There are two possible reasons:
1) The email address "christopher_warner@xxx.gov" is invalid. Some SMTP server immediately complain about invalid email addresses and refuse to send any mail then. In that case just supply an existing email address or remove that test account.
2) The SMTP server does not like the "SIZE=xxx" option. This comes from a single line in elogd.c:
snprintf(str, strsize - 1, "MAIL FROM: %s SIZE=%d\r\n", from, strlen(text));
you could just go there and remove the " SIZE=%d", so that the line looks like:
snprintf(str, strsize - 1, "MAIL FROM: %s\r\n", from);
to see if that makes any difference. |

Stefan, I found the following "forkpty()" replacement for running under Solaris. The URL is http://www.developerweb.net/forum/showthread.php?t=2990.
Perhaps this can be used unless someone comes up with a Solaris "util" library.
#ifdef SOLARIS /* Use the code in my_forkpty.c */
int my_forkpty (int *amaster, char *name, void *unused1, void *unused2);
#define forkpty my_forkpty

#include <stdlib.h>
#include <sys/ioctl.h>
#include <sys/stream.h>
#include <sys/stropts.h>
/* fork_pty() remplacement for Solaris.
* This ignore the last two arguments
* for the moment
*/
int
my_forkpty (int *amaster,
char *name,
void *unused1,
void *unused2)
{
int master, slave;
char *slave_name;
pid_t pid;
master = open("/dev/ptmx", O_RDWR);
if (master < 0)
return -1;
if (grantpt (master) < 0)
{
close (master);
return -1;
}
if (unlockpt (master) < 0)
{
close (master);
return -1;
}
slave_name = ptsname (master);
if (slave_name == NULL)
{
close (master);
return -1;
}
slave = open (slave_name, O_RDWR);
if (slave < 0)
{
close (master);
return -1;
}
if (ioctl (slave, I_PUSH, "ptem") < 0
|| ioctl (slave, I_PUSH, "ldterm") < 0)
{
close (slave);
close (master);
return -1;

*amaster = master;
if (name)
strcpy (name, slave_name);

Yap. There are two menus, one for the listing page which contains only line per entry, and one for the individual entry page. You changed the one for the individual entry page, which you will see when you slick on any entry. To change the listing page manu, do a List Menu commands = ... |

Ok, so I removed the SIZE=xxx parameter, which is not strictly necessary anyhow I believe. So wait for the next release, and you can try. |

Not really. I have two big issues higher on my list: XML database format and multithreaded HTTP server. From having a quick look to PAM, I was not sure how easy this would be to implement. If it's not too difficult, it could move higher in the priority list. |

Tell you what, I'm looking at two items related to eLog -- tell me to stop if you want:
- forkpty() emulation for Solaris
- PAM support
I'm furthur ahead on the forkpty() - just trying to figure out exactly where to place the code. Once I know it works then I can give it to you to incorporate. Unless you want what I have now and you can work on it.
I've also got quite a bit of reference code for PAM support. A little more daunting. |
