=============================================
IPSentry v 4.1.21 (Maint Release)
=============================================
MOD:   IPSentry console retains position and size.

MOD:   Increased machine info size for remote "LIST"
       of entries.

.20---
MOD:    Introduced alpha sorting of machine
        entries in order to define order processing.
        Please note that dependencies will override
        this ordering process as needed.

.19---
Mod:    All "suspended" machines will be reported
        as SUSPEND in the statistics report.

        In previous versions, a machine that was
        suspended when in a state of failure would
        be displayed as "failed" when in reality
        the actual state of the item is unknown.

.18---
Patch:    DownTime schedule was not being honored
        by dependent entries.

.16---
CIPSentry.DLL not removing MUID values from
MUID listin the IPSentryV4 Registry area which
leaving stray entries in the registry.

Patch:    In very rare instances - and specific
          to apparent network architecture, and
          specific to order of entries, it
          was possible that a latent ICMP
          packet could be received during the
          processing of a non-related entry.
          The receipt of the packet could set
          a failure flag thus causing a false
          alert.

Patch:    Telnet "on occasion" would transmit
          a character that would cause the
          connection fail. IPSentry quits listening
          upon connect and this would cause the
          original connection to fail leaving IPSentry
          telnet listener in an unknown state.
          IPSentry now disregards negotiation.
          raw tcp connect.

Mod:      Under remote viewing, you can now specify
          the amount of time to pause IPSentry
          i.e. Pause HH:MM
          Remote pausing used to be 24 hour default.
          If you don't specify a time, it will be 24hr

.15---
FIX:  "Order Alerts" was returning an
          error 424 (Object Required Error)
          Corrected.

.14---
Patch: Modified the DATE: header on SMTP Email
       alerts to use the calculated difference
       between local time and Universal Coordinated
       time.  The TimeZone bias was being reported
       without proper consideration of daylight time.

       Headers would contain the proper local time,
       but the offset from UTC was off by an hour.
       Rather than  05:00:00 -0500  the time would
              read  05:00:00 -0400


.13---
Hack:  Added the ability to completely shut
       down Event Logging of IPSentry Application
       events when running under NT.

       Set the environment variable
       NOIPSEVLOG=TRUE
       This must be set under the system
       environment so that NT Services
       can also see the setting.


.12---
Patch:  Remote View using the "/nodown" switch
        to check items scheduled for downtime.
        This switch was being ignored so it
        was not possible ot issue a check
        on a system that was scheduled to be down.

.11---
Patch:  Trap RPC Automation Errors during
        NT Service monitoring.  * No alerts
        were being generated if the RPC
        failed to connect thereby leaving
        the possibility that a failed service
        would remain in that state.

        IPSentry no traps a failed RPC
        and triggers alerts associated with
        a stopped or non-running service.


=============================================
IPSentry v 4.1.10  (Version Update)
=============================================
Mod: Added %IPS_RECV_Fnnn% and %IPS_RECV_Lnnn%
     keywords allowing specification of the
     F>irst (n) characters or L>ast (n) characters
     received from remote host.
     Drive: Contains Drive Space Available
     Svc: Contains Service Status (Running, Not Active)
     AddIn: Contains the Add-In MonitorResult

Mod: Added %IPS_ALERTSEQUENCE% KeyWord to allow
     information on the total number of sequential alerts
     sent thus far. (i.e. If the pager alert has been
     triggered 4 times, this value is "4".  This uses
     the FirstAfter and AlertEvery and current failure count
     to determin the number of alerts sent.

Mod: Added option to increment dependent failure counters
     at the same rate as the top level machine.  When
     a machine fails, all of it's dependents ATTEMPT + FAILURE
     counts will also be incremented.

Mod: Added storage item for last known FREE space on drive.

Mod: Added %IPS_FREESPACE% KeyWord to allow access
     to the last known FreeSpace during a drive check.
     The default value for non DriveSpace items is "-1"

Mod: Added custom headers (Other Headers) option to the
     SMTP Email Alert.  You can now specify custom headers
     in your email alerts using the following syntax:
    <HEADER:Name: value>
     i.e. <HEADER:X-Priority: 1>
          <HEADER:Importance: high>

Mod: Minor changes to the internal TAP paging protocol
     to handle several more paging service variations.

