Good afternoon,

I have two different environments, a development one and a live one.

In the development one, we wortk with a Windows 2000 server and in the live
environment we have a Windows 2003.

We created a catalogue that includes 352 folders in total in both machines.

The Query tool that comes with index server was working properly with both
of them.

We have a web application that makes enquiryes to this catalogs.

We control the permissions for the folders using a database, so when we make
a query, we make it introducing all the names of the folders that the user
has permissions for in case that the user tryes to search through all the
folders:
$contents interleasing AND (
#Directory=[phisicalpath]installations\InterleasingDemo OR
 #Directory=[phisicalpath]installations\InterleasingDemo\word OR
 #Directory=[phisicalpath]installations\InterleasingDemo\SP PPT downloads OR
 #Directory=[phisicalpath]installations\InterleasingDemo\powerpoint OR
 #Directory=[phisicalpath]installations\InterleasingDemo\New Folder OR
 #Directory=[phisicalpath]installations\InterleasingDemo\mixed folders OR
 #Directory=[phisicalpath]installations\InterleasingDemo\web files OR
 #Directory=[phisicalpath]installations\InterleasingDemo\SP Miscellany OR
 #Directory=[phisicalpath]installations\InterleasingDemo\pdf OR
 #Directory=[phisicalpath]installations\InterleasingDemo\JD Excels OR
 #Directory=[phisicalpath]installations\InterleasingDemo\VIPS_co_uk .....)

The problem is that with Windows 2000 the query would return values, but in
the live environment the query wouldn't.

Is there any maximum number of folders that Index Server (in Windows 2000 or
Windows 2003) can serach through or any limitation in the size of the query?

Thank you for your help.
