given most admins habits of setting up scripts to clear out /tmp on a regular |
| 10 |
basis this is not the best place to put such information on "state". If you |
| 11 |
insist on using this dir then I would recommend something like: |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
ESYNC_STATE="$(mktemp -p /tmp/esync_state/esync_state.XXX)" || exit 1 |
| 14 |
|

By using the subdir you can ensure proper perms and security (depending on |
| 16 |
what user you are running the script as) and you stop _most_ /tmp cleaners as |
| 17 |
they won't kill subdirs. |
