| Summary | 0002857: Using SSL cert as oper password | ||||
| Description | I have noticed the docs don't mention anything about using a SSL cert as the oper password. This is only mentioned on the forums a couple of times, hence well unknown. I think more people asking for a more secure oper block would love to see this in the documentation so they may set it up themselves. | ||||

A peice of text for the docs: To use SSL authentication for the oper block, put the path to the public key for the oper as the password, and make the auth type "sslclientcert" (Ex: password “path/to/your.cert” { sslclientcert; };). Be sure to set up the client to use the private key. mIRC does this with the SSL options, but other clients (such as XChat) are more difficult to set up. When opering, you can put anything you want for the password (Ex: /oper YourLogin *). |
