Actually this is related. When starting OpenOffice with a home directory located on an NFS server which doesn't support file locking, the ~/.openoffice.org/3 directory isn't created correctly, leading to non-working keys. > OOo expects locking to work and fails if it doesn't.

It has been fixed in OpenBSD 4.4, and now everything works perfectly for me. Thanks! -- Thomas Lecomte
