http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=16507 Remote Host Filter does not allow wild-card ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-01-28 19:56 ------- This may be a problem with the documentation. The RemoteHost valve uses the jakarta-regexp API, you can look at the docs for it to find out what regexp's can be used. For example a '.' in a regexp means match any single character. To match a period in a string the '.' has to be escaped as '\.'. Also '*' means match 0 to N number of times on the previous character or expression. So '.*' would match any character, any number of times. In your case, a leading '*' caused the regexp to fail because there was no previous character. Hope this helps.
