   When I tried to install OO with the -net option it kept giving me an
error. After digging through the setup script I discovered it's turned on by
default.

   Question to Bill: Did you *INSTALL* a JRE? (Java Runtime Engine) OO
allows you to install itself without having a JRE but a *LOT* of stuff will
be broken. I discovered this the hard way preparing for my Samba
presentation last month. I used the one from Sun. Also, OO does NOT come
with a JRE. It's up to you to go find it.
