| Summary | 0003910: Feature Request: Remote MOTD and Rules file | ||||
| Description | Please add the following feature request to the .9 to-do list. I would like to have the option to use remote MOTD and Rules files settable at the tld block and at set:: block for the default MOTD/Rules files. The same for shortmotd, opermotd and botmotd. tld { motd "https://user:[email protected]/path/motd-en.motd"; rules "https://user:[email protected]/path/rules-en.motd"; }; Using libcurl it should be no problem getting them from an other source, just the same way as remote includes. Also (I think it´s already mentioned anywhere) remote includes should use the latest used config file at rehash if the source server is not avaiable for some reason to allow a running ircd. Reason: This could save administrators of larger networks a lot of time, because updating each servers motd one by one can be a pain in the ass. | ||||

See 0001507... ignore the 3.3* bit, it's ok if it's done for 3.2*, but you need to find someone to do it, and it's not a 1 2 3 job (due to the asynchronous nature) :P. As for: "Also (I think it´s already mentioned anywhere) remote includes should use the latest used config file at rehash if the source server is not avaiable for some reason to allow a running ircd." Yeah I've implemented this in CVS / will be in 3.2.9. It's indeed something quite important / useful.. without it, remote includes can easily prevent a whole server start which sucks bigtime.. on any network... (oh and no I don't blame you for not searching the bugs, especially since it was on page 2 :P) |
