DALnet's IRCd - Bahamut
|
Bahamut is a UNIX-based Internet Relay Chat Daemon (IRCd) designed for DALnet, one of the major IRC networks in the world. Bahamut replaced DALnet's old ircd, DreamForge at some point in the early 2000's. Bahamut is currently maintained and developed by the DALnet Coding Team, with many others contributing through the dalnet-src@dal.net mailing list. To subscribe to dalnet-src@ (Discussion of DALnet ircd source code) mailing list, please go to http://lists.dal.net/mailman/listinfo/dalnet-src. Bahamut 2.x supports many newer IRCd features such as SSL encryption, IPv6, and webirc host correction support. It is extremely stable, serving as the production IRCd for DALnet, which is currently one of the 10 largest IRC networks by simultaneous user count. Although bahamut lacks many of the vanity features of some newer IRCd's, it is extremely simple to set up, modular, and compatible with several open source irc services packages and bopm. You can download the latest release of the IRCd below. The latest 2.1.x version is at the top, and the legacy 1.8.9 version is also linked below.
