Autzoo.1645 net.bugs.v7 utzoo!henry Thu May 6 13:57:28 1982 restor/dumpdir tempfiles Both dumpdir and the x subcommand of restor create temporary files with names of the form "rstXXXXXX" in the *current directory*. Moreover, they are very careless about cleaning up after themselves, which can lead to annoying junk files left around. It is the work of a moment to change them to put these files in /tmp instead. This may reduce their usability somehow under conditions of extreme system damage, but I can't visualize the circumstances. ----------------------------------------------------------------- gopher://quux.org/ conversion by John Goerzen of http://communication.ucsd.edu/A-News/ This Usenet Oldnews Archive article may be copied and distributed freely, provided: 1.
