A bit of summer cleaning (new nightly with some fixes).
I have closed a bunch of issues and gone through them and fixed some of them. I shall see if I cant do the same tomorrow and then release the long overdue 0.3.3. If you have an issue you want fixed in that release get in touch with me tomorrow and I shall see what I can do. (I am mainly looking at fixing various 64-bit/installer issues for tomorrow so if there is anything else let me know)
2008-07-01 MickeM + Added new option (namespace) to CheckWMI and CheckWMIValue use like so: CheckWMI namespace=root\\cimv2 MaxCrit=3 MinWarn=1 "Query:load=Select * from win32_Processor" 2008-06-30 MickeM * Fixed issue with CheckFile and performance data ( #156 ) + Added option (InvalidStatus) to CheckCounter to allow other then UNKNOWN return state when counters are missing ( #167 ). *NOTICE* this is all reasons (so if the counter is missing or some such the same will happen not just when the instance is missing) Message will reflect reason. * Fixed issue in the arraybuffer (one of the split functions had a problem with multiple chars of the same) ( #190 )
The nightly is named: NSClient++-Win32-20080701 to download click the "Download" tab above.

New nightly
Fixes an issue with the NRPEClient.
2008-06-18 MickeM * Fixed an issue in regards to reading the return packet in the in the NRPEClient (now it works). Before only the first 1024 bytes were used.
New w32 nightly up! (not as broken as 0.3.2 I hope)
Sorry everyone for the rather sorry 0.3.2 last month I have (due to my water leak) not been able to spend as much time as I wanted on NSClient++ last month so I haven't been able to fix a new version till now.
New nightly (NSClient++-Win32-20080614-1856.*) has the mem-leak fix as well as all the other post 0.3.1 updates such as regexp support and working check-services and such. I shall add some patches and see if there are any other minor things I can fix up and then try to ship a 0.3.3 during the next week. Hopefully my water leak will be sorted the coming week and then I shall also start shipping nightlies of the new 0.4.x branch wich some pretty cool new features :)
Highlights (since 0.3.1):
- New Task-schedule checker (let me know what you think of it it is a just an idea)
- Memory leak fix!!!
- command line option for check process
- reg-exp support for check-process
- improvments and such here and there

Full changelog here:
2008-06-14 MickeM
* Fixed error message from external commands (better reporting now)
2008-05-14 MickeM
* Fixed memoryleak in the service checker.
I am really sorry I usualy write better code then this.
2008-04-03 MickeM
* Moved COM init to "core" (from WMI module)
+ Added new Check command: CheckTaskSched Use like so:
CheckTaskSched +filter-exit-code==1 ShowAll MaxWarn=1 MaxCrit=1
2008-03-21 MickeM
+ Added command line support for process checks
New option: cmdLine will toggle so full command lines are used instead of just process names.
+ Added regular expression matching to process checks
New option: match=regexp (match=strings is the default and "old" way)
+ Added substring matching to process checks
New option: match=substr (match=strings is the default and "old" way)
This is *NOT* case blind so might be hard to use, plan to add case blindness to it in the future.
: Sample command: check_nt ... -v PROCSTATE -l cmdLine,match=regexp,.*exp.* -d SHOWALL
* Ohh yeah... it is 2008 this year... not 2007, fixed a few entries in the :)
- BREAKING CHANGE! -- Removed TOOLHELPER API as PSAPI is simpler and toolhelp is really only useful on w9x (which I don't officially support)
2008-03-20 MickeM
+ Added host-lookupos for NSCA server (#149)
+ Added option (cache_hostname=1|0) to cache the NSCA host name (Ie. only lookup once)
* Fixed service check: check_nt -v SERVICESTATE -l CheckAll so it works as advertised (#150)
* Fixed issue with check_nt MEMUSE/CPULOAD/UPTIME if something is "broken" they will now return an error instead of "0". (#134)
Added option debug_skip_data_collection to simulate this (just for kicks)
2008-03-18 MickeM
* Added some more error messages to the NSCA module
* Added support for arguments to LUA module.
syntax: function debug (command, args) -- args is a table with all arguments
Nagios Nordic Meet!
Just wanted to thank OP5 for arranging and inviting me to Nagios Nordic Meet ( http://www.nagiosnordicmeet.wmr.se/). A really amazing event with a lot of interesting speakers as well as a lot very very of nice participants from around the world. It was really overwhelming to see that there are so many users of NSClient++ out there and a big extra thank you to all of you! I would also take the opportunity to thank everyone who I bumped into and came with nice feedback and ideas for NSClient++. I shall post a few snapshots from the event when I am at home again (tomorrow) and also try to summarize some of the ideas that you might expect in NSClient++ in the future.
