    When I've validated robots.txt on webmaster tool, it give me error about the *, This is file contents:

    User-agent: Mediapartners-Google*
    Disallow:

    User-agent: *
    Disallow: /_private

    User-agent: *
    Disallow: /indexold.htm

    So, what is the problem here?
    Validator says also that sitemap is not specifed. How can I specify the sitemap here?
    Note: I am not expert in editing robots.txt, so give me explained replies please.
