462 + Added new system tray handlig (via TS so FUS should work with it)
463 + Added new option [System] / shared_session=0 (or 1) to enable / disable the new shared memory framework (it is for now disabled by default)
464   If you want to try this remember to change that option but also beware! it is dagerous and not finnished and and also there is as of now no security at all.
465
4662008-08-09 MickeM

535
5362008-05-14 MickeM
537 * Fixed memoryleak in the service checker.
538     I am really sorry I usualy write better code then this.
539
5402008-05-11 MickeM
541 * BREAKING CHANGE! -- Changed PDH options to a more uniform design:
542     auto_detect_pdh and dont_use_pdh_index has been removed and instead there is a new method option that takes various values.
543
5442008-04-03 MickeM
545 * Moved COM init to "core" (from WMI module)
546 + Added new Check command: CheckTaskSched Use like so:

551   New option: cmdLine will toggle so full command lines are used instead of just process names.
552 + Added regular expression matching to process checks
553   New option: match=regexp (match=strings is the default and "old" way)
554 + Added substring matching to process checks
555   New option: match=substr (match=strings is the default and "old" way)
556   This is *NOT* case blind so might be hard to use, plan to add case blindness to it in the future.
557 : Sample command: check_nt ... -v PROCSTATE -l cmdLine,match=regexp,.*exp.* -d SHOWALL
558 * Ohh yeah... it is 2008 this year... not 2007, fixed a few entries in the change log :)
559 - BREAKING CHANGE! -- Removed TOOLHELPER API as PSAPI is simpler and toolhelp is really only useful on w9x (which I don't officially support)
560
5612008-03-20 MickeM
562 + Added host-lookupos for NSCA server (#149)
563 + Added option (cache_hostname=1|0) to cache the NSCA host name (Ie. only lookup once)

574 ! 0.3.1 Released
575
5762008-03-08 MickeM
577 * Changed so log is now in Unicode format
578   Hopefully this will make it simpler to diagnose PDH issues in "strange locales".
579   If anyone hates this let me know and I will add an option to use "old ansi log".
580 * Fixed so the console is logged as ANSI (properly) and all Unicode's are discarded.
581   This means "strangeness" in Unicode and non-us-ascii chars on the console,
582    so for details refer to the log-file which is proper Unicode.
583 + Since log module is loaded "after" the client has booted I added a "hello" message that prints the current version
584    (if you find this annoying let me know, I will make it optional :)
585 * Fixed some issues in the registry handling
586
5872008-03-06 MickeM
588 * Fixed silly ordering bug with the <> syntax.
589
5902008-03-05 MickeM
591 + Added debug to new section [Eventlog], when enabled it will (log) what lines matched what, this is a pretty big performance overhead so don't run with this one.
592 + Added syntax to new section [Eventlog] used as a shorthand for the syntax to use as "default" (when no syntax=... option is given)
593 * Fixed an issue with eventlog and . matching.
594 + Added shorthand ! for != in "all" numeric filters (eventlog)
595 + Added <> (same as ! and !=) as NRPE breaks the use of ! (in "all" numeric filters (eventlog))
596   Try using: filter-eventType=<>warning to remove everything that is not a warning
597 * Fixed two spelling mistakes in the SysTray module.
598 * Fixed 64-bit issues with installer
599 * Fixed so installer uninstalls/installs the service

603 
6042008-02-22 MickeM
605 * Fixed issues in the NRPE module (now returns the correct status)
606 + Added a lot of "error log" for when the packet size in NRPEListener is not correct
607    (might make it simpler to diagnose problems)
608
6092008-02-20 MickeM
610 + Added new module NRPEClient that can act as a NRPE client, might be useful for testing things and
611   eventually for relaying events.
612   Usage: nsclient++ -noboot NRPEClient -H 192.168.0.1 -p 5666 -c check_something -a foo bar
613   This is an early concept so don't expect much...
614 * Fixed a bug in NSCA module (now it works again :)
615 + Added a command wrapper for the NRPECLient module so now it can act as a check command.
616   (No argument handling yet though), For a sample check out the [NRPE Client Handlers] section in NSC.ini
617
6182008-02-19 MickeM
619 + Fixed a buffer overflow in the NRPE socket handling.
620 
6212008-02-18 MickeM
622 + Added proper output handling to process subsystem (now you can execute programs that return "much" data.
623 + Added select support for SSL_write (now you can send "any amount of data" to the (SSL) socket.
624   Since check_nrpe doesn't do this it wont work in that end, but still...
625
6262008-02-16 MickeM
627 + Re factored ExternalCommand handling so NRPE and new module does the same thing.
628
6292008-02-14 MickeM
630 + Added so commands starting in host_ (NSCA Handlers) are sent as host-commands

