Hi,
This may be a bug with Open Office 2.0 ?

On the file here, you can see that I didn't succeeded in working on
remote disks. The error message says there is an input/output error.
It's impossible to open or to save a file on a remote disk.
Nevertheless the file is created on the remote disk, with the good name,
but it is empty. On the error message Ooo speaks about a file "sans
nom1", althought I gave it, a name.
On my local disk all is OK.
I work in a large company, 100% Windows and Office Microsoft ; So I
tried to face the dictatorship with my Macintosh, but we work primarily
on data distributed on remote disks : I cannot thus, use Ooo because of
this error.
Ooo is great. Congratulations for this very great work.

From the "general i/o error" in your screenshot, and just a wild guess:
Could it have anything to do with NFS and file locking (see issue
54586)? If your remote access is via NFS, and if OOo on Mac uses file
locking as it does on Linux and Solaris (I have no idea), you could try
the following: In the soffice script (in OOo's program directory),
comment out the lines
SAL_ENABLE_FILE_LOCKING=1
export SAL_ENABLE_FILE_LOCKING
by prefixing them with '#'. (If there are no such lines, it probably
means that OOo on Mac does not use file locking...)
