3 ## Comments are marked like this. The rest of the file is INI-style. The
4 ## comments should tell you enough about what all settings mean.

7 [settings]
8
9 ## RunMode:
10 ##
11 ## Inetd -- Run from inetd (default)
12 ## Daemon -- Run as a stand-alone daemon, serving all users from one process.
13 ## This saves memory if there are more users, the downside is that when one
14 ## user hits a crash-bug, all other users will also lose their connection.
15 ## ForkDaemon -- Run as a stand-alone daemon, but keep all clients in separate
16 ## child processes. This should be pretty safe and reliable to use instead
17 ## of inetd mode.
18 ##
19 RunMode = Daemon
20
21 ## User:
22 ##
23 ## If BitlBee is started by root as a daemon, it can drop root privileges,
24 ## and change to the specified user.
25 ##
26 # User = bitlbee
27
28 ## DaemonPort/DaemonInterface:
29 ##
30 ## For daemon mode, you can specify on what interface and port the daemon
31 ## should be listening for connections.
32 ##
33 DaemonInterface = 127.0.0.1
34 # DaemonPort = 6667
35
36 ## ClientInterface:
37 ##
38 ## If for any reason, you want BitlBee to use a specific address/interface
39 ## for outgoing traffic (IM connections, HTTP(S), etc.), set it here.
40 ##
41 # ClientInterface = 0.0.0.0
42
43 ## AuthMode
44 ##
45 ## Open -- Accept connections from anyone, use NickServ for user authentication.
46 ## (default)
47 ## Closed -- Require authorization (using the PASS command during login) before
48 ## allowing the user to connect at all.
49 ## Registered -- Only allow registered users to use this server; this disables
50 ## the register- and the account command until the user identifies itself.
51 ##
52 # AuthMode = Open
53
54 ## AuthPassword
55 ##
56 ## Password the user should enter when logging into a closed BitlBee server.
57 ## You can also have a BitlBee-style MD5 hash here. Format: "md5:", followed
58 ## by a hash as generated by "bitlbee -x hash <password>".
59 ##
60 # AuthPassword = ItllBeBitlBee ## Heh.. Our slogan. ;-)
61 ## or
62 # AuthPassword = md5:gzkK0Ox/1xh+1XTsQjXxBJ571Vgl
63
64 ## OperPassword
65 ##
66 ## Password that unlocks access to special operator commands.
67 ##
68 # OperPassword = ChangeMe!
69 ## or
70 # OperPassword = md5:I0mnZbn1t4R731zzRdDN2/pK7lRX
71
72 ## HostName
73 ##
74 ## Normally, BitlBee gets a hostname using getsockname(). If you have a nicer
75 ## alias for your BitlBee daemon, you can set it here and BitlBee will identify
76 ## itself with that name instead.
77 ##
78 # HostName = localhost
79
80 ## MotdFile
81 ##
82 ## Specify an alternative MOTD (Message Of The Day) file. Default value depends
83 ## on the --etcdir argument to configure.
84 ##
85 # MotdFile = /etc/bitlbee/motd.txt
86
87 ## ConfigDir
88 ##
89 ## Specify an alternative directory to store all the per-user configuration
90 ## files. (.nicks/.accounts)
91 ##
92 # ConfigDir = /var/lib/bitlbee
93
94 ## Ping settings
95 ##
96 ## BitlBee can send PING requests to the client to check whether it's still
97 ## alive. This is not very useful on local servers, but it does make sense
98 ## when most clients connect to the server over a real network interface.
99 ## (Public servers) Pinging the client will make sure lost clients are
100 ## detected and cleaned up sooner.
101 ##
102 ## PING requests are sent every PingInterval seconds. If no PONG reply has
103 ## been received for PingTimeOut seconds, BitlBee aborts the connection.
104 ##
105 ## To disable the pinging, set at least one of these to 0.
106 ##
107 # PingInterval = 180
108 # PingTimeOut = 300
109
110 ## Using proxy servers for outgoing connections
111 ##
112 ## If you're running BitlBee on a host which is behind a restrictive firewall
113 ## and a proxy server, you can tell BitlBee to use that proxy server here.
114 ## The setting has to be a URL, formatted like one of these examples:
115 ##
116 ## (Obviously, the username and password are optional)
117 ##
118 # Proxy = http://john:doe@proxy.localnet.com:8080
119 # Proxy = socks4://socksproxy.localnet.com
120 # Proxy = socks5://socksproxy.localnet.com
121
122 ## Protocols offered by bitlbee
123 ##
124 ## As recompiling may be quite unpractical for some people, this option
125 ## allows to remove the support of protocol, even if compiled in. If
126 ## nothing is given, there are no restrictions.
127 ##
128 # Protocols = jabber yahoo
129
130 ## Trusted CAs
131 ##
132 ## Path to a file containing a list of trusted certificate authorities used in
133 ## the verification of server certificates.
134 ##
135 ## Uncomment this and make sure the file actually exists and contains all
136 ## certificate authorities you're willing to accept (default value should
137 ## work on at least Debian/Ubuntu systems with the "ca-certificates" package
138 ## installed). As long as the line is commented out, SSL certificate
139 ## verification is completely disabled.
140 ##
141 ## The location of this file may be different on other distros/OSes. For
142 ## example, try /etc/ssl/ca-bundle.pem on OpenSUSE.
143 ##
144 # CAfile = /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt
145
146 [defaults]
147
148 ## Here you can override the defaults for some per-user settings. Users are
149 ## still able to override your defaults, so this is not a way to restrict
150 ## your users...
151
152 ## To enable private mode by default, for example:
153
154 ## private = 1
