We have locked down our desktops so that the users only get what we want them to have and want to give them an office product to use... We like the "free" star Office but are having problems locking down the star office desktop. Anyone else out there running SO on Terminal Server that can give me some insight into how to lock it down??
 
Only stuff I have found is from :

This comes from the Citrix How TO at:

1. Ensure that StarOffice 5.1 is installed using the command "setup -net" to perform a network install.
2. Install StarOffice 5.1 to the /opt directory.
3. Publish the application using ctxappcfg.
4. In the command line, type /opt/Office51/bin/soffice.
5. Leave the Working Directory blank. The users home directory is searched for config files.
If the user has used StarOffice 5.1 before connecting to the published application, StarOffice 5.1 starts. If the user has never used StarOffice 5.1 before connecting, the published application starts StarOffice 5.1 Setup. A Standard Workstation Installation (1.7 MB) to the user`s home directory is recommended. After installation is complete, exit the published application and reconnect to it. This now launches StarOffice 5.1.
NOTE: StarOffice can be run only once per user at a time (as a desktop or a published application).
 
Thanks TheOtherKiwi but already got that. Need to figure out how to lock it down so the users can't get to other drives and what not.... for our standard Citrix Desktop the users have no programs except whats on their desktop and they can't get to any drives except their users directory.... After loading staroffice the staroffice desktop blows that all away and gives them full access again.
