Each user has a temporary tablespace & default tablespace.Given space
quota privileges a user will
create tables/indexes in the default tablespace if no
tablespace was specified on the create command.
Temporary segments will go to the user's temporary tablespace,
again given the needed quota allowance.
so to make sure temp segments get created only in temp tablespace issue: alter user x temporary tablespace temp; to all relevant users.
