Went back to http://www.freebsd.org/search/index.html And I see that the last entry ' Freebsd mail archives search' now points to http://freebsd.rambler.ru/ So it looks like the FBSD handbook has been updated to go to this new site. And it looks like the lucky.freebsd.questions NG is being populated with the questions mailing list archives. -----Original Message----- From: owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org [mailto:owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org]On Behalf Of fbsd_user Sent: Thursday, September 25, 2003 10:09 AM To: Scott Mitchell Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.

Not one of those hits is from the FreeBSD-Questions NG. http://groups.google.com/groups?q=FBSD_User&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&hl=en&; btnG=Google+Search Looks like all the hits come from lucky-freebsd.questions. This is not the official FBSD questions NG. I emailed google and asked them, and that is the answer they gave me. -----Original Message----- From: owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org [mailto:owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org]On Behalf Of Scott Mitchell Sent: Thursday, September 25, 2003 9:51 AM To: fbsd_user Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.

A Google Groups search for your email address brings up a bunch of posts to freebsd-questions, written this year, at the top of the list. The Rambler site looks pretty good though, and I agree that it would be nice if the 'official' search worked a bit better. I seem to recall that someone was working on a replacement for it, they even put up an early version for people to play with, probably about a year ago now. Whatever happened to that?
