Open Enterprise Server 2 includes the Novell QuickFinder Server. QuickFinder lets you add search functionality to any Web site or internal intranet. It can index and find matches within a wide variety of data types. It also supports rights-based searches so that users see only what they have rights to see, depending on the type of index created and the file system indexed.
QuickFinder replaces the NetWare Web Search Server that was available in NetWare 6.5 SP3 and earlier. When you upgrade a NetWare server running NetWare Web Search Server to NetWare 6.5, Web Search Server is automatically upgraded to QuickFinder. The upgrade identifies all the configuration settings and indexes from Web Search and enables them to be used by QuickFinder.
When indexing a file system, the QuickFinder engine indexes only what it has rights to see. On NetWare, it has full access to all mounted volumes. On Linux, it has rights to only the files that the wwwrun user and the www group have rights to see.
