In /etc/conf.d/bootmisc: # List of /tmp directories we should clean up clean_tmp_dirs="/tmp" # Should we wipe the tmp paths completely or just selectively remove known # locks / files / etc... ? wipe_tmp="YES" Set those variables to suit your needs. But one must ask, why? The whole point of /tmp is a scratch pad temp dir where files are not expected to survive past successive invocations of the same program and are definitely not expected to survive a reboot. If this is an issue for you, something is wrong with the code you run and you should reconfigure that code to use something other than /tmp. To the best of my knowledge bootmisc only ever runs in the first startup after a reboot. -- Alan McKinnnon alan.mckin...@gmail.com
