Re: [Sheflug] star open office

["richard davies" <xxxxx [at] xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have just installed Star Office 6.0 as a network install with no problems at all the command was as root
so-6_0-beta-bin-linux-en.bin -net
do custom install select everything and put it in /opt/staroffice6.0 then as user log into that directory and run set up. Worked first time no problems. Hope this helps.
