Dear Friend!,

Only mistake in your file .cfg is   spell mistake "Passwort" in "Passwort 
file = c:\elog\passwd.txt" line. It should "Password file" t=d. 

try some thing like below,

[Log]
Theme = default
Comment = Financial Accounting Bug posting 
Attributes = Resource, Project Name, Task Desc, SDT, EEDT, ACDT, Percent WC, 
Status 
Options Type = Masters, Transactions, Reports
Options Category = Bug, New Feature, Client Requirement, Change
Required Attributes = Author, Type, Bug
Page Title = ELOG - $subject
Reverse sort = 1
Quick filter = Date, Type
Password file =D:\Program Files\ELOG\logpwd.txt
;Self register = 0
Self register = 1

Admin user =sridhar
Menu commands = Back, Login, New, Edit, config, Delete, Reply, Find, Help, 
Logout
Guest user commands = config, admin, Login, logout

I would very much like to list groups instead of the individual logs on the
firs page you see after login.

Is there a way to do this?

impossible to create the moptions with

the variable are set to 
set D1=Tel
set zItel=Tel.gif

other standard option work fine

does anybody has good experience with elog.exe command ?

elog -h 'my site elo' -p 83 -l 'my logbook' -a Phone="%2" -a Contact="%3 %

icon5.gif   Behaviour of text when using quote marks in header fields , posted by Fergus Lynch on Wed Feb 11 15:06:38 2004 
Hi,

First off let me say what an excellent program, simple yet powerful...

I've noticed some erratic behaviour when using "quote marks" in header 
fields.  Basically all text to the right of a " disappears.  Try adding an 
entry with quote marks or replying to this post.

Presume this is a bug.

Keep up the good work

Fergus

So I fixed all compiler generated warnigns except these:

[midas@pc2075 ~/elog]$ gcc -g -O -W -Wall -o elogd src/elogd.c

Do you know how to disable these warnings or any other workaround? I would 
like to compile without any remaining warnings.

Have a look at the gcc info pages:

$ info gcc "invoking gcc" "warning options"

Sure, I'm not stupid! I looked for ~10 minutes how to turn off the remaining 
warnings, but I could not find it. The code is now correct, like I do want the 
"%y" format specifier in the strftime() function, but the warning is wrong. The 
closest I came to was 

-W -Wall -Wno-format

which removes ther warning in strftime(), but I do want this warning, since it 
helps in many other printf() statements.

  Sorry, didn't mean to offend you.

  One way to remove the warnings would be to use "%Y" in a separate strftime() call
  and then taking only the last two digits (characters) of that string.

  Something like:
old:
   strftime(str, sizeof(str), "%A, %d-%b-%y %H:%M:%S GMT", gmt);

new:
   strftime(str, sizeof(str), "%A, %d-%b-XX %H:%M:%S GMT", gmt);
   strftime(year, sizeof(year), "%Y", gmt);
   i=strstr(str,"XX"); /* find position of XX */
   if ( i+1 < sizeof(str) ) {
     str[i]  =year[3];
     str[i+1]=year[4];
   } else ...

  Somewhat cumbersome, but should work.  Maybe consider using the four 
  digit year directly, where possible.

  Gruss, Heiko
