Well, it did appear to be a local issue.  I have set TMPDIR=/tmp for my
login, recompiled and reinstalled samba and that has fixed the problem.

Setting path = /tmp in the global section didn't work.  That just caused
the homes directory to be set to /tmp.

But, I am working now, so all is well.  Thanks!
