That was quick -- thanks Sam!

Yeah, the guy who set it up left.

It seems to work well.  I'll leave for later, but thanks for the
suggestion!

Does it?  Can you explain a bit more?

Let me take the step to cvs-controlled xemacsweb/cgi-bin configuration
first, if that's OK with you.

Sam, could you please change the synlink

(xemacweb at gwyn) /archives/http-xemacs $ ls -l cgi-bin
ls -l cgi-bin
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           24 May 18 09:27 cgi-bin -> /web/http-xemacs/cgi-bin
(xemacweb at gwyn) /archives/http-xemacs $ 

to point to /web/http-xemacs/xemacsweb/cgi-bin

OK, I've made a note of that.

Sam, another issue:

Back when I wrote
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.xemacs.beta/14981/match=web+list+search+broken
I was able to find matches over maultiple years for xemacs-beta.

Now the index only goes back to May 2004.

See for yourself:
http://list-archive.xemacs.org/cgi-bin/wilma_glimpse/xemacs-beta?query=have+been%23released&Search=Search&errors=0&maxfiles=50&maxlines=10&.cgifields=lineonly&.cgifields=restricttofiles&.cgifields=filelist&.cgifields=partial&.cgifields=case

Is there a chance will still have an intact index up to April or so?

I have no clue what could have cause the index loss between Jun 6 and
Jun 11 (when I noticed the missing matches), as documented in
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.xemacs.beta/15035/match=web+list+search+broken

Regenerating the index starting at 1998 would be a drag, I guess.

Best regards,

Adrian
