Hi - For a basic index, there isn't much involved in modifying your config file. Just open htdig.conf with your favorite editor and look for an attribute named 'start_url'. Change the value of that attribute to the starting URL for your dig (e.g. http://www.yoursite.com/). Then execute rundig with verbose output (e.g. rundig -vvv). If you continue to have problems, carefully read the verbose output; most likely it will point you in the direction of the problem.
