Hey all,

Running Oracle 9.2.0.4 on Linux, I've noticed several files in /tmp owned by
the oracle user:

BEQ10202  DCE10202  DEC10202  I1S2  ISPX10202  ITCP10202  LU6210202
NMP10202  RAW10202  SPX10202  TCP10202  TCPS10202  US10202  VI10202
BEQ29871  DCE29871  DEC29871  I2S4  ISPX29871  ITCP29871  LU6229871
NMP29871  RAW29871  SPX29871  TCP29871  TCPS29871  US29871  VI29871

It would appear that these files may be related to networking based on the
filename prefixes, but I can't find anything about them in the docs nor
Metalink.  The only files with anything in them are the BEQ*, TCP*, and US*
ones, which coincides with the installed networking protocols, except for
the "US*" ones.  It appears that those contain some sort of dump or trace.
For example, the file TCPS29871 starts off with:

ntz.o:
00000000 d NZPKCS12_MAGIC_NUM
         U _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_
         U calloc
         U free
00000000 t gcc2_compiled.
         U lxmcpen
         U lxsCmpStr
         U memcpy
         U nldsfprintf
         U nldtotrc
         U nlepeget
         U nlhthfre
         U nlhthget
         U nlnvcrb
         U nlnvdeb
         U nlnvfbp
         U nlnvgap
         U nlpagbp
         U nlpagsp
         U nlpagvc
         U ntctst
         U ntpafind
00006d00 T ntzAllocate
00007040 t ntzCheckServerDN
00001120 t ntzConfigure
000024c0 t ntzConvertToNumeric
00006860 t ntzCreateCipherSpec
000008e0 t ntzCreateConnection

Anyone know what these might be?  Since this is my desktop, I'm really
tempted to just blow them away and see what happens, but if nothing happens
it won't be much fun.
