Elemental-IRCd is a high performance, lightweight, and scalable IRC daemon. It
|
||
|
|
is a fork of the now-defunct ShadowIRCD and seeks to continue in the direction
|
||
|
|
ShadowIRCD was headed.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
An `/etc/rc.d/rc.elemental-ircd` script is supplied which supports
|
||
|
|
start/stop/restart/reload, which you can call from your rc.local:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
# /etc/rc.d/rc.local
|
||
|
|
# ==================
|
||
|
|
if [ -x /etc/rc.d/rc.elemental-ircd ]; then
|
||
|
|
/etc/rc.d/rc.elemental-ircd start
|
||
|
|
fi
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The `reload` parameter will make an already running ircd reload its
|
||
|
|
configuration file.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The elemental-ircd will refuse to run as root, so you need to create a user
|
||
|
|
for it:
|
||
|
|
groupadd -g 315 elemental-ircd
|
||
|
|
useradd -u 315 -g 315 -d /var/lib/elemental-ircd elemental-ircd
|
||
|
|
By default we name the user `elemental-ircd` with UID 315, and put it in the
|
||
|
|
`elemental-ircd` group (GID 315). If you want to give it a different name, uid
|
||
|
|
or gid, you can give
|
||
|
|
IRCD_UNAME=elemental-ircd
|
||
|
|
IRCD_UID=315
|
||
|
|
IRCD_GID=315
|
||
|
|
different values when running the slackbuild script.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Before starting the ircd, you'll need to create a configuration file for it.
|
||
|
|
It should be named `/etc/elemental-ircd/ircd.conf`. In that directory there
|
||
|
|
is already an `example.conf` and a `reference.conf`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Note: elemental-ircd comes with a binary called `/usr/bin/mkpasswd`, which is
|
||
|
|
used to create passwords for o-lines, but it creates a conflict with
|
||
|
|
`/usr/bin/mkpasswd` from expect, so the `mkpasswd` supplied by elemental-ircd
|
||
|
|
is renamed to `ircd-mkpasswd` by the SlackBuild script.
