Since you used the -a switch for ls, the current directory '.' i.e. work/ is included in the list. I have the same kind of output. No worries.

Are you experiencing problems with ELOG?

There are two menus, one for the list display, and one for the individual entry display. To change the first, you need

List menu commands = ...
Guest list menu commands = ...

Got it. Thanks!

[Informations]
Guest menu commands = List, Back, Find, Login, Help
Guest find menu commands = List, Find, Select, Login, Help
Password file = ./passwd
Self register = 1
Logfile = elogd.log
Logging level = 3
Login expiration = 24
Admin user = testuser

Theme = default
Preset Author = $long_name
Attributes = Author, Subject
Locked Attributes = Author
Required Attributes = Author, Subject
Page Title = ELOG - $subject
Reverse sort = 1
Quick filter = Date, Subtext

 I tried your configuration and it worked as expected. Maybe you have edited the wrong configuration file, not restarted the server, or have an old page in your browser cache.

What would you like to see exactly?

a) Only groups. When you click on a group, you are taken to the first logbook 
in that group

b) Only groups. When you click on a group, a secondary page shows up showing 
a logbook selection page from that group

c) Two colums: First column group, second colum logbook, a bit like a 
directory structure like:

I think I would like: Only groups. When you click on a group, a secondary page
shows up showing logs in that group. 

I would also have the option to list all logs so you could see logs that are not
in a group or locate a log where you didn't know what group it was in. I would
also like to have the option to sort logs and groups.

I am using Elog to keep track of application servers. The log names are the server
names and they are grouped by application. The list on the first page is getting
very long.

Before I go and implement additional features, I would like to check if your problem 
cound not be solved easier. Whey don't you define your server as an attribute inside 
a logbook instead of having separate logbooks for each server? You know that you can 
sort by attributes (just by cliking on the column header for that attribute), so that 
would satisfy your need for sorting.

OK, I'm willing to give a shot but I don't know how to do it. I'll look in the docs and
see if I can figure it out.  Thanks.
