I have just installed elog 2.8.1 on my OpenBSD 4.8 server (I've added the necessary Makefile patch to "Contributions"). Everything seems to work fine, however, I ran into a very odd problems with the dates of the logbook entries: When I start a new entry, the current date/time is displayed correctly. When I submit the entry and look at it again, the date has changed to some value in 1996 . I've checked the actual logbook file and there, the entry has a Date line like this:

Date: Thu, 03 Feb 2011 23:53:28 -13049141
 

The "-13049141" looks very suspicious to me - but I have no idea whatsoever why this happens. I had elogd running with -v, but that did not give me any hints. Any ideas how to debug/resolve this would be much appreciated...
