All local_user_urls does is to tell htdig how to get files for URLs like
http://www.mydomain/~user/, if htdig encounters some of these URLs.  It
does not tell htdig to read the /home directory to go looking for web
pages that are not linked to URLs in your start_urls attribute.  htdig
is a spider - it follows HTML links from one page to another, and it
never reads directories on its own.  If you want to index all the users'
home pages, you need to create a list of their URLs and feed it to htdig.

I suggest that you run htdig -i again with the 
local_user_urls:
statment commented out.  That should reveal whether the 
problem really is with local file access or is somewhere 
else.

[htdig] local_user_urls not working

2000-05-25 Thread brian . chiang

Dear Sir,

I installed the htdig on a Red Hat Linux 6.1 system.  Basically the htdig is working 
fine with the Apache server, but the local_user_urls setting never works.  As the 
attrs.html suggests, I have the following directive specified in my 
/etc/htdig/htdig.conf:
local_user_urls:http://host.mydomain/=/home/,/public_html/
I ran rundig several times but those files under /home/user/public_html never got 
indexed.  It seems that htdig just skipped that part since I could not find any thing 
related from the script of "rundig -vvv".  Any suggestions/comments?  Could you help?  
Thanks in advance.

Kind regards,
