This is that difference between the perl regexp parsing and the shell parsing we're used to - you want '.*' (dot asterisk) where you have just '*'. IIRC, in perl, that means 'match any charcter (the dot)' followed by 'match any number of the previous character (the asterisk)'.

Ok

I think it is something with my wildcard.

When I added the "DISK /g05 IGNORE" line it did ignore /g05.

But I don't want to have to add every single filesystem. So what is wrong with my wildcard?

    DISK %^/i.*/ 100 100

    DISK %^/j.*/ 100 100

    DISK %^/g.*/ IGNORE
