I've read mixed opinions on whether it's feasible to be doing msktemp
on an NFS-mounted filesystem.  Is it possible to do this?

I use File::Temp to use mkstemp, but it's all the same, I get error
messages such as:

Error in tempfile() using /mnt/.XXXXX: Could not create temp file
/mnt/.hkATa: Operation not supported at (eval
14)[/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.7/perl5db.pl:628] line 2

Is this a matter of not having certain permissions set properly?
