Greetings;

Regarding the instructions for "creating a
directory /usr/tmp and 
creating a link to it" and "to mount an MFS RAM
disk on /tmp, add the 
following line to /etc/fstab and then reboot or
type mount /tmp:" 
in "The Complete FreeBSD" book on pages 88 and
348 respectively, does 
anyone know if some combination of that's causing
permission 
conflicts in Gnome anyway?  It doesn't seem to
allow any file access 
through Gnome's file manager except as root,
otherwise giving  
error message like "cannot create temporary
command file!"

Thank you and have a great day,
