SSH is like a telephone call, there are two ends. Just because your copy of Putty is capable of speaking SSH does not mean that GoDaddy are going to listen -- unless you pay their fee. And, as I said before, when you _do_ get connected you are going to be typing Linux commands, all that SSH does is pass what you type to the server in a secure encrypted fashion so it can't be intercepted. From GoDaddy's website the lowest level of hosting package that allows SSH is $US38.98 a month -- and further good news is that you could install htdig easily from a package. > Regarding the editors that is no problem but do you know of another > good free one that would work ok instead of notepad?

Don't really understand how it > can corrupt htdig but if I am missing something let me know. The htdig template files contain fragments of html, but they are not complete html. Tools like Nvu will try to add the proper html headers and footers, and "fix" things that look incorrect. Only when several htdig files have been put together by htsearch does the full html emerge. If, and only if, your html editor has a plugin that says "I understand htdig syntax" should you use anything but a plaintext editor. > Before I proceed I need to make sure that htdig will let me add other > web site url's to its index, to come up in search results.

I am doing this because it's my contribution to the work that other people have put into developing htdig and distributing it for free.
