I want to call again your attention on the fact that when /etc/profile
sets
chmod 1777 /tmp
the simple user (NOT Admin. priv) receives
chmod: changing permissions of `/tmp': Permission denied
even if he starts the standard bash-shell without the XServer activated!
i.e. the problem remains for the simple user who does not use X.
thank you.
