This document will aid you in setting up and running OPSB on your IRC network.</p><p>OPSB is a Proxy Scanning Service that scans connecting clients for Open Proxies. These Open Proxies are often used by malicious users and trojans to connect to your network and attack the network, users, or channels that you host. It bases its scanning engine on the BOPM proxy scanning library available at http://www.blitzed.org, but unlike the BOPM software, it has native support to scan all clients network wide, rather than via individual servers. This means that you only need one OPSB service running on your network to protect your entire IRC network.</p><p>Additionally, OPSB makes use of Open Proxy lists. These lists often contain IP addresses of verified Open Proxies, and OPSB can ban these users without even scanning. By default, OPSB uses the blitzed open proxy list (More details available at http://opm.blitzed.org)</p><p>OPSB is flexible in that it has many advanced configuration options available to IRC administrators, including the ability to easily modify the protocols and ports to scan of connecting users, as well as exclude certian users or servers from scanning. This allows you maxium flexibility without the overhead of running multiple copies of proxy scanning software. In addition, it has the ability to Queue up scans, so during periods of peak usage, OPSB will not consume all bandwidth or file descriptors, but still scan users in a timely manor.</p><p>Proxy Scanning is only one defence against Trojans and Malicious users, and can not detect all types of open Proxies. We therefore recomend that the IRC administrators run other software such as SecureServ, and familiarize themselves with the OperServ functionality found in most traditional IRC services packages.</p><p>By Default, OPSB scans the following protocols and ports (But this can be easily customized)</p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="disc"><li><p>HTTP Proxies on Port 80, 3128, 8000, 8080</p></li><li><p>HTTP Post Proxies on Port 80, 3128, 8000, 8080</p></li><li><p>Wingate Servers on Port 23</p></li><li><p>Insecure Cisco Routers on port 23</p></li><li><p>SOCKS4 Servers on 1080</p></li><li><p>SOCKS5 Servers on 1080</p></li></ul></div><p>These ports are some of the more common ports, but administrators might find other ports that are often associated with open proxies. In these cases, the administrator can simple add the new port to be scanning without restarting OPSB.</p><div class="warning" style="margin-left: 0.5in; margin-right: 0.5in;"><h3 class="title">Warning</h3><p>When picking a host to run OPSB from, make sure you check with your Shell or ISP provider to ensure that there are no Transparent HTTP proxies enabled on that network. Transparent proxies are often used to speed up HTTP downloads for users without requiring the user to update their browser configuration. If you often get false positive scans on users on port 80, then most likely your hosting provider has implemented a Transparent Proxy. See if they can disable this transparent proxy for you, or alternativly, find a new hosting provider that does not run a transparent proxy. THERE IS NO WAY FOR OPSB TO DETECT IT IS BEHIND A TRANSPARENT PROXY.</p></div><div class="warning" style="margin-left: 0.5in; margin-right: 0.5in;"><h3 class="title">Warning</h3><p>As of writting, this software is BETA quality. Not all functionality has been implemented, and additionally, there might be some "BAD" bugs in OPSB that cause it to AKILL your entire network. Our testing and Development of OPSB was run on a large network, and so far, has proved stable, and effective in protecting our network, BUT every users enviroment is different. While we have taken all precautions and conducted a extensive QA cycle before the release of OPSB, its a "Use at your Own Risk" Module. Of Course, if you do have bad experiences with OPSB, please let us know at <a href="#">http://www.neostats.net/boards/</a></p></div><p>OPSB is written and maintained by Justin Hammond. It requires the NeoStats software. More information about OPSB, or NeoStats, can be found at <a href="#">http://www.neostats.net/</a></p><p>OPSB is Copyright, 2003 by Justin Hammond.</p><div class="sect1" lang="en"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h2 class="title" style="clear: both"><a name="d0e51"></a>1. Prerequisites and Installation.</h2></div></div><div></div></div><p>OPSB is designed to run on Top of NeoStats. The Following requirements at the time of writting are required for NeoStats:</p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="disc"><li><p>A Linux or BSD based Server or Shell.</p></li><li><p>A supported IRCd. Currently, Hybrid7, Unreal, Ultimate2.x, Ultimate3.x, NeoIRCd, Bahumat</p></li><li><p>Some basic Unix administration Skill</p></li><li><p>Of Course, a IRC network to connect it all together.</p></li></ul></div><p>Please refer to the NeoStats website for more information on the requirements</p><p>OPSB itself requires the following:</p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="disc"><li><p>NeoStats 2.5.8 or Higher correctly installed and Running</p></li><li><p>The time to read this entire document. </p><div class="warning" style="margin-left: 0.5in; margin-right: 0.5in;"><h3 class="title">Warning</h3><p>OPSB has the potential to Akill/Gline your entire network. Its strongly suggested that you read this entire document before even attempting to compile OPSB, as I'm just going to laugh, if you didn't read, and it AKILL's your entire network. This is Beta Software, there are BUGS. beware.