Can the search function be extended to any external (non-SharePoint)
websites? For example, if the search for a book in SharePoint Intranet does
not give any result, can the search be extended to external websites like
http://www.amazon.com or http://www.oreilly.com.

What configuration or implementation to be done?

Hi,

So what are the steps to do it? I created a content source for
"http://www.oreilly.com" but could not get it to work. I even activate the on
demand crawl but got an error "Could not Connect to the server. Please make
sure the site is accessible.", but the site is actually available.

Am I missing any steps? Please advise?

No response in a newsgroup means

a) haven't got an answer

b) haven't seen the question

- maybe haven't accessed the newsgroup
- maybe lost the question when changing machines
- etc.

c) various other reasons including not understanding the question

In my case it was a)

P.S. Newsgroups are not a place for requiring "urgent responses" - for this
contact Microsoft PSS or join the managed newsgroups system both of which
use Microsoft personnel who are paid to answer you.