Mod: Added alpha pager scripting capability for interface
     with various alphanumeric paging services such as
     Manual TAP, Vodafone, etc...  Scripts included
     represent TAP binary and TAP manual. (TapBin.SCR, TapMan.SCR)

Mod: Modified delay loops to reduce CPU
     Utiliziation during extended delays waiting
     for input from remote host.

Mod: Updated TCP/IP controls. ICMP timing loop
     enhanced. (Beta to verify stuck ICMP
     packet loss problems)

Mod: Added the LogFile Structures to the Help
     contents.

Mod/Fix:
     Due to the wide spread y2k testing in place,
     the LastAutoStat value (DATE/TIME) was being set
     and saved as a date in the future.  IPSentry uses
     this value to determine whether the correct amount
     of time has elapsed since the last auto-build of
     the statistics page.  When the date was saved
     as 2000+, the auto-stat report would not run until
     that time had past... IPSentry now destroys this value
     if the date is in the future and replaces it with the
     current machine date/time.

Mod: Increased size of and allowed resizing of the
     Add-Dependents window.  An other GUI adjustments.

Fix: Corrected problem with false UP alerts being
     sent when IPSentry is restarted or the configuration
     is modified...

Fix: Corrected the "Alert UP" option in the add-ins.  This
     value was being ignored when applied and remained OFF.

Fix: Targeted ICMP blockage problem where ICMP begins failing
     constantly and requires reboot.

Fix: Corrected problem where IPSentry would not properly terminate
     under certain circumstances (i.e. From the system tray).  This
     would leave an instance running causing the user to terminate
     the application with Task Menu.

========================================
IPSentry v 4.0.217 - Maintenance Release
========================================
FIX:  Add-In Alerts - Complete Correction
      not released in 4.0.216 package.


========================================
IPSentry v 4.0.216 - Maintenance Release
========================================
FIX:  Add-In Alerts would not function
      when marked "YES" in the alert
      area.  Default would function.

FIX:  View/Color Display flag reversed.

Mod:  Added internal 'Date:' header for
      email alerts.  Some relays are not
      supplying the date header if missing.
      Date is in UT (GMT) format with the
      local time offset appended.
      i.e. Thu, 18 Mar 1999 21:00 UT (-0500)

FIX:  Correct issue with down time scheduling
      where the trailing minutes near midnight
      were not being recognized.  The problem
      may not have been limited to that specific
      time period.

========================================
IPSentry v 4.0.215 - Patch
========================================
FIX:  Launch External App was doubling
      the AlertCount thereby causing
      MaxAlerts to be reached at only
      half of the specified value.

========================================
IPSentry v 4.0.215 - Private Test Release
========================================
FIX:  X10 Alert Schedule (First,Min,Max)
      was not being saved properly.

FIX:  Selecting exit while IPSentry was
      minimized to the system tray might
      not fully terminate the process.

FIX:  ICMP was not properly detecting
      "Host Unreachable" replies and
      therefor would not properly report
      the failure in connectivity.

========================================
IPSentry v 4.0.213 - Private Test Release
========================================
FIX:  X10 Sync problem  - Test Release

========================================
IPSentry v 4.0.212 - Maintenance Release
========================================
FIX:  Infamous error '380' corrected when
      selecting Edit-Options

UPD:  Misc GUI Display corrections.

============================================
IPSentry v 4.0.208 - Maintenance Pre-Release
============================================
FIX: Corrected problem with Telnet display
     using filters.  Was sending lines of "---"
     whenever an entry was encountered which
     did not fit the filter (i.e Check machname)

FIX: Extended TAP/SMS Password field to
     allo 16 Characters

FIX: Corrected more GUI inconsistencies and
     field blocking problems.

FIX: Runtime error 5 with erroneous network
     configuration information.

