I am having a requirement where I need to replace/comment a line from 
rsyslog.conf file 
I am unable to correctly state the regexp. Please Help.

INADEQUATE INFORMATION AVAILABLE ONLINE.

I have been testing the following script which is failing:


YAML using "lineinfile"
---
- name: Comment out *.*@10.1.0.100 line in /etc/rsyslog.conf
  lineinfile:
      path: /etc/rsyslog.conf
      regexp: '^*\.*@10\.1\.0\.100)'
      line: '# *.* @10.1.0.100'


YAML using "replace"
---

- name: Comment out *.*@10.1.0.100 line in /etc/rsyslog.conf
  replace:
      path: /etc/rsyslog.conf
      regexp: '*.* @10.1.0.100'
      replace: '# *.* @10.1.0.100'
