:$... Sorry - that is quite embarrassing.

The two you are after are:
1000      8526  0.0  0.0   1712   520 ?        S    17:56   0:00 /bin/sh
/usr/lib/openoffice/program/soffice -writer -splash-pipe=5
root      8544  5.4  6.1 174012 63372 ?        Sl   17:56   0:01
/usr/lib/openoffice/program/soffice.bin.bin -writer -splash-pipe=5

The shell wrapper soffice is being run by me, and then, without any
authentication prompt (in any case), soffice.bin.bin (the actual OOo
process) is being triggered to run as root.

Any ideas?

Kind Regards,
Matthew
