Helios installed and got familiar with the 3.2 version of htdig
on a separate machine. To my knowledge that's more or less what was done.

It was aspseek. We did some tests & all and at some point they
said they would happily maintain a remote installation. There were potential
patent problems with their software (they claim to use the patented google

some explanations.
