Viagra IRCd is an IRC Daemon I developed while attending college at Rochester Institute of Technology. Its code base was Titan IRCd (of which development ended prematurely). The last version of Titan IRCd was unsuitable for production use do to its incomplete state. It crashed constantly lending to Viagra IRCd’s original development name of “Titanic”. Though only available to a few select networks the development version quickly created a buzz. After many late nights the IRCd reached a stable code base. So stable that many of the test networks joked that we should name it “Viagra IRCd” and use “Rock Solid Stability” as its catch phrase… Perhaps it was the lack of sleep but I applied the name and it stuck.

Viagra IRCd is no longer in development but I have maintained it’s availability here, on my personal blog, for future development and loyal users. I may decided to continue development in the future – and if I do so, you will be able to find more details here.

The daemon was based on the bahamut and titan code bases which incorporated many of the features found in daemons like Unreal IRCd and Ultimate IRCd. It was/is supported by Anope Services, Auspice Services, Neo Stats, a custom distribution of Epona (available for download here, although it contains many security vulnerabilities and should not be used in an unpatched state), and Floodworld.

*The version of Floodworld available for download will work with other ircd’s in addition to Viagra IRCd. After Brian M. King stopped supporting Floodworld I maintained the distribution incorporating fixes for many of the known exploits. It is still a viable flood protection service for small to medium irc networks.
