Preserving settings between restarts
In the past, all settings that you changed dynamically (settings that are not in the configuration file) were lost after a server restart. However, nowadays with UnrealIRCd 5 this is less of an issue:
 * Channel settings are normally lost. However, if you set the channel mode  (permanent), then all modes, topic, bans, etc. are preserved. The channel settings of all +P channels are written every few minutes to a database file (data/channel.db) and restored when the server boots.
 * KLINEs, GLINEs, SPAMFILTERs are all stored in a database (data/tkl.db) and are preserved.
