Combining full text search results with index server/service

I have a solutions database that I'm setting up Full text search on. Part of
the "solutions" is a huge folder of attachments on the lan.
I've done both FTS alone and also Index server alone.
Are there any whitepapers or good websites that talk about combining the
two? I'd like to conduct the searches via sql server - ideally expanding the
full text index to include the content of the files on the lan.

Please refer to the above post.
There is no white paper per se focusing on this. However you might want to
check out this paper which does touch on it.

combining data on different sevvers

I need to combine data from two different tables on two MS SQL servers
running on the same LAN into a single SELECT or VIEW. Is this possible and
what would the syntax look like?
Thanks,
Charles
MTS, Inc.Yes, quite possible. Subject to the security on both servers allowing such a
ction.
Syntax is somewhat like this:
SELECT
a.Column1
, a.Column2
, b.Column5
, b.Column6
FROM Server1.MyDatabase.dbo.MyTable a
JOIN Server2.OtherDatabase.dbo.OtherTable b
ON a.KeyColumn = b.KeyColumn
WHERE ( a.CriteriaColumn = CriteriaA
AND b.CriteraColumn = CriteriaB
)
