457
4582008-09-06 MickeM
459 * Improved error reporting in the eventlogchecker
460 * *BREAKING CHANGE* filter=new is now the default so unless you use the new filtering you need to specify filter=old instead!

476 + Added new system tray handlig (via TS so FUS should work with it)
477 + Added new option [System] / shared_session=0 (or 1) to enable / disable the new shared memory framework (it is for now disabled by default)
478   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.
479
4802008-08-09 MickeM

549
5502008-05-14 MickeM
551 * Fixed memoryleak in the service checker.
552     I am really sorry I usualy write better code then this.
553
5542008-05-11 MickeM
555 * BREAKING CHANGE! -- Changed PDH options to a more uniform design:
556     auto_detect_pdh and dont_use_pdh_index has been removed and instead there is a new method option that takes various values.
557
5582008-04-03 MickeM
559 * Moved COM init to "core" (from WMI module)
560 + Added new Check command: CheckTaskSched Use like so:

565   New option: cmdLine will toggle so full command lines are used instead of just process names.
566 + Added regular expression matching to process checks
567   New option: match=regexp (match=strings is the default and "old" way)
568 + Added substring matching to process checks
569   New option: match=substr (match=strings is the default and "old" way)
570   This is *NOT* case blind so might be hard to use, plan to add case blindness to it in the future.
571 : Sample command: check_nt ... -v PROCSTATE -l cmdLine,match=regexp,.*exp.* -d SHOWALL
572 * Ohh yeah... it is 2008 this year... not 2007, fixed a few entries in the change log :)
573 - BREAKING CHANGE! -- Removed TOOLHELPER API as PSAPI is simpler and toolhelp is really only useful on w9x (which I don't officially support)
574
5752008-03-20 MickeM
576 + Added host-lookupos for NSCA server (#149)
577 + Added option (cache_hostname=1|0) to cache the NSCA host name (Ie. only lookup once)

588 ! 0.3.1 Released
589
5902008-03-08 MickeM
591 * Changed so log is now in Unicode format
592   Hopefully this will make it simpler to diagnose PDH issues in "strange locales".
593   If anyone hates this let me know and I will add an option to use "old ansi log".
594 * Fixed so the console is logged as ANSI (properly) and all Unicode's are discarded.
595   This means "strangeness" in Unicode and non-us-ascii chars on the console,
596    so for details refer to the log-file which is proper Unicode.
597 + Since log module is loaded "after" the client has booted I added a "hello" message that prints the current version
598    (if you find this annoying let me know, I will make it optional :)
599 * Fixed some issues in the registry handling
600
6012008-03-06 MickeM
602 * Fixed silly ordering bug with the <> syntax.
603
6042008-03-05 MickeM
605 + 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.
606 + Added syntax to new section [Eventlog] used as a shorthand for the syntax to use as "default" (when no syntax=... option is given)
607 * Fixed an issue with eventlog and . matching.
608 + Added shorthand ! for != in "all" numeric filters (eventlog)
609 + Added <> (same as ! and !=) as NRPE breaks the use of ! (in "all" numeric filters (eventlog))
610   Try using: filter-eventType=<>warning to remove everything that is not a warning
611 * Fixed two spelling mistakes in the SysTray module.
612 * Fixed 64-bit issues with installer
613 * Fixed so installer uninstalls/installs the service

