-# #
-# Enter the port and address bindings here. #
-# #
-# bind address - specifies which the address which ports bind #
-# port - opens an unused port #
-# type - can be 'clients' or 'servers'. The clients type is #
-# a standard tcp based socket, the servers type is a #
+# #
+# Enter the port and address bindings here. #
+# #
+# bind address - Specifies which address ports bind to. Leaving this #
+# field blank binds the port to all IP's available. #
+# #
+# port - The port number to bind to. You may specify a port #
+# range here, e.g. "6667-6669,7000,7001". If you do #
+# this, the server will count each port within your #
+# range as a separate binding, making the above #
+# example equivalent to five separate bind tags. #
+# A failure on one port in the range does not prevent #
+# the entire range from being bound, just that one #
+# port number. #
+# #
+# type - Can be 'clients' or 'servers'. The clients type is #
+# a standard TCP based socket, the servers type is a #
# also a TCP based connection but of a different #
-# format. #
-# default - if the port type is 'servers' then this can be #
-# specified. If set to 'yes', it indicates that this #
-# port is the default route for all /connect commands.#
-# if you do not bind your default route to an #
-# external ip, or all ip's, you may have connection #
-# problems. #
-# #
+# format. SSL support is provided by modules, to #
+# enable SSL support, please read the module section #
+# of this configuration file. #
+# #
+# ssl - When using m_ssl_gnutls.so or m_ssl_openssl.so #
+# modules, you must define this value to use ssl on #
+# that port. Valid values are 'gnutls' or 'openssl' #
+# respectively. If the module is not loaded, this #
+# setting is ignored. #
+# #
+# transport - If you have m_spanningtree.so loaded, along with #
+# either one of the SSL modules (m_ssl_gnutls or #
+# m_ssl_openssl) or m_ziplinks.so, then you may make #
+# use of this value. #
+# Setting it to 'openssl' or 'gnutls' or 'zip' #
+# indicates that the port should accept connections #
+# using the given transport name. Transports are #
+# layers which sit on top of a socket and change the #
+# way data is sent and received, e.g. encryption, #
+# compression, and other such things. Because this #
+# may not be limited in use to just encryption, #
+# the 'ssl' value used for client ports does not #
+# exist for servers, and this value is used instead. #

+# #
+# You should also include a flood="x" line which indicates #
# the number of lines a user may place into their buffer at once #
-# before they are disconnected for excess flood. The default is to #
-# DISABLE this feature. A recommended value is 10. A counter is #
-# maintained for each user which is reset every 'threshold' seconds #
-# and specifying this threshold value with threshold="X" indicates #
-# how often the counter is reset. For example, with flood="5" and #

# #
# You may optionally specify the sendq size and ping frequency of #

+# receive more than they send in normal circumstances. The default #
# if not specified is 4096. #
# #

+# IPs, for example, the CIDR range 192.168.1.0-192.168.1.255 may be #
+# represented as 192.168.1.0/24). This means that abuse across an ISP #

+# ipv4clone: #
+# This specifies how many bits of an IP address should be checked #
+# against cloning in the <connect> tags, for example, if <connect> #
+# tags specified a limit of 2 (low!), and three users attempted to #
+# connect in the IP range 192.168.1.0-192.168.1.255, and ipv4clone #
+# was set to '24', the third connection would be disconnected. #
+# #
+# Valid values are 0-32, but you *don't* want 0. Using values which #

+# #
+# Setting these to their maximum value (32, 128) will result in #

+# If you do not define this value, then InspIRCd will attempt to #
+# determine your DNS server from your operating system. On POSIX #
+# platforms, InspIRCd will read /etc/resolv.conf, and populate this #
+# value with the first DNS server address found. On Windows platforms #
+# InspIRCd will check the registry, and use the DNS server of the #
+# first active network interface, if one exists. #

