Thanks again, you have been a great help. I always learn something new when I come here.

One last thing, shouldn't I have a slash after the match character?

push @conf, $1 if m[^SSLOGGER FILE\s+=\s+(.*?)/$]; #before
push @conf, $1 if m/[^SSLOGGER FILE\s+=\s+(.*?)/$]; #after

I'm using VIM for windows and it doesn't like that string for some reason
