This probably isn't the problem, but you're missing a '[' before scan.

Yeah; I manually typed it into the msg - they're in the actual filter,
though.

On v2.12.00 this did the trick:

log-fw  Sender  Yes
alert   Subject Yes
[attack dropped]|scan dropped]|[sppf dropped]   TextYes

Apparently, using the | in between []'s isn't working - on v2.12.00.
I'd say I had used this in my tests before, but alas... thanks again,
Marck.

Thank you Marck - I omitted I'm at v2.12.00


Filter text matching is case insensitive by default.

Aha, I thought so but my filtering results seemed contrary.


Ah - well, [] and Regex cannot be used together. And I'm not sure that
this applies in the same way to V3 filters. Sounds like you're using
v2. This is not going to make it easy since nobody can test your
filters or supply you with one.

Nobody using v2 anymore? Mhhh...
(I'm not going to repeat the discussion, but as long as there's no
solution for a number of existing bugs and HTML editing isn't
improving, I see no reason to spend -corporate- money)


That is a mess I'm afraid. You can't combine wildcards with regex as
you have done here.

Yeah, I was afraid so :-\


 log-fw  Sender  Yes
 alert   Subject Yes
 [scan|attack] dropped   TextYes

The filter is now as above, let's see how that works out
(I didn't try any text outside the []'s, as I thought that would
really not work at all with the space in there)


 ...
  (+ Alternative)
 ...

I realized I could have used Alternatives, but that requires repeating
the first two strings ... I hate redundancy :-)

Like I say - I don't have v1/2 or the v1/2 help file to verify any of
the advice here.

Much appreciated anyway!! I'll update in a few hours (hopefully)

Help with filters please

2005-02-22 Thread Cory
Hi @ll,

Could someone please give me a hint on how to work this out?

I want to set up filtering for log messages where sender and subject
contain similar strings, and body text contains (non-) capitalized
lowercase phrases like scan dropped and Attack Dropped.
The use of [] and | isn't all that clear to me, and wildcards
combined with regular expressions enabled isn't doing the trick
either...

This set:

log-fw  Sender  Yes
alert|Alert Subject Yes
[?can ?ropped]|[?ttack ?ropped]
TextYes

...isn't hitting any msg, 

Anyone? TIA!

That is a mess I'm afraid. You can't combine wildcards with regex as
you have done here. Since the matching is case insensitive, just put
the real characters in instead of the ? characters. V3 would eat this
for breakfast.

Try one or all of these:

(1)

 log-fw  Sender  Yes
 alert   Subject Yes
 [scan|attack] dropped   TextYes

(2)

 log-fw  Sender  Yes
 alert   Subject Yes
 scan dropped|attack dropped TextYes

  (+ Alternative)
 
 log-fw  Sender  Yes

 attack dropped  TextYes
