Thanks for the link. It's a little over my head though.
No it isn't. The main thing you need is
mount -t tmpfs -o size=100M,mode=0755 tmpfs /var/www/www.example.com/cache
You would adjust size to be the size of the vmdisk you want, and adjust /var/www... to be /tmp. If you want this on boot, put the appropriate entry into /etc/fstab:
tmpfs /var/www/www.example.com/cache tmpfs size=100M,mode=0755 0 0
(same adjustments here)
Today, I found upd.pl in my tmp directory. The date was oct 09. I also found my /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow had been changed
with a user
of 0Profile added. I deleted the old files and restored those from backup. I ran my chkrootkit and installed mod_security.
SSH is not
running so I don't know how this happened.
Perhaps your system is not as simple as you think it is. ;-/

Thanks, Keith!
Guess I'd better brush up on my vi commands in case I have to boot from a rescue disk. :-)
Just guessing here, but to do this, I need to add:
tmpfs /tmp tmpfs size=100M,mode=0755 0 0 To my /etc/fstb and cross my fingers?
