[AC-Admins] Server configuration differences

Prompted by a mention in #opers that the channel join limit is not
consistent across servers, I've done a /version on each and inspected
for differences.

"/version" differences between servers:

cheetah is on Unreal3.2.6. while all others are on Unreal3.2.8.1.

cheetah is running a kernel from 2004, all others have kernels from
2010-11.

There's an item starting :Fhi which I'm guessing is compile-time flags
but I've not been able to find documentation on them, however:

	bear, husky and lion have "n", all others don't.
	bear, husky, lion and panda have "6", all others don't.
	cheetah and lion have "3", all others don't.

cheetah does not have UHNAMES, all others do.

otter and cheetah have MAXCHANNELS=15 CHANLIMIT=#:15, all others have
MAXCHANNELS=25 CHANLIMIT=#:25.

cheetah does not have WATCHOPTS=A, all others do.

lion has EXTBAN=~,cqnrE while all others have EXTBAN=~,cqnr

Perhaps someone who knows how to interpret all these (or is willing to
spend longer searching documentation) could see what needs changing to
make things more consistent.

Another thought: did anyone do a check to make sure none of our servers
have that backdoor which was put into the distributed version of 3.2.8.1
at one point?  I seem to remember it can be checked remotely.
