i still have to take home my english copy of staroffice, and try with that.
i'm absolutely sure (but i can triple check this, after a positive install
of
the english version) that the italian version i have (came in a cd with a
magazine) DOESN'T accept switches. i tried both -net and /net (and also
/NET) and it always came up complaining 'wrong switch' and quitting.
so what i should do is
run as root so52-ga..-en.bin -net and install it in -say-
/usr/local/staroffice
then for every user i want to use it, run /usr/local/staroffice/setup
is it right?

thank you for doing that

i'll tell you after the english version is installed
