Hi:
I am running 4.0-RELEASE and I mount my msdos partition (Windows 98 SE) with 
the following in /etc/fstab:
	/dev/ad0s1	/msdos	msdos	rw,longnames	0     0

I then have access to the msdos partition: the KDE filemanager can move 
through the directories and the KDE editor can open and edit files.

When click on File->Open in StarOffice, however, it does not display all of 
the files and directories (for example, the MyDocuments folder is not 
displayed) and when I bring up a MS Word file (which happens to be under the 
MyDocuments folder), it is read-only.

Has anyone had problems like this?  Does anyone know why StarOffice is 
acting like this?

Thanks for any help.

John
