This is: 1: Unethical 2: Depending on the country, Illegal 3: Useless against anyone using OTR, Omemo or even the weak blowfish encryption 4: 100% ineffective if the users do DCC chat. and it is a perfect way to get an empty network very fast. as for modules used in this type of operation, they can ...

Test also # nmap --script ssl-enum-ciphers -p6697 localhost As for weechat: irc.server.netname.ssl_verify = off irc.server.netname.ssl_priorities = NORMAL:-VERS-SSL3.0 SECURE256:-VERS-TLS-ALL:+VERS-TLS1.2 or SECURE256:-VERS-TLS-ALL:+VERS-TLS1.3 might be too high for your setup. Again, client side pe...

There is nothing wrong with the server and ssl/tls on the server side. This is pure pebcak client side. Sometimes related to what the client is capable of handling in regards to cyphers used in effect by the server. If the server specifies only a few cyphers to use and or a specific ssl or tls versi...

Here is my testing example using weechat and unrealircd 4.2.1 I created conf/authentication_block.conf which is loaded in unrealircd.conf Added a block: require authentication { mask *@127.0.0.1; reason "Too many abusers from this ip, please authenticate"; }; Created a user with netadmin p...

Thanks for your very dedicated reply :D I will address a few points and I agree with most of what you said, except one detail and I must state that at the time, I felt I did not expressed what I suggested properly given the complexity of this matter. I take it you currently have positive experiences...

I just decided to test this new feature and maybe there are a few things to consider: info: Authentication https://unrealircd.org/docs/Authentication https://unrealircd.org/docs/Require_authentication_block https://unrealircd.org/docs/Set_block#set::authentication-prompt CertFP https://unrealircd.or...

... yah... high five! rock on dude!!

This is an idea that I have been pursuing for a long time. Forcing the use of encrypted communication by OTR, Omemo, PGP and even xsalsa20 or blowfish. Details are explained here: https://bugs.unrealircd.org/view.php?id=5100 Perhaps a module could be done in order to start testing this idea and then...

So far the module looks great 8) I was wondering if it would be easy to implement the possibility of customizing the replies send by the module: You have to be connected for at least 60 seconds before being able to /LIST You have to be identified with services before being able to /LIST The customiz...

Unacceptable since it decreases general security: So, you have three other ways to deal with it: - Use older Unreal version and wait for a needed qwebirc functionality. - Accept your secure users not having the +z umode, and wait for a needed qwebirc functionality. - Modify qwebirc yourself, to alw...

Although currently unable to connect to the irc chat due to this detail , I have been updated about this problem and tested it myself. Before the flames come, lets just say that I am 100% in favor of security by default and anti clear text protocols 20 years ago. In fact why are we even allowing the...

So, recently, while trying to connect to unrealircd support chat: Your IP address does not resolve to a host. Please get proper reverse DNS Caused by features in 4.0.16 Just happens that some of us, actually and intentionally do set an improper reverse DNS for specific reasons. Q: Does this active f...

This is probably all of what you want or at least a good start. If we have no logs we cannot answer questions because we simply don't know. On hexchat: /set irc_logging off /set stamp_log off /set stamp_text off /set url_logging off /set url_grabber off On unrealircd: # https://unrealircd.org/docs/L...

As I was preparing the requested reply I went over configs and configs and eventually found out the problem while re-doing configs form scratch and deciding to test other stuff. The listen blocks are set like in this example: servers listen links block only https://www.unrealircd.org/docs/Configurat...

I mentioned this previously here . In regards to the following feature which is greatly appreciated and useful to control bot attacks and much more. An additional enhancement should be made to give more control to the admins when several clones are connected. The best example of such clone situation...
