My suggestion isn't very "OpenOffice friendly" but it may serve your need
perfectly.  Look into Google's DRIVE facility.  It lets multiple users
operate on a file simultaneously without any conflict.  I've used it with
great success in maintaining a very large membership file.  It is very easy
to use, and it's feature rich.

Subject: Intersting Problem related to remote access to openoffice 3.1.1

Everyone,

I have a server with centos 5.10 that has openoffice 3.1.1.  I am trying to
use openoffice as a text editor trough a gui interface with various versions
of fedora.  The fedora machines connect remotely via ssh -Y
util...@server.com through a konsole window.   The problem that is
present occurs when two different users connect to the same account on the
server ie util...@server.com or if the same user connects twice to the
server using the same account and starts openoffice in both konsole panels.
When this occurs the temporary files that openoffice creates get corrupted
which causes both edits to fail.  

Is there a way to cause openoffice to create different temporary files when
two or more users are opening files via openoffice on the same account on
the server.  I did not want to be required to create different accounts on
the server for each remote user, and I would like the users to be able to
open more than one openoffice on the same account.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.
