We built a test like this with CentOS, Samba, Fuse, Lucene and Apache that worked very much like Google Desktop search. It worked really well but at the end of the day we are not a software company and didn't pursue this further.
Let me know if you want me to search for our old notes on this test. | Larry Velez | www.sinu.com | -----Original Message----- From: samba-boun...@lists.samba.org [mailto:samba-boun...@lists.samba.org] On Behalf Of Harondel J.

It needs to be able to fully index word, excel, openoffice and text files at a minimum. It should also have some form of ACL control so that only certain users can actually search the index for specific smb shares. In this particular instance, there is a general office share which everyone should be able to use and a partners/owners/managers share which should be restricted. Staff are running Linux, Mac OSX and Windows. So far googling's found me this IBM OmniFind Yahoo! Edition is a no-charge enterprise search software solution that enables rapid deployment of intranet and file system search for both employees and customers. http://omnifind.ibm.yahoo.net/productinfo.php However this product only officially supports RH and SUSE.
