Version 3.11

Changes

Released on Friday, December 22, 2006.

collectd: The new command line option `-P' makes it easier for distributors to change the location of PID-files.
collectd: The daemon shuts down faster now which makes it easier to write init.d-scripts for it.
Apache plugin: Increase the buffersize to 16k, because the 4k buffer caused problems every now and then.
DF plugin: New config options allow to ignore certain mountpoints, filesystem types or devices.
DNS plugin: The new dns plugin uses libpcap to capture DNS traffic and interprets it. It collects traffic as well as qtype, opcode and rcode counts.
E-Mail plugin: Sebastian Harl has contributed this plugin which counts received mails in categories (e.g. ham, spam, virus), spam score (as given by SpamAssassin) and check types.
MBMon plugin: Flavio Stanchina has contributed this plugin which uses mbmon to gather information from sensors on the motherboard.
Processes plugin: Collect detailed statistics for configured processes, that's process and thread count, CPU usage, resident segment size and pagefaults.
Multimeter plugin: Peter Holik contributed a new plugin which queries multimeters.
Sensors plugin: Lubos Stanek has put much effort into improving this plugin, including extended naming, collection of voltage values and the possibility to ignore certain values.

Released on Saturday, February 10, 2007.

DF plugin: Some wrong defines have been fixed so the plugin works under Solaris again.
DNS plugin: The usage of a struct has been fixed to work with non-GNU libcs.
Processes plugin: Some missing defines have been added so the plugin compiles cleanly under FreeBSD and presumably other UNIXes.

Released on Sunday, February 11, 2007.

plugin: Catch NULL-pointer and try to fix them. Otherwise the NULL-pointer may have been passed to printf which causes a segfault with some libcs.

Released on Friday, March 30, 2007.

configure: Have the configure-script define `HAVE_LIBKSTAT' instead of the unused `COLLECT_KSTAT'.

Released on Tuesday, April 10, 2007.

DNS plugin: Change the order of includes to make the plugin compile under FreeBSD.

Released on Tuesday, May 29, 2007.

configure: Added `AC_SYS_LARGEFILE' for LFS.
