mIRCd

An IRCd written in mIRC Scripting Language (mSL) and more or less based on ircu based IRCds.

This is not meant to be used as a proper IRCd since there's far better alternatives for that. (Like actual IRCds.)

I mainly did this for my own personal amusement/as a pet project.

Requirements:

• At least mIRC v7.66 (Rev.2)

Limitations:

• This could be used by nefarious actors to phish NickServ/Oper passwords, so end users should be wary of this
• No SSL/TLS support (/socklisten doesn't support these)
• Not IRCv3 compliant (though I personally don't consider this to be a bad thing as IRC conversation is supposed to be ephemeral)
• Sockets have a max size they can send data (Interestingly, this limitation didn't exist in mIRC 6.35 ¬_¬)¹
• Some commands are missing: anything related to server linking such as ACCOUNT, BURST, JUPE, etc.

Please consult readme.txt on how to get it running. -Jigsy

Things I would at least like to try to do some day:

• Giving the entire script a line-by-line once over to check for bugs.
• Server linking. Though given the nature of this, it's going to require me to rescript the entire IRCd from scratch. (Rev.3) (Ongoing...)

Screenshots (Rev.2)

Screenshots (Rev.3 - WIP²)

¹ Though this could be an issue related to Windows 8.1. (I need to check on an XP VM.)

² Assuming I don't burn out and actually get this completed.

mircd's Issues

Few suggestions

Hello Jigsy, first of all let me tell you that i appreciate your time spent on this amazing project. We love this mircd. Just downloaded and setup. i will check all commands and revert back with any issues/errors/feedback.

Just a few suggestions if you want to take into consideration at some point.

1. Account registration/login system and auto hostname based on account. This one until you provide us with the services 😀
2. What do you think about implementing an Always-on client?(like znc). Registered accounts can opt in/out. When a client disconnects from irc the session will not get destroyed giving the client the option to reattach later on the same session. So basically it works like a znc, the nickname/session remains 24 on irc and the user has the option to reattach at anytime.
   The user can reattched with /server servername port username:password
