Webboard: Problem with file:// scheme

Hi,
I have successfully installed mnoGoSearch 3.3.4 on a Linux
server. The server also runs Samba and serves files to our
Windows clients. I would like to index these local files and
make them available to Windows clients from the search
results form, i.e. the user clicks on the result, and then
she is taken to the Samba UNC path from where she can open
or save the file. The Server and Alias commands in my
indexer.conf file are as follows:

Server file://fileserver/share/
Alias file://fileserver/share/ file:/share/

The problem is, when I search, the resulting URLs don't work
at all. I click them and get an error. Meanwhile, I changed
the configuration to

Server http://fileserver/share/

Alias http://fileserver/share/
file:/share/

But this is less than ideal because I had to make my Samba
share available through Apache. I tried to customize
indexer.conf and search.cgi as described in 
http://www.mnogosearch.org/board/message.php?id=3754, to
no avail - I believe that's because it's a very old thread
and mnoGoSearch has changed over time. I also tried the
solutions described in 
http://www.mnogosearch.org/board/message.php?id=9698 and

http://www.mnogosearch.org/board/message.php?id=4353
with no success.
If someone finds out what I'm doing wrong, plase chime in.
Thanks in advance. Kind regards,

Georger
