WARNINGS¶
elogd is run under a separate user/group
elog , by default. You
might change it via
Usr and
Grp options in configuration file.
The configuration and stylesheet files should be readable by that user.
Passwords are transferred over the network in plain text and therefore, are not
secure. So if passwords are used
elogd should be started with the SSL
option in the configuration file for secure connections.
