I'm trying to use a different config file in order to search a different
database than the default.  But it seems that I can't stop the default
config file from being read in addition to the new one.  

I've created a new config file and new database:

  % ls -l /etc/htdig*
  -rw-r--r--  1 web   web     8632 May  9  2002 /etc/htdig.conf
  -rw-r--r--  1 web   web     8656 Jan 21 19:43 /etc/htdig-newweb.conf

  %  ls -l /web/htdig
  drwxr-xr-x    2 web     web         4096 Jan 23 03:05 db
  drwxr-xr-x    2 web     web         4096 Jan 23 15:29 db-newweb


My search form for the non-default database has this:

  <input type="hidden" name="config" value="htdig-newweb">


The problem is not that the config file isn't found, but that
now both config files are read:

Here are the access times before running a search:

  % ls -lut /etc/htdig*
  -rw-r--r--  1 web     web     8632 Jan 23 15:30 /etc/htdig.conf
  -rw-r--r--  1 web     web     8656 Jan 23 15:29 /etc/htdig-newweb.conf

and after:

  % ls -lut /etc/htdig*
  -rw-r--r--  1 web     web     8632 Jan 23 15:36 /etc/htdig.conf
  -rw-r--r--  1 web     web     8656 Jan 23 15:36 /etc/htdig-newweb.conf

Why are *both* conf files being read?  That wouldn't be much of a
problem if I wasn't getting results reported from *both* databases...

How can I perform a different search from only one different database?

Thanks...
