Except TKL block

The except tkl block allows you to specify a user@host that will override a tkl ban placed on a broader host. This is useful when you want an ISP banned, but still want specific users to be able to connect.

NOTE: In UnrealIRCd 5 this block no longer exists, see Except ban block instead

Syntax

except tkl {
	mask <hostmask>;
	type <type>;
	type { 
		<type>;
		<type>;
		...
	};
};

The except::mask directive specifies the user@host mask of the client who will be allowed to connect. The except::type specifies which type of ban this should override. Valid types are gline, gzline, qline, gqline, shun, and all, which make an exception from Glines, Global Zlines, Qlines, Global Qlines, shuns, and all bans except KLINE/ZLINE. If the type {} format is used, multiple types may be specified.

NOTE: If you want to exempt a host completely from all possible bans (except spamfilter), then you need both an 'except ban' and an 'except tkl' block

Example

except tkl {
	mask myident@my.isp.com;
	type gline;
};
