Why does it not search the whole site? 1) If you're indexing through HTTP, then htdig doesn't need to know about aliases--the webserver just hands off pages for specified URLs. If you want to index through the filesystem, you'll need to specify appropriate mappings: http://www.htdig.org/attrs.html#local_urls 2) Most likely, you haven't told it to index the whole site. From what you've said, I *think* you've done something like this: start_url: http://www.foo.de/bar/ limit_urls_to: ${start_url} With this limit_urls_to attribute, only URLs starting with http://www.foo.de/bar/ will match, so that directory and subdirectories will be indexed. Anything in other directories won't match the pattern and will be ignored. http://www.htdig.org/attrs.html#limit_urls_to -- -Geoff Hutchison Williams Students Online http://wso.williams.edu/ ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ htdig-general mailing list <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, send a message to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> with a subject of unsubscribe FAQ: http://htdig.sourceforge.net/FAQ.html
