It sounds silly but I figured out the issue.
1. It works better if there is a rule per line you want to find.
2. in the "config end" box there needs to be a CRLF at the end.
All I did was go into the rule and hit enter after the "!". Save, UpdateAll, and presto all my issues show up. I click on the REd X icon and I get a list of ports and lines that are in violation. I cant believe how much time I spent when I just needed to hit ENTER.... Grrr! Thanks!
