Hi

On my new server, I created a /tmp primary partition and mounted it with noexec,nosuid to avoid to have malicious executable on the /tmp directory.

However, I don't know if it is ok for Direct Admin to install and run with this configuration.

Do you have any information about?

Yes most of us run it that way. Should have no problems.

Thank you chatwizrd :) It is a good piece of news.

Most problems come from the fact that /tmp could contains shell scripts.
