The "." matches a single character so I don't believe his expression will work, something like
GET[.].......HTTP[.]...... Might work for his example below. -----Original Message----- From: Mike Ayers [mailto:mike_ay...@tvworks.com] Sent: Thursday, October 29, 2009 2:55 PM To: Haskins, Russell T.; Mudassar Cc: net-snmp users Subject: RE: String monitoring > From: Haskins, Russell T.

Yes, but '.' means "match anything", so his expression should work, if regexps are being used, but his results imply that they are not, and that the string is only matched literally. > From: Mudassar [mailto:mudas...@innovative-pk.com] > Sent: Thursday, October 29, 2009 2:04 PM > I add the following lines in snmpd.conf > > logmatch test /var/adm/messages 1 GET.*HTTP.* > monitor -u _internal -r 2 -o logMatchFilename -o logMatchRegEx -o > logMatchCurrentCount "String found in logfile" logMatchCounter != 0 > > #snmptable -v 2c -c string 10.30.40.227 logMatchTable shows me the > following output > 24 test /var/adm/messages GET.*HTTP.* > > 6 6 6 > 6 0 0 1 > noError > > When i echo the test message in file > > echo "GET.*HTTP.*" >> /var/adm/messages --> opennms genrate the mail > that "GET.*HTTP.*" is occure BUT > echo "GET.hkjhkjhHTTP.789798" >> /var/adm/messages --> no alert > > Where is the problem? Hmmm... can you try "GET*HTTP*" and see if it's globbing instead? HTH, Mike ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Come build with us!
