Microsoft installation fails on the SSHFS mounted drive

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
Install microsoft office (vers 03 or 07) to a drive that is a SSHFS mount
using dokanSSH

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Installation of the Microsoft Office (tried '03 and '07 versions).
What I see is that the installation fails, particularly when copying the
MSOCache files to the SSHFS mountpoint(drive).

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Library: dokan-0.3.9.1191 x86 2008/9/28
SSHFS: dokan-sshfs-0.1.9.1124 2008/6/10

Please provide any additional information below.
Microsoft office installation fails and complains of missing files.
Office installation process failed to copy the MSOCache files and the
installation would not continue.

Office installs to other local drives(C:\ etc). The SSHFS mount has
rw-access and other apps do install to it.

Seems that dokan is doing something that is preventing the office
installation. Any inputs would be appreciated.
