Hollis,
Thanks for the info. This is definitely getting me closer. I had the
indexing service installed, but not allowed in IIS. I went through
your steps and did it. That at least got me to the point where when I
tried to do a search, I got back a message of 'No Catalog'. I had
done a recalculation, but I guess it didn't work.

There are some other issues with the site and the migration. I'm
going to run the migration and post a follow-up with what I'm running
into.
