I ran /scripts/securetmp last week and ever since the /tmp directory gets loaded almost daily. I have to go in and manually clear out the /tmp/logwatch*/ files shown below to get it back to normal 2% or so (it shoots up to 100% sometimes).
How can I correct this?
root@server [/tmp]# cd logwatch.OJp30518
root@server [/tmp/logwatch.OJp30518]# dir
(null) ./
(null) ../
(null) autorpm
(null) clam-update
(null) cron
(null) exim
(null) http
(null) maillog
(null) messages
(null) pureftp
(null) rt314
(null) samba
(null) secure
(null) tac_acc
(null) up2date
(null) vsftpd
(null) xferlog
(null) yum
WHM shows it was 243MB total in size.
I did chmod -v 777 /tmp
My /etc/fstab is
LABEL=/ / ext3 defaults,usrquota 1 1
LABEL=/boot /boot ext3 defaults 1 2
none /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0
none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0
none /proc proc defaults 0 0
none /sys sysfs defaults 0 0
/dev/hda3 swap swap defaults 0 0
/dev/hdb1 /extra ext3 defaults 1 1
How do I correct this issue? Am I supposed to increase the partition for /tmp? If so please explain how as I've never touched it before. I know for a fact that it is specifically the /tmp/logwatch.OJp30518 filling up the /tmp partition.
