You don't have web access? The URL above leads to the answer, which I had
added to the FAQ just before replying to you then. Here it is...
5.35. When running htdig on Mandrake Linux, I get "host not found" and
"no server running" errors.
The default htdig.conf configuration in Mandrake's RPM package of
htdig very stupidly enables the local_urls_only attribute by default,
which means you can only index a limited set of files on the local
server. Anything else, where htdig would normally fall back to using HTTP,
will fail. To make matters worse, they put a very misleading comment above
that attribute setting, which throws users off track. This attribute
is useful in certain circumstances where you never want htdig to fall
back to HTTP, but enabling it by default was a very bad judgement call
on Mandrake's part.
In the FAQ, "local_urls_only" is a link to
http://www.htdig.org/attrs.html#local_urls_only, which describes the
attribute correctly.
