Ok, I implemented "Subst on edit", it will be contained in Version 2.3.1 
which is supposed to come out next week.

I haven't tried `stunnel` with elog, but as far as I read from various
sources, stunnel requires you to create an SSL certificate. In attachment,
you'll find a sample case for stunnel and smtp (port 25) + pop3 (port 110).
Hope this helps.

Can you access your server locally under http://172.16.24.108:81 ??? If not, 
then you maybe specified the wrong port, so check elogd.cfg and the "-p" flag 
when starting elogd. If you can access it, and cannot access it under 
https://, then something must be wrong with your stunnel configuration. Maybe 
you run already a secure server under port 443? User "netstat -a" to check 
that.

Ooops, I destroyed the original post, now how can we fix this :)

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 changed the default title recently to "ELOG - <logbook>" where <logbook> 
is the name of the current logbook. For the individual messages, the 
title "ELOG" can be changed with the elogd.cfg option "Page title". This 
title can even contain attributes from the logook entry like:

Page title = ELOG - $subject

where $subject gets replaced by the subject of the logbook entry.

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)