FIX: Runtime error 380 during CANCEL on:
     Edit | Options | Modem Settings | Modems

FIX: Corrected problem with Pager "UPCODE"
     notification.  The UPCODE was not being
     sent properly ('-1' regardless).

FIX: Corrected problem with "UP" notification.
     Sometimes the "UP" notification would be
     delivered on subsequent passes through
     the sentry cycle.

FIX: Problem with cascading dependencies
     when using Reverse Alert option would
     not allow continuation of the tree if
     the Reverse Alert was set.

FIX: Default.hti (creates IPSDefault.HTM) had
     an invalid reference to an additional
     .htm extension.  This would cause the
     click "here" link to reference
     an invalid file named {myoutputfile}.htm.htm

FIX: Default alert values were being placed
     into the alert settings for individual
     machines.  Upon saving of the settings,
     modifications to the "Defaults" would
     not be propogated to these machines.

FIX: Corrected problem with GUI inconsistencies.
     When select ICMP, RADIUS, or DNS - the timout
     value was not being noted as (ms) and caused
     confusion in setting the timout value which
     would result in false alerts on when utilization
     of the machine or the network increased.

FIX: Corrected problem with TAP control
     which was ignoring the NAK and RS
     requests from Paging Services.
     IPSentry will now retry and mark
     as failure upon receipt of NAK/RS
     TAP response from host.

FIX: Corrected problem with X10 Control
     which was causing the result of
     X10 Notification to report "Out Of Sync"
     resulting in incomplete "CYCLE" action.

========================================
IPSentry v 4.0.205 - Maintenance Release
========================================
Version 4.0.205 contains all fixes and
modifications contained in previous versions.

This is an official RGE, Inc. IPSentry Maintenance Release

=======================================
IPSentry v 4.0.204 - Maintenance Update
=======================================
FIX: Stack space error being logged when
     aborting a page.

FIX: Syslog "TEST" not sending current machine
     information.

=======================================
IPSentry v 4.0.203 - Maintenance Update
=======================================

MOD: Alpha pager control timing modified
     to handle certain response delay
     times.  IPSentry would either not
     see an ACK after login, or would
     miss the "BEGIN MESSAGE" ident
     depending on system timing.

=======================================
IPSentry v 4.0.202 - Maintenance Update
=======================================

FIX: Auto Output truncated double digit
     frequency value (i.e. 60 became 6)

FIX: Tip text on AutoOutput corrected.

FIX: Down Time Scheduling malfunctioning.
     This patch corrects a problem where
     the downtime schedule was not being
     followed - at all.

     If you depend on the down-time
     scheduling for your systems, you
     should apply this patch.

     If you are not running version 4.0.200,
     this patch is strongly recommended.

=======================================
IPSentry v 4.0.200 - Maintenance Update
=======================================

FIX: Entering of "5s" in the sentry cycle interval
     field would be replaced with "5" - thus, the
     timer interval was still allowing nothing less
     than 1 minute.  The 's' option is now fully supported.

FIX: NT Services problem.  Some NT Services would
     test OK, but when actually monitoring the service,
     IPSentry would report the service as down.

FIX: Paging- corrected issue where selecting "TEST" would
     not replace the "." within IPAddresses with the
     selected "Replace DOT Char".  This would result in
     the '-' not appearing for numeric pages.  The
     actual alerting was working properly.
     * Only under Numeric DTMF non-TAPI paging.

FIX: Corrected problem with DNS-TCP (as opposed to Port 53)
     where first check would succeed and all following checks
     would fail - this would also leave packet information
     in the Data To Send & Data To Recv fields.

DIS: Loop Beeps had stopped functioning.  We have no idea what
     caused this problem and have had to change the internal
     methods for speaker beeping.

SEC: Security issue with Password on Drive Monitoring.
     When switching from DRIVE to other monitoring option,
     the password would be displayed.  You are now offered
     the choice of clearing the field before the contents
     are made visible for other monitor types.


==============================
IPSentry v 4.0.199 - Final Release
==============================

  Fix: Correct problem in .195 causing mail alert errors.

