Really? Can you point me to a common web site using this? I would really like to see how other people use this.

Ok, I put it on my wishlist. If more than one person asks for this, I will implement it. Unfortunately it's not only putting a multiple into the HTML page, it's also a different way how multiple selections are passed in the POST form and their decoding, so it will be an hour or two of work for me. |

Keep up the great work. |
I added
Suppress default = 3
which always suppresses email notifications. The addition is under CVS and will be included in the next release.

Hello Stefan. I used this setting with the beta2 version and it works great. THANX!!! Many kudos to you for an elegant solution to the logging 'problem'. |

I can't remember just now a web site using it .. what I mean is that "multiple" attribute for the "select" tag is a standard for the web (it's not an IE extension or so on ..) so every web browser implements it.
It's normally used, for example, when you fill a form describing your attitudes, here you can often choose from a select box a number of interest you are concerded.. but it is only an example

Yes I know, uhm... if you point me to the right piece of code to be adjusted I can see if I'll be able to do the job  |

the scenario is:

- stunnel on the external interface
I dont want elog to listen on external interface, so.. why do not use the URL cfg attribute for this issue ? |
You can specify the interface to liste on with the "-n <interface>" parameter of elogd. |

uhm.. I think the confusion intrinsict in elog between long and short name is something to be solved ..
an attribute of type "userlist" fills always with the long_name .. but if I would to insert it as short ?
the users shown in the users admin dropdown menu is short .. why? .. may be I didnt understood the way this issue works ..  |

I know
the following is the configuration I'm telling about... and it raises the problem reported
albert@YYYYYYYYY:~$ ps axu | grep elog
elog 22348 1.0 1.9 23660 20408 ? Ss 11:32 4:54 /usr/sbin/elogd -f /var/run/elogd.pid -c /etc/elog.conf -d /var/lib/elog -s /usr/share/elog -p 8081 -n 127.0.0.1 -x -D

The "short name" is the equivalent to the unix login name. Under /etc/passwd, you have a login (short) name and a "full" (long) name. The first may not contain blanks, must be unique, while the second is more like a "real" name. This concept has been adapted in elog. While many people use cryptic or abbreviated login names, it's still nice know the real name, like if you get an email notification from someone. The userlist fills with the long_name because people refer to other people in the logbook usually with the real name (sometimes they even don't know the people's login name). The admin dropdown menu uses the short names because you look at the user database more from an administration point of view. Like if you edit /etc/passwd, you first look at the login name, not the full one. Maybe what one could add is to make the full name in the admin page a dropdown list as well, so the admin can either select the short or the long name. Another item for the wishlist |
