Ubuntu Server 8.04

[Fabio T. Leitao]

I am pretty sure it was designed that way in ubuntu

The place to keep variable files, accessible by many, and kept over
the boots, is the /var

About Filesystem Hierarchy Standard:

About the /tmp: http://www.pathname.com/fhs/pub/fhs-2.3.html#PURPOSE17

Also: http://tldp.org/LDP/Linux-Filesystem-Hierarchy/html/tmp.html

And about the /var: http://www.pathname.com/fhs/pub/fhs-2.3.html#PURPOSE31

Also: http://tldp.org/LDP/Linux-Filesystem-Hierarchy/html/var.html

I have also found this article which describes how to reconfigure the
persistence of the /tmp that might help you under Ubuntu
