Anyway, /tmp is under / on most linux systems, /private/tmp sometimes; I've encountered one system where it linked to /var/tmp, too. Try: $ /bin/ls -ld /tmp and see what it shows. -l is long listing, which will show permissions, if it's symlinked, etc. -d will treat /tmp as a file rather than as a directory (which would show the contents of /tmp). Hopefully, they didn't delete the /tmp directory; but if they had, *many* things would probably stop working…. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
