Hi List,

Our application development team is trying to use InterMedia Text for text searching against a CLOB field that requires calling external procedure to create domain index. So we need to configure the listener for external procedure (extproc). However, our administrator says that it's NOT a good idea because this opens a security hole on the machine. The interface had been removed as part of addressing security issues in previous patches. I was wondering how you use external procedure. If you don't use external procedure, how do you search text against CLOB field?

Thanks in advance for any input.
