Several updates tonight.  1.5rc5-09 October 29, 2018 - Use the ADMIN menu
item 1 to update. As usual it is important to do updates especially if you
have not dome one in awhile.

Another Supermon update.

     - Minor bugs fixes and changes
     - Fixed Firefox browser (and others) inability to save the password.
       Be sure to login and save at the root URL  -  URL/supermon
     - Added ability to change the browser titlebar. This is accomplished by
       adding the following to the end of the /srv/http/supermon/global.inc
file -

       //  Change Titlebar - Note this appends this name at the beginning
of the title
       //  Leave as null "" or comment the following line for no change

       $SMSERVERNAME = “My title”;

       //

      This is useful when you have browser tabs that don't display enough
of the title to see what it really is.

     - Fixed possible deadlock condition if public IP was not available.

The astdb.php file has been modified to filter non-printing characters
coming from Allstar. The mainly effected the displays in Supermon. It also
does not write a new file if the download fails due to a smaller then
expected file size thus retaining the existing file. This eliminates
overwriting the file in a case where a file downloads but it is not
complete. This will fix the problem we had several weeks ago where the data
was not available and users ended up with a blank file and no node info in
Supermon and other places.

Added  experimental_scripts directory under /usr/local/sbin.  This includes
the power_fail_check.sh, intruder_check.sh, and fan_control.sh scripts.
These scripts work but are considered experimental as users can modify them
to their liking. They are also examples on how to write simple scripts to
do things in Linux and Allstar. More scripts will be added here in the
future.
