DESCRIPTION
       The  Electronic Logbook ELOG can	be used	to store and retrieve messages
       through a Web interface.	Depending on the configuration,	the ELOG  sys-
       tem can host one	or more	logbooks which are stored in separate sections
       on  the	server.	  elogd	 is the	daemon program serving as a simple web
       server for the ELOG system.

OPTIONS
       elogd accepts the following options:

       -C url clone remote elogd configuration

       -c file
	      specify configuration file

       -D     become a daemon

       -d directory
	      specify logbook root directory

       -f file
	      specify PID file

       -M     synchronize with removing	deleted	entries

       -m     synchronize logbook(s) with remote server

       -n host
	      host where elogd will run

       -k     do not use keep-alive

       -l logbook
	      specify logbook for `-r' and `-w'	commands

       -p port
	      port where elogd will run

       -S     be silent

       -s directory
	      specify resource directory (eg. themes, icons)

       -v     debugging	output

       -x     enable execution of shell	commands (unless  compiled  with  this
	      feature)

SEE ALSO
       elog(1).

       The  full  documentation	 for ELOG is maintained	as an html manual. You
       can reach it from the package document directory.

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 configura-
       tion 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.
