Entry   Forum, posted by Stefan Ritt on Wed Feb 26 09:45:23 2003 elogd.txt
This is the configuration of the discussion forum on this server. Special 
things are:

- a guest menu so people without an account can read it
- an entry can only be edited by the original author ('restrict edit = 1')
- the author and email attributes are taken from the password file and
  cannot be changed by the author, thus to make sure who wrote a specific
  entry
- the email notification is sent to all people who registered for it, but
  their email address is not contained in the "To:" field 
  (Omit Email to = 1) so that they don't see each other's email address
  (for security reasons). For the 'from' field in the email, my address
  is used to that people can hit 'reply' on automatic notifications and
  they will reach me.
- The option "Format <attribute>" is used for a compact page display

This is the configuration from this logbook. There are a few special things:

  • it has a guest menu so that people without an account can read it
  • the author and email are automatically taken from the password file
  • a 'last revision' gets updated on each edit
  • entries can only changed by the origial author ('restrict edit = 1')
  • no email notification is sent

Please find the elogd.cfg attached.
Entry   Welcome, posted by Stefan Ritt on Wed Feb 26 09:07:44 2003 
Welcome to the "Config Examples" logbook. This database contains elogd.cfg 
examples from various users, showing how ELOG can be configured for various 
purposes. Feel free to use these configuration files as a starting point 
for your own logbook.

To enter a new configuration example, you have to register an account on 
the "Forum" logbook, then you can log in with the same username and 
password to this database.

Then you are supposed to upload your "elogd.cfg", but I suggest to first 
rename it locally to "elogd.txt" and then upload it. This way it gets 
automatically displayed below the message body, so people can see the 
message body and the contents of the configuration file at the same time.

If you want to revise your entry at a later time, hit 'edit', delete your 
old attachment, and submit your new 'elogd.txt' file.
