The button name has been changed from "change elogd.cfg" to "change config file"
since the file name is now variable (can be changed during compile time). But I
guess this is not your problem.

Can you try with the demo logbook (contained in the distribution). Just add
"password file = ..." and "admin user = ..." to the sample elogd.cfg. If I do that
here, everything works fine. You also can send me your elogd.cfg so I can have a look.
