| Summary | 0002535: Ban/TKL Exception Blocks Clarification | ||||
| Description | Section 4.19: "The except ban block allows you to specify a user@host that will override a ban placed on a broader host..." Section 4.20: "The except tkl block allows you to specify a user@host that will override a tkl ban placed on a broader host." I suggest that section 4.19 be updated to be more clear on the purpose of this block. From what I understand, except ban overrides ban blocks in unrealircd.conf, and except tkl overrides tkl bans. It should be made clear that the except ban overrides blocks like the ban version, real name, etc. blocks. | ||||

According to aquanight in #unreal-support: (14:07:24) (@aquanight) Digerati: except ban also affects bans via /kline (14:07:37) (@aquanight) and /zline If this is true (which I assume it is), this definately needs to be explained more clearly in the docs, and the specific differences between except ban and except tkl need to be distinguished. |

I think it can be basically explained like this: except tkl is exception from any (or all) of: gline, qline (ban nick {} or tkl, interestingly enough (no unreal does not have a builtin way to add tkl local qlines)), gqline (or sqline if you prefer), shun, gzline. except ban is exception from all of: kline, zline (ban user/ip {} or tkl). There is no exempt from spamfilter (short of oper{}, although when the kline/zline/gline/gzline spamfilter actions are used the corresponding except blocks apply). Yes, I think the docs should probably mention this all :P . |
|
|
so basically, add a ban exception block rather than a tkl with all the types :P |
|
|
Bump. Still an issue? |

I don't know if this has been documented already, but we fixed some stuff related to this in the source, see changelog. The docs must reflect the current behavior (both the stuff below, and the stuff in this bugreport above). - except ban { } is now also effective against Z:lines. It already protected when the user was connected, but not once he/she tried to reconnect, this is now fixed. Reported several times, last by Stealth in 0003377. |

Fixed in .898: - Clarified the difference between 'except ban' (which exempts from KLINE and ZLINE) and 'except tkl' (which can exempt from GLINE, GZLINE, SHUN, QLINE, GQLINE and SHUN). Reported by Digerati (0002535). - Added except tkl::type 'all', which exempts from all TKL types (except KLINE). |
