cflucene works but last time I checked it only worked against lucene 1.4 (not version 2.0 which is where the project is up to now).
For the actual indexing phase, I recommend doing it all in java because you won't have to write wrappers for all the classes AND it can take a LONG time to index and (IMHO) I don't think a web based language is your best choice for tasks like that. This was my experience with cfmx and lucene. In your lucene index you can add whatever field you want to any record or item within it. So adding security will simply work like adding a security column in a database. To look at your lucene index, I highly recommend LUKE (http:// www.getopt.org/luke/) - this will let you open and search an index without having to write your own app. Its probably worth mentioning that php can now view and interrogate lucene indexes (built by java) by using the Zend Framework (http:// framework.zend.com/manual/en/zend.search.lucene.html) I'm happy to push you code to index pdf's and the office suite.
