  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
  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

From Version 2.1.2 on you have the option "ROptions = ..." for that.

Well, that's how it should be. All other systems I know like Windows NT 
Login, Linux login etc. are case-sensitive, so we should follow that standard.

I have asked Fred Pacquier who maintains the web pages to put something on, 
but he hasn't replied.

Basically you simply run "elconv" in the directory where all the *.log files 
live. The only option is the "-v" flag for verbose output. If you have 
several directories with log files, you run it once in each directory.

This operation is done via Java Script, which has to be enabled in the 
browser. If anybody knows a better way, please let me know.
