mod_firewall: Update user marks to store instantly via map store
The original approach was to keep marks in memory only, and persist them at
shutdown. That saves I/O, at the cost of potentially losing marks on an
unclean shutdown.
This change persists marks instantly, which may have some performance overhead
but should be more "correct".
It also splits the marking/unmarking into an event which may be watched or
even fired by other modules.

Introduction ============ On a server with public registration it is usually desirable to prevent registration of certain "reserved" accounts, such as "admin". This plugin allows you to reserve individual usernames, or those matching certain patterns. It also allows you to ensure that usernames conform to a certain pattern. Configuration ============= Enable the module as any other: modules_enabled = { "block_registrations"; } You can then set some options to configure your desired policy: Option Default Description ------------------------------ ------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- block_registrations_users *See source code* A list of reserved usernames block_registrations_matching `{ }` A list of [Lua patterns](http://www.lua.org/manual/5.1/manual.html#5.4.1) matching reserved usernames (slower than block_registrations_users) block_registrations_require `nil` A pattern that registered user accounts MUST match to be allowed Some examples: block_registrations_users = { "admin", "root", "xmpp" } block_registrations_matching = { "master$" -- matches anything ending with master: postmaster, hostmaster, webmaster, etc. } block_registrations_require = "^[a-zA-Z0-9_.-]+$" -- Allow only simple ASCII characters in usernames Compatibility ============= ------ ------- 0.12 Works 0.11 Work ------ -------
