The following are answers to common questions in the Microsoft

Making Index Server work with FrontPage Search
The FP search bot was setting the catalog directory
(where everything is
indexed) to my default catalog directory, which did not
contain the discussion group directory that I wanted to
search. BTW, the FP 97 Beta 3 search bot causes an error
regarding an <%enddetail%> missing. It seems to be
fixed in the release version.
Here's what I had to do to maintain two catalogs (This
explanation assumes some knowledge of Index Server. The
web directory is the root directory for the web to be
searched):
- Create a Catalog.wci directory in the web
directory.
- Copy the srchadm directory in scripts to some
other name and create a virtual directory for it.
Modify all of the catalog references in the files
to point to the web directory.
- Copy the samples\srchadm directory to the web
directory and modify the admin directory
references to point to the new scripts
subdirectory.
- Add an entry in
...\CurrentControlSet\Control\contentindex\IsapiVirtualServerCatalog
for this web and web directory
- Add (replace) the following lines in the idq file
in the _vti_bin directory: CiCatalog=[the web
directory] CiScope=[the relative directory to
search within the web] CiFlags=SHALLOW
- Make sure you restart the server.
