You will also want to add the tmp directory to /etc/skel so new users get it created for them automatically. (I added "TMP=$HOME/tmp" and added TMP to the export list in .bashprofile, but you could also add files to /etc/profile.d to cover both the c and sh shell variants. OH yes, the /tmp directory does limit what other users can do to your files in /tmp. Mikkel -- Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons, for thou art crunchy and taste good with Ketchup!
