Client scripts for ircd-ratbox challenge

This directory contains a number of client scripts to help automate opering using ircd-ratbox challenge.

Later versions of these scripts may exist in our svn repository, you can check by pointing a web browser or svn client at http://svn.ratbox.org/svnroot/respond/trunk/client-scripts/

X-Chat

challenge-xchat.pl is the xchat script, written by Lee Hardy (anfl@EFNet).

There are configuration options set at the top of the script that should be edited before use.

To use this script, simply place it in your home xchat2 directory, (normally ~/.xchat2/) where it will load automatically when xchat starts, or to load it manually, type:
/load /path/to/challenge-xchat.pl

The script allows you to do:
/challenge <opername> [keyphrase]

[keyphrase] is optional and should be used if your private key has one.

irssi

challenge-irssi.pl is the irssi script, written by James Seward (JamesOff@efnet), based on Andreas Broeckings script (zap@efnet).

Configuration is done through irssi itself:
/set ro_challenge_respond <path to binary>
/set ro_challenge_keyfile <path to private key file>

To use this script, place it in ~/.irssi/scripts, and if you want it to load automatically when irssi starts:
ln -s ~/.irssi/scripts/challenge-irssi.pl ~/.irssi/scripts/autorun/.
or to load it manually, type:
/script load challenge-irssi.pl

The script allows you to do:
/challenge <opername> [keyphrase]

[keyphrase] is optional and should be used if your private key has one.

epic

challenge-epic4.irc and challenge-epic5.irc are the epic scripts, written by David B. Kratter (BlackJac@efnet).

The epic5 configuration is done through epic itself:
/set challenge_bin <path to binary>
/set challenge_key <path to private key file>
If your keyphrase has a password:
/set challenge_pass 1

In the epic4 script, there are configuration options set at the top of the script that should be edited before use.

To use this script, add:
load /path/to/challenge-epicN.irc
to ~/.epicrc, where it will load automatically when epic starts, or to load it manually type:
/load /path/to/challenge-epicN.irc

The script allows you to do:
/challenge <opername>

You will be prompted for a keyphrase if the script is configured as needing to request one.
