New nightly out...

A new nightly out. Nothing major just a few fixes to the CheckFile related module. 

2009-02-26 MickeM
 * Changed fo missing files and such generate an error
 * Added option to return error messages to the client [CheckDisk] show_errors=1 (defauilt is off 0)
 * Added warning message ewhen numerical filters evaluate to zero (and are not 0)
 * Fixed major issue with date mathing in CheckFile* which was not working at all.

Note though that this new release is built with a new "kit" ie. new version of boost, openssl, and what not so things might be a bit more experimental then usual...

Welcome Opsview (Opsera)

Hello,

I would like to welcome Opsera as a Gold sponsor for the NSClient++ project.

In other news I have been mad busy at work and with Windows 7 installes so nothing in the ways of updates. But hopefully after the weekend.

Also I can say: "Windows 7?" I actually dont get the hype. What is "new" it is pretty much like "XP" so in that regard it is a lot better then Vista (which I hated) but I cant really say there is much of a reason to upgrade from XP?

Most of the "addons" I already had in the form of third party products...

Well, we shall see, maybe it will grow on me?

(still havent installed a US enligh spellchecker in Firefox so excuse my spelling errors :)

Network trafic!

I forgot to post that the nice people at netways have worked some magic which makes the site A LOT snappier!

The reason for the "slow down" is the 60+Gb/month traffic you all help generate. You can read some more on the netways blog over here  http://blog.netways.de/2010/02/10/nsclient-plus-speed/.

Welcome community!!! :P

Hello community!

Awesome to see someone actually helping out here :P Really really nice!

Also if there are any handy unix using people out there I will starting next week be doing a small (controlled) alpha of the up-coming 0.4.x branch which will (in addition to windows) also run on unix. The version is far from finished but it would be interesting to see how well it builds out there in the "big world" outside my Debian here at home.

The features currently supported in the 0.4.x branch is:

I would also really really like to get feedback on what people would like to see in the form of features and such. Especially on *nix where I am just now starting to thread lightly... Also feel free to let me know if I am stone crazy and should give upon this! :)

And again wicked big thanks to everyone who helps out and such on the forum/wiki/* here!!!
