Syslog-ng: 1.5.18 and 1.4.11
If I have a message that looks like this:
Jun 3 00:16:52 X.X.X.X/X.X.X.X rido-ott[System]: request for unserviced tcp:X.X.X.X-25 from X.X.X.X denied
if I want to match this part
[System]: request for unserviced
I have to leave out the leading '['.
eg
match("[System]: request for unserviced") will not
but
match("System]: request for unserviced") will
Is this a bug in the matching grammar? If I used normal regexp syntax
and escape the '[' as in '\[' is stiil won't work.
