13 * class {} blocks MUST be specified before anything that uses them. That

18 * then general access, then restricted.
20 * privset {} blocks MUST be specified before anything that uses them. That
21 * means they must be defined before operator {}.

1415 * Acceptable options are sha1, sha256, spki_sha256, sha512 and spki_sha512. Networks
1416 * running versions of charybdis prior to charybdis 3.5 MUST use sha1 for certfp_method.
1418 * The spki_* variants operate on the SubjectPublicKeyInfo of the certificate, which does
1419 * not change unless the private key is changed. This allows the fingerprint to stay
1420 * constant even if the certificate is reissued. These fingerprints will be prefixed with
1421 * "SPKI:SHA2-256:" or "SPKI:SHA2-512:" depending on the hash type. These fingerprints
1422 * are not supported on servers running charybdis 3.5.3 or earlier.
1424 * To generate a fingerprint from a certificate file, please use the mkfingerprint utility
1425 * program located in the bin/ subdirectory of your IRCd installation. Running it with no
1426 * arguments will give you a brief usage message; it takes method and filename arguments.
