[triggerfish]

Hi,
I would like to change the message in the logon box for the network server. Would like to tell people how to get the password. Can't find ho to do that.
Please advice.

The login message is controlled by the web browser, not the server. The only thing the server can change is the "Authentication domain", which for calibre is "Your calibre library". If you want to change the authentication domain you must run from source. See http://manual.calibre-ebook.com/develop.html. Once you have a running source version, change the file src/calibre/library/server/base.py at line 194 to say what you want. I wouldn't be surprised if web browsers choke if you make it overly long.

As an aside, I hope that you aren't setting up a general book sharing site. Piracy isn't cool.

Gonna try that. And NO, it's not a general book sharing site. No copyrights are breached. I just want to keep the whole world out of it and limit access to people I allow on it. That is just not a fixed, predefined group.
Thanx, Peter
