How does SharePoint Services 3.0 Search work?

I understand the following elements:

  • there is some scanning (configured in central administration)
  • there is a slight delay when crawling, after which you can display the search results.

But in a document library with publishing enabled, documents that are not published do not appear in search results. This is normal?

All content is scanned using the default access account. In most cases, this is a special account and SharePoint grants it Full Control permissions.

Sorry, unapproved items are not displayed to "read users". Therefore, it will index the latest published version.



However, you cannot grant more rights to this user. If you do, it will always index the unpublished item without indexing the latest version of the post. Therefore, a user without permission permissions will not be able to search for these items.

I had similar search problems, I assigned the domain service account to the content access account and allowed items that serach could not find, I think it has to do with the users manipulating the page and removing all rights.
