NSClient

What's Changed

This is a bug fix release with a bit of everything (I.e. low hanging fruit). This is a "pre release" meaning I want some feedback on some of the changes (for instance default enable web server, and NRPE docs and changes). So as long as you read and understand the change-log there should not be any functional issues installing this in a production setting if you want.

Installer:

• Removed padded version numbers from installer (this caused issues with upgrade)
• Installer is now built with openssl presumably fixing remote config via https (have not verified this yet)
• Enabled WebUI by default in installer (open can still be used to disable)
• Harmonized docs with https://nsclient.org
• Added option to disable installing the service in installer

Security:

• Added option to configure ciphers in the web server (default is TLS 1.2 but now you can set 1.3 if you prefer)
• Default TLS (NRPE et al.) is now 1.2+ instead of only 1.2
• Improved some options and added docs for using NRPE with certificates and Nagios…
• Installer now installs the NRPE 2048 bit DH key

check_nscp_verison:

• Fixed check_nscp_verison parsing new semantic version

Various

• Started to add instructions for building locally
• Removed breakpad (replaced by restart watchdog and log files, but wont create and submit crash dumps (instead windows creates dumps which can be used))
• Bumped web and python dependencies

What's Changed

• Fixes config is overwritten by installer when upgrading from 0.4.x or 0.5.x
• Makes TLS default for web server (so enabled web server will now be exposed on https://localhost:8443 )

> This SHOULD fix the installer delete config issue, if not please do let me know HOW you install and which version as I have verified this locally now with the release artifact.
