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.
