What does that mean? To clarify, I have a Linux machine on which I would like all the users to be able to run SO. So I did all this as root, which seems practically mandatory since I want to install it in a directory tree that will not be world-writeable at least. > Note - If you let StarOffice create the installation directory > for you, it will assign fairly restrictive access rights to it. > You'll need to apply the appropriate rights to it after installation > so you can access the installed setup program. -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1457 May 8 2000 setup -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 156044 May 8 2000 setup.bin should be enough, right? The first 3 steps <snipped for brevity> of client installation work as Herouth describes (NB: the server and the client are the same machine for me, I am just logged in as a regular user now), but the welcome window simply informs me that SO is installed already and does not offer me any installation options at all. > Basically, I run staroffice by running ~/office52/soffice, that's the > executable. Obviously, I don't get to this stage...
