89 * Fixed "broken password check" in NSClient listener
90
912006-11-18 MickeM
92 + Added support for empty NRPE checking (i.e.. chec_nrpe without a -c argument)
93 * Added error message when detected language is missing from counters.defs
94 + Added Swedish locale to counters.defs (yes, I switched to Swedish XP on my computer :)

96 + Added CheckAllExcept to CheckDrive to check all except the specified drives.
97 * Fixed a display error in the various size functions (1000-1024 byte was displayed incorrectly)
98
992006-10-05 MickeM
100 * Yayyy!!! (first fix in a looong while :)
101 * Fixed a W2k3 "bug" (actually just an incorrect error) but the:
102   "e .\PDHCollector.cpp(130) Failed to query performance counters..." is no more...
103 + Added option to NRPE/NSClient section to not-cache host names (for dyndns etc.)
104   NOTICE this is "not safe" really in so far as someone might hi-jack your DNS and quickly gain
105   access to your nagios box (probably only a theoretical problem but hey! :)
106   NOTICE this is "slow" since all hosts in the list are "looked up" each time you get a NRPE/NSClient
107   request it will be "slow" but I think it is not that much of a problem really.
108   NOTICE I don't have the possibility to test this so feel free to report if it works and if it doesn't.
109   Set cache_allowed_hosts=0 to disable host cache
110
1112006-04-04 MickeM
112 * Fixed a few more bugs to the INI/REG readers
113
1142006-04-02 MickeM
115 * Could all magicians stop trying to kill me?
116   *Please* i don't like to die!
117
1182006-03-31 MickeM
119 * Damn necromancers! stop 0wning my ass all the time!
120 
1212006-03-29 MickeM
122 + Added API for saving/reading settings
123 
1242006-03-28 MickeM
125 + Added REG/INI parsers
126 * *NOTICE* You need to add an option (use_file=1) to your nsc.ini file or new builds wont work.
127
1282006-03-25 MickeM
129 * Oblivion f*cking roxx!
130
1312006-03-02 MickeM
132 * Fixed bug in INI-file reader (memory leak)
133
1342006-03-01 MickeM
135 * Fixed bug in CheckFile (now dates work correctly)
136
1372006-02-26 MickeM
138 + Added syntax option to CheckFile (%filename%, %creation%, %access%, %write%, %size%).
139
1402006-02-25 MickeM
141 * Fixed Sections problem (now sections can be any size)
142 + Added bind_to_address option to both NRPE and NSClient section in the INI file.
143   Allows you to bind the listener to a specific IP address (only dotted number not host name).
144   This might break things as I had to do some internal rewrite of the Socket classes so be careful :)
145 * Disabled default-debug logging (as things are fairly stable, you can still enable it by using debug=1 in the NSC:ini file)
146 * "Fixed" socket backlog to use "max responsible value" as opposed to "10" if no value is specified.
147 + Added option socket_back_log to both NRPE and NSClient section that allows you to tweak the "back-log" of incoming connections to keep.
148   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.
149   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.
150 - 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.
151 * Moved listpdh and debugpdh into the CheckSystem module
152 * Removed PDH dependencies from "core exe" means you can run NSClient++ without PDH (though you cant use the CheckSystem module)
153 
1542006-02-2? MickeM
155 + Added new Interface for Modules (NSCommandLineExec that allows modules to execute things give from command line.
156   Syntax is NSClient++ <module name> <command> [arguments] and if a module doesn't support this it is simply ignored.
157 + Added new install/uninstall command to SystemTray module:
158   NSClient++.exe SystemTray install
159   NSClient++.exe SystemTray uninstall
160   That will install/uninstall the system tray module this sets the "Allow Service to Interact with Desktop" flag for the service.
161 * 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).
162 * Fixed so checkProcess isn't case sensitive.
163 * Added (not finished) syntax option to event log checker to format the outputted data
164
1652006-02-12 MickeM
166 + Added support for host name resolve to allowed_hosts
167
1682006-02-08 MickeM
169 ! Fixed filter-eventID in EventLog module (now works for all IDs regardless of severity state)
170 + Added new filters to EventLog (filter-severity that can filter based on event severity success, error, warning, informational)
171
1722006-02-07 MickeM
173 + Added new filter option to eventlog filter-eventID
174 + Added new operator to all numeric filters in:number,number,... etc. (for instance filter-eventID=in:123,456,789 to check for lists.
175
1762006-02-05 MickeM
177 + Added CheckFile check command
178   This new command (in development) will allow various file checks such as age, size, date, etc on single or multiple files.
179 + Added FILEAGE support to NSClient
180 + Started to convert the web page to WIKI
181 
1822006-01-21 MickeM
183 + Added WMI Check module (early alpha)
184   This is an extremely early alpha more to see if there is an interest and how to progress with it.
185   To use the WMI module enable the WMICheck.dll (nsc.ini) and then run the following check:
186   CheckWMI MaxWarn=10 MaxCrit=15 "Query:load=Select LoadPercentage from win32_Processor"
187   The Max* are as every other check and sets limits.
188   The Query works similarly to other check commands i.e.. Query:<name>=<WMI query>
189   So any other WMI query should work (notice this is experimental and not stable and has virtually
190   no error handling so it is likely to crash nsclient if you ask anything "non working".)
191   I would *really* *really* like to get feedback on how to expand this concept to work better so feel free to come with feedback.
192  * Fixed NT4 /install (should work now!)
193
1942006-01-02 MickeM
195 * Fixed ChangeServiceConfig2 on NT4
196 + Added support for more then 4GB memory (8GB?)

198 * Fixed syntax of performance data
199
2002005-09-24 MickeM
201 * Fixed memory size bug (free and used were swapped)
202

213

215 + /install now sets the service to autostart
216 * Did some cleanup of minor code sections
217 * (done before but not reported i think) /listpdh option added to list all PDH counters (nsclient++ /listpdh)
218 + Added service description
219 * Event log reworked (again) this time I hope it is better (and even useful, but syntax has changed)
220
2212005-07-26 MickeM
222 + Added support for ShowAll=long (to show long and short info, only applies to some areas, but available everywhere)
223 + Extended Drive and memory check syntax to facilitate both Free and Used space checks: MaxWarnFree / MaxWarnUsed etc)
224
2252005-07-19 MickeM
226 * Changed thread API to use _creatthreadex as opposed to _creatthread (works better now!)

228
2292005-07-16 MickeM
230 * Fixed drive checks from NSClient
231
2322005-07-11 MickeM
