If he logs out, how can he access a logbook at all? He should be presented a login
screen, nothing else...

Better first let's fix this problem. Under what circumstances does 2.5.3 not ask for
passwords? Maybe you can get the newest version from CVS (see download page) and try
again, I had problems when using the -DHAVE_CRYPT functionality, but I guess you did not
have that, do you?

So once you tried the latest snapshot, and still have problems, describe them carefully,
send me your configuration file, and I will have a look.
