The size of the databases, naturally do not tell you anything about the contents of them. For example, you could have a pile of almost-duplicates due to symlinks or something along those lines. For one thing, you should be very careful when using '\' as continuation characters. They must be the last character on the line for it to be considered in this fashion. For another, you don't mention what your limit_urls_to or other limit attributes are. Naturally these could prevent the various URLs from being indexed. -- -Geoff Hutchison Williams Students Online http://wso.williams.edu/ At 6:54 PM -0800 2/7/01, Jeff Nelson wrote: >Hi, Geoff: > >Question: > >In my htdig.conf file I have it set up, for example, to get all the >discussion board messages, and I have it say: > ># start_url: `${common_dir}/start.url` ># >start_url: \ >http://www.vegsource.com/index.htm \ >http://www.vegsource.com/talk/recipes/messages/ \ >http://www.vegsource.com/mcdougall/messages/ \ >http://www.vegsource.com/talk/veganism/messages/ \ >http://www.vegsource.com/talk/health/messages/ \ >http://www.vegsource.com/talk/beginner/messages/ \ > > >What I'm finding is that it when I do a search it doesn't return any of >the many posts from the /messages/ directory.
