Have a look under "Access control" in the manual. What you need is "Read
Password".

is there a way to set up a logbook so that a password is required to get
into it, but no username?

okay. that's good to know. i'll try using the apache method instead. but, there is
something wrong with the "secure" link to an example on the elog administrator's
guide.

stunnel is kind of a deprecated feature. Better use the SSL proxy of Apache,
as written in the elog admin guide. If someone else figures out how to use the
more revent stunnel, I'm willing to update the documentation.

i am trying to implement ssl features on our logbooks. however, it seems
that stunnel has drastically changed their program and the usual startup
procedures listed on the elog page don't work.
so, what is the new method for getting elog set up with stunnel?

Hmmm, I've made some entries to several logbooks (running 2.5.5), but I still don't
see the elog.rdf file:

find /usr/local/elog -name elog.rdf

<no files found>

I believe it is on the avant browser side. Below is the same shown in the
SharpReader browser, where everything is displayed correctly.

I didn't see the RSS button in Firefox, however the URL:

 	http://midas.psi.ch/elogs/Forum/elog.rdf
works fine in with Bloglines (http://www.bloglines.com/myblogs

I've installed the lastest elog (v2.5.5)--how do I turn it on for a particular
logbook?

Thanks,
Steve
