From SME Server

This is my first attempt at a HowTo so please bear with me and help improve it ...
I needed a document search facility for my users, essentially to make them able to search through various notes, memos etc. available on the web server. I found a usable script at www.kscripts.com, and have adjusted it a bit to make it more feasible for the SME-server, so I have produced a new file package you can get here: http://ibsgaardenprivat.dk/ksearch1.5b.tgz
Here is a copy of my new README, part of the file package:

#* Add terms you want to IGNORE to the search engine stop terms list, on separate lines. =NOTE=: After indexing, you may discover terms you don't want to include in your search engine. You may later come back and add terms to the file -- however, you'll need to re-index your website using indexer.cgi

# As an alternative to doing indexing via a browser and the indexer.cgi script, you may do indexing from a command line with indexer.pl. For this to work, you will probably need to change the line in indexer.pl, starting with "my $configuration_file" to make sure it points to the correct configuration file.
