The directory you are referring to is /etc/skel
but I do not think your StarOffice settings are going to stick. There is
other magic at play there. I would like to deploy OO ver 2.0 beta but I
have not had much luck freeing up the users from having to go through
the setup routine. Personally, I'd love to know how to customize OO /
Star and be able to make changes globally.
There are other customizations that don't stick from skel, FireFox for
instance.
I think if you make changes to skel and then run the resest-all-desktops
script, the changes are pushed out to your existing users as well as all
newly created users. Handy for tweaking.
