IPS4 - Help with sphinx - stop / starting and configuring the config location

[RevengeFNF]

I just use the /usr/bin/searchd.

[tekguru]

Yeah but I want my config file where I can get at it without needing root access.

Why are you using indexer?  Did searchd start?  If yes, rebuild the index and test.

And that has us fully operational, thanks for the assistance guys!

So to close this out, can you guys confirm that this looks okay (seems to be running fine):
