Thank you for that...

Finally I got rid of that UI error, now I am using Server A for Indexing content and Server B for serving search queries. When I started with automatic option it said it couldnt start propogation, so i opted for manual stsadm

I used the below to start:
stsadm -o osearch -action start -role query

Now the new error is "Object reference not set to an instance of an object"
your help in this is highly appreciated.

Eventhough it says "Object ref not set to an insta...." in the central admini its says the service started on Server B.
