One fairly painless way to start is with Xavatoria or Fluid Dynamics Search Engine. They're both perl scripts written by the same guy and are basically out-of-the-box search engines that even a programming idiot like me can get running quickly. The difference is the former is meant only for local indexing (i.e., it works by opening up every file in the directories on your local system and indexes them), while the latter can be used in spider mode - handy if you want to index some sites in addition to your own. http://www.xav.com/ </x-flowed>
