Description-en: fast, scalable irc server
Charybdis is a highly scalable IRC server which presently implements
the IRCv3.1 client protocol with some additional components of
IRCv3.2. Development of charybdis began in 2005 as a proposed
replacement to freenode’s hyperion ircd, designed for use by any
network, with roots in ircd-ratbox and ircu. Over time, charybdis has
developed, tested and demonstrated many of the features commonly seen
in modern IRC networks.
.
Interesting features that Charybdis has include:
.
* SASL support — charybdis was the first IRC server to implement SASL
support, resulting in the IRCv3 SASL standards.
* DNS blocklist support
* Augmented banlist criteria through “extbans”
* Channel forwarding (channel mode +f)
* Optional hostname/IP cloaking (through modules, either usermode +h or
+x)
* Colorcode stripping (channel mode +c)
* CALLERID (user mode +g) with automatic accept when you send a PM
* TLS encrypted client and server connections
* Multi-process sandbox architecture for enhanced security, scalability
and robustness
* Easy to understand configuration
* A complete user and operator’s manual
.
Many of the largest networks in the world use charybdis-based IRC
servers, including freenode, EsperNet, DarkMyst and others, because
of it’s proven scalability, security and robustness track records
