Hi all, I am posting this to this mailing list because many of you might be already using udmsearch and I am hoping on getting some help.
the setup I have is as follows, in udm search config I set it to index www.earlham.edu/archive and that does the public archives just fine.
so for private mailing lists I set it to indexwww.earlham.edu/mailman/private and that won't work because it asks for a listname. If I put a list name, (time comsuming for many lists) I am stuck with username and passwd. there is a way in udmsearch to authenticate using AuthBasic but that is not working with mailman.
I though that I could do an apache ScriptAlias so that I can get to the private index list with something like www.earlham.edu/privatearchives/ this would work to index pages in udmsearch. But I don't want those archives public, so I put a htaccess passwd on it. and I can use the udmsearch capabilites to authenticate with htaccess.
so now udm search lists the urls it found as
http://www.earlham.edu/privatearchive/admstaff/October2000/msg00007.html
I click on it, is asks for the htaccess passwd. And that won't work for people.
Is there a way to make www.earlham.edu/mailman/private/ list all the lists? or if I am taking a very bad approach to this. Please let me know.
Thanks a lot for any help
Nick
