icon4.gif   Buffer Overflow?, posted by Chris Warner on Wed Jan 18 17:20:45 2006 
Users can access root level directories by using a modified URL. I saw on some security web sites that this was a problem in previous versions. Was it not
fixed in 2.6?

In version 2.6 the themes do not work right on Windows. 
The URL is fixed at whichever logbook that is selected (e.g. ELOG 2.5.9-4 is <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="default.css"> & ELOG 2.6.0-1

icon5.gif   localhost definition problem, posted by Jason Koglin on Tue Jan 17 01:01:05 2006 
I've been running elog on my laptop for about a year.  I have had a problem several times now when I have had a bad crash of my computer that afterwards
elog does not run correctly.  The problem appears to be that "localhost" (e.g., http://localhost:8080/) gets changed to a domain name (http://sylvester.columbia.edu:8080/)
which is not registered.  I only want it to access this elog database locally on my machine and do not even want to set it up as a web server.