</p></div></li></ul></div><div class="sect2" lang="en"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a name="d0e83"></a>1.1. Compiling and Installation</h3></div></div><div></div></div><p>As long as you have successfully setup NeoStats, and installed it correctly, Compiling OPSB is very simple and straight forward. First you must extract the files from the download package. This is as simple as:</p><pre class="screen">bash$<span><b class="command"> tar -xzf OPSB-<ver>.tar.gz</b></span></pre><p>This should then create a directory called OPSB-<version> where <version> is the Version of OPSB. Then Proceed to Change into the OPSB directory, and run Configure as follows:</p><pre class="screen">bash$<span><b class="command">./configure [--enable-debug | --with-neostats=<dir>]</b></span></pre><p>--enable-debug is only usefull for diagnostics purposes when used in conjuction with debugging tools. There should be no need to use this option on a day to day basis</p><p>--with-neostats=<dir> should be used if your neostats directory is not in a standard location (~/NeoStats/). Replace <dir> with the full path to your NeoStats installation directory (NOT SOURCE DIRECTORY)</p><p>Configuring OPSB will look something like the following screen:</p><pre class="screen">[Fish@fish-dt]$ ./configure

Basic Configuration</h2></div></div><div></div></div><p>OPSB is completly configured online via IRC. When you first start up OPSB, it attempts some "Sane" defaults for you to get started with, but you should always review these settings as soon as you install. Additionally, while its in this "Default" state, it will warn you every so often via a global message as well as messages to the services channel that it is still "unconfigured". Some of the settings that you may want to review right away are:</p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="disc"><li><p>Exclusion Lists - You should setup a Exclude list for your IRC Services server (NickServ etc)</p></li><li><p>Target IP address and Ports that OPSB tries to get the proxies to connect to.</p></li><li><p>Default Ban Time when OPSB finds a open Proxy.</p></li></ul></div><p>These are outlined below:</p><div class="sect2" lang="en"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a name="d0e147"></a>2.1. Exclusion Lists</h3></div></div><div></div></div><p>Exclusion lists allow you to specify certian Hostmasks or Servers that should be excluded from monitoring by OPSB. This exclusion list would allow a administrator to say, allow users on that are matched against a open proxy, when the administrator has verified that the trojan does not in fact exist on the users host.</p><div class="caution" style="margin-left: 0.5in; margin-right: 0.5in;"><h3 class="title">Caution</h3><p>Exclusions should be setup for your Services Server, so that OPSB does not try to scan ChanServ, or NickServ, or any of the bots relating to Nickname protection.</p></div><p><span class="bold"><b>Adding a Entry</b></span></p><p>To add a entry to the Exclusion list, use the following format:</p><pre class="screen">/msg OPSB exclude add <1/0> <type> <reason></pre><p>Where:</p><p><host> = The HostName/Server or Channel name. WildCards ? and * are permitted.</p><p><type> = The type of exclusion. 0 is for HostNames, 1 is for Servers</p><p><reason> = a short description of the exclusion, for operator reference only.</p><p>The output is as follows:</p><pre class="screen">>OPSB< exclude add services.irc-chat.net 1 Blah is my reason

TARGET IP and TARGET PORT</h3></div></div><div></div></div><p>By default, OPSB sets up each proxy scan to attempt to connect back to the IP address and port of the server that NeoStats connects to. This may not always be what you wish, as it can help a attacker map our how your network is structured. Ideally, you should pick the IP address of a IRC server you host that is stable and on a fast connection, and enter its IP address and port numbers into OPSB.</p><p><span class="bold"><b>Changing the TargetIP</b></span></p><p>To add a entry to the Helper list, use the following format:</p><pre class="screen">/msg OPSB set targetip <newipaddress></pre><p>Where:</p><p><newipaddress> = The ip address to attempt to get proxies to connect to</p><p>The output is as follows:</p><pre class="screen"> -> *opsb* set targetip 203.208.228.144

Detailed Configuration</h2></div></div><div></div></div><p>OPSB attempts to be as configurable as possible in order to cater for each individual networks requirements. This in turn though makes the configuration very complex. There are many many settings with OPSB that affect how it operates, how it responds and even, how affects the performance of NeoStats Overall. Out of the box, OPSB provides sensible defaults for these settings, but you may wish to read this section for details on exactly what each option does, and its affect on how OPSB operates.</p><p>The following list summaries the available Options you can set in OPSB</p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="disc"><li><p>CACHETIME</p></li><li><p>DISABLESCAN</p></li><li><p>DOBAN</p></li><li><p>OPMDOMAIN</p></li><li><p>MAXBYTES</p></li><li><p>TIMEOUT</p></li><li><p>OPENSTRING</p></li><li><p>SPLITTIME</p></li><li><p>SCANMSG</p></li></ul></div><p>To change any of these settings, you use the Set Interface in OPSB. Eg:</p><pre class="screen">/msg OPSB set <option> <params></pre><p>To view the current settings, issue the following command:</p><pre class="screen">/msg OPSB set list</pre><p>The following Sections describes the different options, their params, and the effect on OPSB in detail.