Thanks. I've considered that. It'd be a steep learning curve for me. I have yet to get the two working together (PHP and a db), although I did manage to cobble together a php search page for my LDAP server... (I'm an old MCSE, that only recently converted...) I'll start reading....

I'd say about 30,000 files total. Mostly to eliminate the boxes of paper we have. I'd like to scan them, store them, Have some sort of index, and be able to retrieve them on multiple machines. I think PDF would be the desired format. I'd like be able to set some permissions as well. (not a deal breaker...) I've searched Sourceforge, and have seen knowledgetree, myDMS, contineo, etc, but really would like to hear from someone that is using something similar. Of course, I use Centos, so.....
