Unfortunately I don't have access to a FreeBSD box so I cannot try. But I 
thought the GNU make is the same on Linux and FreeBSD??? 

Has anybody successful compiled under FreeBSD?

Dear Friend!,

Only mistake in your file .cfg is   spell mistake "Passwort" in "Passwort 
file = c:\elog\passwd.txt" line. It should "Password file" t=d. 

try some thing like below,

[Log]
Theme = default
Comment = Financial Accounting Bug posting 
Attributes = Resource, Project Name, Task Desc, SDT, EEDT, ACDT, Percent WC, 
Status 
Options Type = Masters, Transactions, Reports
Options Category = Bug, New Feature, Client Requirement, Change
Required Attributes = Author, Type, Bug
Page Title = ELOG - $subject
Reverse sort = 1
Quick filter = Date, Type
Password file =D:\Program Files\ELOG\logpwd.txt
;Self register = 0
Self register = 1

Admin user =sridhar
Menu commands = Back, Login, New, Edit, config, Delete, Reply, Find, Help, 
Logout
Guest user commands = config, admin, Login, logout
  466   Wed Feb 11 15:06:38 2004 Question Fergus Lynchflynch@alternativenetworks.com  ELOG V2.5.0Behaviour of text when using quote marks in header fields
Hi,

First off let me say what an excellent program, simple yet powerful...

I've noticed some erratic behaviour when using "quote marks" in header 
fields.  Basically all text to the right of a " disappears.  Try adding an 
entry with quote marks or replying to this post.

Presume this is a bug.

Keep up the good work

  467   Fri Feb 13 12:18:19 2004 Angy Heiko Scheith.scheit@mpi-hd.mpg.de Linux2.5.0segmentation fault
Around line 2240 (in loc()) in elogd.c the following is written, 
which results in an infinite loop, since loc() recursively with
the same argument "Change %s".

   /* special case: "Change %s" */
   if (strstr(orig, "Change ")) {
      sprintf(result, loc("Change %s"), orig + 7);
      return result;
   }

For now I just commented these lines.
  468   Fri Feb 13 12:21:25 2004 Angy Heiko Scheith.scheit@mpi-hd.mpg.de Linux2.5.0elog (not elogd) submit does not work anymore
Somehow elog does not use the -s option (subdir) anymore,
resulting in a 'HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found' error.

For now I am using elog from version 2.3.9 together with elogd v2.5.0,
which seems to work OK.
  469   Fri Feb 13 12:25:15 2004 Warning Heiko Scheith.scheit@mpi-hd.mpg.de Linux2.5.0-W -Wall options (using gcc)
Maybe consider using the options -W -Wall when compiling elogd.
There are several warning messages.

Like this one ^^^ ???

I'm joking! I fixed the bug and updated the elogd server. Please find the new 
version under CVS.
