You need Samba to put the document in a LInux server for the 'other
side' but you do not need to use Samba for your web application.
On demand solution. User clicks button on Admin page and find picks up
all new documents since last search, registers them in database.
grepping out the word info (assumed) would be very handy here.
Now you have your database of documents link away using your new
application.
Periodic solution, find on the entire file system and flag deleted
documents and add new documents, can be in combination to the on demand
solution.
Just some thoughts,
