Re: StarOffice 5.1a
I'd say RTFM, which you should do anyway, but the FM is pretty unclear
on the subject.
For what most people would consider a "normal" application install --
application goes to shared space, is executable by all users -- you need
to do what Sun calls a network installation:
./install /net
The "standard" StarOffice installation *only* installs StarOffice for a
single user. This is brain damaged.
You'll get an additional installation session the first time each user
runs the StarOffice executable, however this just installs the
local-to-user components of the application.
