Well thanks for the help anyway, I appreciate it. Let me check a couple of
things out and I'll leave a message about it here soon. Are you familiar with
putty? It will give me ssh access, I am talking to the owner of it right now.

OK, we're not able to do it with a "nice" installer
then, but it _can_ be done through ftp with some effort. Next we need
to know which directories you can write to. Particularly can you
write to the /usr/local hierarchy?

Neither of those will do
what you need. Notepad it is then :-( Please note: you must NOT
touch any htdig files with HTML-kit or Nvu! You will completely screw up
the results display if you do.
To be honest I think you are going
to find this a long, hard, incomprehensible struggle. It took me
nearly a couple of days work to get an installation working under these
circumstances, and I was already very familiar with Red Hat. I could
do it again quite a lot faster, but it is very dependent on how the GoDaddy
control panel and virtual server stuff works. This is nothing to do
with htdig or the normal way it's packaged and installed, it is because you
are installing into an environment in which you have very little permission
to do anything because you are sharing it with possibly dozens of other
users and there are very careful precautions to keep all these users from
interfering with each other.
It is going to help you a lot if
you find someone who is familiar with Unix filesystems at the command-line
level, and who can use a text editor. Presumably you have chosen
htdig rather than something like the Google service because you want to
customise the results, and that requires very careful editing of the
configuration and template files. I repeat, HTML-kit and Nvu will NOT do
the job.
