Unfortunately I don't have a 64-bit compiler to try. Can you please check if
elogd.c has similar warnings or only regex.c? The ones in elogd.c I can fix,
but regex.c is straight from the GNU C library, so we would have to wait intil
they fix it. Or can you get it from the 64-bit C library? The point is that I
need the source code, so that I can compile it under Windows as well. Can you
try to compile elogd without regex.c, like 

gcc -g -O -W -Wall -o elogd src/elogd.c

If that works fine, we don't have to compile regex.c under linux. But I guess
it's still needed fot Solaris and other non-GNU Unix brands.

When compiling elogd on AMD64 (in 64 bit mode) there are many 
warnings like these:

src/regex.c:3769: warning: cast from pointer to integer of different size
src/regex.c:3769: warning: cast from pointer to integer of different size
src/regex.c:3775: warning: cast to pointer from integer of different size

The reason is the (int) cast, which (I think) is not necessary.

is there a way to set up a logbook so that a password is required to get
into it, but no username?

No, this is an HTTP standard. The dialog box is generated by your browser, and I
do not know any way to prevent it.

thanks. that seems to get me the functionality i needed. is there any way to
get rid of the username line when using the "Read Password" feature? as it is
now, you can either leave it blank or enter anything you want, so long as you
use the correct password it still works. however, to keep users from getting
confused, i think it would be better to only have a box asking you for the
password and not both the password and username.

Have a look under "Access control" in the manual. What you need is "Read
Password".
