Running a domain with about 300+ users. Students have mandatory profile and faculty/staff/admin just have normal profiles. Anyways, when installing office 2k for the first time, who should i log in as?

I usually log in as the local administrator of the machine (NOT onto the domain as the domain admin). Then SOME users
would try to run word, only to find themselves stuck since office prompts them for the CD. Now, I installed ALL features onto the hard drive, so I can't figure out why it's doing this.

You have to logon with Administrative rights to install.

Are these NETWORK Share OFFICE installs, Image dumps, or
installed from the CD directly on the user machine?

installing directly off a cd onto the individual machines.

actually i found something on the web that says to install office on a central server with "setup /a"
and then install off of the share drive. seems to be working now
