publishing office 2000 in server 2000

You have to do an administrative install on the 2000 server. Use setup /a to do that and put it in a folder that will be shared.

Next you need to have active directory working in order to create a software policy in the win 2000 server for theoffice 2000 install.

This is a link to the white paper on how to create software policy.
