Thanks for the answer. The real problem is that you can overwrite existing entries even if you have set an entry to "read only", i.e. you have
forbidden further editing.

There is no "read only" flag. Please describe what you exactly did. Probably you want "Restrict edit time" for that.

Sorry, 

I meant "read only" by using "Restrict edit time" settings. e.g.

Restrict edit time = 24

So you are telling me that "Restrict edit time" is not working correctly? In order to fix any problem, I have to reproduce it. Can you post
a minimel elogd.cfg file with which I can reproduce the problem?

I ask my users where they had the problems and then create a demo for testing.
Thanks Heinz

Ok, I found the issue. The "Restrict edit time" is only checked when one clicks on "Edit" in the browser. The elog command line tool
does not really an edit, but just submits an entry with an (old) ID. I added a check also for that case so now it should work. The commit is in git.
