*HOSTINCLUDE .mydomain.com**

What is the difference between the following two commands?

HOSTINCLUDE *.mydomain.com

vs

HOSTINCLUDE *.mydomain.com*

What does the extra * at the end of the second command mean?

*Re: HOSTINCLUDE .mydomain.com** [In reply to]

The first will match any hosts that end in that pattern. The latter will
match any hosts that contain that pattern.

So example.mydomain.com matches both, but example.mydomain.com.au only
matches the seconds.
