Found the solution.  This works...

  LOG %/var/(adm|log)/messages "%named.*?general.*?exiting" COLOR-=yellow

Found it in a 2009 Xymon archive after some serious digging. :)

Thanks!

I have a problem with a named exiting occasionally.  In an attempt to
alert myself when it happens, I placed the following in my analysis.cfg...

LOG %/var/(adm|log)/messages "%named%general%exiting" COLOR-=yellow

...yet when the following appeared...

[date.time] [host] named[9999]:daemon.notice<99>: general: exiting

..nothing happened.  I even restarted xymon, waited for a new occurrence,
and it still didn't turn yellow.

Am I wildcarding correctly, or is there a better way to find this line?

Thanks,
David
