/* * doc/reference.conf - ircd-darenet Reference configuration file. * * Copyright (C) 2010 DareNET Development Team * * The configuration format consists of various blocks, each containing * name-value pairs, tags and/or string data. It is designed to be * easily readable by both human and ircd. * * A block consists of a block name, an opening '{' brace, statements, a * closing '}' brace, and a ';' semicolon. A statement consists of a name * possibly followed by an '=' equals sign and a value, ending with a * semicolon. All strings are surrounded by '"' double quotes. * * A sample block: * * blockname { * name = value; * name = "string"; * name = 123; * tag; * }; * * All elements of the configuration are separated by whitespace, and can * be packed on one line, or broken up over several lines. Whitespace is * defined as space, tab or carriage return/linefeed. * * Three forms of comments are allowed: * - C style multi-line * - C++ style single-line * - Shell style single-line * * IMPORTANT NOTES: * * When the configuration file is parsed, blocks are used in reverse order * than how they are listed here. This means you should start multiple * block definitions with the "fall through", and end with the most * detailed. * * class {} blocks MUST be specified before anything that uses them. That * means they must be defined before client {}, connect {} and operator {}. * * Times/durations are written as: * - a number in seconds (e.g., 60) * - 1 hours 30 minutes 10 seconds * - an arithmetic expression (e.g., 1*60+20) * * Valid units of time: * decades, years, months, weeks, days, hours, minutes, seconds * * Valid units of size: * tbytes, gbytes, mbytes, kbytes, bytes * * All sizes and times should be specified as plural. */ ############################################################################## # General [REQUIRED] # # The General block defines information about the server itself. # It is required for the server to start. # # Old conf format equivalents # M:name:vhost:description::numeric general { /* name: the name of our server. */ name = "test.area.zone.darenet.org"; /* description: the description of our server. */ description = "ircd-darenet test server"; /* numeric: the unqiue server numeric for our server.
