Hi,

I have a NIS/NFS network running Mdk 7.1.
I tried to install StarOffice 5.2 for my users, so I installed SO (with /net
option) in /opt/office52 and chmod -R a+rx this folder, both on the server
machine and the client.. I can use it without any problem with users whose home
folder reside on the computer used to run SO.
In any other cases, either SO fails when I run the set-up script (just after
the "no java environment box) if the script is run over from a home mounted
through NFS or  when I run /opt/office52/program/soffice if I set-up first SO
from a login in the server machine and try to run if after from a NIS/NFS login.

I am all the more surprised as I can run Win apps remotely with Wine  (and
isn't Star Office a win app run with WineLib??)

Any advice? Would I be better with SO 5.1 or open Office. I do need it to
convainc my boss to run all the network with linux.

TIA

Alain.
