The indexing function runs nightly so in /etc/cron.daily there is a perl
script buildSearchIndex.pl.  Remove this script and indexing will not
happen.

I'm not into perl, but having a look at the script, there is a bit which
goes;

# add directories to index below as needed (within quotes)
my $gIndexDirs = '"/home/users" "/home/groups"';

Changing this should allow me to restrict the scope of my index.

Cheers,  Malcolm