617 
6182008-02-22 MickeM
619 * Fixed issues in the NRPE module (now returns the correct status)
620 + Added a lot of "error log" for when the packet size in NRPEListener is not correct
621    (might make it simpler to diagnose problems)
622
6232008-02-20 MickeM
624 + Added new module NRPEClient that can act as a NRPE client, might be useful for testing things and
625   eventually for relaying events.
626   Usage: nsclient++ -noboot NRPEClient -H 192.168.0.1 -p 5666 -c check_something -a foo bar
627   This is an early concept so don't expect much...
628 * Fixed a bug in NSCA module (now it works again :)
629 + Added a command wrapper for the NRPECLient module so now it can act as a check command.
630   (No argument handling yet though), For a sample check out the [NRPE Client Handlers] section in NSC.ini
631
6322008-02-19 MickeM
633 + Fixed a buffer overflow in the NRPE socket handling.
634 
6352008-02-18 MickeM
636 + Added proper output handling to process subsystem (now you can execute programs that return "much" data.
637 + Added select support for SSL_write (now you can send "any amount of data" to the (SSL) socket.
638   Since check_nrpe doesn't do this it wont work in that end, but still...
639
6402008-02-16 MickeM
641 + Re factored ExternalCommand handling so NRPE and new module does the same thing.
642
6432008-02-14 MickeM
644 + Added so commands starting in host_ (NSCA Handlers) are sent as host-commands
645 * Fixed a copy constructor in NSCA Commands (now service checks are sent as service checks)
646
6472008-02-13 MickeM
648 + Added string_length to [Settings] as well (used internally) for all "injected" buffers.
649 * Fixed issue with scripts result truncated after 1024 chars
650    (now they return "all" output and thus you can use the NRPE settings I added yesterday :)
651 + Added hostname setting to [NSCA] section (must have been  when I did not add it before)
652 + Added to NSCA truncates output when to long.
653
6542008-02-12 MickeM
655 + Added new option for the [NRPE] section string_length which is the length of the NRPE strings
656   (notice you need to recompile the check_nrpe to match this value)
657 * Improved exception handling in the PDH collector (hopefully less deadlocks)
658
6592008-02-11 MickeM
660 + Added encryption support for NSCA module (about half of the algorithms are available,
661     if someone wants to use one not available let me know, and I will try to add it)
662
6632008-02-09 MickeM
664 + New module CheckExternalScripts to handle 1, external script (similar to the old NRPE but in its own module)
665   - Can Check batch/vbs/programs/*
666   - Works with NSCA module (if you don't want to have NRPE at the same time)
667   - Simpler syntax (discarded old and added new section for alias)
668   - Started to add "sample alias" to ease initial setup and give some nice ideas (please provide me with feedback on them)
669
6702008-02-08 MickeM
671 + Added some more default catch handlers (on the "core" side of plugin-calls).
672

675
6762008-02-05 MickeM

692
6932008-02-02 MickeM
694 * Might have fixed the "missing eventlog messages" problem.
695 + Added %count% parameter to syntax which (when used with unique) will display the number of hits for each message displayed.
696
6972008-01-27 MickeM
698 * Fixed a memory-leak in format_time
699 * Fixed so time/date is displayed in "local time" (not UTC) for the eventlog check
700 + Added %message% to eventlog check. Will display the "proper formated eventlog message" as in the eventlog viewer.
701   For this to work you need to have the descriptions flag set
702   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
703 + Added option "unique" to CheckEventLog If this is present only unique errors will be returned.
704   The uniqueness is defined by event-log, event-source, event-id and event-category.
705
7062007-12-16 MickeM
707 + A lot of new features in the LUA module only "arguments" missing (as well as exposing more of the API)

715
7162007-12-09 MickeM
717 + Added a check if the service is started when running with /test so you get a warning
718 + Improved the socket thread with:
719    * a default-catch
720    * If the socket fails to start we still wait for it to shut down (no error message)
721 + Added first version of the NSCA agent (NSCAgent.dll)
722   (no encryption support as of yet, but will come)

741    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 ...
742    Only the above listed %<char> works, and default to 0 so might not be to pretty but works...

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

824 * Fixed the "check memory" issues for real this time.
825 * 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.

8772006-10-05 MickeM
878 * Yayyy!!! (first fix in a looong while :)
879 * Fixed a W2k3 "bug" (actually just an incorrect error) but the:
880   "e .\PDHCollector.cpp(130) Failed to query performance counters..." is no more...
881 + Added option to NRPE/NSClient section to not-cache host names (for dyndns etc.)
882   NOTICE this is "not safe" really in so far as someone might hi-jack your DNS and quickly gain
883   access to your nagios box (probably only a theoretical problem but hey! :)
884   NOTICE this is "slow" since all hosts in the list are "looked up" each time you get a NRPE/NSClient
885   request it will be "slow" but I think it is not that much of a problem really.
886   NOTICE I don't have the possibility to test this so feel free to report if it works and if it doesn't.
887   Set cache_allowed_hosts=0 to disable host cache
888

