/* * Configuration file for psyBNC, created by menuconf */ /* Encryption * Support Encryption - This encrypts all your passwords, * and enables support for channel encryption, relay * encryption, etc. It is recommended to leave this enabled. */ #define CRYPT /* Encryption Type * There are no other encryption types offered other than * blowfish. It is also used in OpenBSD password-hashing * method (crypt $2, i.e. bcrypt), but a derived * algorithm. */ #define BLOWFISH /* Allow Translation * This lets you type in English (or whatever your * language is) and have the text in the channel appear * in a different language. You will have to consult the * README for more information. */ #define TRANSLATE /* Allow internal network * This lets you use the internal IRCd that psyBNC has. * Think of it as a big partyline where you can set * modes/bans/topic/etc. */ #define INTNET /* Allow traffic logging * This enables support for logging channels when you are * not around. It can be handy, but it can also eat up your * host machine's disk space VERY fast So be careful if * you enable this. * * Note: You can leave support for it enabled here, then * disable it after it is compiled by simply turning it off. */ #define TRAFFICLOG /* Allow linkage of bouncers * If you want your BNC to link to others, or for others to * link to yours, enable this. */ #define LINKAGE /* Allow the DCC File-Functions * DCC or Direct Client Connect, allows users to directly * connect to each other without going through an intermediary * such as an IRCd or a BNC. This option allows users to send * and receive files over DCC. */ #define DCCFILES /* Pipe DCC Chats * DCC or Direct Client Connect, allows users to directly * connect to each other without going through an intermediary * such as an IRCd or a BNC. This option allows users to * communicate with each other via DCC. */ #define DCCCHAT /* Allow to add more users * Enabling this option allows your bouncer to have other users * using your bouncer, other than yourself. * Disabling this feature will also remove psyBNC's bouncer * administration capabilities. To disable, replace MULTIUSER * with SINGLEUSER. */ #define MULTIUSER /* Number of max. Users * Defines how many users are allowed to connect to the BNC. * Setting this value to 0 allows infinite amount of users to * connect to the BNC. */ #define MAXUSER 0 /* Number of max. Connections per User * Defines the maximum amount of connections each user are * allowed to have. For each additional user, they will need * at least 2 (incoming/outgoing) connections per network. * More connections will be required for each and every active * DCC chat/send. It is suggested to leave it at 25. */ #define MAXCONN 0 /* Allow the usage of scripts * Defines whether or not psyBNC allows scripts to be executed * by users. Whilst it can be handy for certain tasks, such as * automating user creation. It can also inadvertedly be used * to run malicious scripts. If you are going to enable this * setting, it would be wiser to run psyBNC in an unprivileged * and in resource constrained host machine's environment. */ #define SCRIPTING /* Support oIdentd * Defines on whether or not to offer ident changing. On * certain networks like IRCNet, identd needs to be enabled, * or you will not be allowed to connect to their network. On * other networks, the lack of identd support simply means your * username will be prefixed with ~. */ #define OIDENTD /* Allow multiple IRC connections per user * This allows users to connect to more than one network with * the same IRC client. It is recommended to leave this on if * or your users wants to participate in multiple IRC networks. */ #define NETWORK /* Allow proxy usage * If you want to further anonymise your connection by bouncing * from your IRC client to BNC, and from BNC to a proxy which * is then finally connected to your IRC network of choice. * You can enable this. However, most IRC servers check for * open proxies such as HOPM and ACOPM, this will not work in * many cases. */ // #define PROXYS /* Allow anonymous bouncer usage * Defines whether or not to allow non-logged in users, i.e. * anonymous users to connect to your bouncer and use freely. * Not recommended if you do not want the entire world to use * your psyBNC freely. */ // #define ANONYMOUS /* No permanent IRC connections * If this option is enabled, psyBNC will disconnect you from * IRC when you disconnect from the BNC. If disabled, you * will always remain connected to IRC unless you for psyBNC * to quit. */ // #define DYNAMIC /* The logging level * Defines the logging level for psyBNC to output into logs. * 0 = Errors * 1 = Errors and warnings * 2 = Errors only */ #define LOGLEVEL 0 /* Use the 2.1.1 compatible partyline * If you are going to be linking to old psyBNC's. Enabling * this option might be a good idea. However, if you are * the only psyBNC, or if all the other psyBNC are you * going to link are running 2.2.1. It is best to disable * this option. */ // #define PARTYCHANNEL /* Version reply * Defines the response when others requests a CTCP VERSION * from you. Note, when you are connected to the BNC, * psyBNC will be transparent, and all CTCP requests will be * handled automatically by your IRC Client. When you are * not connected to your BNC, psyBNC will only answer the * string as defined below. Defaults are also shown if * it is not defined. */ // #define CTCPVERSION "psyBNC 2.4-BETA1 by the most psychoid" /* SSL-Security */ #define SSLSEC 0 /* Insure */ #define INSURE

$ make
After running $make command , if you get this message….
System: OpenBSD DNS Library (c-ares): Not Available
Your system does not appear to have the c-ares liberary installed. This library is required for psyBNC to do DNS lookups (as of version 2.4)
Then you need to add this package prior to run $ make command.
doas pkg_add libcares
After adding the package now you can run the below commands.
$ make
Running psyBNC
$ ./psybnc
Now open your preferred irc client and write:
/server host:port password
For example, assuming these are your parameters:
Host/IP : 82.211.13.24 Port : 31337 Pass : abcdef
you must type:
/server 82.211.13.24:31337 abcdef
It is possible then you may wish to see rc.d to add psybnc to system startup.
