transforms.conf: matching two files in regex

Hello,

I am trying to match using regex where the filenames Svc.chk and edb.chk are in Object_Name.

The following does not work...

REGEX=(?m)^Object Name:.*(edb.chk|Svc.chk)

when trying to find:

Object Name: C:\Windows\System32\LogFiles\Sum\Svc.chk

Any obvious errors here?

Many thanks

D.

try this : REGEX=(?m)^Object\sName:.*(edb.chk|Svc.chk)

The dots before the filename extensions need to be escaped. Try this:

(?m)^Object Name:.*(edb\.chk|Svc\.chk)

Hello, many thanks for that - but it's still not matching I am afraid.
