This chapter discusses how you use Ultraseek Server to create a collection. For example, the Widget Web site may include a collection that searches Widget products, a collection that searches Widget employment opportunities, and a collection that searches the entire Widget Web site.
Users can choose to search in one collection, or in several.
Administrators can reserve certain collections to be searched only from special areas of the Web site. Create new collections by spidering the network, scanning the filesystem, following some Usenet groups, indexing Exchange public folders, or mirroring a remote Ultraseek collection, or merging a set of collections. Spidering the network A collection populated by spidering the network is constructed by downloading Web pages from HTTP servers, just as a Web browser does. Ultraseek Server prompts for the information on how you want your collection built. For information on the settings, refer to Managing Collections .
