File permissions

Hi all,

I know this may seem simple but...

every night my /tmp dir permissions get changed to

drwxrwxrwt

and then the temp directory acts funny, i.e. files are there and you can
read them or write them but I can't, for example, print one unless I'm
root.

So.... what is the t permission, and what might be changing the
permissions on the tmp dir ( I imagine it's in a cron but I just don't
see it)

Thanks
