When attempting to use the match(".asx") in my filter it is returning anything with "asx". I only need to return those lines with the period before the asx, hence a file extension. For some reason syslog-ng seems to ignore my specification of the . before the asx. I have tried searching with ..asx and \.asx and /.asx but doesn't seem to work no matter what I do. Any suggestions?
match() expects an extended regular expression. _and_ syslog-ng performs \ based escaping for strings to make it possible to include " within the string. Therefore you need to specify: match("\\.asx") it will match a single dot followed by the string asx -- Bazsi PGP info: KeyID 9AF8D0A9 Fingerprint CD27 CFB0 802C 0944 9CFD 804E C82C 8EB1
