I noticed that when I put in a password such as <test1> a person can login 
with the password <test2> or any other number at the end.  Is the 
encryption not able to tell the difference between numbers?  The encrypted 
passwords even look the same in the password file.  Is this a bug?

Ok, I installed the latest version and this is fixed.  Thanx!

Ok, try it with the passwords <hello1> and <hello2>.  Then when you go to log 
in, put in the password of <hello> with any single number after it and let me 
know if the problem shows up for you because that is the password I was 
using.  When I look at it encrypted in the passwd file they look the same.  I 
also installed the latest version today which is newer than the one I was 
using before and it still does it.  I appreciate your time.

At some point, in the last week or so, I upgraded the debian-unstable
version (r1459-1) of elog.  Now, PostScript files (as attachments) are
displayed (shown in ascii text, instead of just showing the link).  

Is there an option in the elog.cfg to only display certain files (like .gif
or .jpg).

I wondered if there was a config line that enabled/disabled the forward and backward navigation keystrokes that were implemented in 2.7.0?

The current definitions (Control-PgUp/PgDown/Home/End) interfere with those keys I use to navigate between tabs in Firefox.  It'd be nice if they could either be turned off.. or redefined.

 Got it to work as desired.

Thanks for your help and your quick response.
