This is a bug I discovered myself just today, so we are working on it. I 
expect this to be fixed by tomorrow or somewhen during this weekend.

The bug has been fixed in V 2.3.3 which has been released today.

I haven't tried `stunnel` with elog, but as far as I read from various
sources, stunnel requires you to create an SSL certificate. In attachment,
you'll find a sample case for stunnel and smtp (port 25) + pop3 (port 110).
Hope this helps.

It did, a lot, guess I missed that one in the changelog.

Had some trouble with subdir too:
changed it to its full path
restarted elogd
worked

As a test I changed subdir to it's relative path
restarted
It kept working

mmmm, I wonder where that twighlight tune comes from ...

If you installed from the RPM, elogd runs under the user "elog". If you have 
installed a previous version under a different user, it might be that elogd 
does not have read or write access to it. A 

"chown -R elog.elog /usr/local/elogdata"

might help.

After upgrading from 2.3.1 to 2.3.3, elog is not able to load any resources
as stylesheets, images or passwordfiles.

Cannot open file /usr/local/elogdata/logbooks/djeks/password!

oops?

Can you access your server locally under http://172.16.24.108:81 ??? If not, 
then you maybe specified the wrong port, so check elogd.cfg and the "-p" flag 
when starting elogd. If you can access it, and cannot access it under 
https://, then something must be wrong with your stunnel configuration. Maybe 
you run already a secure server under port 443? User "netstat -a" to check 
that.

Ooops, I destroyed the original post, now how can we fix this :)
