too bad to route traffic). Note that on Undernet all newly linked servers
are linked as leafs during their test phase, and should specify 'n' here.
-Do you want support for the old I:*:ONE:*:: construct
-USEONE
- Server versions prior to ircu2.10.05 used to use the string "ONE"
- as password in an I: line to indicate that only one connection was
- allowed for any given IP number that matched that I: line.
- This method only counted the *local* connections though.
- As of ircu2.10.05 you can specifiy a single(!) digit as password
- which then will allow that many connections from the same IP number.
- However, now the IP numbers of ALL clients are counted, also those
- that are connected to other servers.
- If you do not use the depricated "ONE" password in your ircd.conf,
- specify 'n' here. Note that if you you DO use the "ONE" password
- and you specify 'n' here, then you should change all occurances of
- "ONE" to "1" (this is the recommended procedure).
- If you are lazy and you don't want to change the "ONE" passwords
- into a "1", then specify 'y' here.

Send a short message instead of the MOTD to connecting clients
NODEFAULTMOTD
Every time a client connects to your server, the full Message Of
log file where the logs of JUPEs will be stored; it is usually called
"jupe.log". Note that you should not include quotes here.
+Do you want to log OPMODEs and CLEARMODEs to a separate file
+CONFIG_LOG_OPMODES
+ Specify 'y' here if you want to log OPMODEs and CLEARMODEs to a local
+ file.
+
+Give the path and(or) filename of this log file
+OPATH
+ OPATH is the filename, relative to DPATH, or the full path, of the
+ log file where the logs of OPMODEs and CLEARMODEs will be stored; it
+ is usually called "opmode.log". Note that you should not include
+ quote here.

Do you want to log connecting users to a separate file
CONFIG_LOG_USERS
Specify 'y' here if you want to log who is connecting to your server.
Well if you got this far and still need help, then I think you should
go back and specify 'n' at the question "Do you want to use syslog".
-Use m4 as a preprocessor on CPATH
-M4_PREPROC
- If you use m4 macro's in your "ircd.conf" file, then you need to specify 'y',
- which will enable m4 preprocessing of the "ircd.conf" file.
- If you are unsure specify 'n'. Note using m4 macros has often lead to
- problems (passwords or server names that match a macro name for instance),
- while the benefits of using m4 are highly doubtful. Unless you are
- already a m4 wizard and insist on using it I recommend to specify 'n' here.

-Use crypted passwords for N: lines
-CRYPT_LINK_PASSWORD
- In order to allow other servers to connect to you, you need to specify
- two configuration lines in the "ircd.conf" configuration file (CPATH).
- Each of these lines contains a password; the C: line is used for connecting
- to a remote server and contains the password that is sent to the remote
- server for authentication, thus this password must be in plain text.
- The other is the N: line and contains the password that the remote server
- is sending to you. For security reasons it is advised to store this
- password in DES encrypted form. If you specify 'y' here, you will be
- allowed to use the DES encrypted password in the password field of the
- N: line, see doc/example.conf for more details. Note that you should
- use *different* passwords in the C: and N: lines respectively for obvious
- reasons.

Use crypted passwords for operators
CRYPT_OPER_PASSWORD
In order to allow certain users to become IRC OPERators, they must
hacking. Find an experienced admin with the same Operating System and
ask him what the maximum is and how to achieve it.
-Default client listen port
-PORTNUM
- This is the default listen port. You can specify more listen ports
- in the "ircd.conf" file with 'P: lines'; see doc/example.conf for more
- details on P: lines. Note that /stats p currently only shows P: lines,
- which might be a reason for you to use a less often used value here.
- Note that there is actually no difference between client and server
- listen ports, but it is good practice to separate them for statistical
- purpose (bandwidth usage statistics).

Nickname history length
NICKNAMEHISTORYLENGTH
This value specifies the length of the nick name history list, which
Use new MODE implementation
CONFIG_NEW_MODE
This enables a new implementation of m_mode. THIS IS AN EXPERIMENTAL

+Use new oper commands (JUPE, CLEARMODE, OPMODE, GLINE)
+CONFIG_OPERCMDS
+ Several new oper-only commands were added to the server source
