Hi !

I'm running xymon 4.3.7 server running on HP-UX 11.31 ia64 using central mode.

We have configured the analysis.cfg for windows clients like: ... SVC "DNS" status=started color=yellow SVC "Dfs" status=started color=yellow SVC "Dhcp" status=started color=yellow SVC "Dnscache" status=started color=yellow SVC "HealthService" status=started color=yellow SVC "IsmServ" status=started color=yellow SVC "LanmanServer" status=started color=yellow ... Everything works OK But Now and then when the Windows servers are restarted then The service name starts up with a different Case !!!

So typically the LanmanServer service suddenly shows lanmanserver or Lanmanserver !!! Or w32time suddenly shows itself as W32time ...

is it possible to use regexp in file analysis.cfg when configuring SVC for windows machines ? like SVC [W|w]32time status=started color=yellow or SVC [L|l]anman[S|s]erver status=started color=yellow I have some service monitoring such as:

    SVC "%[Ee]ventlog" startup=automatic status=started
    SVC "%(?i)LanmanServer" startup=%.* status=started COLOR=yellow

First is just alt chars in pos 1 (you don't use | between options inside [] as your possibilities above), 2nd is match any case.
