It was very helpful. I've managed to craft a couple dozen filter statements together which, if my eyes are not deceiving me and the syslog is telling me the truth, are working. Today I installed leafnode-1.11.5.rc3. I'll let it run for a few days and see how it works, after including the PCRE_CASELESS option to some select filters. As I said above, I've now about a dozen working filters. They are heavily commented; nearly every keystroke is explained (which, I hope, said explanation is correct) before the rule is encountered. Perhaps someone else might find them useful. If you'd like, I'll post them here or email you directly with them, (your preference), after they have run a few more days against the rc3 version. Earlier, you asked about the program "regexcoach". I'm not too sure what all it understands (a lot of these regular expressions, especially the PERL extensions, read like Greek did to me, before I learned Greek, but that's another story), but, all the filter examples I managed to hack together pass through it okay. It has a "step" feature, where each part of the expression is tested, in a visual manner, against the string being checked. For those who are interested, regexcoach is available here: http://www.weitz.de/regex-coach/ The documentation on the website looks fairly comprehensive, but remember I don't know what I'm looking at; it could be bull for all I know :-) Best Regards to you & yours, Mike -- Mike McCarrey, Amateur Radio: WA7QZR Spokane, WA USA Please avoid sending me Word or PowerPoint attachments.
