To speed up file search, MiKTeX makes use of a list of known file names. This list is called the file name data base (fndb). The fndb is spread over several fndb files, one for each TEXMF root directory.
The fndb file for the first TEXMF tree is called `texmf.fndb'. For the second tree it is called `texmf1.fndb'. And so on.
It is strongly recommended that you update the fndb whenever files are added to or removed from one of the TEXMF trees.
You update all fndb files by invoking configure.exe
with
the `--update-fndb' option:
configure --update-fndb
You can update a certain fndb file by specifying the TEXMF root, e.g.
configure --update-fndb c:\texmf
will update the fndb file for the tree rooted at `c:\texmf'.
