Hello Joe,

For my installation (3.1.6) on a UNIX system, I have two scripts that I use and they seem to work pretty well for me. I can't say that this is the best solution, but it might get you on your way.

I run rundig.www.full once a week via cron with the -a flag (rundig.www.full -a) and rundig.www.update daily via cron. If you want to use the same scripts, make sure to change some of the settings in the scripts to reflect your environment:

  rundig.www.full
        - DBDIR=/htdig-3.1.6/db
        - COMMONDIR=/htdig-3.1.6/common
        - BINDIR=/htdig-3.1.6/bin

  rundig.www.update
        - BASEDIR=/htdig-3.1.6
        - REPORT_DEST="[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Hope this helps.

  Regards,
  Howard Kim

Respectfully, I need a plain English, step by step answer to how to re-index a web site that has your program installed on it and has some new pages added and dead pages removed. The search utility does not reflect those changes, apparently because the files should be re-indexed. I have inherited management of the web site. I've have read the docs word for word despite the fact that I understood less than 5% of it.

I need to know exactly where to go and what to do. Instructions that say run "rundig" are useless because I do not know how to run it. Run it where and how?

I have server access. Should I go to some page in a Control Panel and enter "rundig" in some field? Or is this something I can launch on my desktop and then FTP the results to the server?

I'd like to learn how to do this but I need a recognizable starting point. I will greatly appreciate some guidance in identifying that starting point and the initial steps.

TIA
