How to filter out unwanted groups in LDAP synch job?

Question

I have setup a LDAP server config object in Webtop 6.5 SP1.

I have used the search builder to built the following to filter out any group start with the com.IT.helpdesk.

the constructed filter is as shown below:

[(&(objectclass=group)(!(cn=*com.IT.helpdesk.)))]

but when I checked the log, all the groups starting com.IT.helpdesk (such as com.IT.helpdesk1, com.IT.helpdesk2, ....) are still being imported.

is the filtering working? should the filter look something like [(&(objectclass=group)(!(cn=com.IT.helpdesk.*)))] where the * is at the end?

thanks.
