Jonathan,
Allowing for differences between Linux and FreeBSD, of course....
On my FC1 system each user's OpenOffice files are located in
~/.openoffice/:

If you installed OO from a tarball directly into admin's home directory
rather than /usr/lib/openoffice, that might be the problem. The
following rpm packages are installed here:
openoffice.org-1.1.0-6.i386.rpm
openoffice.org-libs-1.1.0-6.i386.rpm
openoffice.org-i18n-1.1.0-6.i386.rpm
These install OpenOffice to the following directories:
# find / -name openoffice
/etc/openoffice
/usr/lib/openoffice
/usr/lib/openoffice/share/registry/data/org/openoffice
...
/usr/lib/openoffice/share/registry/res/en-US/org/openoffice
...
/usr/lib/openoffice/share/registry/schema/org/openoffice
/usr/lib/gnumeric/1.2.1-bonobo/plugins/openoffice
/home/doc/.openoffice/user/registry/data/org/openoffice
The contents of /etc/openoffice/autoresponse.conf might help:
[ENVIRONMENT]
INSTALLATIONMODE=INSTALL_WORKSTATION
INSTALLATIONTYPE=WORKSTATION
DESTINATIONPATH=<home>/.openoffice
OUTERPATH=
LOGFILE=
LANGUAGELIST=01
[JAVA]
JavaSupport=none
I hope some of this helps...
