Dear logcheck team, I noticed that the rules that use the expression {,3} are not parsed correctly by logcheck, but ARE ok with egrep. E.g. to check for an ip-quad I can use the following in egrep but not in logcheck: [0-9]{,3}\.[0-9]{,3}\.[0-9]{,3}\.[0-9]{,3} I appologize in advance, if I was doing something wrong.
