Im not running anything on port 443, one thing I did notice is that when 
stunnel is run and setup, I can run a netstat and nothing is bound to those 
ports, if I do a ps -ef | grep stunnel nothing is running, yet it accepts the 
command initially ?


CONFUSED ????

I have those attributes already working for example

[global]
Page title = Customer Relational Management System < this sets the selection 
page ok

[Config DB]
Page Title = ABC123 - $Customer Name < this sets the individual log book 
entries title

I need something to set the title of the page when on the summary page for 
the logbook, as it just says ELOG - Config DB (this isnt set anywhere)

Forgot password option generates an error message

Password file hashes are different causing migrated password files to fail 
but only for certain users, try password 516135 hashed in 2.3.4 and compare 
to version 2.3.5 they are different.

Summary page title = string doesnt work also it results in the default ELOG 
DB Name

HELP

Is there a way to convert all the hashes from one system to another, the 
problem ive got is my password files are quiet large and want upgrades of 
this nature to go seemlessly without people complaining about it.

Is there a way to hide logbooks from all views.

Basically i want to use the move function to move old entries to another 
logbook but only want administrators to be able to see the logbooks in the 
view, everyone will just see the primary ones.

At the min im having to put Archive logbook, everyone is complaining at me 
that there is too many to choose from :)

Any suggestions ?

I tried that but on the summary screen it displays a list of all the logbook 
regardless of group, also im not using public groups im using a seperate 
password file.

Yes thats wicked perfect, now im prob being thick but is there a way to hide 
logbook tabs in the same way, as i dont really want to use groups as the 
people that use the system arent really techie and the titles will confuse 
them :)

Im trying to make it idiot proof for them
