Hi guys;

Is there any structure/program for scheduled works in Centos 5.1?(I want to empty my /tmp folder at decided hours...How can I do that?)

Thanks a lot...

you should be aware, there are files in /tmp with long time persistence, the only stuff thats absolutely safe to delete is files from before the last reboot. For instance, each SSH session opened to a server creates a directory in /tmp, this is needed as long as that session is in use.
