I realize that in general, keeping files in /tmp is rather dangerous.
However, it seems that readhat/linux has generally left such files alone.
It seems a number of valuable files I placed in /tmp got removed. I'm
wondering what caused this? I don't see anything obvious in /etc/crond.d,
nor is /etc/sysinit (system had been rebooted a couple of times). Any
hint?
/etc/cron.daily/tmpwatch
By default, it looks at the *last access time*. If you hadn't accessed
the files recently, there were deleted by this script.
