Is there a way to make local Everything search a ETP server by default? Since I use a NAS that I run Everything on, I don't really care about searching my local machine. It's a small thing, but I wondered if I could make it default to the ETP server instead of having to tell it to connect whenever I start the client/re-open the window after accidentally closing it.
So more specifically, is that what configuring the network_index_* settings in the INI would do?
Thanks!
Use ETP server by default(INI?)
Re: Use ETP server by default(INI?)
To set Everything to connect to an ETP server by default:
To do this with the everything.ini:
Set home_index to
(1 = enable home index)
Set index to
(2 = ETP server)
Set index_etp_server to
Set index_link_type to
(0=C:; 1=\\server\C; 2=\\server\C$; 3=ftp://server/c)
network_index_ is for the Everything Server (Not ETP server)
- In Everything, from the Tools menu, click Options.
- Click the Home tab on the left.
- Set the Index to: ETP server
- Set the ETP server to: username:password@host:port
(just use host if you are not using a username and password and the port is the default) - Set the preferred link type.
- Click OK.
To do this with the everything.ini:
Set home_index to
1(1 = enable home index)
Set index to
2(2 = ETP server)
Set index_etp_server to
