Close, but not quite.  www.sun.com/staroffice will give you a file
called so51a_lnx_01.tar.  Put this file in your /usr/ports/distfiles
directory.  Next grab ftp://ftp.hagenhomes.com/pub/so51a_port.tar untar
that file into /usr/ports/editors.  Now cd to
/usr/ports/editors/staroffice51a. as root run make all.  Next run X as
root and run make install in the port directory.  Install StarOffice to
/usr/local/Office51.  Once that is done run "make post-install" also as
root.  Now run X as the user which you normally use.  Run "make
install-user" in the ports directory.  StarOffice should now be ready to
run.
