>/tmp : Temporary files >/var/tmp : Temporary files preserved between system reboots
What does this have to do with having the tmp dir's as global read? Mandriva 2006 has a daemon (not sure what the name is) that checks the permissions of certain folders, in this case /var/tmp, usr/tmp, and /tmp and sets them to aforementioned settings if anything changes, so it's not like I'm out in left field with the permissions set up the way they are. -Christopher
