  34 <PRE>&gt;<i>    Hi folks, The IRC network I administer has  ceased to operate, it will
  35 </I>&gt;<i>be back in a few months as a fresh newly  designed service, and as such, I
  36 </I>&gt;<i>wanted to completely overhaul my IRC Server. I  have been running
  37 </I>&gt;<i>Services4.4.5 with Elite3.1.1. I know Elite wasn't  supported, but I didnt
  38 </I>&gt;<i>have many problems with it. This time however, I'd  like to iron out
  39 </I>&gt;<i>alllllll the bumps, so I was wondering if anyone can reccomend  some good
  40 </I>&gt;<i>IRCD's, which are compatible with Services, and in addition do the
  41 </I>&gt;<i>following :   User Hostmasking, (A requirement) Wingate / Proxy detection
  42 </I>&gt;<i>(an optional extra, not  needed, but preferred) Any other fancy features
  43 </I>&gt;<i>you care to  mention.   Obviously, the fundamental requirement is that
  44 </I>&gt;<i>they're compatible with Services, anyone got suggestions ?   Also, is
  45 </I>&gt;<i>there any kinda estimated release date for  4.5 ?   Probably a stupid
  46 </I>&gt;<i>qustion, but is Services  compatible with the likes of ConfrenceRoom from
  47 </I>&gt;<i>www.confrenceroom.com, I dunno, the idea  of a multithreaded Ircd
  48 </I>&gt;<i>sometimes appeals to me...   Thanks for your time,   Ciar&#225;n.

  50 Unreal IRCd contains all the features you mention, but there have been
  51 stability problems in the past.  Nevertheless, if you are careful about
  52 which versions you use, it seems to be a good choice, although not on the
  53 &quot;official&quot; support list.
  54
  55 You'll need a specially patched version of Services to cope with the
  56 mangled hostnames.  I remember writing such a patch to support Unreal quite
  57 a while ago.  I don't know whether anyone has merged it into any of the
  58 source trees or whether the original patch would be compatible with the
  59 latest versions of Services (should be, or at least easy to figure out).
  60
  61 I don't know what Bahamut's feature list is like, but I would guess it's
  62 the most feature-rich &quot;officially supported&quot; IRCd available.
  63
  64 As for multi-threaded IRCd's, I've never had any experience with them (or
  65 knew they existed, even).
