Hi.
LO won't let me use $USER in the documents path.
If you only have 1 user per machine, can you put documents in /mnt/share
If it is the same share for all users do you need the $USER.
If you create the directory /mnt/share then LO should have no problems
with the path if the share fails to mount as it is just an empty
directory until the mount.
I created a folder in our users home directories called network. In this
I created folders dropbox, QA, production, etc. to which I mount our
various network shares. I found it was easier for our users to find
network in their home folder than look for mnt.
I add lines into each users .profile file to mount the shares at log on,
make .profile owner root and readable only by user.
((mount|grep //10.2.1.249/public) || /sbin/mount.cifs
//10.2.1.249/public /home/steve/network/stardom/public -o
username=steve%password,noperms,nosetuids,rw)
I did not want users to have to reboot to re-mount so I did not mount
the share at startup.
/sbin/mount.cifs has to be chmoded u+s to enable users to run it at logon.
Is the mount samba or nfs? Just change above as necessary.

I use Ubuntu 10.04 LTS, so here is what I would do:
Go to Tools>Options>LibreOffice>Path
Then I would click on the "My Documents" path for
"/home/timothy/Documents" [timothy is my user "home" folder]
You should be able to edit that page to any mounted drive/folder. The
thing is you must make sure that the network drive, where that default
folder is, is mounted before you use LibreOffice. I do not know what
would happen if that network-share folder is not mounted when LO
"asks" to use it.

May I ask, why you are deploying a Unity based desktops? I tried it
and as a power user, I hated it. I prefer GNOME 2.32 or KDE over
anything like Unity's desktop.

Hi!
I am deploying Ubuntu 11.10 with LO 3.4.3 on a large number of
computers. We
also mount a network share under /mnt/$USER/Share. I would like to
set this
path, on a system-wide basis as the default save folder for LO. How
can this
be done?
Best regards Jon Lachmann
