I've completed indexing about 30K documents/files, but PDFs and office
docs are still not showing meta-data. 

I'm more than a little hesitant about beginning to report bugs on 
issues such as this - I simply don't know what is supposed to work and
what isn't. For instance, I tried running "strigi" via "ssh -X" which
didn't work (presumably because "strigi" is somehow KDE internal?)  

That the preview for an office file is just a char dump must be a bug
though, but am I wrong in thinking this whole thing is somewhat
incomplete? 

More questions:

How do I enable strigi for all users (of a machine)?  
How about indexing of shared folders?
