To create a multiuser install: 1.) run "setup -net" as root. Install to, say, /opt/openoffice 2.) Every single user now runs "/opt/openoffice/setup" (without the -net parameter; I may have got the location under /opt/openoffice wrong) 3.) IIRC the installing user is then asked if he wants to create a full local install (able to run without /opt/openoffice available) or a (traditional unix-style) install, were only some files are put into $HOME -- I did not vote for the Austrian government -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
