Index Server in IIS - content divisions

[Webmaster]

> We do something similar to what you want, but with only one index - there
> may be other ways.
> 
> For the main search engine we exclude from the searches the areas we don't
> ever want returned and for the sub areas we search only the specific
> areas.
> 
> For the former use CiRestriction=%if FreeText eq on% $contents
> "%CiRestriction%" &! #vpath *\_vti_* %else% %CiRestriction% &! #vpath
> *\_vti_* %endif% in the query.idq and for the latter use <input
> type="hidden" name="CiScope" value="/specificfolder"> in the page calling
> the search.
> 
> Note that this eliminates all \_vti_ from any results (since we use a
> common query.idq). So not quite what you are looking for - but a step in
> the right direction.
