Hello,

you can not run OpenOffice on a different machine and still keep using the JODConverter. The converter needs to be able to start / stop OpenOffice processes which only works on the local system. Alfresco provides a sample remote OpenOffice configuration that can address an OpenOffice instance on a different machine, but that instance would need to be controlled differently (either as a background process on the remote machine or dynamically controlled instance).
