Sensor Targets: Import Target Servers from Existing Sensor

It is now possible to import target servers from another sensor with the options to merge with existing targets or overwrite entirely with the imported selection.

Improvement

GreenLight Backend (Foundation)

Upgrade to Domino Version 12.0.2

GreenLight's backend utilizes a greatly reduced subset of a Domino server's data and binary directories for Notes-native communication.

This server never starts and cannot start, but when GreenLight communicates with Domino servers for collection, it appears like a Notes Client for those Domino servers, carrying the version this stub Domino server inside GreenLight is set up with.

Since the previously used Domino 9 server was long outdated, this change was made with security and stability in mind.

Bug

GreenLight Frontend (UI)

Shell Script Sensor: Usage of Credentials as Parameters

The previously misleading user interface was corrected regarding the handling of parameters $username and $password.

The only static parameters are "target host name" ($1) and "target Domino name" ($2). If credentials need to be passed to the shell script, they need to be added as separate parameters. Best practices suggest adding these two as the first and second parameter in the list, separated by newline. That way they will be passed to the shell script as $3 and $4.