632
6332008-02-13 MickeM
634 + Added string_length to [Settings] as well (used internally) for all "injected" buffers.
635 * Fixed issue with scripts result truncated after 1024 chars
636    (now they return "all" output and thus you can use the NRPE settings I added yesterday :)
637 + Added hostname setting to [NSCA] section (must have been  when I did not add it before)
638 + Added to NSCA truncates output when to long.
639
6402008-02-12 MickeM
641 + Added new option for the [NRPE] section string_length which is the length of the NRPE strings
642   (notice you need to recompile the check_nrpe to match this value)
643 * Improved exception handling in the PDH collector (hopefully less deadlocks)
644
6452008-02-11 MickeM
646 + Added encryption support for NSCA module (about half of the algorithms are available,
647     if someone wants to use one not available let me know, and I will try to add it)
648
6492008-02-09 MickeM
650 + New module CheckExternalScripts to handle 1, external script (similar to the old NRPE but in its own module)
651   - Can Check batch/vbs/programs/*
652   - Works with NSCA module (if you don't want to have NRPE at the same time)
653   - Simpler syntax (discarded old and added new section for alias)
654   - Started to add "sample alias" to ease initial setup and give some nice ideas (please provide me with feedback on them)
655
6562008-02-08 MickeM
657 + Added some more default catch handlers (on the "core" side of plugin-calls).
658

678
6792008-02-02 MickeM
680 * Might have fixed the "missing eventlog messages" problem.
681 + Added %count% parameter to syntax which (when used with unique) will display the number of hits for each message displayed.
682
6832008-01-27 MickeM
684 * Fixed a memory-leak in format_time
685 * Fixed so time/date is displayed in "local time" (not UTC) for the eventlog check
686 + Added %message% to eventlog check. Will display the "proper formated eventlog message" as in the eventlog viewer.
687   For this to work you need to have the descriptions flag set
688   In short: /nrpe -H 192.168.0.147 -c checkEventLog -a truncate=1024 "syntax=%generated%: %message%" descriptions=true file=System MaxWarn=1 MaxCrit=1 filter+eventType==error filter+generated=\<12h filter=new filter=all filter=in
689 + Added option "unique" to CheckEventLog If this is present only unique errors will be returned.
690   The uniqueness is defined by event-log, event-source, event-id and event-category.
691
6922007-12-16 MickeM
693 + A lot of new features in the LUA module only "arguments" missing (as well as exposing more of the API)

701
7022007-12-09 MickeM
703 + Added a check if the service is started when running with /test so you get a warning
704 + Improved the socket thread with:
705    * a default-catch
706    * If the socket fails to start we still wait for it to shut down (no error message)
707 + Added first version of the NSCA agent (NSCAgent.dll)
708   (no encryption support as of yet, but will come)

727    append: .<date string> if you want to use a "custom date" like so: ... -v FILEAGE -l c:\\windows,Date: %Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S" -w 5 -c 6 ...
728    Only the above listed %<char> works, and default to 0 so might not be to pretty but works...

745     CheckWMIValue -a "Query=select Caption, ThreadCount from Win32_Process" MaxWarn=50 MaxCrit=100 Check:threads=ThreadCount AliasCol=Caption
746    will give you: "System threads: 98 > warning, svchost.exe threads: 87 > warning"

810 * Fixed the "check memory" issues for real this time.
811 * Fixed problem with : in counter names #50 (anything starts with \ is considered a counter so if you use aliases with \ this will break things for you.

828
8292007-02-25 MickeM

853 * Fixed "broken password check" in NSClient listener
854
8552006-11-18 MickeM
856 + Added support for empty NRPE checking (i.e.. chec_nrpe without a -c argument)
857 * Added error message when detected language is missing from counters.defs
858 + Added Swedish locale to counters.defs (yes, I switched to Swedish XP on my computer :)
859 * Fixed : (and possibly other problems) in counters when checking from check_nt (via NSCLient protocol)
860 + Added CheckAllExcept to CheckDrive to check all except the specified drives.
861 * Fixed a display error in the various size functions (1000-1024 byte was displayed incorrectly)
862
8632006-10-05 MickeM
864 * Yayyy!!! (first fix in a looong while :)
865 * Fixed a W2k3 "bug" (actually just an incorrect error) but the:
866   "e .\PDHCollector.cpp(130) Failed to query performance counters..." is no more...
867 + Added option to NRPE/NSClient section to not-cache host names (for dyndns etc.)
868   NOTICE this is "not safe" really in so far as someone might hi-jack your DNS and quickly gain
869   access to your nagios box (probably only a theoretical problem but hey! :)
870   NOTICE this is "slow" since all hosts in the list are "looked up" each time you get a NRPE/NSClient
871   request it will be "slow" but I think it is not that much of a problem really.
872   NOTICE I don't have the possibility to test this so feel free to report if it works and if it doesn't.
873   Set cache_allowed_hosts=0 to disable host cache
874
8752006-04-04 MickeM
876 * Fixed a few more bugs to the INI/REG readers
877
8782006-04-02 MickeM

