Mr Zesty's Brain Dump: Install StarOffice

Install StarOffice

This will be a short document because I keep forgetting the option to set up a network install of StarOffice (to share between users).

Download StarOffice from www.sun.com. Execute it (as root) with the -net switch.

./so-5_2-ga-bin-linux-en.bin -net

Install into /usr/local/office52

Now as a regular user, run /usr/local/office52/program/setup and install the necessary client files.
