35 | <PRE>Hi all, | |
36 | ||
37 | i think it would be very useful if services could detect when a netmerge (of | |
38 | any server on its own net, at any time) is completed. This would bring the | |
39 | following advantages/features: | |
40 | ||
41 | 1.) If you know that a server is linking at the moment and merging its data | |
42 | with the net by sending its users, channels, etc., you would also be able to | |
43 | determine whether a new user (from services' point of view) is just being | |
44 | introduced as part of the netmerge and was still on his server or logged | |
45 | onto his server shortly ago. | |
46 | Currently services send their logonnews to every "new" user they see on the | |
47 | net, even if this user has already received them during his irc session. | |
48 | ||
49 | 2.) Services would be able to wait until a linking server has completed its | |
50 | netmerge and then set chanmodes like autoop/voice - but only if necessary. | |
51 | ||
52 | All in all it would reduce the services traffic and the annoyance level for | |
53 | the users in case of a netsplit or svs restart. | |
54 | ||
55 | I think there is an easy way to determine the end of an netmerge without | |
56 | help of any special ircd features: | |
57 | You just need to send a PING to any new server on the net. If we can assume | |
58 | that every ircd software first sends all its own nicks/chans/.. and then | |
59 | starts to reply to commands, you should get the PONG after receiving all | |
60 | netmerge specific data. Before this PONG is being received, logonnews | |
61 | shouldn't be sent to users on this server and they also shouldn't get autoop | |
62 | or autovoice. When we get the PONG, we need to recheck the | |
63 | autoop/autovoice-status of every user on the server that just linked. | |
64 | ||
65 | Wolle | |
