Tip of the day: UnrealIRCd 6 uses GeoIP by default. It is shown in WHOIS but also available as country in mask items,

for example it can be used in the TLD Block to serve a Spanish MOTD to people in Spanish speaking countries.

2) Configuration file changes
There have also been changes in various configuration blocks and settings. Don't worry, UnrealIRCd can convert your existing 3.2.x configuration files to the UnrealIRCd 4 format:

  1. Copy your 3.2.x unrealircd.conf (and related files, if any) to your conf directory (Never heard of the conf/ directory? It's new in UnrealIRCd 4, read UnrealIRCd files and directories)
  2. Then to upgrade your configuration files:
    1. On *NIX run ./unrealircd upgrade-conf
    2. On Windows just launch UnrealIRCd and after you see the list of configuration errors click OK and in next screen you will be asked if you want your configuration files to be upgraded.
  3. Then boot UnrealIRCd.
