Nearly correct, just follow the note: specify a logbook via the -l parameter.
So if you logbook is called "linux", you enter
elogd -a youtheman -l linux |

From the next version on *2.0.4), one can specify attributes in quotation
marks like
Options town = San Francisco, "Paris, Texas", "Paris, France"
which then can include commas. |

Having the URL link to a different logbook is right now not possible. But
what about setting up a single logbook with a write password. Everybody can
access it for reading, but only these people who know the write password
can enter messages. |

Has been fixed in 2.0.4 (as you can see from this entry). Please make sure
not to submit too long lines via "elog". For browser submissions, the line
length is limited to 78 characters, but not for "elog" submissions. |

Oops, I forgot the "IOptions" statement to documentation. Please see the
updated version at
http://midas.psi.ch/elog/config.html
look for "IOptions". For the Email notification see the whole
section "Email
notification" near the bottom of the page. |
