Today I have released 6.1.7.2. It fixes an issue for people using Central Blocklist when the central blocklist server is down. Other than that, it removes support for local curlinstall since it is no longer needed. See also the release notes . That's all, there is nothing more, other than the versio...

There was a server problem indeed. It has now been resolved. Sorry for the inconvenience.

It has been only a month since previous release, but I'm happy to announce UnrealIRCd 6.1.7(.1). The main focus of this release is adding new features, such as ASN support, more flexible ban user { } and require authentication { } blocks and more. See the Release Notes for all information. UPDATE: A...

They are case insensitive by default, yeah, in UnrealIRCd anyway...

I see this is the case for 15+ years now so.. hmm I think this needs a bit more careful checking (match_simple is used from more than 110 places). Don't want to do it post-rc1 anyway. Filed as https://bugs.unrealircd.org/view.php?id=6431 I suggest to use regex for now if you really only want to matc...

It seems match_simple() also makes _ special, similar to match_esc(). I don't think that is intended and more like a copy-paste error in the source code (between the functions). I would have to look into the history to really be sure, though

The release candidate for future version 6.1.7 is available for testing. Please report any issues to https://bugs.unrealircd.org/.

Among the new features are ASN support and more flexible ban user { } and require authentication { } blocks. The full release notes can be found here.

In the URL that CrazyCat posted, https://www.unrealircd.org/docs/Snomasks you can see that the 'j' snomask will give you notifications of joins, parts and kicks. MODE Yournick +s +j I believe the feature was added in UnrealIRCd 6.0.0. See also that page regarding set::snomask-on-oper and oper::snoma...

Today I'm happy to announce the release of UnrealIRCd 6.1.6 stable. This is mostly a bug fix release but also comes with some enhancements. See the Release notes for all the information.

This month UnrealIRCd celebrates its 25th birthday. IRC changed over all those years. There's a clear consolidation, with fewer IRC networks now than before, but IRC is still alive and kicking. That's in part due to a persistent user base but also very much thanks to all those people who keep IRC up...

Perhaps too late right now, but still useful for when your cert at comodo expires a year from now (or for some other IRC server): The docs at https://www.unrealircd.org/docs/Using_Let's_Encrypt_with_UnrealIRCd explain how to use let's encrypt with unrealircd. It deals with the "Permission denie...

Indeed, security groups and mask items are great

Someone pointed out that the Merch shop country selection was rather limited. This has now been fixed. Within the EU orders are bearable with regards to shipping fees and there are no customs or other extra costs involved. For people outside the EU, the shipping costs are higher (not much we can do ...

Today I have released UnrealIRCd 6.1.5 stable. This is a regular release with various enhancements and bug fixes. More information in the release notes .
