 | Alan Grant | netman311@mts.net | Question | Windows | 2.9.0 | Elog client usage |
I have searched the Elog forum and docs at length for actual examples of how to use the Elog client and I apologize if I missed it somehwere but could someone please provide some actual examples of how the parmeters are used? I haven't had much success setting it up just going by the Elog command syntax quide.
What I intend to do is load a raw text file into an active logbook directly, either one line at at time or batched from a text file ("m" option).
Also, I saw a Perl script contribution somewhere on the site which appears to offer the same functionality as the above util. Just wondering why there would be two methods, and which might be the best for me to use?
Thank you. |

| Torsten Hinsche | hinsche@computer-systeme.de | Question | | 2.5.1 | Elog as a service |
Is there any possibility to start elogd as a service under NT/2000/XP
having local service as its user? Yes, I've read the documentation. Maybe
things have changed.

I haven't tried `stunnel` with elog, but as far as I read from various
sources, stunnel requires you to create an SSL certificate. In attachment,
you'll find a sample case for stunnel and smtp (port 25) + pop3 (port 110).
Hope this helps.

EZ Email Security With Stunnel
by Pat Parsons
This is a little crash course in how to setup email over SSL painlessly using
Stunnel. First you need to have installed a mail transfer agent to handle the
SMTP portion of the mail. Then you need to have installed either an IMAP server
or a POP3 server. Many distributions come with Stunnel, if yours does not you
can get it from http://www.stunnel.org. Stunnel requires that you have OpenSSL
or SSLeay installed first. This should come with your distribution. Generally
if you have SSH installed you also have a SSL library.
Get and install Stunnel. I am not going into detail on that because if you are
at this point you probably already know how to do so. Make a SSL certificate
for use with Stunnel. OpenSSL provides a makefile to do just that. In my
distribution it is located in /usr/share/ssl/certs . CD to that directory and
type make stunnel.pem to create the certificate that is named stunnel.pem. Now
you need to a few lines to your rc.local file to start Stunnel at bootup
(assuming you ever reboot that is) these lines are:
/usr/sbin/stunnel -d 995 -r 110
/usr/sbin/stunnel -d 465 -r 25
This will start stunnel listening on port 995 for POP3 and 465 for SMTP. Now
all you need to do is edit the options for your mail client and there you go.
No need to worry about cleartext email passwords. If you are too impatient to
wait for the next reboot you can type the commands given previously to start
Stunnel right away. There may be some problems with certificate validation for
some email clients. Make sure when asked by the makefile you get the server
name correct. If your email client will not let you add certificates you may
need to change or obtain a certificate from a certification authority. If you
cannot get the certificate vaidation worked out there is no way to ensure that
you are connecting to the correct machine. Have a nice day.

| Chuck Brost | brost_chuck@solarturbines.com | Question | Windows | Elog V2.9. | Elog and Certs |
Elog V2.9.1-2435 if it matters.
It is time again to install the certs for SSL in Elog, and the standard openssl command line does not seem to produce the files that I need in order to get it working on my system.
I copied the file to my trusty linux server and ran the command "openssl pkcs12 -in cert.p12 -clcerts -out cert.pem " as I did last time, last time I got a nice little .crt and .key file.. this time.. no such luck.. I can get by with the guys just hitting the continue and go past the expired cert notice for a bit.. but if I cannot fix it reasonably soon.. well, it won't be pretty for me.. <grin>
Any ideas that anyone can give will be appreciated.. this is a bit outside my usual duties around here.. |

| Charles Duncan | Charles@YorkU.CA | Question | Linux | 2.5.1-1 Debian Linux | Elog Utility |
I am trying to use the Elog Utility to import a few thousand entries. So
far I have run into a few problems.
a) Cannot get elog utility to speak to elogd on port 8080. Even though I
use the -p 8080 option with elog. I was able to get it to work when I
moved my server to port 80.
b) I cannot get elog to work with and attributes or logbooks that contain
spaces. Please refer the the following example:
elog -v -h scotland.ccs.yorku.ca -p 80 -a "Station Number"="CC001" -a "Mac
Address"="000874fdc895" -a "Hostname"="cc001.cnscommons.yorku.ca" -a "IP
Address"="10.6.10.52" -a "Manufacturer"="Dell" -a "Model Line"="Optiplex" -
a "Model Number"="GX270" -a "Monitor Manufacturer"="Dell" -a "Monitor
Model"="E151FP" -a "Memory"="512MB" -a "CPU Speed"="2.6GHz" -a "Hard
Drive"="40GB" -a "Service Count"="-" -l WSC2 -u charles xxxxx "DD/MM/YY:
Change Description"
This line executes fine. Except only Hostname, Manufacturer, Memory and
text are populated in the record. All the rest of the fields are blank.
c) the only way I was able to get the transaction to work was by reducing
the size of the log book to a single word (ie WSC2).
Do I have to reduce all my attributes to single words? Or am I missing
something simple to use as a delimiter for entry??
Thanks in advance

| Alan Grant | agrant@winnipeg.ca | Question | Linux | 3.1.2 | Elog System Requirements |
In response to an elog-hang issue I've been having on the Windows platform, I am building a new Unbuntu 14 TLS VM machine to host the identical configuration so that I can more easily debug when the hang happens again. I don't mind beefing up the hardware resources to either eliminiate that as a factor or resolve the problem. I'll have a higher end CPU to deal with 20 to 50 clients doing searches through the data (since the elog configuration currently does not provide a setting to limit how far back it can search with Quick Filters - pretty please add this basic setting!), but the main question I have now is what is a good amount of memory to add to the VM? I suspect even with 30 concurrent searches going CPU power will have more impact than memory in the case of elog. Can someone please confirm my suspicion and also recommend a suitable amount of memory I should install? My data volume is about 25 MB, all textual (no attachmemts), and the number of daily files goes back about 5 years. Any other tips for the build is very welcome. |
