Subject:   ugidfw can prevent /tmp access?
Message-ID:  <E165A57C3B907FAE2B95DED5@utd59514.utdallas.edu>

If you used ugidfw to prevent temp access to only the range of uid's you 
presently have, I'm thinking this should prevent an attacker from using 
/tmp to get around permissions restrictions.  The question is, is there any 
kind of succint guide or list of what daemons need access to /tmp in order 
to function?  Or do all daemons need this?
