UnrealIRCd Forums

Hi, I'm trying to compile UnrealIRCd to support chrooting. I've read the forums and I see that I am supposed to define the following:
CHROOTDIR
IRC_UID
IRC_GID

The config.h file also mentions that I should define DPATH but I'm not sure what all these (other than the UIDs) should be set to - should DPATH and CHROOTDIR be the same? Will the install script install everything automatically to the proper directories? What other configuration will I have to do?

I've looked for documentation about this feature but there just doesn't seem to be any at all. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Seeing you got the uid and gid things, the only other thing you have to do is add the:
#define CHROOTDIR
(takes no parameter)

That's all.. And then recompile of course.

DPATH is already set during ./Config (in another .h file).

The IRCd is simply chrooted to the path you specified during ./Config (2nd question in ./Config) eg '/home/irc/Unreal'.
