Wildcards in hostgroup definitions

[Duncan Berriman]

Hi Erik,

Appears to work just fine for me if I am testing your case correctly.

Perhaps you could post the config file (or snip of) that's causing the
issue.

Hi all -

Got a mystery regarding the use of regex matching that I hope someone on the
listserv might clear.  We have the appropriate config options to use regex,
and 
it works just fine for the members directive - ie. "members    .*" expands
just 
as we'd expect.  

But "hostgroup_members    .*" returns an error along the lines of "Could not

find member group '.*' specified in hostgroup....", leading us to believe
that Nagios is simply ignoring regex matching for the hostgroup_members
directive. 
 Anyone know if we're off our rockers, or if Nagios really does handle
things this way?

Thanks,
Erik Larkin
