I've run into a problem with Star Office 5.2: If loaded by root, with
the networking switch, it isn't available to other user accounts. This
is a known issue involving the sofficerc file and I'm not sure if there
is a reliable resolution yet. In addition, although it imports and
exports to MS Office formats fairly well there's lots of room for
improvement. I need for my Linux based word processor and spreadsheet
program to import and export to common Windows office suite formats and
to do so for multiple users via LTSP. All this got me wondering: What do
you "LTSP production environment veterans" use for word processing and
spreadsheet duties in a mixed environment with Windows Office Suite
products? 

I'm looking into Star Office 6.0 but it appears to have the same issue
as 5.2. I'm also considering Open Office but don't know enough if it's
"issues" yet. So, what do 'yall use and recommend for a situation like
this?

Thanks Much
