Is this possible?  If so, could you provide an example:

I'm trying to find a way that when you do a search, that you can filter 
entries using ( = , <>, AND) on one or more attributes.
ex:  Find all workstations for this subnet, but exclude a particular one.
Thats the basic idea.

Can it be done? If so, how?

Thanks,
Eric

No, it cannot be done right now, but it's on the wishlist since some time. 
So I added your vote there.

I know there's an item on the wishlist for password expiration, so how 
about account expiration..?? (after so many days of inactivity).

One complaint that comes from management is that when a user leaves the 
agency, the elog account seems to never get deleted.  There way of asking 
me, why I never keep up with the user account deletions.  Ha Ha, like I 
have time to constantly compare the user list from elog to the user list of 
other systems.

Another plea on my part, for Elog to allow for authentication via external 
database - such as LDAP, so we wouldn't have to maintain another user 
database.

Thanks,
Eric

Hi,

I am trying to create an issues logbook where I have defined an attribute 
so I can track who this issue is assigned to. In order to get a drop-down 
list of users of the system to show up for that attribute (when creating a 
new issue), I have to type in the whole list of users in the config file. 
The problem is that whenever a user self-registers, I have to go into the 
config file and add that user to the list. Is there a way to write 
something like this:

Options Assigned To = $user_list

I am a new user, and am thoroughly enjoying working with ELog. Thanks for 
such a neat product. I have not been able to go through all the logs yet 
to figure out if this question has been asked/answered before.

I just upgraded from 2.3.5 to 2.3.9.

There are some errors in the generated HTML.  Most of the time
the browser renders everything correctly but sometimes not.  Please
check especially (http://validator.w3.org/):

    There are too many <table> tags before the attribute list:
    'Type', 'Operating system',...  This should be just one table and
    not each row a separate table.  Also the first <table> tag lies
    outside a <td> tag of the enclosing table.

Ok, added to the wishlist.

I had that request more than once. The problem with it is that I cannot 
implement it, since he have no LDAP server here at our institute to try it. So 
if someone teaches me how to do LDAP authorization correctly, I can put it in, 
but not before.

This is not possible right now, but I will consider implementing it some time.

I did so and fixed several errors. Now the W3 validator doesn't complain any 
more. New version under CVS.
