Yes, that did it. For some reason didn't think of making the whole thing a
regex.
Thank you.

*Subject:* [hobbit] Problem with Regular Expression in Alert
Hi Everyone,
I am having an issue where Hobbit will not take multiple alert parameters
if one of them is a regular expression. I have my hobbit built with MRTG
integration. My example is that I want to have my catch all rule exclude all
msgs and interfaces (in the format int01-08, int09-16, ...).
This works: COLOR=red EXSERVICE=%^int.*
This doesn't work: COLOR=red EXSERVICE=msgs,%^int.*
Does anyone have any hints, how to get this working? Maybe even a logical
approach to get it working and not necessary a technical approach?
Thanks.
