  113   Fri Aug 16 10:14:19 2002 Warning Stefan Siegelssiegel@lucent.comBug report  Problem with konqueror and pulldown menu (in config menu)
Hi ,

currently I am running Elog 2.1.1; when using a konqueror browser (ver. 
2.2.1, kde 2.2.1) the admin user cannot access in the Config menu the Login 
infos for other users except himself. The pulldown menu "Select user" is 
shown, but when the admin selects another user the info fields (Login name, 
full name, email) are not updated. They still show the attribute values for 
the admin user himself.

Is there a solution available?
Thanks (also for this very useful tool) and regards,

Stefan
  134   Wed Sep 11 18:37:27 2002 Warning Stefan Siegelssiegel@lucent.comBug fix  Error with not existing user name
Hi,

Elogd v. 2.1.2:

When trying to acces a password protected Log (global password file) with a 
non existing username one gets the response : cannot open file : <pw 
filename>

Better would be a message like: wrong user or password!

Regards,

Stefan
  135   Wed Sep 11 18:44:51 2002 Warning Stefan Siegelssiegel@lucent.comBug report  Icons for sorted entries
Hi,

when do a search and then sorting the outcome of the search via clicking on 
an attribute (to sort it in descending or vice versa order) there should an 
icon be displayed (up.gif or down.gif). But the icons could not be found due 
to a wrong path to the gif files: 

/elog/config//themes/default/up.gif 

Be aware of the two slashes!! Should only be one.

Best regards,


Stefan

Ooops, I just realized that the Windows 2.2.3 distribution contained the old 
(2.2.2) executable for elogd.exe. I apologize for that. I have updated the 
elog223.exe distribution just now, so please download it again in order to 
get the new file.

  185   Mon Jan 6 19:53:28 2003 Warning Etienne Van Caillieetienne.vancaillie@mba.beBug report  security in find option as a guest
if you are guest in the find option  

select 'all logbook'

it will display all 'attributes' from other logbook 
with no option  'guest command ...'
but having the same 'attribute' name

Solution :
**********
I use the copy to command to make a copy to other logbook
with option 'guest command' enabled

in this section I remove some field so the guest user can't no see all field

I suggest to give acces to 'guest' on a second run of elog to another
port or other computer ?

I think it is very good to include this in elog, but, 
since this is also a big security risk (especially if people are
running elogd as root) I would suggest a compile time option to 
enable this, like: gcc... -DALLOW_SCRIPT ...  
The default should be that it is disabled.
Maybe one should only allow it if the user running elogd is NOT root.

  259   Wed Apr 2 05:39:45 2003 Warning Greg Siemsgregory.siems@state.mn.usBug report  Disappearing attachments
Let me start by saying that I really like ELOG-- it's a nice tool.

I'm trying out version 2.3.3. The problem that I'm having is with
attachments disappearing when I do the following:

1. create a new entry that contains one or more attachments.
2. verify that the new entry from step 1 saved correctly.
3. reply to the entry from step 1.
4. return to the entry from step 1 only to find the attachments gone.

The attachement files are still in the logbook directory, it's just that
they are no longer attached to the entry.

FWIW, I've attached the elog.config that I'm using...

Thanks,

Greg
