Summary0005524: Except Throttle does not work on 5.0.1
DescriptionThe block "Except Throttle" as described in https://www.unrealircd.org/docs/Except_throttle_block does not function under 5.0.1, but did on 4.x
Steps To Reproduce1) Use the default set::anti-flood::connect-flood to 3:60
2) Add an except throttle for your client IP
3) Attempt more than 3 connections
Additional InformationI have tried using the following two blocks, both fail to exempt my throttling.

except throttle {
        mask *@10.1.100.10;
};

except throttle {
        mask 10.1.100.10;
};

I can also confirm that my allow block allows enough clients for my IP.

allow {
        ip *@10.1.100.10;
        class clients;
        maxperip 500;
};

Also wanted to add that changing set::anti-flood::connect-flood to something like 60:60 overcomes the described issue, so we can be sure that it's this setting.

Thanks for the report, I have fixed it now in git. I made a mistake in this compatibility code.
See the commit below, and also there is mentioned an alternative which you can use that does work in the meantime, so you can use 5.0.1 :)

    except throttle { } was not working, reported by LesterClayton in
    https://bugs.unrealircd.org/view.php?id=5524
    
    On a side note, the new method did work OK:
    except ban { mask 127.0.0.1; type connect-flood; }
