Ircproxy is a transparent IRC content filtering application. It may be used whenever there is a need for monitoring IRC connections.

irc-proxy may be used to deny specific connections or to examine suspicious IRC traffic.

Requirements:
perl 5.6-8.x - ircproxy is supposed to run well on perl (5.6-8.x) which correctly supports POE

Tested on :

Debian testing - perl 5.8.8 / stable - perl 5.8. 4
FreeBSD 6.1 - perl 5.8.8
OpenBSD 3.9 - perl 5.8.6

Module Ircproxy::Firewall also on : NetBSD 2.0.2 but ircproxy is untested.

Ircproxy has been written in POE, so it requires POE engine, and some additional components.

poe + components ( POE,
POE::Component::Server::TCP,
POE::Component::Client::TCP,
POE::Wheel::ReadWrite,
POE::Filter::Stream,
POE::Component::Logger
)

additional perl modules (
Appconfig,
Log::Dispatch,
Log::Dispatch::Config,
Net::DNS,
Net::Netmask,
)

Firewall with redirect support.