==============================
IPSentry v 4.0.195 - Pre-Release
==============================
  Fix: Disk free-space checking > 2GB failed.
  Mod: Added "Force Uppercase" to alpha paging.

==============================
IPSentry v 4.0.190 - 11.23.1998 (BETA-RC-II)
==============================

  Mod: Disallow value of "0" for default timeout
  Mod: Included more key values in help
  Mod: Additional help and references in Q&A
  Mod: Additional information on the REVERSED option.
  Mod: Added "Restart" option to "File" menu.
  Mod: Added list of specialized Modem Init strings.
  Mod: Check longest display entry for horizontal
       scroll on Active Display
  Mod: Reduced base memory footprint by 800K
  Fix: Added keywords for NT Service name/desc

==============================
IPSentry v 4.0.187 - 11.16.1998 (BETA-RC)
==============================
  Here is .187 to fix these problems.

  Fix: Lockup with blank output filename specified
       on the STATISTICS tab when clicking OUTPUT NOW.

  Fix: Error 13 during V3toV4 import of Version 3 Settings

  Fix: Entering non-standar port (i.e. 6767 causes the
       data to send / data to recv fields to go blank)
       Ah - fix one problem, create another... ::sigh::

  Mod: Now using InstallShields PFTW instead of WinZip
       self extracting utility for install file.

  Mod: Changes to setup to correct problem with MSCOMM32.ocx
       and ComCat.DLL registration.

  Mod: Reg key entry mods.

  Mod: Configuration setting restart request tracks
       changes better.

  Mod: PROPERTIES and REMOVE are disabled when no machines
       exist in the Servers/Machines listing.

==============================
IPSentry v 4.0.106 - 11.06.1998 (BETA)
==============================
 Fix: Removed calls to the parameter loading routines that
      were retreiving redundant information from the Windows
      Registry.

 Fix: Corrected a problem where selection of "TAPI Compliant"
      pager option was not being stored.

 Fix: Corrected a problem where %IPS_NAME% and other key
      parameters were not being correctly translated during
      the email "TEST ALERT".

 Fix: Corrected a problem where IPSentry would return a
      fatal error "Item is already in collection" and
      then die if you tried to save a machine with a
      name that already existed.  You are now told that
      the name is a duplicate and that you need to change
      the name.

 Fix: Corrected a problem where IPSentry would not load all
      NT System Services (like MSSQL) when selecting to
      browse for service.

 Fix: Corrected a problem where
      the "Output Now" and "File->View Statistics" would
      output different results for 'down' machines.

 Fix: Added options [name] and [/NODOWN] to remote view command CHECK.
      Allows on-demand check of specified machine/monitor entry
      with optional over-ride of the down-time schedule.
      The Name parameter can use wildcard character filtering.

==============================
IPSentry v 4.0.099 - 11.04.1998 (BETA)
==============================
 Fix: Numeric TEST Page would send 000.000.000.000.99999 instead
      of the IP Address of the current machine.  This has been
      corrected to send the current IP.PORT information as long
      as the item is a NETWORK type monitoring entry, and the
      format of the IP Address field is *.*.*.*

 Fix: When clicking on the AUTO Configure button and using
      port types Radius, DNS-TCP, and DNS-UDP, you would receive
      a message "no definition for port...".  This *was* by design
      however this has been changed to disable the Auto Config
      option for these ports.  Radius, DNS, and ICMP use internal
      pre-defined packet structures with no alternate configuration
      options.

 Fix: Runtime Error #457 (Key already associated with collection)
      This occured when you selected to ADD a new monitoring entry,
      pressed canceled, and then attempted to ADD again.  This has
      been corrected.

 Fix: Email option reports misconfiguation on TEST ALERT with all
      setting correctly configured.  This has been corrected.

 Fix: On the Pager Configuration screen, using the Up/Down button
      to increment or decrement the delay values would cause the
      caption of the frame to increase or decrease.  This has
      been corrected.

 Fix: When telnetting to the remote port, ** would be displayed
      with the "Enter Password" prompt.  This has been corrected
      and will now display "Press Enter" to avoid confusion.  The
      remote monitoring port is not "TELNET" per se, it is a raw
      open socket that is better suited for raw telnet access.

