7    NEW FEATURES AND FUNCTIONS:
8    
9    *  New URL connection test. It is possible to use the URL notation
10       when testing the HTTP protocol. The http protocol test is also
11       changed to attempt to login using Basic authentication if the URL
12       contains a username and password as shown below. In addition the
13       http protocol test will follow redirect responses from the HTTP
14       server. Finally the new URL test can be used to test the content
15       returned by the server. POSIX regular expressions are supported in
16       this test. Here's an example showing off the new URL test:
17    
18        check host FOO with address www.foo.bar
19          if failed url https://user:password@www.foo.bar:8080/?query
20             and content == 'action="j_security_check"'
21          then ...
22    
23    *  Added monit daemon incarnation identification to monit status.
24       It is a unique number based on the monit startup time and used
25       for identifying monit instances.
26    
27    *  Added wap interface to monit (available in contrib/wap.php).
28       Thanks to David Fletcher <david at megapico!co!uk> for contributing
29       the PHP-script.
30    
31    *  Added apache-status protocol test contributed by David Fletcher,
32       <david at megapico!co!uk>. If you use the Apache Httpd server and
33       the mod_status module, this test may be useful since you can test
34       the internals of Apache as reported by mod_status.
35    
36    *  The Allow statement now accept additionally numeric networks in
37       IP/MASK syntax:
38            allow 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0
39            allow 10.0.0.0/8
40    
41    *  Added process PID change test. The test is implicit and monit will
42       send an alert by default if the pid was changed. It is possible to
43       override the default (alert) action by using this test;
44            if changed pid then <action>
45    
46    *  Added a process PPID (parent pid) change test. The test is implicit
47       and monit will send an alert by default. It is possible to override
48       this default action by using this statement:
49            if changed ppid then <action>
50    
51    *  Internal control file language changes. The char '=' is promoted to
52       a keyword and not longer ignored by monit. This change should be
53       backward compatible and shouldn't affect existing control files.
54    
55    *  Monit now looks for the control file monitrc in the directory
56       /usr/local/etc/ in addition to the standard ~/, /etc/ and ./
57       directories.
58    
59    *  NetBSD support added
60    
61    *  Added NTP version 3 protocol test contributed by Michel Marti
62       <michel!marti at objectxp!com>.
63    
64    *  Added support for monit daemon wakeup via its http interface. This
65       allows to remotely force a validation cycle start. The monit
66       daemon wakeup may be called by using the "/_validate" url (there is
67       also a button for this action on the monit http interface runtime page).
68       Thanks to Leen Besselink <leen at wirehub!nl> for suggesting the
69       feature.
70    
71    BUGFIXES:
72    *  Fix total real memory usage statistics on Darwin.
73    
74    *  Fix cpu usage statistics on Darwin.
75    
76    *  Make the device space and inode usage statistics more accurate.
77       Thanks M. D. Parker <mike!parker at ga!com> for reporting the
78       problem and providing the patch.
79    
80    *  Remove --without-accurate-mem-calcs and make it the default
81       behaviour. It appears that some of the info in the Linux 2.4
82       kernel was suspect, and it's outright bogus in 2.6.
83    
84    *  Fix process total memory usage (i.e process itself + children)
85       monitoring. Thanks to Michel Marti <michel!marti at objectxp!com>
86       for patch.
87    
88    *  Fixed custom mailserver port definition in 'set mailserver X port Y'
89       statement. Thanks to Pavel Urban <urbanp at mlp!cz> for reporting
90       the problem.
91    
92    *  Monit will reset service start and cycle counter on service unmonitor.
93       Thanks to Einar S. Idso for reporting the problem.
