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?
