2008-12-04 02:26:15 David A. Harding None: statusexplanation Thanks for your suggestion. As you noted, Ubuntu doesn't create a partition for /tmp, and unfortunately binding and remounting the tmp directory doesn't prevent users from executing files. $ sudo mount -o bind /tmp /tmp $ sudo mount -o remount,bind,nosuid /tmp /tmp $ echo '#!/bin/echo' > foo $ chmod +x foo $ ./foo ./foo The mount manual page explains this: "Note that the filesystem mount options will remain the same as those on the original mount point, and cannot be changed by passing the -o option along with --bind/--rbind." I'm marking this bug as invalid because it's not something we can currently impliment. Thank You, -Dave
