******************************* IMPORTANT *************************************
*********** Note for those who dont bother reading docs *****************
* Reading INSTALL is now a must, as the old DPATH is now specified when *
* configure is run. *
* - You now need to ./configure --prefix="/path/to/install/it" *
* The old config format WILL NOT WORK. Please see doc/example.conf (!) *
* *
* The old kline format WILL NOT WORK. Please use convertklines which *
* will be installed with your ircd! *
*************************************************************************
******************************* REQUIREMENTS **********************************
Necessary Requirements:
- A supported platform (look below)
- A working dynamic load library, unless
compiling as static, without module
support.
- A working lex. Solaris /usr/ccs/bin/lex
appears to be broken, on this system flex
should be used.
- A working bison or byacc. FreeBSD and BSD/OS
byacc are currently broken, and will dump core
when building the ircd_parser.y.
Feature Specific Requirements:
- For the SSL Challenge controlled OPER feature and encrypted server links,
a working OpenSSL library
- For dynamic message locale support, a working gettext (intl) library
- For encrypted oper and (optional) server passwords, a working DES and/or
MD5 library
*******************************************************************************
- To report bugs in hybrid, send the bug report to [email protected]
- Known bugs are listed in the BUGS file
- See the INSTALL document for info on configuring and compiling
ircd-hybrid.
- Please read doc/index.txt to get an overview of the current documentation.
- Old Hybrid 5/6 configuration files are no longer supported. All conf
files will have to be converted to the Hybrid 7 format. A convertconf
utility is provided and installed into bin/.
- If you are wondering why config.h is practically empty, its because many
things that were once in config.h are now specified in the 'general'
block of ircd.conf. Look at example.conf for more information about
these options.
- There is now a mailing list for general discussion of Hybrid. To subscribe
to the Hybrid List, send email to [email protected] with
the subject "subscribe hybrid".
- SOLARIS USERS: this code appears to tickle a bug in older gcc and
egcs ONLY on 64-bit Solaris7. gcc-2.95 and SunPro C on 64bit should
work fine, and any gcc or SunPro compiled on 32bit.
- SUPPORTED PLATFORMS: this code should compile without any warnings
on FreeBSD 3.x/4.x, RedHat 6.2, Debian Potato and Solaris 7/8 sparc.
Please let us know if you find otherwise.
It probably does not compile on AIX, IRIX or libc5 Linux.
- TESTED PLATFORMS: The code has been tested on the following platforms, and
is known to run properly.
FreeBSD 3.x/4.x
Linux glibc
Solaris 2.6/7/8
OpenBSD 2.8
NetBSD 1.4
- CYGWIN USERS: Unfortunately, cygwin support has been removed
- Please read doc/whats-new.txt for information about what is in this release
- Other files recommended for reading: BUGS, INSTALL
