When ngircd announces the list of currently known servers
to a new (connecting) server, it sent the introducer of
the servers instead of the top server.
Assuming this network:
irc1.example.com
|--irc2.example.com
| `--irc3.example.com
| `--irc4.example.com
`--irc5.example.com
When irc4 connects to irc3, irc3 tells irc4 that irc5 was
connected to irc2. (irc2 had introduced irc5 to irc3; but thats
not what ngircd should have sent to the new server).
This also placed users on the wrong servers.
if (Client_Hops(Server) == 1)
c = Client_ThisServer();
else
- c = Client_Introducer(Server);
+ c = Client_TopServer(Server);
/* Inform new server about the one already registered in the network */
return IRC_WriteStrClientPrefix(Client, c, "SERVER %s %d %d :%s",
