- Our current host development allows us to pass machine statistics
- to our distributed filter arrangement, which then processes the
- data and stores it for later use. An example of such use is the
- historical report generator which produces graphs of machine
- usage over periods of time. A real-time
- client is also available (Conient) and alert information can be
- displayed to the public via dynamic web pages.

+ Work has now been finished on a new ihost written in C. This has
+ been in the pipeline for a long time, and we're glad to finally
+ see an efficient native host! Credit goes to our new developer
+ <a href="/who.shtml">Pete</a>. Until we update the downloads
+ pages you can download the new ihost

+ We've finally put the finishing touches to the new
+ <a href="http://rrdtool.eu.org">RRDtool</a> based graphing system.
+ It's working well, and has done away with the MySQL database
+ backend which took up far too many resources. This new system
+ generates the graphs in a more realtime nature, allowing more
+ flexible graphs to be generated. This is currently only available
+ through <a href="http://cvs.i-scream.org/cms/source/reports/rrdgraphing/">
+ CVS</a>.

+ Java ACL (Access Control List) code has been added to the util
+ package of the i-scream server. This code will ultimately allow
+ the server to be more secure when exposed to the Internet. More
+ details can be found <a href="http://www.cs.kent.ac.uk/people/staff/tdb/#acl">
+ here</a> on the author's website.
