I am not sure that I understand why using one directory would be better than the other. Wouldn't the name clash still happen if /path/to/tomcat/temp was used instead of /tmp? As far as I know the core is not using a temporary directory for anything. If it needed to, the core would probably also use the java.io.tmpdir directory. /Nicklas ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