9022006-03-28 MickeM
903 + Added REG/INI parsers

905
9062006-03-25 MickeM
907 * Oblivion f*cking roxx!
908
9092006-03-02 MickeM
910 * Fixed bug in INI-file reader (memory leak)
911
9122006-03-01 MickeM
913 * Fixed bug in CheckFile (now dates work correctly)
914
9152006-02-26 MickeM
916 + Added syntax option to CheckFile (%filename%, %creation%, %access%, %write%, %size%).
917
9182006-02-25 MickeM
919 * Fixed Sections problem (now sections can be any size)
920 + Added bind_to_address option to both NRPE and NSClient section in the INI file.
921   Allows you to bind the listener to a specific IP address (only dotted number not host name).
922   This might break things as I had to do some internal rewrite of the Socket classes so be careful :)
923 * Disabled default-debug logging (as things are fairly stable, you can still enable it by using debug=1 in the NSC:ini file)
924 * "Fixed" socket backlog to use "max responsible value" as opposed to "10" if no value is specified.
925 + Added option socket_back_log to both NRPE and NSClient section that allows you to tweak the "back-log" of incoming connections to keep.
926   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.
927   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.
928 - 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.
929 * Moved listpdh and debugpdh into the CheckSystem module
930 * Removed PDH dependencies from "core exe" means you can run NSClient++ without PDH (though you cant use the CheckSystem module)
931 
9322006-02-2? MickeM
933 + Added new Interface for Modules (NSCommandLineExec that allows modules to execute things give from command line.
934   Syntax is NSClient++ <module name> <command> [arguments] and if a module doesn't support this it is simply ignored.
935 + Added new install/uninstall command to SystemTray module:
936   NSClient++.exe SystemTray install
937   NSClient++.exe SystemTray uninstall
938   That will install/uninstall the system tray module this sets the "Allow Service to Interact with Desktop" flag for the service.
939 * 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).
940 * Fixed so checkProcess isn't case sensitive.
941 * Added (not finished) syntax option to event log checker to format the outputted data
942
9432006-02-12 MickeM
944 + Added support for host name resolve to allowed_hosts
945
9462006-02-08 MickeM
947 ! Fixed filter-eventID in EventLog module (now works for all IDs regardless of severity state)
948 + Added new filters to EventLog (filter-severity that can filter based on event severity success, error, warning, informational)
949
9502006-02-07 MickeM
951 + Added new filter option to eventlog filter-eventID
952 + Added new operator to all numeric filters in:number,number,... etc. (for instance filter-eventID=in:123,456,789 to check for lists.
953
9542006-02-05 MickeM
955 + Added CheckFile check command
956   This new command (in development) will allow various file checks such as age, size, date, etc on single or multiple files.
957 + Added FILEAGE support to NSClient
958 + Started to convert the web page to WIKI
959 
9602006-01-21 MickeM
961 + Added WMI Check module (early alpha)
962   This is an extremely early alpha more to see if there is an interest and how to progress with it.
963   To use the WMI module enable the WMICheck.dll (nsc.ini) and then run the following check:
964   CheckWMI MaxWarn=10 MaxCrit=15 "Query:load=Select LoadPercentage from win32_Processor"
965   The Max* are as every other check and sets limits.
966   The Query works similarly to other check commands i.e.. Query:<name>=<WMI query>
967   So any other WMI query should work (notice this is experimental and not stable and has virtually
968   no error handling so it is likely to crash nsclient if you ask anything "non working".)
969   I would *really* *really* like to get feedback on how to expand this concept to work better so feel free to come with feedback.
970  * Fixed NT4 /install (should work now!)
971
9722006-01-02 MickeM
973 * Fixed ChangeServiceConfig2 on NT4
974 + Added support for more then 4GB memory (8GB?)
975   Since I don't have this much memory this needs to be verified...
976 * Fixed syntax of performance data
977
9782005-09-24 MickeM
979 * Fixed memory size bug (free and used were swapped)
980
9812005-09-20 MickeM

991
9922005-07-31 MickeM
993 + /install now sets the service to autostart
994 * Did some cleanup of minor code sections
995 * (done before but not reported i think) /listpdh option added to list all PDH counters (nsclient++ /listpdh)
996 + Added service description
997 * Event log reworked (again) this time I hope it is better (and even useful, but syntax has changed)
998
9992005-07-26 MickeM
1000 + Added support for ShowAll=long (to show long and short info, only applies to some areas, but available everywhere)
1001 + Extended Drive and memory check syntax to facilitate both Free and Used space checks: MaxWarnFree / MaxWarnUsed etc)
1002
10032005-07-19 MickeM
1004 * Changed thread API to use _creatthreadex as opposed to _creatthread (works better now!)

1006
10072005-07-16 MickeM
1008 * Fixed drive checks from NSClient
1009
10102005-07-11 MickeM
