RackStack v1.93.0 — NetMap, 166 CLI Actions

RackStack v1.93.0

New network dependency mapping + SMB fix.

New Features

• NetMap CLI action: Discovers all network dependencies in one command — DNS servers, default gateways, domain controllers, NTP source, iSCSI targets, top TCP connections by remote host, and SMB shares. Structured JSON output for fleet-wide dependency mapping. Run: RackStack.exe -Action NetMap

Bug Fixes

• SMB Session Audit: Stale session detection now works — was using nonexistent ConnectedTime property, now correctly uses SecondsActive

RackStack v1.92.1

RackStack v1.92.1

Reliability fixes preventing hangs on systems with degraded WMI.

Bug Fixes

• WMI Audit: Provider test now correctly displays query latency — broken string interpolation was showing "OK (ms)" with no number
• Port Audit: TCP connections properly disposed in finally block — prevents socket handle leaks on connection exceptions
• CIM Timeouts: Added -OperationTimeoutSec to 14+ CIM queries across BIOSAudit, MemoryAudit, DiskAudit, DriverAudit, CredGuardAudit, USBDeviceAudit, ServiceAccountAudit, and SysInfoAudit — prevents indefinite hangs when WMI providers are unresponsive

RackStack v1.91.1

RackStack v1.91.1

9 bug fixes targeting networking safety, session reliability, and UX polish.

Bug Fixes

• IP rollback: Handles multiple default routes correctly — prevents leaving adapter unconfigured on rollback failure
• VLAN safety: Partial adapter matching now warns about non-exact matches and blocks when ambiguous — prevents silent misconfiguration
• NTP timeout: Time accuracy test uses Invoke-WithTimeout — prevents 30+ second UI freeze when internet is unreachable
• Download resume: Tracks elapsed time for resumed transfers — fixes "0 seconds" and wrong speed display
• Session restore: Now properly restores SessionChanges from saved state instead of dropping them
• Write-CenteredOutput: Now respects the $width parameter instead of ignoring it
• Performance: Removed per-change Get-Command overhead in Add-SessionChange
• Favorites: Deduplication prevents adding the same item multiple times
• Session summary: Separator lines properly indented to match surrounding content

RackStack v1.90.2

RackStack v1.90.2

Performance and reliability fixes across config export, CLI batch mode, and menu system.

Bug Fixes

• Baseline Save: Now stores actual performance snapshot data instead of just the file path
• Cleanup CLI: Validates profile tier and exits with error for invalid profiles instead of silently doing nothing
• BootAudit: Reuses existing CIM result for DEP check instead of redundant second query
• Config Export: Uses List<string> instead of 120+ += array operations — significantly faster on servers with many adapters/disks/services
• Config Import: Uses explicit $script: scope for local admin account name variable
• Save Profile: Validates parent directory exists before attempting to write
• Menu Cache: Configure Server menu now caches Test-RebootPending result instead of hitting registry/WMI on every render

RackStack v1.89.13

v1.89.13 — Security hardening, SMART disk data, failed services view

Security

• Password generator now uses RNGCryptoServiceProvider instead of Get-Random for cryptographically secure index generation.
• RDP and WinRM subnet restriction prompts now validate CIDR format and reject overly broad subnets (wider than /8).

Fixes

• User audit no longer flags accounts with null password expiry as "EXPIRED" — previously $null -lt (Get-Date) evaluated true in PowerShell.
• Password strength checker now uses PtrToStringBSTR (correct paired call) instead of PtrToStringAuto, preventing potential data misread on some platforms.
• Password strength checker and DSRM password validation now clear plaintext variables from memory in finally blocks.
• Removed dead code in scheduled export CLI action where both branches returned the same value.
• Removed leftover debug environment variable assignment in BIOS audit.

New features

• Disk reliability / SMART data section in health check — shows temperature, wear level, power-on hours, and read/write error counts per physical disk.
• Failed services quick view in Service Manager — shows all Automatic services that are Stopped, the most common troubleshooting query.

Enhancements

• Storage Manager disk display now shows serial number and media type (SSD/HDD) alongside the model name.
