Lookup wildcard

Hello,

I need a help with using wildcards in lookup. 

I want to exclude from search results fields, which are located in lookup.

Example:

Search: host=*  | search NOT [| inputlookup test_lookup.csv]
Lookup test_lookup.csv containts two fields:

exe,comm

/usr/sbin/useradd,*

 

I need to exclude all results which include exe="/usr/sbin/useradd" and any *comm* field.

I added WILCARD(comm) in lookup definitions, but it doesn't work.

transforms.conf

[test_lookup.csv]
batch_index_query = 0
case_sensitive_match = 1
filename = test_lookup
match_type = WILDCARD(comm)

 

What I did wrong? Thank you.
