Public bug reported: I'm running nagios 3.2.3-3ubuntu1 on 64 bit Ubuntu 12.04.
I've turned on regular expression matching in /etc/nagios3/nagios.cfg with the line: use_regexp_matching=1 If I have some hosts defined like this in a file in /etc/nagios3/conf.d: define host{ use generic-host ; Name of host template to use host_name array001 address 10.1.1.1 } define host{ use generic-host ; Name of host template to use host_name array002a address 10.1.2.1 } define host{ use generic-host ; Name of host template to use host_name array002b address 10.1.2.2 } and a hostgroup defined like this in a file in /etc/nagios3/conf.d: define hostgroup { hostgroup_name array2w alias Array 2 Wildcard members array002* } then, nagios will include host array001 in the hostgroup array2w even though it shouldn't match. ** Affects: nagios3 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1162119 Title: nagios not expanding wildcards correctly To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nagios3/+bug/1162119/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
