Subject: Global password file together with guest account 
Hello,

is it possible to have an guest account together with a global password file?

I tried to put the password file statement into the global section of
elogd.cfg. But in this case every user must login and it is not possible to
have a read only guest account. 
But if I put the password file statemnet into the logbook sections, it is
possible to access the logbooks in read-only mode without logging in. The
drawback of this solution is, that you have to login into every logbook
seperately.
