okay. that's good to know. i'll try using the apache method instead. but, there is
something wrong with the "secure" link to an example on the elog administrator's
guide. |

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

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

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. |

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