Hello,
    Is it possible to have a drop down list with commas in the options.  
For instance, if you want to have a attribute "CityState" you would 
probably want a comma between the City and State name.  Since the Options 
are separated by commas, it turns into two different options.  I dont know 
if there is a way to do this or if this is a bug?

i work on Windows2000

part of my elog.cfg:

    Passwort file = c:\elog\passwd.txt
    Self register = 1
    Guest user commands = config, admin, logout

file system:

    - i created an emty file with name passwd.txt

problem:

    - if i use the link "Register as new user" on login, it does not work.
    - if i login as guest user and choose the menu config, it only 
    display  the attributes Login_name, Full_name and Email.    
    So i kann not create user.

what should i do ?
what are my mistakes ?

Can you attache as sample password file ?

in Unix:
i fixed the problem by defining a password file entry like 'user1::::'. 
then i defined 'admin user = user1' in elogd.cfg.
then i connected with login name 'user1' and created new user (as admin).

in Windows2000:
if i do this steps and i save the new user, it fails. the server service 
crash down.

I have two different groups who want elogs for all of their members. How do
I set elog up so group 1 uses port 8082 and group 2 uses 8083 (and they
don't see each other's messages in the initial "menu" screen.

You run two instances of the elogd daemon like:

elogd -p 8082 -c /usr/local/elog/elogd1.cfg
elogd -p 8083 -c /usr/local/elog/elogd2.cfg

i have a forum with one message. the forums is displayed with the search mode set to threaded.

the list shows this: 

posted by tony summerfelt on Tuesday, September 17/2002 -- 11:19 AM

but the entry date on the message is:

Sunday, September 01/2002 -- 01:47 AM 

the 'posted by' shows the current date/time everytime i look at the message.

I vaguely remember there was once a problem with that date. So can you please 
try again with a recent version of ELOG?
