Iso,
But *BOTH* bans were above my level, and X said it removed 1 ban matching
the hostmask I gave.  It didn't remove either, therefore shouldnt have said
it removed one.

The bans were placed with an access higher than yours.  You then tried
to remove it and couldn't, but X let you unset the ban from the channel
(since you could /mode #chan -b .), this is a "Feature", for
instance you might want to free up some banlist entries so you can set
some more bans.  Then when the user rejoined it set the bans again
(since they were still in X -- you didn't have access to remove them).

Or am I missing something?

You will remember something that you should not have forgotten.




RE: [Coder-Com] FW: X's unban... is that a bug?

2002-04-10 Thread Empus

But X did *NOT* notify me that I could not remove the ban in X.  It said it
removed the ban, when in actual fact, it did not.
X should not notify a user that a ban is removed, unless that ban is able to
be, and is, removed.  And if it is removing the channel ban, rather than the
one in X's db banlist, it should specify, so the user knows to differentiate
between the two different types.

this has not changed since the old X... you have enough access to remove the
ban on the channel but not enough access to remove the ban in X, result, X
removes the channel, but notify's you that you cannot remove the ban in X.

stoney,

I'm all in favour of this idea.  I think it would be very helpful.  I'm not
a newbie, but I use the search command when I help someone find a channel
they're looking for, if I am unable to, or anyone else, is unable to help
them in the current channel.

Subject: [Coder-Com] X search feature


Hi,
Is it possible to add parameters to the /msg x search  feature? As it
is now, X will not output more than 10 hits. This limit makes the feature
self defeating in a way because newbies are the most likely ones to use the
channel search. I tried  /msg x search help, and also search undernet, as a
newbie is likely to do, and the 10 hit limit yielded few "good" hits. Could
we add something like /msg x search blah 3 to find channels matching blah
with at least 3 users on the channels? That would be a good way to get
around the output limit. Or perhaps only return channels with more then 2
people on it (X+3 users).

[Coder-Com] X bug or feature?

2002-04-16 Thread Empus

Scenario:

X is parted from a channel (/msg x part )
A user joins that channel, who matches X's banlist for the channel
X rejoins the channel (/msg x join )
nothing happens.  the user is still there.

Does X not ban these users when it rejoins (ie. reads the channel banlist),
on purpose? Is this a feature? If so, what is the reasoning behind it?  I
would like to see X read it's banlist, and act accordingly, if there are
users in the channel when it rejoins, who match bans in the banlist.

Only just noticed it, trying to figure out, if it is a *feature* or a *bug*,
as I was aparrantly confused over this feature/bug issue the last time I
posted something to do with X here. *laugh*

 Do we have anyone out there able and interested to introduce IPv6 to
gnuworld?

I understand it to be a big^H^H^Hhorrible task, but it would be really good
to make a start.  Users ask about it quite often and we're falling behind
in this area.

Eventually, we'll be denying access to the people we want to serve.

I've a huge fan of all things electronic security (working in this space
for a living) but personally, I see little benefit in SSL for IRC,
because of the very architecture model.

Unless you're speaking with another client on the same server, or all
people in a channel you're on is on the same server, you'd end up with a
false sense of security.

Without guaranteeing that ALL client<->server connections are encrypted,
and any server<->server connections in between are as well, you could never
be sure that the end to end path is encrypted and thus MIM attacks are
mitigated.

So without that scenario, wouldn't the client be fooled into a false sense
of security?

Re: [Coder-com] Greetings

2012-10-29 Thread Empus
I think you're missing my point.

Let's say you're ClientA, connected over SSL to ServerA.

I'm ClientB, connected insecurely (ie. no SSL) to ServerB.

ServerA is connected to ServerB, unencrypted.

You established a connection with your server over SSL, so you think your
session is secure, and that chat conversations will be protected from man
in the middle attacks because of encryption.

However, if you chat with me, the ServerA<->ServerB connection, and also
the ServerB<->ClientB side of the connection, is all insecure.  You think
your SSL provides security on our conversation, but in reality, it
wouldn't.  It only protects the ClientA<->ServerA side of things.  One
could argue that some security is better than none, but I think it's a
dangerous illusion of sorts.

Again, these are just my thoughts but it's something I've considered before
and I think it's a valid reason to be wary of IRC over SSL.

Hi all,

The gnu-v6 gnuworld branch has now been merged into master.  This will be
the primary moving forward following the significant round of enhancements
in the last year.

New branches may be used for other large developments, but outside of that
we will use master and eventually remove gnu-v6

[Coder-Com] initdb failed.

2002-04-07 Thread Empus \(Mike\)

Upon installing and configuring PostgreSQL completely fine - no errors, I go
to run initdb... and:

gnuworld@userservice:/usr/local/pgsql/bin$ ./initdb -D /usr/local/pgsql/data
The files belonging to this database system will be owned by user
"gnuworld".
This user must also own the server process.

initdb failed.

Does anyone know why is this occurring, how can it be fixed?  tcl8.3,
PostgreSQL 7.2, FreeBSD-4.5, gmake-3.79.1

I'm aware this isnt a PostgreSQL mailing list, but the postgresql.org lists
are not responding, (seem quite inactive), and as this is a requirement to
setup gnuworld, I figured someone here may have an idea about this.

Postgres is trying to use the "semget" syscall.  This is a "System V
Shared Memory" system call from memory.  This isn't compiled into your
kernel.  Time for a recompile.