      Also corrected the "Command:" output to be prefixed with
      ANSI Normal.

 Mod: Update the help to include a complet list of KEY words
      for use in messaging and command line args.

 Mod: Set F1 to load the Html help.  Still no context based help.

==============================
IPSentry v 4.0.54 - 10.31.1998 (BETA)
==============================
 Mod: Added Alphanumeric paging ability.

 Mod: Added option to not use TAPI - comes in handy with
      special dialing requirements.  Sends code direct to port.

 Mod: Added "SysLog" alerting - for all you *nix folk who like
      to trap these alerts with syslogd.

 Mod: Added "Disk Space" monitoring.  Monitor disk space on either
      predifined mapped drives (ie. D:) or UNC (ie. \\svr\share)

 Mod: Added "NT Service" monitoring option. Allows NT Service monitoring
      on local or remote machine (depends on security).

 Mod: Added "Reversed" option to Sentry. Allows for alert on success
      instead of failure.

 Mod: Added "Port" option to Mail Alert for use with Non-Standard SMTP
      Smart Hosts

 Mod: Added 's' option to Cycle Interval allowing finer granularity in
      sentry cycle by noting Seconds between Sentry Cycle.
      i.e. 5s = 5 seconds

 Mod: Added "Start Minimized" option.

 Mod: Added "ADD-IN" Alerting Option.

 Mod: Added "ADD-IN" Monitoring Option

 Mod: Added X10 alert functionality for Power Off/On of external devices.

 Mod: Added srvIPSEN.Exe as the IPSentry Service Manager.
      This handles Start/Stop events more gracefully while
      using less overhead in the IPSentry software for dealing
      with "service" specific functionality.

 Mod: Added "Copy From" to sentry machine config properties.

 Mod: Changed the Registration code algorythm. Please
      you must email your existing code to: [e-mail]

 Mod: Added "Disabled" option to log settings.
      You may now disable system status and error logs.

 Mod: Added Automatic Statistics Report option. You define
      output file/location

 Mod: Added ICMP-Ping for Win 98 OS

 Mod: Removed lock on ICMP for Win95. If your winsock supports
      it, it will work.  If you have the regular old Win95
      winsock - it won't succeed.  Just test it to see.

 Mod: Added CLEAR and CLEAR STATS options to remote telnet session
      Used to clear the Failure counts and Statistices remotely.

 Fix: Corrected problem in 3.1 where null "Replace '.'" value
      caused IPSentry to lock-up in an infinite loop during
      Test page, or Pager Alert.

 Mod: Set "File/View" to utilize default application for .TXT
      type documents.

 Mod: Added "Right Click" functionality when IPSentry is minimized
      to the System Tray. ("Open, Print, View, Pause, Check Now, Exit)

 Fix: Corrected "IMPORT" problem where Telnet, ICMP, and other monitors
      would import the port name into the data/send/recv fields if they
      were originally blank when the settings were exported.

 Mod: Ugradated TCP/IP Controls

 Fix: Corrected problem with fast CONNECT/DISCONNECT
      while using backup+master IPSentry configuration.

 Mod: Added "Detail Log" option.
      This option will report the begin and end of each action
      with the total milliseconds elapsed between the two reported
      as an additional field on the end of the log file.
      (i.e. SEND_START, SEND_OK - total time to completion)

 Mod: Added "Alert when back online" option to all alerts.
      You can use the "%IPS_M_STAT%" keyword within
      email message / subject, launch command line, and .wav file name.

 Mod: Added ability to note "." replacement character for paging.
      Some paging services use a "*" do terminate the call - OUCH!
      You may select either " ", "#", or "*" in order to replace "."
      characters in the IP Address during paging.
      i.e. ###.###.###.### is replaced with ###*###*###*###

 Mod: Added key-word functionality to SUBJECT of email alerts.

