We have around 250 websites on our server and 33 of them are being
indexed using Index Server for the website search functionality. We
have a seperate server that does the indexing to take some of the load
off the hosting server. 33 catalogs seems to be the limit. Does
anyone have a solution for indexing websites on a Windows 2003 IIS web
server? The search I refer is the one someone would use to search for
content on a public website.

Thanks for reponses..

How about Google? You can use their site search, or buy their Google
Mini appliance.

You might try Lucene (http://lucene.apache.org/java/docs/index.html).
It's written in Java, but there is implementations available in other
languages. I'm sure with a bit of work it could be set up to do what
you want.

Thank you,

Use SQL Full-text search. You can store all web sites in a single table
catalog.
