Hi, Is there a way to keeping my /tmp's cleaned out in FC?
Nothing in /tmp should be expected to survive a reboot. In fact, some people like to run /tmp as a tempfs (temporary file system) - only problem is, a tempfs can get full if you aren't careful.
But you can write an init script to delete it all at shutdown (or startup). Or just do what I do - ignore it, if space ever gets tight - then I boot into runlevel 3 and clear it (you don't want to clear it with X running)
Then what about tmpwatch? Mine runs daily with 720 hours as the parameter. Isn't this a problem?
