Fldigi
has an internal logbook. That log should be used for single
operator operations. There may be times that you need to share a
log, either between programs on a single computer, or with other
operators running fldigi on other computers on a LAN (or even WAN). In lieu of the internal logbook you can elect to use a common logbook server. This logbook is maintained by a separate logbook program, fllog. fllog provides access to read, query and update records via an xmlrpc socket interface. fllog provides the server function and connecting applications are clients. You need to specify both the socket address and socket port. The defaults are as shown and are for the instance when both fllog and fldigi are on a single computer. Unless configured otherwise, fllog will always use the port address 8421. |

My home network has IP address
assignments as shown. If fllog were running on the mini-mac
(fl-mac) and fldigi running on the linux-dev machine. I would
enter the server address 192.168.1.94 into the fldigi configuration for
the Client/Server Logbook. |

The
"Logbook/Connect to server" menu item allows you to connect to the
remote logbook. If successful then the toggle remains checked and
the menu items for accessing the internal logbook are disabled. |