+# prefixquit - A prefix to be placed on the start of a client's #
+# quit message #
+# #
+# suffixquit - A suffix to be placed on the end of a client's #
+# quit message. #
+# #
+# fixedquit - A fixed quit message to display for all client #
+# QUITS. If specified, overrides both prefixquit #
+# and suffixquit options. #
+# #
+# prefixpart - A prefix to be placed on the start of a client's #
+# part message #
+# #
+# suffixpart - A suffix to be placed on the end of a client's #
+# part message. #
+# #
+# fixedpart - A fixed part message to display for all client #
+# parts. If specified, overrides both prefixpart #
+# and suffixpart options. #
+# #
+# allowhalfop - Allows the +h channel mode #
+# #
# noservices - If noservices is true, yes, or 1, then the first #
# user into a channel gets founder status. This is #
# only useful on networks running the m_chanprotect #
# module without services. #
-# netbuffersize - size of the buffer used to receive data from #
-# clients. The ircd may only read() this amount #
-# of text in one go at any time. (OPTIONAL) #
+# #
+# qprefix - qprefix is used by the chanprotect module to give #
+# a visible prefix to users set +q (founder) in chan #
+# It should be set to something sensible like ~ or ! #
+# If not set, no prefix is applied to users with +q #
+# #
+# aprefix - aprefix is the same as qprefix, except it is for #
+# giving users with mode +a (protected) a prefix #
+# #
+# deprotectself - If this value is set to yes, true, or 1, then any #
+# user with +q or +a may remove the +q or +a from #
+# themselves. The default setting is to not enable #
+# this feature, which stops even the founder taking #
+# away their founder status without using services. #
+# #
+# deprotectothers-If this value is set to yes, true, or 1, then any #
+# user with +q or +a may remove the +q or +a from #
+# other users. The default setting is to not enable #
+# this feature, so that only +q may remove +a, and #
+# nothing but services may remove +q. #
+# #
+# cyclehosts - If this is set to true, yes or 1, then when a #
+# user's hostname changes, they will appear to quit #
+# and then rejoin with their new host. This prevents #
+# clients from being confused by host changes, #
+# especially in the case of bots, and it is #
+# recommended that this option is enabled. #
+# #
+# moduledir - This optional value indicates a runtime change of #
+# the location where modules are to be found. This #
+# does not add a supplementary directory. There can #
+# only be one module path. #
+# #
+# syntaxhints - If set to yes, true or 1, when a user does not #
+# give enough parameters for a command, a syntax #
+# hint will be given (using the RPL_TEXT numeric) #
+# as well as the standard ERR_NEEDMOREPARAMS. #
+# #
+# announcets - If this value is defined to yes, true, or 1, then #
+# a channels' timestamp is updated, the users on #
+# the channel will be informed of the change via #
+# a server notice to the channel with the old and #
+# new TS values in the timestamp. If you think this #
+# is just pointless noise, define the value to 0. #
+# #
+# ircumsgprefix - Use undernet style message prefix for channel #
+# NOTICE and PRIVMSG adding the prefix to the line #
+# of text sent out. Eg. NOTICE @#test :@ testing #
+# vs. the off setting: NOTICE @#test :testing #
+# #
+# hostintopic - If this is set to yes (the default) then the full #
+# nick!user@host is shown for who set a TOPIC last. #
+# if set to no, then only the nickname is shown. #
+# #
+# serverpingfreq- This value, when set, allows you to change the #
+# frequency of server to server PING messages. This #
+# can help if you are having certain network issues. #
+# #
+# pingwarning - This should be set to a number between 1 and 59 if #
+# defined, and if it is defined will cause the server#
+# to send out a warning via snomask +l if a server #
+# does not answer to PING after this many seconds. #
+# This can be useful for finding servers which are #
+# at risk of pinging out due to network issues. #
+# #
+# defaultmodes - The default modes to be given to each channel on #
+# creation. Defaults to 'nt'. There should be no + #
+# or - symbols in this sequence, if you add them #
+# they will be ignored. You may add parameters for #
+# modes which take them. #
+# #
+# moronbanner - The NOTICE to show to users who are glined, zlined #
+# klined or qlined when they are disconnected. This #
+# is totally freeform, you may place any text here #
+# you wish. #
+# #
+# exemptchanops - This option allows channel operators to be exempted#
+# from certain channel modes. #
+# Supported modes are +SfFgNc. Defaults to off. #
+# #
+# invitebypassmodes - This option allows /invite to bypass modes #
+# other than +i. #

-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#- MODULE OPTIONS -#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#
-# #
-# These tags define which modules will be loaded on startup by your #
-# server. Add modules without any paths. When you make your ircd #
-# using the 'make' command, all compiled modules will be moved into #
-# the folder you specified when you ran ./configure. The module tag #
-# automatically looks for modules in this location. #
-# If you attempt to load a module outside of this location, either #
-# in the config, or via /LOADMODULE, you will receive an error. #
+# nouserdns - If set to yes, true or 1, no user DNS lookups #
+# will be performed for connecting users. This can #
+# save a lot of resources on very busy IRC servers. #
# #
-# By default, ALL modules are commented out. You must uncomment them #
-# or add lines to your config to load modules. Please refer to #
-# http://www.inspircd.org/wiki/Modules_List for a list of modules and#
-# each modules link for any additional conf tags they require. #
+# quietbursts - When synching or splitting from the network, a #
+# server can generate a lot of connect and quit #
+# snotices to the +C and +Q snomasks. Setting this #
+# value to yes squelches those messages, which can #
+# make them more useful for opers, however it will #
+# degrade their use by certain third party programs #
+# such as BOPM which rely on them to scan users when #
+# a split heals in certain configurations. #
# #
-# WINDOWS USERS PLEASE NOTE: You can still load these modules! They #
-# are incorporated into the executable and can be loaded and removed #
-# similarly to if they were in a ramdisk. #

