File server search

[Guest John]

I am not sure where to post this question but I suspect I will get a few...

different suggestions. We have an AD domain with 2003R2 servers, and many

files stored on server file shares. We would like to use search to look for

words inside documents (mostly MS Word, som MS Excel). Most of the clients

are XP pro. The search from the clients works sporadically. When we say to

search the contents all of the files in a folder and sub-folders sometimes

it finds it and sometimes not even though you know it is there. Is there a

tool or a better way to do this where the files are?

 

TIA

Hi,

 

You could try Microsoft Search Server 2008 Express:
