23 | To install the new server, there is just a few changes to be made. | |

34 | Comment: I just found that compiling on our SUN SPARC with GCC produces | |
35 | code that dumps core.. (that might not happen on your machine, try it, | |
36 | we may have out-of-date libraries). See netnews gnu.gcc.bug for a dis- | |
37 | cussion about the matter. It seems that gcc passes struct's in a | |
38 | different manner. | |

40 | * Server configuration | |
41 | ||
42 | Edit the include/config.h to your hearts content, avoiding going | |
43 | beyond the warning line, unless you are *absolute* sure you know | |
44 | what you are doing. | |
45 | If you happen to not take to this warning, you may end up with | |
46 | a server that will not function properly and annoy not only you, | |
47 | but users all around the world. | |
48 | ||
49 | Old irc client can be found in this package and if you want to use it, | |
50 | check Makefile in directory irc before compiling. There are other, | |
51 | better irc clients in distribution and the client distributed with | |
52 | this version is simply something to begin with if you don't happen | |
53 | to have other clients available. | |
54 | ||
55 | This version was brought to you by jto@tolsun.oulu.fi and send any | |
56 | bug fixes and suggestions to me. | |
57 | ||
58 | NOTE: This server does *NOT* have MAIL system installed by default. | |
59 | The reason is that it doesn't work with many systems. | |
60 | ||
61 | This version introduces you string channels, starting with | |
62 | a plus (+) sign. The first person joining a string channel | |
63 | claims it's ownership and after that is entitiled to use /mode | |
64 | command. Ownerships can be given and taken away with | |
65 | /mode <channel> +o <nickname> and /mode <channel> -o <nickname> | |
66 | Other flags are: s - secret, p - private, l - limited, i - inviteonly. | |
67 | m - moderated, n - no private messages to channel, | |
68 | t - topic settable by operator only | |
69 | New command /KICK <channel> <user> kicks a user off channel. | |