+#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-# SECURITY CONFIGURATION #-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#
+# #
+# announceinvites #
+# - If this option is set, then invites are announced #
+# to the channel when a user invites another user. #
+# If you consider this to be unnecessary noise, #
+# set this to 'none'. To announce to all ops, set #
+# this to 'ops' and to announce to all users set the #
+# value to 'all'. #
+# #
+# The value 'dynamic' varies between 'ops' and 'all' #
+# settings depending on if the channel is +i or not. #
+# When the channel is +i, messages go only to ops, #
+# and when the channel is not +i, messages go to #
+# everyone. In short, the messages will go to every #
+# user who has power of INVITE on the channel. This #
+# is the recommended setting. #
+# #
+# disablehmac - If you are linking your InspIRCd to older versions #
+# then you can specify this option and set it to #
+# yes. 1.1.6 and above support HMAC and challenge- #
+# response for password authentication. These can #
+# greatly enhance security of your server to server #
+# connections when you are not using SSL (as is the #
+# case with a lot of larger networks). Linking to #
+# older versions of InspIRCd should not *usually* be #
+# a problem, but if you have problems with HMAC #
+# authentication, this option can be used to turn it #
+# off. #
+# #
+# hidemodes - If this option is enabled, then the listmodes #
+# given (e.g. +eI), will be hidden from users below #
+# halfop. This is not recommended to be set on mode #
+# +b, as it may break some features in popular #
+# clients such as mIRC. #
+# #
+# hidesplits - When set to 'yes', will hide split server names #
+# from non-opers. Non-opers will see '*.net *.split' #
+# instead of the server names in the quit message, #
+# identical to the way IRCu displays them. #
+# #
+# hidebans - When set to 'yes', will hide gline, kline, zline #
+# and qline quit messages from non-opers. For #
+# example, user A who is not an oper will just see #
+# (G-Lined) while user B who is an oper will see the #
+# text (G-Lined: Reason here) instead. #
+# #
+# hidewhois - When defined with a non-empty value, the given #
+# text will be used in place of the user's server #
+# in WHOIS, when a user is WHOISed by a non-oper. #
+# For example, most nets will want to set this to #
+# something like '*.netname.net' to conceal the #
+# actual server the user is on. #
+# #
+# flatlinks - When you are using m_spanningtree.so, and this #
+# value is set to yes, true or 1, /MAP and /LINKS #
+# will be flattened when shown to a non-opers. #
+# #
+# hideulines - When you are using m_spanningtree.so, and this #
+# value is set to yes, true or 1, then U-lined #
+# servers will be hidden in /LINKS and /MAP for non #
+# opers. Please be aware that this will also hide #
+# any leaf servers of a U-lined server, e.g. jupes. #
+# #
+# userstats - The userstats field is optional and specifies #
+# which stats characters in /STATS may be requested #
+# by non-operators. Stats characters in this field #
+# are case sensitive and are allowed to users #
+# independent of if they are in a module or the core #
+# #
+# operspywhois - If this is set then when an IRC operator uses #
+# /WHOIS on a user they will see all channels, even #
+# ones if channels are secret (+s), private (+p) or #
+# if the target user is invisible +i. #
+# #
+# customversion - If you specify this configuration item, and it is #
+# not set to an empty value, then when a user does #
+# a /VERSION command on the ircd, this string will #
+# be displayed as the second portion of the output, #
+# replacing the system 'uname', compile flags and #
+# socket engine/dns engine names. You may use this #
+# to enhance security, or simply for vanity. #
+# #
+# maxtargets - The maxtargets field is optional, and if not #
+# defined, defaults to 20. It indicates the maximum #
+# number of targets which may be given to commands #
+# such as PRIVMSG, KICK etc. #
+# #
+# hidekills - The hidekills value, if set, replaces the source #
+# of all oper-generated kills to be the given text #
+# to provide anonimity to your opers. #

+#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-# LIMITS CONFIGURATION #-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#
+# #
+# This configuration tag defines the maximum sizes of various types #
+# on IRC, such as the maximum length of a channel name, and the #
+# maximum length of a channel. Note that with the exception of the #
+# identmax value all values given here are the exact values you would #
+# expect to see on IRC. This contrasts with the older InspIRCd #
+# releases where these values would be one character shorter than #
+# defined to account for a null terminator on the end of the text. #
+# #
+# The identmax value has special meaning, as it may grow one #
+# character longer than you specify, to accomodate for a ~ character #
+# when m_ident is loaded. #
+# #
+# These values should match network-wide, otherwise you may end up #
+# with desyncs, and confusing your users by being able to use a nick #
+# of a certain length on one server but not on another. Servers will #
+# link with mismatched values, but this is NOT recommended as a long #
+# term measure! #
+# #
+# Values here should be self explanitory: #
+# #
+# maxnick - The maximum length of a nickname #
+# maxchan - The maximum length of a channel name #
+# maxmodes - The maximum number of parameterized mode changes #
+# per line #
+# maxident - The maximum length of an ident/username value #
+# maxquit - The maximum length of a quit message #

