It's you. The "s*" in your regular expression matches zero or more "s" at
that location. The hostname you give contains zero "s" at that point,
which matches the expression.

Subject: Possible regex issue xymon 4.3.11
I have the following in alerts.cfg
HOST=%sciv2-ws*
The problem is that it is picking up a host called
sciv2-wdl2-hqd01
Is it me or the regex ?
Has this been fixed in newer versions ?
Thanks !
