then you likely want either:

XML:
<record>
  <attribute1>unix</attribute1>
</record>

config:

UndefinedMetaTags auto
MetaNameAlias attribute1 title


OR:

XML:
<record>
  <title>unix</title>
</record>

config:

UndefinedMetaTags auto
MetaNames title


It all depends on the structure of your XML, how you want to name your 
metanames, and if/whether you can filter your XML prior to indexing.

(I'm sure others have other more creative suggestions...)
