+1.4.11 13th December 2007
+       Fixed check_http regression in 1.4.10 where following redirects to
+         relative URLs on virtual hosts failed if both "-H" and "-I" were used
+       Merged two new checks that deprecates check_ntp: check_ntp_peer and check_ntp_time.
+         You should read the --help output so see which one is suitable for you. check_ntp_peer
+         implement stratum thresholds support (feature request #1703823).
+       check_ntp now returns UNKNOWN instead of WARNING if jitter is unavailable (jitter=-1.000000)
+         as long as the thresholds range include -1. If no offset threshold is specified
+         and the offset is unavailable, will return UNKNOWN as well.
+         NOTE: If jitter thresholds are specified as integers it will return CRITICAL if jitter
+         is "-1" as the default range starts at 0. See Examples in --help output.
+       Fixed broken usage2 in check_snmp and check_cluster
+       check_cluster now accepts all valid characters in its thresholds ("-", "@", "~")
+       Fixed check_disk reporting OK if disk usage grows over 100% (bug #1348746).
+         The problem happens to be in Gnulib but a workaround have been implemented in check_disk.c
+       Fixed check_load argument handling when not passing triplets (bug #1831890)
+       Fixed buffer overflow in check_snmp (CVE-2007-5623)
+       Tinderbox builds now runs tests in a verbose mode
+       Updated Nagios::Plugin to 0.22
+       VPATH problem fixed for compiling plugins-root

+1.4.10 28th September 2007
        Fix check_http buffer overflow vulnerability when following HTTP redirects
        check_http now explicitly asks HTTP/1.1 servers to close the connection
          after completion of the response

-       Check_disk now calls stat() on all filesystems to check. (Old: only the ones selected using -p) 
+       Check_disk now calls stat() on all filesystems to check. (Old: only the ones selected using -p)
          A meaningful error message (eg "Stale NFS Handle") is printed if stat fails.
        New check_disk option -L: Only check local filesystems, but call stat() on remote ones, too.
          Thus accessibility of remote filesystems can be checked without any threshold comparison.
