Hello,

I'm looking for a search engine (under debian, for example) for my local
network.
Being abble to index many files as word, excel, pdf, ppt, txt, htm ... and
have a web interface to realize a search.

Does someone know the "perfect tool" to do that ?

thanks a lot.

Dunno know what "perfect" is, but I think 'beagle' may be what you're
seeking - http://beagle-project.org/Main_Page

What about yacy (http://www.yacy.net/yacy/)? This is a peer-to-peer
search engine written in Java with a  reat web interface which could be
used in a local network, too. But be careful, it needs a lot of memory.