</p><div class="sect2" lang="en"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a name="d0e292"></a>3.1. CACHETIME Setting</h3></div></div><div></div></div><p>In order to improve performance, OPSB caches the results of scans it has performed so if a user disconnects and reconnects, they are not scanned again, and thus this saves bandwidth and improves the performance of OPSB. By default, OPSB saves previous scans for 1 hour. Smaller IRC networks may wish to increase this value, while larger IRC networks that are concerned about performance or memory usage of OPSB may with to leave this setting as it is. Setting the cache time to 0 disables the use of caching, and forces OPSB to scan every user connecting every time.</p><p>To Change the setting, issue the following Command:</p><pre class="screen">/msg OPSB set CACHETIME <seconds> </pre></div><div class="sect2" lang="en"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a name="d0e301"></a>3.2. DISABLESCAN Setting</h3></div></div><div></div></div><p>Sometimes a IRC administrator may wish to only make use of the Open Proxy list lookup, and not actually perform a scan on users. DISABLESCAN forces OPSB to only perform a lookup of the IP address in the configured OPMDOMAIN.</p><p>If you wish to turn off Proxy checks, issue the following command</p><pre class="screen">/msg OPSB set DISABLESCAN <ON/OFF></pre></div><div class="sect2" lang="en"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a name="d0e310"></a>3.3. DOBAN Setting</h3></div></div><div></div></div><p>Often, when setting up OPSB for the first time, or making changes to the ports that are to be scanning, you may wish to test OPSB without it actually performing a AKILL. Turning DOBAN off disables the placement of a AKILL on open Proxy hosts.</p><p>To Change the setting, issue the following Command:</p><pre class="screen">/msg OPSB set DOBAN <ON/OFF> </pre></div><div class="sect2" lang="en"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a name="d0e319"></a>3.4. OPMDOMAIN Setting</h3></div></div><div></div></div><p>This setting changes with domain OPSB should consult for a positive match on a particular IP address. By Default, OPSB checks opm.blizted.org. Another list may be substituted instead of the default on. At this time, we have not tested any other open proxy list, although most lists should work with no problems. Please report success/failure to our boards</p><p>To Change this Setting, issue the following Command:</p><pre class="screen">/msg OPSB set OPMDOMAIN <newdomain></pre></div><div class="sect2" lang="en"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a name="d0e328"></a>3.5. MAXBYTES Setting</h3></div></div><div></div></div><p>Maxbytes controls how much data to read from a open connection before determining that the host in question does not contain a Open Proxy. As we check ports that are common with legitimate applications such as webservers, we don't need to download the entire webpage to determine that it is not a open proxy. By default, we only read 500 bytes which should be sufficient for most networks.</p><p>To Change this Setting, issue the following Command:</p><pre class="screen">/msg OPSB set MAXBYTES <bytelimit></pre></div><div class="sect2" lang="en"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a name="d0e337"></a>3.6. TIMEOUT</h3></div></div><div></div></div><p>It is very common for users to now use personal firewall software on their PC. This often leads to probes the the users ip address that never actually get rejected or are successfull, but just hang trying to connect. the Timeout value controls how long to wait before assuming that the host is not operating a proxy. By default, we wait 30 seconds</p><p>To Change this setting, issue the following command:</p><pre class="screen">/msg OPSB set TIMEOUT <seconds></pre></div><div class="sect2" lang="en"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a name="d0e346"></a>3.7. OPENSTRING</h3></div></div><div></div></div><p>This setting controls what strings to look for that indicate a Open Proxy. By default, we look for the standard string "*** Looking up your hostname..." which is one of the first messages sent to connecting IRC clients. There should be no need to change this setting. Internally, OPSB also scans for common Trottle or akill messages.</p><p>To Change this setting, issue the following command:</p><pre class="screen">/msg OPSB set OPENSTRING <newstring></pre></div><div class="sect2" lang="en"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a name="d0e355"></a>3.8. SPLITTIME</h3></div></div><div></div></div><p>OPSB is very sensitive to timedrifts on the IRC network. In order to not scan users that might be part of a Netjoin (When two IRC servers reconnect after a Netsplit) we only scan users who's signon time is less than this setting. If your IRC network times are not in sync, you might experience issues where users connecting to one "lagged" out server are not scanning. In this case, you should fix the time on the affected server. A last resort is to increase this time value. By default, we only scan users that connected in the last 300 seconds</p><p>To Change this setting, issue the following command:</p><pre class="screen">/msg OPSB set SPLITTIME <seconds></pre></div><div class="sect2" lang="en"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a name="d0e364"></a>3.9. SCANMSG Setting</h3></div></div><div></div></div><p>This setting changes the default message that is sent to users when they sign on the IRC network. You can customise this message to point to a webpage giving more details, or customize to your local language.</p><p>To Change the setting, issue the following Command:</p><pre class="screen">/msg OPSB set SCANMSG <msg> </pre></div></div><div class="sect1" lang="en"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h2 class="title" style="clear: both"><a name="d0e373"></a>4. Operational Commands</h2></div></div><div></div></div><p>OPSB has a number of commands that you can issue it in order to perform checks or operations on your IRC network.
