In Fedora 11 the permissions assigned on the /tmp directory are: drwxrwxr-x
or owner =rwx group = rwx other = r-x If I create a file in /tmp directory as user leland, (eg touch test-tmp), I get the following: -rw-rw-r-- leland leland or owner = -rw leland group = -rw leland other = -r- I hope this helps.
