Re: [users] windows server 2008 - thin client install
The WS2008 installing bloke just installed OO.o as a normal app and it works on all thin client logins no problems. I only need to get program install privileges to add the dictionaries. Locked down users can't install them and i can't install them system wide. I do need to run through the licence/registration steps on a per user basis which is a pain, but i am putting an OO.o Writer shortcut on every desktop for them anyway. Have you read the OOo Admininstration Guide on this? http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/Administration_Guide/Deactivating_Registration_Wizard You can use an Extension (provided on that Wiki page) to disable the Registration Wizard.

I note that a few questions have come up on the subject, but very few answers. You might find some information about OO.o with citrix ( now what Presentation something? ) but will that help you with WS2008, don't know. Anyway a search for Terminal Server or Citrix at OOoForum brings up a bunch of hits and the same will get a few hits at the community forum. A quick ( very quick ) review shows that some folks seem to be running just fine and some having lots of problems...lol...so what's new. One thing that I can't find is a decent "how to" or tutorial on the subject. ( doesn't mean there isn't one to be found though ) If you are getting ready to do a deployment maybe you could keep that in mind and offer back your experiences - the Wiki would be a great place for something like that IMO.
