Hi Rainer, I have a question about the new conditions. The following gives the desired result, where hosts not named "Satellite" and not Win2k receive that package. <condition> <check type="logical" condition="not"> <check type="host" condition="hostname" value="SATELLITE"/> </check> <check type="logical" condition="not"> <check type="host" condition="os" value="5\.0\.\d{4}"/> </check> </condition> Now I think that the following simpler construct should give the same result, but it does not. <condition> <check type="logical" condition="not"> <check type="host" condition="hostname" value="SATELLITE"/> <check type="host" condition="os" value="5\.0\.\d{4}"/> </check> </condition> What do you think? --- Stefan |
