That doesn't work, it prevents the string, HOST=%"^pan$" or HOST="%^pan$" both prevent 'pan' from being matched.

As it has been pointed out before somethings require double quotes ". If that works, then this would be one of those cases. All our regexes are typically in double quotes.

Hang on there! Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the point is that the $ should anchor the end of the string and it should never match pandora. Right? Steve.

HOST=%^pan$ or HOST=pan
Hope that helps

I am having a problem with alerts going to the wrong people. I have a line in hobbit-alerts.cfg:
HOST=%pan$
(this is just for demo and test purposes, I know that particular entry doesn't make a lot of sense ) The problem is that this line is matching with a host name "pandora". Is there any way to stop this?
Thanks, Larry Barber