+# Logging
+# -------
+#
+# Logging is covered with the <log> tag, which you may use to change
+# the behaviour of the logging of the IRCd.
+#
+# In InspIRCd as of 1.2, logging is pluggable and very extensible.
+# Different files can log the same thing, different 'types' of log can
+# go to different places, and modules can even extend the log tag
+# to do what they want.
+#
+# An example log tag would be:
+# <log method="file" type="OPER" level="default" target="opers.log">
+# which would log all information on /oper (failed and successful) to
+# a file called opers.log.
+#
+# There are many different types which may be used, and modules may
+# generate their own. A list of useful types:
+# - USERS - information relating to user connection and disconnection
+# - CHANNELS - information relating to joining and parting of channels.
+# XXX someone doc more on this
+#
+# You may also log *everything* by using a type of *, and subtract things out
+# of that by using -TYPE - for example "* -USERINPUT -USEROUTPUT".
+#
+# The following log tag is highly default and uncustomised. It is recommended you
+# sort out your own log tags. This is just here so you get some output.
+<log method="file" type="* -USERINPUT -USEROUTPUT -m_spanningtree" level="default" target="ircd.log">
+
+#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#- WHOWAS OPTIONS -#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#
+# #
+# This tag lets you define the behaviour of the /whowas command of #
+# your server. #
+# #
+# groupsize - Controls the maximum entries per nick shown when #
+# performing a /whowas nick. Setting this to 0 dis- #
+# ables whowas completely. #
+# #
+# maxgroups - The maximum number of nickgroups that can be added #
+# to the list. If max is reached, oldest group will #
+# be deleted first like a FIFO. A groupsize of 3 and #
+# a maxgroups of 5000 will allow for 5000 nicks to #
+# be stored with a history of 3, thus giving a total #
+# of 3 * 5000 = 15000 entries. A setting of 0 dis- #
+# ables whowas completely. #
+# #
+# maxkeep - The maximum time a nick is kept in the whowas list #
+# before being pruned. Time may be specified in #
+# seconds, or in the following format: 1y2w3d4h5m6s #
+# meaning one year, two weeks, three days, 4 hours, #
+# 5 minutes and 6 seconds. All fields in this format #
+# are optional. Minimum is 1 hour, if less InspIRCd #
+# will default back to 1 hour. #

-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#- ALIAS DEFINITIONS -#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#
-# #
-# If you have the m_alias.so module loaded, you may also define #
-# aliases as shown below. They are commonly used to provide shortcut #
-# commands to services, however they are not limited to jsut this use.#
-# An alias tag requires the following values to be defined in it: #
-# #
-# text - The text to detect at the start of the line, #
-# must be at the start of the line to trigger the #
-# alias. May contain spaces, but case insensitive. #
-# replace - The text to replace 'text' with. Usually this #
-# will be "PRIVMSG ServiceName :" or similar. #
-# requires - If you provide a value for 'requires' this means #
-# the given nickname MUST be online for the alias #
-# to successfully trigger. If they are not, then #
-# the user receives a 'no such nick' 401 numeric. #
-# uline - Defining this value with 'yes', 'true' or '1' #
-# will ensure that the user given in 'requires' #
-# must also be on a u-lined server, as well as #
-# actually being on the network. If the user is #
-# online, but not on a u-lined server, then an #
-# oper-alert is sent out as this is possibly signs #
-# of a user trying to impersonate a service. #

+#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#- INSANE BAN OPTIONS -#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#
+# #
+# This optional tag allows you to specify how wide a gline, eline, #
+# kline, zline or qline can be before it is forbidden from being #
+# set. By setting hostmasks="yes", you can allow all G, K, E lines, #
+# no matter how many users the ban would cover. This is not #
+# recommended! By setting ipmasks="yes", you can allow all Z lines, #
+# no matter how many users these cover too. Needless to say we #
+# don't recommend you do this, or, set nickmasks="yes", which will #
+# allow any qline. #
+# #
+# The trigger value indicates how wide any mask will be before it is #
+# prevented from being set. The default value is 95.5% if this tag is #
+# not defined in your configuration file, meaning that if your #
+# network has 1000 users, a gline matching over 955 of them will be #
+# prevented from being added. #
+# #
+# Please note that remote servers (and services) are exempt from #
+# these restrictions and expected to enforce their own policies #
+# locally! #
