Reece, thank you for reporting this.

John, the problem appears to be at line 2880 in ncidd.c. It's missing a space before the double-dash:

if (regex) strcat(opt, "--regex");

Thanks Tod, you were correct. The problem is a missing space in ncidd.c line 2880. It should be:

if (regex) strcat(opt, " --regex");

The fix will be in NCID v1.4.

Reece, if you make the above change, and recompile ncidd, you can replace the defective one. Not sure which OS you are using. If ncidd is in /usr/sbin:

cd ncid/server
make local prefix=/usr prefix2=
sudo cp ncidd /usr/sbin/.

If ncidd is in /usr/local/sbin, the make in ncid/server is simpler:

cd ncid/server
make local
sudo cp ncidd /usr/local/sbin/.

Fix given for source and will be in NCID release 1.4
