[cw-discuss] Crossover and LTSPFS

[Steve Cayford]

Hi,

I'm testing crossover running MS Office 2003 under LTSP 5. It works pretty
well, except that if I open an office document that is on a flash drive then
try to save it, I get an error message saying "This file is read-only." If I
try to save it on the flash drive with a different name, Office creates a 0
byte file, then crashes. The flash drive is mounted on the LTSP server using
LTSPFS.

Has anyone run into this problem or know of a way to work around it? It works
okay to copy the file to the desktop, work on it there, then copy it back to
the flash drive later, but I'm sure that my end-users are going to run into
this problem a lot.
