Wildcards in hostgroup definitions

[olourkin-nagios at yahoo.com]

Hi all -

Got a mystery regarding the use of regex matching that I hope someone on the 
listserv might clear.  We have the appropriate config options to use regex, and 
it works just fine for the members directive - ie. "members    .*" expands just 
as we'd expect.  

But "hostgroup_members    .*" returns an error along the lines of "Could not 
find member group '.*' specified in hostgroup....", leading us to believe that 
Nagios is simply ignoring regex matching for the hostgroup_members directive. 
 Anyone know if we're off our rockers, or if Nagios really does handle things 
this way?

Thanks,
Erik Larkin
