regex help

I need to filter out some events on the heavy forwarder. I know how to do this but I need some help with the regex.

If dstip=123.123.123.123 and dstport=514 and rule_name not ="this is my rule"

drop the events.

These are the events I want to see.......

I did something similar for someone else on here today, and for you I think something like this would work:

 props.conf

 [yoursourcetype]
 TRANSFORMS-null = setnull

 transforms.conf

 [setnull]
 REGEX = dstip=123.123.123.123,dstport=514,.+,rule_name="this is my rule"
 DEST_KEY = queue
 FORMAT = nullQueue

Well, what does the event you're trying to filter look like? The example you provided seems to refer just to field names, not to actual event text.
