+[3.0.0](https://github.com/NagiosEnterprises/nrpe/releases/tag/nrpe-3.0.0) - 2016-08-01
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+**SECURITY**
+* Fix for CVE-2014-2913
+* Added function to clean the environment before forking. (John Frickson)
+
+**ENHANCEMENTS**
+* Added support for optional config file to check_nrpe. With the new SSL
+ parameters, the line was getting long. The config file is specified with
+ --config-file=<path> or -f <path> parameters. The config file must look
+ like command line options, but the options can be on separate lines. It
+ MUST NOT include --config-file (-f), --command (-c) or --args (-a). If any
+ options are in both the config file and on the command line, the command line
+ options are used.
+* make can now add users and groups using "make install-groups-users" (John Frickson)
+* Added "nrpe-uninstall" script to the same directory nrpe get installed to (John Frickson)
+* Updated code so configure && make will work on AIX, HP-UX, Solaris, OS X.
+ There should be no errors or warnings. Let me know if any errors or
+ warning appear (John Frickson)
+* Added command-line option to prevent forking, since some of the init
+ replacements (such as systemd, etc.) don't want daemons to fork (John Frickson)
+* Added autoconf macros and additional files to better support multi-platform
+ config and compile. The default will still set up to install to
+ /usr/local/nagios but I added a new configure option:
+ '--enable-install-method=<method>'. If <method> is 'opt', everything will
+ install to '/opt/nagios'. If <method> is 'os', installation will be to O/S-
+ and distribution-specific locations, such as /usr/sbin, /usr/lib/nagios,
+ /etc/nagios, and so on.
+* Added additional init and inetd config files to support more systems,
+ including SuSE, Debian, Slackware, Gentoo, *BSD, AIX, HP-UX, Solaris, OS X.
+* Added listen_queue_size as configuration option (Vadim Antipov, Kaspersky Lab)
+* Reworked SSL/TLS. See the README.SSL.md file for full info. (John Frickson)
+* Added support for version 3 variable sized packets up to 64KB. nrpe will
+ accept either version from check_nrpe. check_nrpe will try to send a
+ version 3 packet first, and fall back to version 2. check_nrpe can be forced
+ to only send version 2 packets if the switch `-2` is used. (John Frickson)
+* Added extended timeout syntax in the -t <secs>:<status> format. (ABrist)
+
+**FIXES**
+* Fixed configure to check more places for SSL headers/libs. (John Frickson)
+* Added ifdefs for complete_SSL_shutdown to compile without SSL. (Matthew L. Daniel)

+* allowed_hosts doesn't work, if one of the hostnames can't be resolved by dns (John Frickson)
+* allowed_hosts doesn't work with a hostname resolving to an IPv6 address (John Frickson)
+* Return UNKNOWN when issues occur (Andrew Widdersheim)
+* NRPE returns OK if check can't be executed (Andrew Widdersheim)
