Linux IRC Server Gets Trojan, Press Harps On Linux Security

Jun 24

Posted by admin in Chat, IRC, Internet, Linux, Server | No Comments

Recently, the Linux version of UnrealIRCd was discovered to have had a Trojan worm its way into the source code. Even more embarrassing for the developers of Unreal is that the Trojan’s been holding open the backdoor in the source code since November of 2009– not very recently. And, of course, bloggers and press in general are taking the opportunity of another breach in Linux security to point out doomsday devices that don’t really exist.

I have one VPS with DMEhosting for about almost a half year already. Recently, I just got an announcement that they allow IRC related stuffs in their unmanaged VPS. That’s great!

They have very cheap unmanaged linux vps plan which I never found any before.  They named their unmanaged VPS to Budget VPS now. Here is the cheapest plan:

  • Disk Space: 20GB
  • Memory: 256MB
  • Burst Memory: 386MB
  • Bandwidth: 700GB
  • Virtualization: OpenVZ
  • IP Address(es): 1

Just $5.95/month

The setup is instant activation after the invoice is paid. You might also find they have 50% promotion in webhostingtalk. Nowadays, I use this budget VPS for backup and a tiny IRC node to my friend’s network.

Aug 31

Posted by khemara in Chat, IRC, Internet | No Comments

You might already know mibbit which I ever mentioned it before.  Today, I just found one opensource webirc client named qwebirc.

Here are its feature I extracted from its official website:

  • AJAX IRC client.
  • Multiple channels and queries.
  • Nick list menus.
  • Scalability: used by QuakeNet: the world’s largest IRC network.
  • Cross platform (pure Python), so works under Linux, FreeBSD, Windows, and probably more platforms.
  • Embedded webserver, so very little configuration.
  • SSL support.
  • Supports WEBIRC style hostname setting with asynchronous DNS.
  • Optional dedicated message and/or notice windows.
  • Irssi style /msg, query, channel and nickname autocompletion (sorted correctly by last used/spoke order).
  • Completely open source (GPLv2).
  • Ability to offer a direct connection, no third party.
  • Can pass your hostname through directly to the IRC server.
  • Keyboard shortcuts for window selection (alt+a, alt+1..0).
  • Irssi style global input history.
  • Mouse wheel on tabs.
  • UTF-8 support.
  • Clickable channels, links and authnames.
  • mIRC colour/underline/bold support.
  • Minimalistic design with a decent colour scheme.
  • Direct integration into QuakeNet’s secure authing system.
  • No profit motive, so no logging, link hijacking, advertising or data mining whatsoever.
  • Irssi style multiple highlight levels.
  • Wizard to allow users to easily embed the client into their own websites.
It releases under GPLv2.

Aug 31

Posted by khemara in IRC, Internet | No Comments

Finally, Inspire IRCD release their official version 1.2.

A few years in the making, months in the testing, thousands of lines of code in the writing, we’re finally done. 1.2.0 is ready for every day usage. A grand total of 0 issues have been reported since rc5, so we are confident that things should have settled down now, though we will remain ready to rectify any problems that arise.

1.2 aims at following on from the surge in popularity following our stable 1.1 series. A number of new features have been introduced, borrowing on ideas from many other parts of the IRC community, as well as introducing a few of our own. Some performance enhancements and many architectural improvements have also been made.

1.2.0 is now recommended for usage. Networks that do not require any of the new features are still free to run 1.1, which is still supported.
