	Thank you for this information. Yes, /tmp is writable.

	My problem is : access are sometimes definitively refused for random 
user who wants to log in diskless workstations.
	But if this banned user tries to connect to the single machine which 
mounts the fs in rw mode, it's work, and this solve immediately its 
problem on all the other stateless machines !? Strange...
