(redirected from Openbsd.Psybnc)
Installation
First, install basic dependencies:
# pkg_add libcares gcc # ln -s /usr/local/bin/egcc /usr/local/bin/gcc
Set up a new user to privsep.
$ doas useradd -m -g=uid -c "psybnc" -d /home/psybnc -s /bin/ksh psybnc $ doas su psybnc
Install c-ares then build psybnc:
$ cd $ ftp http://psybnc.org/download/psyBNC-2.4.3.tar.gz $ tar zxf psyBNC-2.4.3.tar.gz $ rm psyBNC-2.4.3.tar.gz $ cd psybnc $ make
Inside psybnc.conf:
PSYBNC.SYSTEM.PORT1=6667 PSYBNC.SYSTEM.HOST1=* PSYBNC.SYSTEM.PORT2=6697 PSYBNC.SYSTEM.HOST2=S=* PSYBNC.HOSTALLOWS.ENTRY0=*;*
Running
$ ./psybnc
See rcd? to add psybnc to system startup.
Usage
When interacting with psybnc
NICK nickname USER nickname nickname bnc.example.com :nickname
all fields must be filled in -- it checks ident for login
To change nicks on a different network: /nick #ircnow~jrmu
I could not figure out how to send a raw command to a specific network, so I just made ircnow the main network
to send a privmsg to a specific network
/query #network~nickname hello, world! /query #ircnow~Nickserv identify password
To add a network:
/quote addnetwork network
For no SSL:
/quote addserver network~irc.example.com :6667
For SSL:
/quote addserver network~S=irc.example.com :6697
Be careful, if it defaults to IPv4 and you attempt to connect IPv6, psybnc crashes each and every time you load it
