I just reran the MST creation, and have a new MST file, tried to run it and
it will only run with the /q at the end, the n+ fail.  Also the /q seems to
work, but nothing happens.  No errors, but no install either.

Chad,
 
perhaps you misinterpretted... if you edit the termsrvr.mst, with
setuppro.exe to create a new transform... you must call your new transform
with same setuppro.exe.
 
As others have suggested keep the paths to these files as simple as
possible.

AH.  Our setup path changed, with a directory re-configure.  So now the MST,
probably won't work anymore.  I will create a new one.

Also note, there appears to be a relationship between the setup.exe used to
edit the transform and the setup.exe called with the transform.
 
So, if you used the custom installation wizard, called setuppro.exe to edit
the original termsrvr.mst, then you should use the same setuppro.exe to call
your newly transform to create it.  (hope that made sense)
 
So make sure that you are using the right setup file.

I am copying the mst from a server we installed Office 2000 on months ago,
over to the server I am trying to install onto.  Want to keep them all the
same.  I have tried it in the root of c: (c:\termsrvr.mst), and I also
placed it in another directory, MST (c:\mst\termsrvr.mst)  nothing working.

I just had the same issue installing MS Project 2000. This requires a
different MST though. I downloaded the termsrvr.exe and extracted it a temp
directory then copied to my citrix box and it failed with same errors you
reported. I then copied the termsrvr.exe to my citrix box and extracted the
termsrvr.mst file where I wanted it and the install was successful.
 
This doesn't make since but it worked. Hopefully this might work for you
also.

This is exactly as M$ documentation states...
 
P:\MSOffice\Office2000\SETUP.EXE TRANSFORMS="c:\termsrvr.mst"
 
Errors out, some default settings do not work in Terminal Server, etc., etc.
