I would have mailed you but my mailer complained.  I am aware of a company
that makes what you want.  It is called VERITY and their program is
called TOPIC.  I have seen it demoed and it is quite impressive.  It runs
on PCs, Suns, VAXen, Pyramids, and other U*nix systems.  I am friends with
the founder of the small company so I may be biased but you SHOULD give it
a looksee.  The sales office in the east is in New York 212 551-3511 or
you can call headquarters in Mt. View 415 960 7600. 
Good Luck
