In the server/etc/analysis.cfg file I have the following:

HOST=ourserver1 LOG=/var/adm/messages IGNORE="%terminal-device not specifiedby login%"

LOG=/var/adm/messages IGNORE="terminal-device not specifiedby login"

I want to ignore messages containing the string "terminal-device not specifiedby login"

May 31 17:22:53 ourserver1 bpjava-msvc[7112]: [ID 427199 user.error] pam_dial_auth: terminal-device not specifiedby login, returning Error in underlying service module.

Unfortunately it doesn't work.

What am I doing wrong?
