PDF full-text search does not work in a Server Farm

Have one server set as a job server and a second one as a
DB server.
Documents are stored in document libraries.
iFillter is installed on both servers but PDF full text
search is not working for PDF files when searching under
specific document library. It does work when using Portal
Search on a portal level. As soon as I get on a
site/subsite level it fails.
Also WSS and Portal full-text searches work for all
office documents on all levels.

Have identical setup on a single server and everything
works fine.

Any ideas??

Problem resolved. MS helped us out.
The full-text catalog for the site database had to be
rebuilt.
On Windows SharePoint Services central administration
under Component Configuration click on Configure full-
text search-> uncheck the Enable full-text search and
index component check box. Click OK. Check off the same
check box and hit OK again.
Note: PDF iFilter has to be installed on the database
server.
