Jeff,

Thanks for your reply.

It was a deliberate mail to net-snmp-coders. Because, I knew about the
pattern matching but that would not suffice because we get a trap like
below when we give a '.*' in pattern

DISMAN-EVENT-MIB::sysUpTimeInstance = Timeticks: (3022) 0:00:30.22
SNMPv2-MIB::snmpTrapOID.0 = OID: DISMAN-EVENT-MIB::mteTriggerFired
DISMAN-EVENT-MIB::mteHotTrigger.0 = STRING: Log Match
DISMAN-EVENT-MIB::mteHotTargetName.0 = STRING:
DISMAN-EVENT-MIB::mteHotContextName.0 = STRING:
DISMAN-EVENT-MIB::mteHotOID.0 = OID: UCD-SNMP-MIB::logMatchCurrentCount.1
DISMAN-EVENT-MIB::mteHotValue.0 = INTEGER: 9 UCD-SNMP-MIB::logMatchName.1 =
STRING: loginFailure UCD-SNMP-MIB::logMatchFilename.1 = STRING:
/var/log/auth.log UCD-SNMP-MIB::logMatchCurrentCount.1 = INTEGER: 9
UCD-SNMP-MIB::logMatchRegEx.1 = STRING: Failed password .*

For the following config,
logmatch loginFailure /var/log/auth.log 30 Failed password for .*
and line in log fine as below
Sep  5 19:51:43  sshd[23557]: Failed password for root from xx.xx.xx.xx
port 41569 ssh2

It will match the string but it will not print the username in the trap
data. So, I was looking for any code changes that an be done to make it
expand the pattern and then send that data in trap.

REgards,
Gowtham
