Yes they are all in /etc and they all belong to root.

<input type="hidden" name="config" value="blah">
<input type="hidden" name="restrict" value="http://www.blah/";>

There is one in cgi-bin and one in /usr/bin/ which I believe is the
command line one...

I have been using it for a very long time. This happened once before
years ago and the only way to fix it was to do "rpm -Uvh" reinstalling
the same version over the top of the one that had stopped working.

I will phase out htdig soon and replace it with a pure Java search
engine using JSP for the result pages.
