How can I set up the admins or manager group with the ability to Lock a Thread?  I don't wish to keep two log books.

With

allow <command> = <user list>

deny <command> = <user list>

you can prevent certain users to use certain commands (like delete a message). If you only allow admins to issue the "edit" command, that would in principle do it, but then normal users cannot edit their entries any more. Unfortunately this command cannot be restricted to certain attributes, like the thread "status". So I guess what you want is not exactly possible with the current implementation. 

 Thanks for the reply.  I was looking for a way to stop replies to a runaway thread.  Was wondering why the elog system has a "Locked by" attribute, but no way to set it.

 I have a logbook installed on a Windows 64 bit VM server 2008 R2 and can access it fine using the password file.  However when using Kerberos it does not authenticate correctly.  I installed Kerberos and pointed it to the realm an domain controller.  Using KINIT command line it appears to accept my password.  Any help is appriciated.  Perhaps some other diagnostics i could try against the kerberos install

Here is global settings:

port = 49212

ssl = 1 

url = https://my-elog.domain.com:49212/

Authentication = Kerberos, file

Kerberos Realm = DOMAIN.COM

Admin User = me

Max content length = 10485760

Password file = pw.txt

Allow password change = 1  (perhaps this is an issue???)

 

Also...when adding users to the logbook, do you leave the password blank if using Kerberos?

You can leave the password just blank.

The "Allow password change = 1" does not make any difference. It works here even with this option.

So I have no idea why you have that problem. Does it work on another computer, i.e. is it related to the 64 bit VM machine?

Best regards,

The kerberos install, installed the Network Identity Manager and placed krb5 config in my windows directory.  Can a server run lsass.exe only?   or does the krb5 config file and Network Identity Manager need to be on the server?

 Installed both on a Windows 2003 R2 server (32bit) and Kerberos not authenticating, yet gievs me a ticket thru kinit.

Can ELog support different languages based on the logged on user?
