    I'm setting up a mail server at the momment, one of the things that I
    forgot to do was create /tmp as a separate partiton (/ = 2gb). There
    will be no user logins to the machine aside from admins and the only
    thing that it will run is qmail acting as a smarthost (vanilla qmail,
    no amavis or anything of the sort.)

    In your opinion is having /tmp on the same partition as / really THAT
    bad in this case? I'm just wondering cause some people have mentioned
    that its a major security risk. Really, I don't think it is for what
    this box is doing.
