34<PRE>Hi,
35
36There's a FIXME in the ADD section of do_akill from akill.c regarding
37wanting a better way to check for an insane akill mask. I've found the
38following idea useful:
39
40 for (i = strlen(mask) - 1;
41 i &gt; 0 &amp;&amp; mask[i] != '@'; i--) {
42 if (! strchr(&quot;*?.&quot;, mask[i])) {
43 nonwild++;
44 }
45 }
46
47 if (AkillWildThresh &amp;&amp; nonwild &lt; AkillWildThresh) {
48 notice_lang(s_OperServ, u,
49 OPER_AKILL_MASK_TOO_GENERAL);
50 return;
51 }
52
53i.e. it counts from right to left in the mask checking how many characters
54there are which don't match '?', '*' or '.'. AkillWildThresh would be a
55config option, an example setting of 4 would prevent the following akills:
56
57*@*
58*@?*
59*@*?com
60*@*.com
61
62but would allow akills such as:
63
64*@*a.com
65*@foobar*
66
67Works for me, and is nicely configurable.
