I don't really know what's involved in that, but I have several thousand clients using my own curl script to report, because I'm required to use encrypted connections.
I tried compiling on RHEL10 last week. There's a problem there to address - pcre has been deprecated and replaced with pcre2. The old pcre is still present up to RHEL9, but it's missing in 10. I;ll take a look and see what I can do with it, but I'm not a hot-shot programmer so it might take a while.Ralph Mitchell_______________________________________________On Thu, Jan 15, 2026 at 2:54 PM Mark Felder via Xymon <xymon@xymon.com> wrote:On 1/15/26 10:31, Stef Coene wrote:

Stef, I think you posted about these on the mailing list a long time ago
and I found them when I was going through mailing list history since the
last release. Very very interested in these additions too. The trick to
submit the client data over HTTPS was very clever -- I was about to
build that myself.
