Quoting dick hoogendijk <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
Today I read that /tmp always is "noexec".
That should probably be on linux, because on my fbsd-6.1 box it's "rw"
and that's it.
Question: should I change /tmp to "rw,noexec" to be safer?

Dick,
Yes, noexec is a good this security wise. You could also add nosuid
depending upon what you may need /tmp for.
Most "kiddie scripts" will attempt to run items out of /tmp, by adding
noexec you prevent items from executing out of the applied directory.
Thanks,
- Russell
