change url of search result page
We have a MOSS 2007 internet site. Someone created mistakenly an intranet site collection in this web application and did some work - I will call it location 1 in the following text.
Now I created a new web application just for intranet. And backup the orginal intranet site collection and restored to the new web application as a top site collection, I will call this location 2.
It works fine except the search box. Since in location 1, the searchresult page is : http://www.mycompany.com/sites/intranet/searchresult.aspx.
after I restore it to the new site, it's still pointing to something similar like the old address: http://intranet.mycompany.com/sites/intranet/searchresult.aspx.
But I got a page cannot found message in location 2. But if I manully enter url http://intranet.mycompany.com/sites/intranet/searchresult.aspx. it will show the result.
Where in the code I can change the URL of search result page? to http://intranet.mycompany.com/sites/intranet/searchresult.aspx.
I know we have a customized web master page, and at the top corner of it, there is a search box, but I cannot find where to change the url address of search result page?

- If the search specific stuff was not customized, then you will find the setting in the Site Collection Administration menu (Site Actions, Site Settings), click the Search Settings link and configure as necessary.

- Wow, that's very helpful. I didn't expect it's so easy to change here. I thought some code has to change in the search box web part that I never figured out.
Thank you!
