I have this case, where it makes no sense to put such files in
Hello all again.
So what do we do? What is the cron/multi-user safe way to clean up regularly
/tmp ?
I checked the way bootclean.sh is implemented:
if cd /tmp [ `find . -maxdepth 0 -perm -002` = . ]
then
# First remove all old files.
find .

Tmpreaper probably does 'the right thing'
However, if you mount /tmp with noatime, I don't see how tmpreaper would
know what's safe to delete and what isn't. 'apt-cache show tmpreaper' says
that it goes by access time.

Do you guys clean regularly your /tmp ?
There's a nice script in /etc/init.d/bootclean.sh that does the job.
It is called from mountall.sh at boot time. And it is so nice that is reads the
configuration in /etc/default/rcS where you can set TMPTIME to the number of
days
you want hold old files

Yup. The tmpreaper package is great for that.

Yes, tmpreaper does the job. But here I was preteding to simply reuse the
bootclean.sh by simply making a symlink. Why installing an addittional

Maybe I am wrong and it is a bad idea using bootclean.sh in crond ?
