Thanks for your feedback

I have written a small shell script, to track write access to the
'/etc/config' directory.
For this task I am using the inotify-tool package [1].
I am using the inotifywait tool to add the watchers [2] with a small
shell script and log them to the syslog.

If I change a 'uci' option with the  the 'uci' commands, then I get
create and write events for a temporary file in the '/etc/config/'
directory.
I didn't expect it to be like this.

For example, if I now change a file using the 'uci' command, a tmp file
is created under '/etc/config'.
Is this correct? Or do we have a problem there.

AFAIK tmp config are written in /tmp...

But if I read this correctly, what inotifywait does, then these are events that happen in '/etc/config' and not in '/tmp'.
I have not added a inotify to '/tmp'.

I already thought that these are temporary files.
