There have been similar posts in the past about how to set up for multiple 
users.  Since I don't have that setup, I can only offer a couple vague 
suggestions, including that you search again for those posts.

You seem to be on the right track that the problem is access to these files 
and directories in /tmp.  If the files are there owned by you, another user 
can't come along and overwrite them.  I believe some of the suggestions in 
the past included things like making sure this stuff gets cleaned up in /tmp 
and/or giving each user their own /tmp ($TMP or $TEMP).


Good ideas.

Regards