884 
8852006-03-29 MickeM
886 + Added API for saving/reading settings
887 
8882006-03-28 MickeM
889 + Added REG/INI parsers
890 * *NOTICE* You need to add an option (use_file=1) to your nsc.ini file or new builds wont work.
891
8922006-03-25 MickeM
893 * Oblivion f*cking roxx!
894
8952006-03-02 MickeM
896 * Fixed bug in INI-file reader (memory leak)
897
8982006-03-01 MickeM
899 * Fixed bug in CheckFile (now dates work correctly)
900
9012006-02-26 MickeM
902 + Added syntax option to CheckFile (%filename%, %creation%, %access%, %write%, %size%).
903
9042006-02-25 MickeM
905 * Fixed Sections problem (now sections can be any size)
906 + Added bind_to_address option to both NRPE and NSClient section in the INI file.
907   Allows you to bind the listener to a specific IP address (only dotted number not host name).
908   This might break things as I had to do some internal rewrite of the Socket classes so be careful :)
909 * Disabled default-debug logging (as things are fairly stable, you can still enable it by using debug=1 in the NSC:ini file)
910 * "Fixed" socket backlog to use "max responsible value" as opposed to "10" if no value is specified.
911 + Added option socket_back_log to both NRPE and NSClient section that allows you to tweak the "back-log" of incoming connections to keep.
912   This is an advanced setting and should not be used. If you get "connection refused" when running many client this might be something you want to tweak though.
913   And if you then start getting "Socket timeout" you might wanna tweak the timeout value as well because larger value here means it takes "longer" to process a socket.
914 - I have looked into the event log problem and dates seem to work here so if anyone still have problems (use the syntax option to debug) let me know.
915 * Moved listpdh and debugpdh into the CheckSystem module
916 * Removed PDH dependencies from "core exe" means you can run NSClient++ without PDH (though you cant use the CheckSystem module)
917 
9182006-02-2? MickeM
919 + Added new Interface for Modules (NSCommandLineExec that allows modules to execute things give from command line.
920   Syntax is NSClient++ <module name> <command> [arguments] and if a module doesn't support this it is simply ignored.
921 + Added new install/uninstall command to SystemTray module:
922   NSClient++.exe SystemTray install
923   NSClient++.exe SystemTray uninstall
924   That will install/uninstall the system tray module this sets the "Allow Service to Interact with Desktop" flag for the service.
925 * Removed the "Allow Service to Interact with Desktop" flag from the /install option so that it no longer defaults to on (see commands to set this above).
926 * Fixed so checkProcess isn't case sensitive.
927 * Added (not finished) syntax option to event log checker to format the outputted data
928
9292006-02-12 MickeM
930 + Added support for host name resolve to allowed_hosts
931
9322006-02-08 MickeM
933 ! Fixed filter-eventID in EventLog module (now works for all IDs regardless of severity state)
934 + Added new filters to EventLog (filter-severity that can filter based on event severity success, error, warning, informational)
935
9362006-02-07 MickeM
937 + Added new filter option to eventlog filter-eventID
938 + Added new operator to all numeric filters in:number,number,... etc. (for instance filter-eventID=in:123,456,789 to check for lists.
939
9402006-02-05 MickeM
941 + Added CheckFile check command
942   This new command (in development) will allow various file checks such as age, size, date, etc on single or multiple files.
943 + Added FILEAGE support to NSClient
944 + Started to convert the web page to WIKI
945 
9462006-01-21 MickeM
947 + Added WMI Check module (early alpha)
948   This is an extremely early alpha more to see if there is an interest and how to progress with it.
949   To use the WMI module enable the WMICheck.dll (nsc.ini) and then run the following check:
950   CheckWMI MaxWarn=10 MaxCrit=15 "Query:load=Select LoadPercentage from win32_Processor"
951   The Max* are as every other check and sets limits.
952   The Query works similarly to other check commands i.e.. Query:<name>=<WMI query>
953   So any other WMI query should work (notice this is experimental and not stable and has virtually
954   no error handling so it is likely to crash nsclient if you ask anything "non working".)
955   I would *really* *really* like to get feedback on how to expand this concept to work better so feel free to come with feedback.
956  * Fixed NT4 /install (should work now!)
957
9582006-01-02 MickeM
959 * Fixed ChangeServiceConfig2 on NT4
960 + Added support for more then 4GB memory (8GB?)
961   Since I don't have this much memory this needs to be verified...
962 * Fixed syntax of performance data
963
9642005-09-24 MickeM
965 * Fixed memory size bug (free and used were swapped)
966
9672005-09-20 MickeM

969
9702005-09-17 MickeM

977
9782005-07-31 MickeM
979 + /install now sets the service to autostart
980 * Did some cleanup of minor code sections
981 * (done before but not reported i think) /listpdh option added to list all PDH counters (nsclient++ /listpdh)
982 + Added service description
983 * Event log reworked (again) this time I hope it is better (and even useful, but syntax has changed)
984
9852005-07-26 MickeM
986 + Added support for ShowAll=long (to show long and short info, only applies to some areas, but available everywhere)
987 + Extended Drive and memory check syntax to facilitate both Free and Used space checks: MaxWarnFree / MaxWarnUsed etc)
988
9892005-07-19 MickeM
990 * Changed thread API to use _creatthreadex as opposed to _creatthread (works better now!)
991 * Fixed UNKNOWN return code (was 4 should have been 3)
992
9932005-07-16 MickeM
994 * Fixed drive checks from NSClient
995
9962005-07-11 MickeM
