Trying to keep the syntax consistent across syslog-ng items, I recommend something like match("expr" option(nocase, exact, replace(text), global)) nocase - case insensitive match exact - match the exact text for cases wherey you want to mtach the .*$?^ characters replace - replace the matched text with the included text. this may have effect on successive matches this may include back substitution from the expression. global - match/replace all occurances of the expression. Some of these features may be reserved for version 2.1 Evan Rempel. Balazs Scheidler wrote:

Is there a way I can do a case insensitive match in syslog-ng?
Every place I've seen from grep to python to perl has their own way of doing the case insensitive flag.
So how do I set the case-insensitive match flag in syslog-ng?
Simple answer: you can't. Longer answer: you can't currently as noone has ever asked this before (or at least I can't remember).
Do you happen to have a suggestion how this should look like?
