12/21   does /csua/tmp gets cleaned whenever soda reboots?  Or via a cron
        job? How do we get some of these huge (and quite old) files off the
        system?
        \_ It gets cleared when it fills and someone gets bored enough to mail
           all the people who've forgotten they left their crap there.  But,
           since there's plenty of space there now, why do you care?
           \_ Some people just are curious. And just because there's plenty
              of space now doesn't mean there always will be.
                \_ an issue that will be delt with when it is the case
           \_ Sloppy sysadmining due to "lots of space" is no excuse.  A cron
              job that wipes files older than X days is trivial.  I care
              because this raises questions about how soda is admin'd in other
              ways.  I don't keep anything important here but soda itself is.
              \_ you are a moron. --aaron
                \_ actually a cron job that wipes files older than X days
                   that isn't a massive security hole is far from trivial -tom
                   \_ are you talking about linking files like /etc/passwd
                      into some link in /tmp?
                    \_ chown nobody:nobody /csua/tmp and run cron job as nobody.
                        \_ there are subdirectories.  chowning them all is
                           not really an option (and has its own security
                           problems).  -tom
                \_ Uh huh.  Because I'm not sloppy?  No one would sign something
                   that stupid.  You can't be aaron.
                   \_ This just proves it even more --pld
                \_ You're missing the point of /csua/tmp - stuff is supposed
                   to stay there longer than a couple of days, as long as
                   everyone plays nicely.
               \_  Having a cron job to wipe files older than X days is just
                   going to make the /csua/tmp diskhosers set up cron jobs to
                   touch their files every X-1 days.  It's a stupid idea. -ERic
                   \_ tom can easily figure out how to do it perfectly.
                     \_ tom already pointed out that it is difficult to do
                        properly.  get a clue.
