Hi list,

I was wondering if you can re-use a pattern with multiple pattern2's in 
a pair.

For example if I had 2 pairs

# pair 1
type=pair
ptype=regexp1
pattern=audit\(\d+).*success\=yes\s
desc="Successful command execution"
action=none
ptype2=regexp1
pattern2=audit\(\d+\.\d+\:($1)\)\:.*filterkey\=my-first-key
desc2=$0
action2=shellcmd /do/something



and



# pair 2
type=pair
ptype=regexp1
pattern=audit\(\d+).*success\=yes\s
desc="Successful command execution"
action=none
ptype2=regexp1
pattern2=audit\(\d+\.\d+\:($1)\)\:.*filterkey\=my-second-key
desc2=$0
action2=shellcmd /do/something/else



If they both have the same initial pattern, is it possible for the 
second pair to ever be met? I guess I'm having that problem. The first 
pattern occurs often in my log files, and I really just want to make a 
decision based on the second pattern (if the first pattern is also met). 
I'm not seeing SEC match the second pair's pattern2 though. I think it 
may be because it's waiting for the first pair's pattern2???

Can someone clarify this? I think a workaround is to specify a bunch of 
OR cases in my second pattern, but that's less than ideal because there 
may be many OR cases in the future.

Thanks in advance,
Tim
