hybrid 7 ircd
I installed hybrid 7 ircd on my box last night I've been trying to figure this out for awhile. I configured everything (I'm still thinking what i'm looking for is in the config) The directory resides in /usr/local/ircd
When I run it; it will tell me this --------- haled@locho: /usr/local/ircd/bin$./ircd ircd: version hybrid-7.0 ircd: pid 2347 ircd: running in background mode from /usr/local/ircd --------- So I'm going to assume that it's actually running. But whenever I try to connect to the server via irssi & bitchX it says that localhost does not have port 6667 open. When I use nmap the port doesn't show up. I tried opening the port via inetd.conf that didn't work out to well.. Does anyone have any suggestions? |
I tried the same server daemon and got the same thing. There is no verbose mode either to try and debug why it won't start. You might be better off just getting ircd or dancer-ircd which I got both to work with no problems.

Does it show up if you run 'ps -e | grep irc' ?

Nope it doesn't show-up, I tried IRCD and I don't even know what the funk happend there, everything got scattered around, it was kinda funny but a hassle at the sametime. I'll try out this .. dancer-ircd, thanks guys.
|
Heh, well in the example ircd.conf, there is a line that hat to be removed before it will start, they check if you are paying attention or not.

Um, I should probably mention, It looks like this:
Code:
/* REMOVE ME. The following line checks you've been reading. */ |
Oof; That makes me feel like a dirty banus; Thanks
|
Haha.. I feel dumb now.. that's most likely what I missed as well. Oh well, stupid little annoyances I would have to say that is and quite simply.. stupid.
Cheers. |
I've spent around 2 hours tweaking this config trying to figure out what the hell was wrong with it. All it came down to is removing one stupid line. STUPID! Still I laugh :)

Hi, I'm new here, so forgive me for barging in to your thread.
I have YDL 3.0 and installed hybrid 7 yesterday, using: ./configure make && make install Which appeared to go smoothly (to my untrained eyes anyway) I now seem to have an /usr/local/ircd dir but I can't seem to find an ircd.conf anywhere. I have however got an example.conf (I have removed - havent_read_conf = 1; ) Should I simply rename it to ircd.conf And can anyone help me with setting up ircd as a service (in the same way that httpd is a service, i.e. loads at boot time, can be stopped and re-started) Thanks, Doug. |

But somewhere in your startup scripts will do just fine. Also note that ircd can't or shouldn't be started as root, so in my rc.local file I put something like this to start it as the user nobody: su nobody -c /usr/local/ircd/bin/ircd |
/\ Thanks for that trickykid. It seems to be working, although when I try to connect to the server, it tells me I need to install identd to use the server :confused: time for a bit of :study:

I do believe you can configure IRCD to disable this feature. If its going to be a public IRC Server though, I'd suggest enabling it. |
Yeah, should look something like this in your conf file under the auth section, last line there, just make the yes a no:
Code:
auth { -trickykid |
/\ Cool trickykid, that's a big help. I probably will disable the identd as I'm not planning to make this server public, at least not yet. ;)
