Antwort: Regular Expression Expansion

[Janet Post]

Just a thought here...but the [a-z] will only match against lowercase
characters.  Is that the behaviour you wanted?

Seems as if it is not clear, which flavor of Regex is suported in
Nagios, I had a similar problem, and could not find a clear
documentation about the regex-suport in Nagios yet. 

F.e. 
[sw][0-9]{3}[a-z]{2,124}\.company\.net 
This should match any string starting with either s or w, followed by
exactly 3 digits and a resonable number of characters plus the domain
suffix. 
But it did not work. May be I am missing some backslashes? 

Please, can anyone point us to the right place? 

TIA, Ingo.