==============================
IPSentry v 3.0.68 - 12.04.1997
==============================
 Fix: Corrected problem with multi-pager + escalation + upcode.
      Upon paging the UPCODE, the pager number would be blanked
      thus failing to page appropriately when the system came
      back up.  The UPCODE will now be sent to the last pager
      dialed in the chain.

 Fix: Corrected problem where stopping IPSentry when running as
      an NT System Service was causing blue-screen on some systems.

 Mod: Added Machine/Suspend/Down icons to the machine list view.
      If a machine is suspended, you will see a yellow icon
      If a machine is down (or last check failed), you will see a
      big red icon with an X.
      Otherwise, you will just see a small computer icon in the list.

 Mod: Added full row highlight to all list view objects.

 Mod: Optimized some timing issues.

=============================
IPSentry v 3.0.x - 10.22.1997
=============================

 Mod: Fully enabled all functionality.  Unregistered versions are
      valid for 30 days.  After 30 days, all server entries will
      be skipped and no sentries will be performed.

 Mod: Added link to default browser to order license(s) direct
      from the registration information screen.

 Mod: Added ability to utilize binary data in the send/receive fields.
      Format is &Hnn&Hnn&Hnn....   using the hex value of the character.
      This came in handy for checking https and other misc. services that
      require a binary "hello" in order to respond.

 Mod: Added display options from the "Options" menu to set the output
      for b/w or color. This was required for use on B/W VGA monitors
      as some colors were not displayed properly.

 Mod: Added display option for "Short Display" wich reduces the active
      display to one line per machine ending with OK or DOWN.  Status
      of activity such as Send / Recv and time remaining is not displayed.
      Note however, all alert information is still displayed as before.

 Mod: Upgraded TCP/IP Controls to ActiveX based controls from Dev-Soft.

 Mod: Added ICMP (ping) option when running Windows NT.  This option
      is unavailable under Win95 due to the lack of raw socket access.
      This option MAY become available under Windows 98.

 Mod: Added functionality to check for response using "https" port 443
      for secure connection.  Send & Recv data fields should not be used
      and IPSentry will over-ride any data placed in these fields with
      a binary "hello" packet for the request.

 Mod: Added Cascading Dependencies.  This gives the ability to ignore
      servers and machines sitting behind a failed router - or ignore
      services based on failure of ICMP or ECHO.

 Mod: Added multi select for addition of dependent servers.

 Mod: Added SUSPEND checking flag to server settings dialogue.

 Mod: Added SUSPEND xxxxx to remote viewing access command list.

 Mod: Added LIST {filter} to remote viewing access in conjunction
      with new SUSPEND command. (Lookup the machine name to use)

 Mod: Added paramenter (n) to remote access "STATS" command allowing
      user to select maximum statistic report lines per page to be
      displayed.

 Mod: Added ability to customize E-Mail alert message.  Some alpha
      page by mail systems would reject the standard messages due
      to length.

 Mod: Incorporated "%xxxx%" keyword translation into custom e-mail
      message text.  See "Launch Command" help for the key-word list.

 Mod: Added "Options / Color Display" option to menubar.  You may turn
      color display off by deselecting this option.  Useful for machines
      running on mono-vga.  (Red text was hard to read)

 Mod: Added log file location setting. Prevously, log files are
      located in the installed application path.

 Fix: Corrected problem where service name to number lookup was
      taking way to long.  Load time was decreased by about 15 seconds.

 Fix: Corrected problem with +2 pager entries using escalation. Pagers
      above #2 were not being paged according to the schedule.

 Fix: Corrected problem with mail delivery to some SMTP hosts.

 Fix: Corrected problem where UpCode was being paged due to ANY failure
      whether or not the machine had reached the "1st After" alert
      threshold.

 Mod: Changed log-file and other "date" based output to utilize the
      system format.  This will primarily enhance international (non US)
      installations.

 Mod: Final decision on Alpha Paging: This feature will not be implemented
      directly into IPSentry in any version released within the next year.

       After working with some of the pager companies' OWN software, and
       having my share of troubles with much of it... The support
       requirements just will not allow this functionality.

 Fix: Corrected problem with Export Settings under NT due to binary
      security entry applied in registry.

