DESCRIPTION

       Quassel IRC is a modern, cross-platform, distributed IRC client, meaning that one (or multiple) client(s) can attach to and detach  from  a
       central core -- much like the popular combination of screen and a text-based IRC client such as WeeChat, but graphical. In addition to this
       uniqe feature, we aim to bring a pleasurable, comfortable chatting experience to all major platforms (including Linux(R),  Windows(R),  and
       MacOS  X(R)  as	well  as Qtopia-based cell phones and PDAs), making communication with your peers not only convenient, but also ubiquitous
       available.

NAME

       ngIRCd - the next generation IRC daemon

SYNOPSIS

       ngircd [ Options ]

DESCRIPTION

       ngIRCd is a free open source daemon for the Internet Relay Chat (IRC), developed under the GNU General Public License (GPL).

       It's  written  from  scratch and is not based upon the original IRCd like many others. It is easy to configure, supports server links (even
       with original ircd's) and runs on hosts with changing IP addresses (such as dial-in networks).

       Currently supported platforms include AIX, A/UX, FreeBSD, HP-UX, IRIX, Linux, Mac OS X, NetBSD, OpenBSD, Solaris, and Windows with Cygwin.

       As ngIRCd relies on UNIX standards and uses GNU automake and GNU autoconf there are good chances that it  also  supports  other	UNIX-based
       operating systems as well. By default, ngIRCd writes diagnostic and informational messages using the syslog mechanism.

OPTIONS

       The  default behavior of ngircd is to read its standard configuration file (see below), to detach from the controlling terminal and to wait
       for clients.

       You can use these options to modify this default:

       -f file, --config file
	      Use file as configuration file.

       -n, --nodaemon
	      Don't fork a child and don't detach from controlling terminal.  All log messages go to the console and you can use CTRL-C to  termi-
	      nate the server.

       -p, --passive
	      Disable  automatic connections to other servers. You can use the IRC command CONNECT later on as IRC Operator to link this ngIRCd to
	      other servers.

       -t, --configtest
	      Read, validate and display the configuration; then exit.

       -V, --version
	      Output version information and exit.

       -h, --help
	      Display a brief help text and exit.

FILES

       /etc/ngircd/ngircd.conf
	      The system wide default configuration file.
       /etc/ngircd/ngircd.motd
	      Default "message of the day" (MOTD).

SIGNALS

       The daemon understands the following signals:

       TERM   Shut down all connections and terminate the daemon.

       HUP    Shut down all listening sockets, re-read the configuration file and re-initialize the daemon.

HINTS

       It's wise to use "ngircd --configtest" to validate the configuration file after changing it.

DEBUGGING

       When ngIRCd is compiled with debug code, that is, its source code has been ./configure'd with  "--enable-debug"	and/or	"--enable-sniffer"
       (witch enables debug mode automatically as well), you can use two more command line options and two more signals to debug problems with the
       daemon itself or IRC clients:

       Options:

       -d, --debug
	      Enable debug mode and log extra messages.

       -s, --sniffer
	      Enable IRC protocol sniffer, which logs all sent and received IRC commands to the console/syslog. This option requires  that  ngIRCd
	      has been ./configure'd with "--enable-sniffer" and enables debug mode automatically, too.

       Signals:

       USR1   Toggle debug mode on and off during runtime.

       USR2   Dump internal server state to the console/syslog when debug mode is on (use command line option --debug or signal USR1).
