Weired problem. Openoffice opens files read only from a NFS mounted drive. Premissions are all ok. I can delete, create, and over wright files fine.

Edit /usr/lib/openoffice/program/soffice and comment out the following lines

Code:
SAL_ENABLE_FILE_LOCKING=1
export SAL_ENABLE_FILE_LOCKING


That will disable file-locking in OpenOffice.org and solve your problem.
