A KLINE command without the ON clause now sets a propagated
("global") ban. KLINE commands with the ON clause work as
before.
Propagated klines can only be removed with an UNKLINE command
without the ON clause, and this removes them everywhere.
In fact, they remain in a deactivated state until the latest
expiry ever used for the mask has passed.
Propagated klines are part of the netburst using a new BAN
message and capab. If such a burst has an effect, both the
server name and the original oper are shown in the server
notice.
No checks whatsoever are done on bursted klines at this time.
The system should be extended to XLINE and RESV later.
There is currently no way to list propagated klines,
but TESTLINE works normally.
When a user receives a private message, notice or RPL_UMODEGMSG,
add the source to a special set of 5 target slots.
These slots are checked in the normal way when sending messages,
allowing a reply without using up a free target.
This feature will not be very useful if a user is being messaged
by many different users; to help this, messages blocked entirely
by +g or +R do not affect the targets. CTCP replies also remain
free in terms of targets.
A large group is any $$ or $# or a channel with more than
floodcount/2 local members, checked on each server separately.
Note that floodcount checks are done on the sender's server.
The special treatment is active for 15 seconds.
to restrict channel names to printable ascii only.
Like disable_fake_channels this only applies to joins
by local users; unlike disable_fake_channels it applies
to opers as well.
This gives a useful meaning to the cmode combo +mz-n:
messages from ops and voices go to all channel members,
messages from anyone else (on or off channel) go to ops.
With +mnz, messages from outside are not allowed at all.
A juped server is defined as a server that already
exists with a service{} server as uplink.
If a juped server is introduced by another server,
this generates snotes/logs as before.
Local-only server notices kept here because
hub_mask/leaf_mask tends to be specific to a (hub)
server. The same information is now available in
Netsplit notices.
These come from the name field which is empty for unknown
connections attempting to become a server.
Instead, put [@255.255.255.255] just like ratbox3 does.
These are unreliable in general and only useful
for violating certain restrictions.
Sending such messages to remote servers is still
possible, for securely messaging pseudoservers whether
service{}'ed or not. The special oper-only syntax
opers@server remains as well.
