UnrealIRCd Forums

Hey,

I'm using the Unreal binary (windows) version

I was wondering if you can start unreal via cmd line and change the unreal conf file location or do I have to compile to do so

Option 1) Make a unrealircd.conf that does nothing but 'include "yourconf.conf";'

Option 2) Recompile

Option 3) Nonexistant

Actually you can just uninstall and reinstall UnrealIRCd to the new path you want ;p.

When doing that, you might also consider running it as a service (that is an option you have during the install process), that way there will be no wircd GUI (and then things like 'unreal start' and 'unreal stop' [in the unrealircd dir] will work).

See what I was trying to do was put all the conf in one folder motds in another and such so the dir wasn't such a mess but I can deal with 3 config files out of place hehehe

Then Jasons option 1 is probably a good idea?

Unfortunately, Syzop, it will not take care of motds and rules, etc. This might be a nice feature, optional block changing the path/filename of ((oper|bot)?motd|rules)

A simple tld block for *@* should do the trick :).

Though, then you cannot decide to not have a rules file, but hey.. that isn't that bad ;p

perhaps a requirement to get rid of :P (that both tld::motd and tld::rules should be present).

correct, I was able to move some of the conf files into the conf folder by editing there placement via unrealircd.conf long with motds, logs and such the only 3 files I couldn't seem to move was unreal's & IRC Services mod and conf files but over all my dir for unreal looks alot cleaner and more org then before

The things from src/modules? Oh. just modules/ in your case, I think? You can move those, and your alias configurations. Just remember that the path is not relative to the including config, but to the unreal installation directory.
