Dear Przemek,
you might like to give Xlex/www a try, which is freely available for
non-commercial purposes. Xlex/www is a web-based interface to a suite of
Unix/Linux command line tools (tokenizer, index, POS tagger, concordancer,
statistical analysis, etc.). For password-restricted access, the web
server can be used (e.g. the .htaccess mechanism in the Apache server).
Installation should be particularly straightforward on a PC with any
current Linux distribution. Of course, access is possible from any WWW
client in the network. For more information, have a look at
<http://xlex.uni-muenster.de>. If you'd like to get the distribution,
just drop me a line.
Best, Hendrik.
