How quickly I get out of my depth; should have posted in the newbie list.

How would I know whether the partition is mounted w/out an exec option?

whereis exec shows three copies, all ending in .gz (as in exec.1.gz, exec.3.gz &
exec.n.gz).

If it helps, this was an automatic install.  I told RH 7.3 to install from CD as
a workstation on a 30g HD, wipe out all other partitions, accepted the defaults
and let 'er rip.  Nothing else has been done other than to hook up the ethernet
card to the network and pointed it to a gateway machine to download the open
office stuff.
