My original query was:

Do all DU applications which write to the /etc/passwd file
create a /etc/ptmp FILE? or /etc/ptmp DIRECTORY used as
a lock?

Thanks to:

Jose Amancio at gov.br
 and
norberto at com.pe

Since i dont use nis, the answer is:
The aplications create a /etc/ptmp FILE.

Have a nice weekend!.
