*** IMPORTANT: ***
mkpasswd has been renamed to ircd-hybrid-mkpasswd to avoid conflicts with
other packages.

	mkpasswd -> ircd-hybrid-mkpasswd

Please read the INSTALL file for more information.

You should now copy
- /usr/local/etc/ircd-hybrid/reference.ircd.conf to
  /usr/local/etc/ircd-hybrid/ircd.conf
- /usr/local/etc/ircd-hybrid/reference.modules.conf to
  /usr/local/etc/ircd-hybrid/modules.conf
and then edit to suit your needs. ircd-hybrid will not start without
/usr/local/etc/ircd-hybrid/ircd.conf

Don't forget to add

ircd_hybrid_enable="YES"

into your /etc/rc.conf.  You may then start the server by running:

	/usr/local/etc/rc.d/ircd-hybrid start

Commit #3/4 to enforce caps, no period.

FWIW, checkout of these things took 5+hrs, staying on the local
.freebsd.org net w/o hitting the 'net at all.

Oops.  /dev/null, not /dev/nul.  I actually fixed this before committing but forgot to hit the "save" button...

Correct small typo in patch. "BSDnet", not "BSDet"... ;)

* Added a nice little "ircd.sh" file for etc/rc.d. * "example.conf.trillian", a much more detailed and informative (with   comments!) is now also installed. * Fixed Makefile to install these new files, plus removed a bogus comment   that I had accidentally left in there. * Updated PLIST with the new files.

Upgrade to ircd-hybrid-5.2p1. * Change DISTNAME in Makefile, and add PKGNAME to reflect the convention   that "5.2p1" is to be expressed as "5.2.1" in package names. * Changed MD5. * Re-generated patches so that they patch cleanly against the new version.
