Full Text Search - How do I best update Index - Merge Replication

Hi,
How do I best update a Full Text Index on SQL2000 sp3, for Merge Replication
(Push Subscription)?
Here is the config:
Site 1:
I have one table with one column (ntext), which I have created a full text
index.
The table updated once per day, data is never updated, always insert new
rows.
The table is Read-Only.
Everyone in Site 1 is happy... full text working good.
Site2: - Branch Office
I have created a merge replication, (push subscription on Site1):
We now have a copy of this read-only database/table in site #2.
I created a full text index on it, this is also working good.
Now after 24 hours, Site 1 gets 1000 new rows of data.
Since I have a push subscription, these new 1000 rows of data will get
pushed to site 2.
How do I automatic the full text index so it will add these new rows (column
data) to the full text index?
Once again, these are not updates, always new rows of data.
I would like to avoid using the Full Text Scheduler.
If I configured a Trigger on Site 2, how would it know when the 1000 rows
where finished inserting rows?
Thanks

use change tracking with update index in background on the subscriber.
