Hi I'm not entirely sure if this is possible, but I'm going to ask anyway (after all I'm not an *expert* on perl, you always learn something new).
Is is possible to match: [EMAIL PROTECTED] with [EMAIL PROTECTED] ? I've managed to split it up into 3 variables each, $nicktomatch contains "*" $identtomatch contains "*dan*" $hosttomatch contains "192.*.0.4" and $propernick contains "dan" $properident contains "dan" $properhost contains "192.168.0.4" So I'm trying to get a match of $nicktomatch with $propernick (of course this is a match, a * matches anything, but maybe what if it was d*n, would match anything starting with d, and ending in n) and $identtomatch with $properident, again the same situation above, and $hosttomatch with $properhost, also the same situation, but having to take into account that not all hosts will be ip addresses, some will be resolved into hosts. If this isn't possible, it's ok, but would be nice if it was, or if there's some sort of module I can use that does this sort of thing. Thanks in advance.
