Nope, nobody external did anything bad.  My guess is I broke it, or
the original install left it in that state.  The box doesn't have
any normal users - it's used as a public DCC server and also runs a
BIND install for my DMZ.

This (ntop) was probably the first app I've run on the box that
needed to write to /tmp as a non-root user.

Best regards,

Dave
