I've been reading too much BOFH
From a chat with a client of mine:
In the flesh, at the keyboard, and reading your email!
[12:28] David: hey man, i need u to save me
[12:28] Erik: What now?
[12:28] David: well
[12:28] David: my email
[12:28] David: or whatever
[12:28] David: cant write to the temp dir
[12:28] David: so its freaking out
[12:29] David: and my perl scripts wont run
[12:29] David: not sure whats going on
[12:29] David: Warning: open(/tmp/sess_52327b30f1b9d7dd1b5081287
[12:29] David: corse im just tellin u
[12:29] David: cause it looks like some permissions are messed up or something
[12:34] Erik: Interference from solar flares must have flipped bits on your permissions registry again. I'll degauss the mainframe when I have a chance. In the meantime, just wrap any important disks or hardware devices in aluminum foil to prevent ionized data from being uploaded to the server.
[12:35] David: Gotcha.
[12:48] David: OK Im safe.
In the flesh, at the keyboard, and reading your email!
