Is static compiling possible with unreal under linux? i read some references to it in the changelogs, but i haven't been able to figure out how to do it. (or if it's even possible)

Thanks in advance.

Why would you want to? The advantage of using modules is to allow you to upgrade [about 95% of] your ircd without having to /restart it - just a quick cvs update, make, if only commands.so stuff changed, you can get away with a quick /rehash and you're set...

(Though most major upgrades like 3.2.1 -> 3.2.2b etc would require a restart because of changes in the ircd binary itself :-\ .)

I wouldn't want to use for any live irc server, but i am just testing out some things. I think i found out how to do it though, and it doesn't compile errorfree

So i guess i'll just forget about it, thanks for your time.
