Everything Server Setup

[gmknowles]

It appears I set this up correctly. How do I test this?

[void]

To connect to an Everything Server:

• On another computer, in Everything, from the Tools menu, click Options.
• Click Network Index on the left.
• Click Add....
• Type in the host name or IP, for example: server or 192.168.0.10
• Click OK.
• Set the username (leave blank to use the default user account).
• Set the password (it must match what was set on the Everything Server).
• Click OK.

Everything will index the server above.
This will take a few seconds.
Please try searching for a file on the server.
Are there any results shown from the Server?


You can remap paths on either the server or the client.

I'm getting indexed ok; but cannot browse the path, access the files. Is that the intended use?

[void]

You will need to create a share on the server and setup a remap on either the server or client.

For example:

On the server you have a folder:

D:\Media

This folder is shared as Media



To create a remap on the server:

• In Everything, from the Tools menu, click Options.
• Click Everything Server under Plugins on the left.
• Under Include only, click Add....
• Set the Path to the local server path for example: D:\media
• Set the Remap to the network share, for example: \\server\media
• Click OK.
• Click OK.

-or-



To create a remap on the client:

• In Everything, from the Tools menu, click Options.
• Click Network Index on the left.
• Select server.
• Under Include only, click Add....
• Set the Path to the local server path for example: D:\media
• Set the Remap to the network share, for example: \\server\media
• Click OK.
• Click OK.

'Everything' is working as far as I can tell. Including 'Everything Server'. So cool
