It would be really nice if SRSS would create those files someplace
other than in /tmp.  /var/run would be better, for example.  We
normally mount /tmp with the nosuid option as a security precaution;
this prevents the Sun Ray audio devices from working.  We also
normally remove day-old files in /tmp to prevent users from using
it for storage of files.  Clever users could create directories
called SUNWut to get around this procedure.
