Getting Data In

windows event filter

In my transforms.conf I have this filter that does not work

[dropevents]

REGEX = (?msi)^host=server1.*^EventCode=4674

DEST_KEY = queue

FORMAT = nullQueue

this does work but dropes events for all systems not just the one system

[dropevents]

REGEX = (?msi)^EventCode=4674

DEST_KEY = queue

FORMAT = nullQueue

My props.conf looks like this

[WinEventLog:Security]

TRANSFORMS-set=dropevents

I found that this works

(?msi)^EventCode=4674.*^ComputerName=(system22|system23|system01).*^Keywords=Audit Success.*SeBackupPrivilege