=============================
IPSentry v 2.3.xB - 07.18.1997
=============================
 Fix: SMTP Mail problem generating error 501 on qmail
      SMTP servers.

 Fix: problem with International date format vs. U.S.
      date format causing Serial Number / Validation Code to
      be denied.

=============================
IPSentry v 2.3.x - 06.06.1997
=============================
 Mod: Added functionality to run as NT Service

 Mod: Moved IPSentry registry settings
      From: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\VB and VBA Program Settings\IPSentry
      To: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\IPSentry
      This correction eliminates problems with running IPSentry as other
      users as well as required for running as NT Server as "SYSTEM"

 Mod: Modified delay loops to reduce CPU Utiliziation

 Mod: Added Remote View port & password options

 Fix: duplicate machine statistics on statistics report (AGAIN).
      (My brain must have been on a lunch break with this)

 Mod: Removed requirement for M_nnnnnn.idn files for dynamic data.
      Statics placed back in machine sections of registry.

 Mod: Tightened up waiting loops with sleeps to reduce CPU utilization
      while awaiting response or perform page delays.

 Mod: Tightened up checking of <ESC> press during page to abort
      paging.

 Mod: Auto start dialing when only one pager in pager list.

=============================
IPSentry v 2.2.x - 05.21.1997
=============================
 Fix: Corrected minor timing issues while dialing using
      outside line from Dial Properties.

 Fix: Failure counter incrementing with each machine failure
      rather than per machine.  This would cause the possibility
      of alert not being sent if the "every" and "Max Alert" options
      were set to other than 1 and -1 respectively.  Because this
      is a problem with the underlying alert scheduling, other
      alert problems may have been noticed.  Corrected!

 Fix: Maximum alerts was off by 1.  For example: If max alerts was set
      to 2, 3 alerts would actually be issued.  Corrected!

 Fix: Changing the port via dropdown and select did not enable the
      "save" button under machine settings. Corrected!

 Fix: Selecting or unselecting "Loop Beeps" under Audible Alert would not
      enable the "Save" button. Corrected!

 Fix: Error #5 after several hours of execution. This error would appear
      on NT 4.0 (sp2 or sp3) only.  There appears to be a problem with
      high volume registry updates from VB.  I have modified IPSentry
      to utilize external files (.idn) files located in the same path
      as IPSentry.  These files will contain the statistical and counter
      information originally stored in the registry. Corrected!

      These files can be identified as M_nnnnnn.idn and should not be
      deleted.  If these files are removed, the statististic for a
      given machine will be reset to zero.

 Mod: Added <CTRL-C> option to terminate a sentry cycle.  Upon
      completion of the server being monitored, the remainder
      of the machines in the list will be skipped and IPSentry
      will return to the "Waiting (n) minutes..." message.

      This is similar to "pause" however, after the wait time,
      IPSentry will start the cycle again.

 Fix: After editing a machine/service properties, the list would return
      with no items selected.  This has been changed to keep the edited
      machine (last selected) as the current selection.

=============================
IPSentry v 2.1.x - 05.16.1997
=============================
 Fix: Selecting Maximize button on main IPSentry monitor screen caused
      strange display and corrupted text. Corrected!

 Fix: Selecting *Default in the "Enabled?" section of E-Mail, Audible,
      and Launch Command alert settings was not working properly.  When
      a service failed and IPSentry encountered this setting, a default
      setting of "Enabled? YES" was assumed.  Corrected!

 Fix: In "Test Alert" for multiple pagers.
      Holding <CTRL> key while clicking a pager number in order to
      test multiple pagers results in Run-Time Error 91. Using SHIFT
      while clicking an item worked correctly. Corrected!

 Fix: Problem with failure and alert counters not incrementing
      properly.  First After, Alert Every, Max Alerts were being
      initialized regardless of failure status. Corrected!

 Fix: When selecting "test" alert on pagers, prompt to save changes
      even when no changes were made.  Corrected!

 Fix: After editing a machine/service properties, the list would return
      with no items selected.  This has been changed to keep the edited
      machine (last selected) as the current selection.
