That's whacked. The only thing I can think to explain that is the "include" that someone else mentioned. > In addition, I get results from both.

What about using "exclude_urls" in your config file. You could then eliminate the top level directories from your main site (assuming you don't have 100s or 10s of them for that matter). I've successfully used exclude_urls to help strip out formatting parameters. e.g. font_size=100, font_size=200. You know, silly stuff that shouldn't be there... I also just noticed this one: limit_urls_to It might help you (although the default value is the start_url). More info here: http://htdig.org/attrs.html#limit_urls_to > Oh, also, the database is one of the few changes between the > two config files, and when I use the default config file only the > default database is searched but when I use the alternate config > file, then both. As was already suggested by someone else. Look for "include" in your new config file. The other thing would be to rerun the crawl with the new config file and use -i to create your databases from scratch. Maybe there's leftover stuff that really shouldn't be there from a previous gaffe but you've not dumped yet. emma -- Emma Jane Hogbin [[ 416 417 2868 ][ www.xtrinsic.com ]] ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.NET email is sponsored by: SourceForge Enterprise Edition + IBM + LinuxWorld = Something 2 See! http://www.vasoftware.com _______________________________________________ htdig-general mailing list <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, send a message to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> with a subject of unsubscribe FAQ: http://htdig.sourceforge.net/FAQ.html
