Security-group block

Security groups are introduced in UnrealIRCd 5.0.8. There two most important groups that exist by default are: known-users (user is identified to services or has high enough reputation) and unknown-users (all other users).

This way you can ban all users that are "not known" by setting.

There are also two more groups that exist by default:
 * tls-users: all users who are using SSL/TLS
 * tls-and-known-users: all users using SSL/TLS, plus all users that are identified to Services or have a high enough reputation.

Syntax
security-group { identified ; webirc ; reputation-score ; }

identified: if set to yes, then if the user is identified to Services then it is considered a match. webirc: if set to yes, then if the user comes from a WEBIRC gateway then it is considered a match. reputation-score: if set, then if the user has a reputation score of this value or higher, it is considered a match.

NOTE: All items in the group have like an OR expression: identified OR webirc OR reputation-score. If any of these items are true then the user matches the security group.

Example and changing the known-users group
The default security group known-users has the following settings: security-group known-users { identified yes; webirc no; reputation-score 24; } If you have no security-group known-users { } in your configuration file then these are the defaults. If you want to change the settings, then add the block to your config and modify it.

The magic unknown-users security-group
The unknown-users security group is a special group matching users that are NOT matched by the known-users group. In other words:  is the same as   (the exclamation mark prefix meaning 'NOT').
