Integrating DWG IFilter 2007 with Microsoft Search Server 2008 Express RC SSE
 
Microsoft has released (november 2007) the Release Candidate for the new Search Server 2008 Express edition. The Search Server is a great new addition that brings a promise for an interesting time in the land of Search.
If you currently have a WSS 3.0 (or older) implementation, it is very interesting to try a SSE implementation on the side. Even if you are running a MOSS server, SSE may be a very valuable addition to your network.
 
We were very interested to see how smooth DWG IFilter installs on this product.
 
Automatically register DWG IFilter with SSE 2008 using the Configurator tool
At install time of DWG IFilter 2007, the Configurator tool is started to help you register the IFilter with current popular Search/Indexer tools. The Configurator tool can be accessed at any time.
 
The configurator tool recognizes the WSS 3.0 and MOSS compatible IFilter registration in the installed SSE 2008 RC. In the configurator tool, select the checkboxes for WSS 3.0 and MOSS, close the configurator tool; restart the OSearch service or reboot, and start a full crawl.
 
Manually register DWG IFilter with SSE 2008
To manually register DWG IFilter with SSE 2008 RC, follow the instructions for the SharePoint 2007 products. Installing DWG IFilter for WSS, MOSS 2007
