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.

Put on the wish list as well.

Weired, the icon is displayed in the search page just as "up.gif", and the 
elogd server should get this from the current themes/default/ directory. Try 
http://midas.psi.ch/elogdemo/Forum/up.gif . So where do you get your two 
slashes from?

Hello,
I am running Elog V2.1.3 on Solaris 8 and I was very pleased about this 
tool.But now I have a problem: Sometimes it takes a lot of time submitting 
an entry into a logbook, up to 3 minutes. This behaviour does only occur 
sometimes. Did anyone of You experience something like this?

if you have a site that requires authentication to the smtp server, how do 
you specify this info in elog???

thanks,
eric

Encoding  problem:

How to make ELOG generate HTTP pages with 

<META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=XXXX">

tag in header. With charset=XXX selectable via config.

On our:
   SunOS operator 5.8 Generic_108528-13 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-5_10

I get:

% make
gcc -g -O -o elog elog.c 
Undefined                       first referenced

I have no idea what is going on here

In my bottom.html file I have:

<A Href="host/Forum/?mode=summary&reverse=1&npp=10&Status=Open">Open</A> 
<A Href="host/Forum/?mode=threaded&reverse=1&npp=10&Status=
Open">(Threaded)</A> /                                                   
  <A Href="host/Forum/?mode=summary&reverse=1&npp=10&Status=C
losed">Closed</A> /  
<A Href="host/Forum/?mode=summary&reverse=1&npp=10">All</A>
<A Href="host/Forum/?mode=threaded&reverse=1&npp=10">(threaded)</A> 
tickets.

This sort of implements some of the buttons you have in your whishlist.

This works, because it is the same for all users, now what I would like 
is to add some sort of linke that will "show all entries from ME". I 
could do this on a per user basis, but that's not what I want, Something 
general with $user would be preferable.

Something like:

http://midas.psi.ch/elogdemo/Forum/?mode=threaded&reverse=1&npp=8&Author=$user

Is this possible ?
