After a look in Search.pm, I see 2 possibilities :
* did you type an ISBN, or a title, or an author, BEFORE clicking on 
"z3950 search". Because the search can be done only on those 3 fields 
for instance.
* did you "link" ISBN & title & author MARC21 field to the corresponding 
biblio or biblioitems in mySQL table.
A 3rd possibility : what's the structure of marc_breeding table.
For me it contains a z3950random varchar(40) field (even on 200RC2 DB 
installed from scratch. i don't think there is a bug here)
