This has been a problem for a long time (one of only 2 things I can fault
xymon for) and I hope it is on the list of things to fix in the next
release.

I have nothing that can help you  except to say that having tried many, many
different combinations of quotes and regular expressions, all I have been
able to conclude is that sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. I have
not been able to determine a pattern.

This is the data in /var/adm/messages file

This is the entry in hobbit-client.cfg

 LOG /var/adm/messages "%(?-i)WARNING|(?-i)ERROR" IGNORE=%fcsm.*

I also tried %.*fcsm.* with no avail

But I am still getting alerts for that line in messages file

What am I doing wrong?
