The discussion of /tmp is related to a question I have been trying to
answer recently: what is supposed to happen if 'domain all-local' is
specified in the client user options file. The "User's Guide and
Reference for UNIX" states that 'the default value for this option
is ALL-LOCAL, which specifies that all local file systems are to
be backed up'. This description seems to make it perfectly clear
that /tmp will be backed up if 'domain all-local' is specified for
a client. On the other hand, I have clients using that domain
specification, and queries on the server seem to be indicating that
/tmp is not being backed up for those clients. Am I missing somethning,
or is the manual written incorrectly?
