As root user, 'chmod 1777 /tmp'. This is the standard setting for /tmp. The 1 causes the "sticky bit" to be set, which prevents users from deleting files they did not create. Otherwise, allow anyone anywhere to have full authority for files in /tmp. HTH, -- Collins - Denver Area Gentoo stable plus kernel 2.6.1-mm2 -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
