So then we get something like...
.
.
drwxrwxrwt 5 root root 1024 Jan 13 15:16 tmp
.
.
Haven't tested it out on my home desktop and laptop yet, but my little test server here at the office let's me store my options in lynx instead of just crashing. A very positive step in the correct direction...
Thanks a bunch!

So, peoples...What are considered the "proper" write privileges on /tmp? Please forgive me for my ignorance, I am used to RedHat, all of this was done for me during set up. :)
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.
