I want to stop users from accessing my elog by loading the URL: http://mycomputerURL:8080 and only make it accessible through http://mycomputerURL/elog. The end goal would be to use Apache to control access. I followed the instructions under "Running elogd under Apache" in the admin guide, but what that did was simply to redirect browsers trying to load ttp://mycomputerURL/elog to http://mycomputerURL:8080. |
If you want to have user-level access control, you need to do that with the config option
Password file = ...
Then, if you have the
URL = http://mycomputerURL/elog
statement in your config file, you get redirected from elogd after each login automatically to that URL. If you physically want to block the 8080 port, you have to do that on the operating system level, like with iptables or ipchains. |
compiling elog 2.6.1 on solaris platform, posted by Angus Au on Thu Feb 2 03:19:44 2006

I came across problem in compiling elog 2.6.1 on solaris platform.
The messages "
# make
gcc -o elog src/elog.c -lutil -lsocket -lnsl
ld: fatal: library -lutil: not found
ld: fatal: File processing errors. No output written to elog
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
*** Error code 1
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `elog'
It seems to me that library libutil does not exist on solaris platform.
Is there any fix ? I can compile elog 2.6.0 successfully on solaris. |

sort after find, posted by Willem Koster on Fri Feb 3 12:38:57 2006
|
When I do a find (like Field1 = XXX )
and then try to sort the results I get the entire list again (but sorted) instead of the sorted results.
But when I fabricate a url manually like
http://elog.com/Forum/?mode=summary&npp=990&Field1=XXX&sort=field2
I do get the search-results nicely sorted.
Obviously I would like to be able to sort the result of a find-query.
Is this a bug or a feature request ? |

There is a fix, we have 2.6.1 running on Solaris.
A colleague of me installed it and did mention something about having to go through the source and adapting the
makefile. I didn't hear him speak of missing libraries though, I will ask him next week. |

elog allows me to create user "blahblah ", posted by Dimitrios Tsirigkas on Fri Feb 3 18:15:47 2006

Hi,
I noticed that when I register a username that contains whitespaces (eg "boing "), elog allows me to create the user of that name and updates the password file accordingly. It doesn't log me in, but it gives me no error message either. I also found that if I repeat the process it adds yet another entry in the password file, by the same name "boing ". Is that a bug or is there something wrong with my configuration?
Cheers,
Dimitris |

By the way, it is also possible to create a user that doesn't have a password! Shouldn't that be forbidden?

The util library was added recently because of the new shell substitution functionaly, which requires the forkpty() function call. If you know in which library the forkpty is available on solaris, the makefile could be adjusted accordingly. If the forkpty is not available at all, we have to disable the shell substitution under solaris via conditional compilation. |

Well, some people want that! |
