I am cross-posting this question on comp.os.ms-windows.setup and
comp.unix.admin. Hope it's not a FAQ.

In trying to recover pc client disk space, I am considering having
ms-windows (nfs clients) reference their TEMP directory to (nfs
mounted) the /tmp partition on the unix file server. I'm uncertain
as to whether this is a safe or efficient practice (what does ms-
windows use its TEMP dir for?). Also, does anyone know of contra-
indications from the server side? My impression is that /tmp is a
safe place for any system process to save data.

Also, for the windows clients, in order to protect some base program
manager .GRP and perhaps .INI files onto the file server in order to 
protect from accidental erasure of these files. The reason for wanting
to do this is to cut down on my time in repairing accidental damage, as
well as trying to ensure that any user can approach any pc and find
a basic set of available resources. Its all very well for users to
customize their environments, but too often well meaning twiddling has
resulted in damage requireing assistance.

thanks, forrest
