nocol v4.0	Dec 1, 1994
----------

- New monitors:   etherload, hostmon, rpcpingmon, snmpmon
- New 'logstats' report generation script from the logs.
- Fixed update_event() to do log when the *severity* changes also, not just
  look at the state (up/down). Reason being that if an event has multiple
  severity thresholds, then one would also like to know when the event
  has got out of critical (it could still be in error/warning state, but
  its not Critical anymore).
- Added 'nocol_startup' library routine for consistent handling of signals
  and generation of config filenames. Cleaned up lot of common code in all
  monitors.
  IMPORTANTLY, the config filename for 'ippingmon' is NOT 'ipnodes'
  anymore, but 'ippingmon-confg'.
- Bug fixes in noclogd, utility scripts, event_to_logstr, nocollib.pl, 
  Makefiles, netconsole, etc.
- Display changed to 'netconsole' instead of netmon.


nocol v3.1	Feb 1, 1994
----------

'multiping'  considerably enhanced. Compiles on BSDI/386 systems now.
Bugs fixed in  nsmon, bcmp() in multiping, portmon, nsmon, eventselect,
netmon/filter.c
Changed all of fgetline() to fgetLine() to avoid stdlib conflicts.
Typecast all malloc() statements. Function types defined in snmplib/mib.c
and snmplib/parse.c to avoid compiler warnings.
Added a nocol 'unit' field in trapmon (was NULL) to avoid messing up
awk scripts.
Added '-s' silent option in netmon.
Moved version.h into include/ directory and included in 'nocol.h'.
Fixed inet_ntoa() bug in tpmon/tpmon.c
