It's not builtin to Solr, and it's only needed if you want a single master Solr instance that you update, and automated copying of the index that creates to multiple Solr slave instances (query boxes) behind some kind of load balancer or proxy for high availability or scaling traffic beyond what a single box can do. > What do you mean by hard links and rsync?

You just need to make HTTP requests from your ASP pages to Solr, get back the XML, and munge/format it correctly for your pages. -Yonik
