There are lots of existing ways of searching an admin guide.

First, most web search engines can be told to localize their search to a set of pages. For instance: http://www.google.com/search?q=site:www.openldap.org/doc/admin24+rwm

Not everyone knows how to do that. And in some cases such a Google search gives a better interface than a browser search, since it can show all resulsts together, with some context. The HTML seems easy enough - I derived this from a "search within results" form in a Google search:

<form action="http://www.google.com/search"> <input type=hidden name=q value="site:openldap.org/doc/admin24"> <input type=text name=as_q size=31 maxlength=256 value=""> <!-- optional --><input type=submit name=btnG VALUE="Search Admin Guide"> </form>

I don't know how easy it is to auto-insert it in the Guide though. (Could easily be put as a third column in the /doc/index.html table I imagine.)
