ctrlproxy — a modular IRC proxy with multi-server support
ctrlproxy
[-d file] [-l file] [-D] [--init] [-r file] [-v]
ctrlproxy is a modular IRC proxy. It connects to a number of IRC servers and then passes data it receives on to the modules that have been loaded into it. Current modules are client_simple (for proxy support) and log (for irssi-style log file generation).
By default, ctrlproxy listens for client connections on port 6668 and any ports after that one, depending on the number of servers it is connected to.
ctrlproxy recognizes the following command-line options
Add incoming client on stdin/stdout, connected to the specified network. This can be used for inetd-like communication and testing.
Dump IRC traffic to specified file. Only useful for debugging purposes.
Go to the background after the program has been started (daemon mode).
Read configuration files from the specified directory DIR
instead of from .ctrlproxy
in the users' homedirectory.
Create a new configuration file.
