircd[41776]: segfault at 4841e349 ip 000000004841e349 sp 00007ffe44191158 error 14 in 8EF21E.jointhrottle.so[7ff2ec4c3000+2000] Two days ago: kernel: unrealircd[11298]: segfault a...
