# ctrlproxyrc(5)

Configuration file for ctrlproxy

## NAME

ctrlproxyrc - Configuration file for ctrlproxy

## DESCRIPTION

Ctrlproxy uses an XML file for configuration. Check the ctrlproxyrc.example file for a good example. There are a few so-called 'sections' in the file that are discussed below.

### plugins

This section contains a list of all the plugins that are to be loaded. A \<plugin\> tag specifies a plugin. The 'file' attribute specifies the location the plugin can be found. Additional attributes or child elements can be specified, depending on the plugin.

### networks

This section contains a list of all the servers to join. The \<network\> element supports the attributes: nick, username, fullname, type, pass.

pass contains the password to join the server. client\_pass contains the password any client that connects to the proxy should send.

The \<network\> element supports the child element \<channel\>. Attributes of this element are name (indicating the name of the channel) and autojoin (whether or not to join the channel on start).

Each \<network\> element contains a \<servers\> element which contains several transport-specific elements. The standard 'socket' module provides the transports 'ipv4', 'ipv6' and 'pipe'.
