127 * Fixed "broken password check" in NSClient listener
128
1292006-11-18 MickeM
130 + Added support for empty NRPE checking (i.e.. chec_nrpe without a -c argument)
131 * Added error message when detected language is missing from counters.defs
132 + Added Swedish locale to counters.defs (yes, I switched to Swedish XP on my computer :)

134 + Added CheckAllExcept to CheckDrive to check all except the specified drives.
135 * Fixed a display error in the various size functions (1000-1024 byte was displayed incorrectly)
136
1372006-10-05 MickeM
138 * Yayyy!!! (first fix in a looong while :)
139 * Fixed a W2k3 "bug" (actually just an incorrect error) but the:
140   "e .\PDHCollector.cpp(130) Failed to query performance counters..." is no more...
141 + Added option to NRPE/NSClient section to not-cache host names (for dyndns etc.)
142   NOTICE this is "not safe" really in so far as someone might hi-jack your DNS and quickly gain
143   access to your nagios box (probably only a theoretical problem but hey! :)
144   NOTICE this is "slow" since all hosts in the list are "looked up" each time you get a NRPE/NSClient
145   request it will be "slow" but I think it is not that much of a problem really.
146   NOTICE I don't have the possibility to test this so feel free to report if it works and if it doesn't.
147   Set cache_allowed_hosts=0 to disable host cache
148
1492006-04-04 MickeM
150 * Fixed a few more bugs to the INI/REG readers
151
1522006-04-02 MickeM
153 * Could all magicians stop trying to kill me?
154   *Please* i don't like to die!
155
1562006-03-31 MickeM
157 * Damn necromancers! stop 0wning my ass all the time!
158

160 + Added API for saving/reading settings
161 
1622006-03-28 MickeM
163 + Added REG/INI parsers
164 * *NOTICE* You need to add an option (use_file=1) to your nsc.ini file or new builds wont work.
165
1662006-03-25 MickeM
167 * Oblivion f*cking roxx!
168
1692006-03-02 MickeM
170 * Fixed bug in INI-file reader (memory leak)
171
1722006-03-01 MickeM
173 * Fixed bug in CheckFile (now dates work correctly)
174
1752006-02-26 MickeM
176 + Added syntax option to CheckFile (%filename%, %creation%, %access%, %write%, %size%).
177
1782006-02-25 MickeM
179 * Fixed Sections problem (now sections can be any size)
180 + Added bind_to_address option to both NRPE and NSClient section in the INI file.
181   Allows you to bind the listener to a specific IP address (only dotted number not host name).
182   This might break things as I had to do some internal rewrite of the Socket classes so be careful :)
183 * Disabled default-debug logging (as things are fairly stable, you can still enable it by using debug=1 in the NSC:ini file)
184 * "Fixed" socket backlog to use "max responsible value" as opposed to "10" if no value is specified.
185 + Added option socket_back_log to both NRPE and NSClient section that allows you to tweak the "back-log" of incoming connections to keep.
186   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.
187   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.
188 - 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.
189 * Moved listpdh and debugpdh into the CheckSystem module
190 * Removed PDH dependencies from "core exe" means you can run NSClient++ without PDH (though you cant use the CheckSystem module)
191 
1922006-02-2? MickeM
193 + Added new Interface for Modules (NSCommandLineExec that allows modules to execute things give from command line.
194   Syntax is NSClient++ <module name> <command> [arguments] and if a module doesn't support this it is simply ignored.
195 + Added new install/uninstall command to SystemTray module:
196   NSClient++.exe SystemTray install
197   NSClient++.exe SystemTray uninstall
198   That will install/uninstall the system tray module this sets the "Allow Service to Interact with Desktop" flag for the service.
199 * 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).
200 * Fixed so checkProcess isn't case sensitive.
201 * Added (not finished) syntax option to event log checker to format the outputted data
202
2032006-02-12 MickeM
204 + Added support for host name resolve to allowed_hosts
205
2062006-02-08 MickeM
207 ! Fixed filter-eventID in EventLog module (now works for all IDs regardless of severity state)
208 + Added new filters to EventLog (filter-severity that can filter based on event severity success, error, warning, informational)
209
2102006-02-07 MickeM
211 + Added new filter option to eventlog filter-eventID
212 + Added new operator to all numeric filters in:number,number,... etc. (for instance filter-eventID=in:123,456,789 to check for lists.
213
2142006-02-05 MickeM
215 + Added CheckFile check command
216   This new command (in development) will allow various file checks such as age, size, date, etc on single or multiple files.
217 + Added FILEAGE support to NSClient
218 + Started to convert the web page to WIKI
219 
2202006-01-21 MickeM
221 + Added WMI Check module (early alpha)
222   This is an extremely early alpha more to see if there is an interest and how to progress with it.
223   To use the WMI module enable the WMICheck.dll (nsc.ini) and then run the following check:
224   CheckWMI MaxWarn=10 MaxCrit=15 "Query:load=Select LoadPercentage from win32_Processor"
225   The Max* are as every other check and sets limits.
226   The Query works similarly to other check commands i.e.. Query:<name>=<WMI query>
227   So any other WMI query should work (notice this is experimental and not stable and has virtually
228   no error handling so it is likely to crash nsclient if you ask anything "non working".)
229   I would *really* *really* like to get feedback on how to expand this concept to work better so feel free to come with feedback.
230  * Fixed NT4 /install (should work now!)
231
2322006-01-02 MickeM
233 * Fixed ChangeServiceConfig2 on NT4
234 + Added support for more then 4GB memory (8GB?)
235   Since I don't have this much memory this needs to be verified...
236 * Fixed syntax of performance data
237
2382005-09-24 MickeM
239 * Fixed memory size bug (free and used were swapped)
240
2412005-09-20 MickeM
242 + Added option to debug all PDH counters /debugpdh
243
2442005-09-17 MickeM
245 + Added support for checking service by display name
246
2472005-09-03 MickeM
248 * First off, sorry for lack of updates, but was on vacation :)
249 + Added ShowAll=long to CPULoad
250 + Added several new types to checkMem (type=paged, type=physical, type=page, type=virtual)
251
2522005-07-31 MickeM
253 + /install now sets the service to autostart
254 * Did some cleanup of minor code sections
255 * (done before but not reported i think) /listpdh option added to list all PDH counters (nsclient++ /listpdh)
256 + Added service description
257 * Event log reworked (again) this time I hope it is better (and even useful, but syntax has changed)
258
2592005-07-26 MickeM
260 + Added support for ShowAll=long (to show long and short info, only applies to some areas, but available everywhere)
261 + Extended Drive and memory check syntax to facilitate both Free and Used space checks: MaxWarnFree / MaxWarnUsed etc)
262
2632005-07-19 MickeM
264 * Changed thread API to use _creatthreadex as opposed to _creatthread (works better now!)
265 * Fixed UNKNOWN return code (was 4 should have been 3)
266
2672005-07-16 MickeM
268 * Fixed drive checks from NSClient
269
2702005-07-11 MickeM
