Ok this really is 2 questions.

1)
I have been running ELOG on FreeBSD no problem for a year now,
but this new version 2.5.8-x doesn't seem to wanna work, it compiles fine 
with a few warnings (see attached logs).
But has issues with password files, now it shows message "Can't open 
passwords.pwd" for all my logbooks. It did convert the password files to 
xml format. I had a good hard look at file permissions and config file with 
no luck. So I went back a version and compiled 2.5.7-1 which works just 
fine with old password files. So something with XML & FreeBSD?...

2)
Version 2.5.7-1 (maybe this has been fixed in 2.5.8?)
When I run a ./elogd -C http://elog.blah.here:88 it clones the config file 
just fine, also seems to copy over all logbook entries.
But once I look through them there's a fault with one of the fields it 
copies over, so entries never show up.

It should be:

But once cloned it looks like this:

For some reason it looses the "m" so line 4 instead of having
"hh:mm" has "hh: m"


Cheers,
