I'm using a spider+indexer to index my wiki, and some other sites as well: http://www.sphider.eu/ It finds the pages with IP addresses as well, and indexes them. However, it also returns zero results when I try to search for IP addresses. I realize this is beyond the scope of the list, but it is a bit peculiar. Actually, it's kinda annoying. :) I installed the sphider and database on a new CentOS 6.3 install, so MySQL should be current.
