[hobbit] Question about Disk RULE

[Kauffman, Tom]

This is that difference between the perl regexp parsing and the shell
parsing we're used to - you want '.*' (dot asterisk) where you have just
'*'. IIRC, in perl, that means 'match any charcter (the dot)' followed
by 'match any number of the previous character (the asterisk)'.

Ok

I think it is something with my wildcard. 

 

When I added the "DISK /g05 IGNORE" line it did ignore /g05.

But I don't want to have to add every single filesystem.  So  what is
wrong with my wildcard?

 

        DISK %^/i.*/ 100 100

        DISK %^/j.*/ 100 100

        DISK %^/g.*/ IGNORE
